SHOW NOTES: Episode 18

Today I am talking about the concept of just showing up and meeting yourself where you are. What I think is so important is to just simply acknowledge where you are and notice that whatever is coming up, whatever those emotions are, or however you're feeling, is totally valid.

All too often in this journey, you may be told you shouldn't be feeling the way you are or that you should just relax more or be more positive. You may even get told that you should just stop thinking about it, and what I'm here to say is: nope. I want you to meet yourself where you are. So, how do we do this? 

Step one is truly to drop the judgment. This judgment comes from others, but more importantly, what I'm talking about is dropping the judgment that you're feeling for yourself. Come to yourself, meet yourself where you are, drop the judgment of what you're feeling, how you're showing up, what you're going through, whatever it is, it's okay. Come from this place of compassion.          

Choose what works for you. How can you meet yourself where you are, without judgment and with compassion? How can you just simply get curious about where you are and what's going on? Ask yourself some questions. Questions are seriously the best thing you can do to just gain some awareness. 

The goal here is just simply awareness, nothing else. Once you get to true and authentic awareness from a loving, compassionate place, so much healing comes from that space.
