Simple Contemplations - Shadow Work & Resting

SHADOW WORK

You can only run for so long before you have to stand and face what hunts you,

what haunts you.

Otherwise you will forever be running away from the direction of a better you,

just on the other side of your shadow.

MEDITATION CONTEMPLATION: Sit and consider what is it in your life right now that you are not allowing yourself to face fully. Spend time investigating whatever comes up for you. Stretch into the space that it opens up - there is so much potential for growth, healing and release in looking at something directly that you have been avoiding.

RESTING

Today I give myself space without need or expectation of output .

Today I give myself space just to sit.

Just to be.

Simply.

MEDITATION CONTEMPLATION: We live in a world that pushes us to value constant output and productivity. This can put us in an ungrounded state of being that is not fully connected to the natural rhythm of Gaia. Allow yourself time and space in your day to relax without any guilt or pressure to produce an outcome, activity, work task, chore or creation. Even if it feels uncomfortable at first, allow yourself to sit with it and relax past any discomfort, deepening into the space of relaxation that is always there waiting for you to tap into it. Spend enough time in this state to allow your nervous system to power down and reset.
