Many of us who chose this lifetime to awaken, to take on embodied enlightenment, arranged to create a lifestyle, probably unbeknownst to us on a conscious level, so we could devote ourselves more fully to that awakening process.

That lifestyle may have involved government assistance, the financial support of a spouse or family member, or perhaps some of us had windfalls or family inheritances that kept us afloat.  and in so doing, we didn’t need to work for a period of time or worked just part time.  We knew it was imperative to have minimal distractions and a full-time job or career or family could pose a major distraction.

So our basic needs were met and we could more easily devote ourselves to taking the inner journey, which left many of us physically and emotionally exhausted!  We needed time and energy to devote to ourselves and our bodies.

But now many of us are feeling the restrictions of that very support, not that we didn’t feel them before but we were willing to compromise our freedom.  The restrictions may have come in the form of control by those providing the support.  There may have been a control on our actions, behaviors or even on our finances.  Some government assistance programs limit the amount of money one can earn on their own while on the program.  As we expand our consciousness that type of relationship can become a liability.  And that is because our soul is not about limitations or restrictions.  Our soul will not compromise its freedom.

Now that doesn’t mean to abandon the assistance.  But it will become more and more uncomfortable as we integrate our soul into our body and our life.  Our soul sees the bigger picture for us.  What feels just o.k. or acceptable to your human self will feel like a limitation to your soul.

Your current support may be limiting your abundance.  If you allow it, your soul can create the energy for grand abundance.  So much so that you no longer need to depend upon these limited sources.  But it requires a deeper trust in your soul and in the benevolent nature of life.  It requires a bigger vision of what is possible.  We have been taught that we need to figure it out and set goals and follow a linear path to having money.  Don’t restrict the way the abundance can come to you.  We have been taught that it comes in only through certain avenues, whether it’s a job, career, an endeavor or winning the lottery.  Let all of that go and allow yourself to feel into the type of lifestyle you would enjoy.  Don’t muddy it up with how, when or what ifs.

If those resistant thoughts come in, be aware of them but don’t give into them.  If you do, stop, take a break and come back later to your dreamscape.  And rest assured, that dream is as real as the ground you are standing on.

It’s amazing how many restrictions we have put on ourselves as humans.  They would fill up a thousand football stadiums!  Per human!  Is it any wonder we have been living rather mediocre lives?

All the old patterns of not feeling worthy, of believing we have to work hard and struggle are leaving.  Also the ones that tell us we have to somehow change before we can receive our heart’s desires.  We have been in survival mode for eons of time, because we haven’t had the benefit of co-creating our reality with spirit in such an intimate way.

Again it is o.k. to be where we are, and to honor our ability to create these temporary support systems.  There is no need for judgement around them.

We are in the process of allowing our soul to co-create with us like never before.  We are trusting more and more in this dynamic relationship, even in the face of illness and other difficulties.  And for many of us, we are beginning to see tangible results of that trust, as we begin to allow ourselves to feel into a joy we haven’t felt in a very long time.  Things like worry and fear are beginning to take a back seat in our everyday lives.

It takes a very unique human to allow this process, to allow their lives to be so disrupted on the outside and the inside.  But we wanted to experience in this lifetime a freedom that only our soul could provide. This process may seem endless, but there is an end point and it is sooner than later.  That point where you integrate with your soul and life does become a joy.

Continue loving yourself just as you are as best as you can.  And your soul magnifies that back to you in its unconditional love and support.
