How to transition like a Goddess
A Goddess in my Tribe asked me this question recently:
“I’m going to be in a lot of transition for the next few months.
What are some good ways of making this transition easy on my mind, spirit, and my body?”
Because we're all -- ALWAYS -- in transition, I felt this was an important question to answer more broadly.
We are all constantly in transition.
Think about it -- nothing in life, in the Universe, stands still.
It's all evolving, shifting, flowing, turning, growing -- or burning out.
So, while my advice to you below is especially necessary and important when you're finding yourself navigating some tougher or especially unknown terrain -- I recommend ALL of these for a daily practice.
In every of life's transitions.
1. Create a MORNING (important that it's morning) Soul Practice.
It can take on any flavor you'd like, but make it like a good friend that you look forward to spending time with every morning. Choose rituals that nourish your soul, create a high-vibration for your day, and encourage you to remain open.
2. I'll reinforce that last bit: Remain open.
Being in the space of transition means that anything --- ANYthing --- is possible for you. How incredibly in-powering and gorgeous that is!!! See if you can focus on tapping into that energy, the energy of possibility, rather than trying to grab onto (and grapple with) driving to a specific outcome. Because we don't actually HAVE control, and that only ever causes us anxiety. Staying open allows us to breathe, move, and feel ease in our transitions and our journeys.
3. Decide how you want to FEEL --- and let that be your guiding force, your north star.
That doesn't mean choosing some low-hanging-fruity, just-for-now feelings, like, "I want to feel good," and then hedonistically approaching your journey. Rather, how do you want to feel that is aspirational; long-term; and deeper than surface-level?
For example, when I left my last relationship and was transitioning in my love-life path, I knew that I wanted to feel: Light (not weighted down, heavy, dark, or depressive). Held (as in safe and met). And Expansive (I know that I have a deep need for exploration --- and while my man doesn't go in for all of the self-exploration and woo-woo and self-improvement work I do, he creates a grounded, safe and understanding space and energy that allows ME free rein explore for myself).
I'd love to hear how you're going to implement these in YOUR transition (read: your life) --- comment below, or email me!
