Are you feeling like your current reality is no longer working for you?

Are you wondering if there's a new reality that is on the horizon for you?

If so, that might feel very exciting. And it might also feel terrifying.

A new reality. What does that even mean? We can't imagine it because it's a reality that doesn't yet exist. And yet part of you, maybe you're Wise Adult self knows that what you're living in is no longer acceptable, and certainly not sustainable.

So you realize it's time to make a change.

You may have known that it was time to make a change for a long time.

But when we truly understand it to our core that the kind of change we know we need to make is a profound one, we may feel stuck. We may feel paralyzed. We may feel confused. In fact, maybe even a little crazy.

That makes sense, doesn’t it? We only know what's real and true based on what we have already experienced or what we can imagine, and if we don’t have a reference, if it feels unknown, our Protector part is going to try and give us something to hold onto.

Of course, the more we keep using the same solutions for the same dilemmas, the more we reinforce the exact reality we no longer want.

We all know the Einstein quote, “We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”

Ugh. What to do?

We know things need to change, but the new reality doesn't exist yet, at least not yet.

Can you imagine that your new reality, already exists in its potential? Can you imagine it always has. In fact, I bet we can agree that we each have created the reality that we exist in right this moment.

Yet even if we agree that potential always exists, and that we have indeed created the reality we are living in, it still can be unclear how to create and manifest something better.

What do I need to do?

Certainly, stepping into our Wise Adult is the first step; I don’t want my Protector to create any further chaos (although I will invite her to come along for the ride).

Then it is about making changes. Doing things differently, even if you're not sure exactly what the new reality is going to look like.

But it’s not about thinking about change. It’s about aligning with the feeling of it.

What? Ok, try this.

Can you feel with and in your heart the change you want?

It’s not in your brain. Not even in your mind.

It’s in your heart.

No, it’s not gooey, it’s not sugary, it’s not sentimental.

It’s the true, deep, experience of Love.

It’s somewhere deep within the experience of all us.

It is what we are all made of.

It’s what you feel when you hold a new-born. Or see a magnificent sunset. Or are moved by a beautiful piece of music. Or can experience deep in another’s eyes.

Can you connect with the hearts of your significant people, whether your partner, or anyone else in your life that you want to connect with?

I know. That's really hard when you feel vulnerable and are on autopilot most of the time.

Running around in a world that necessitates autopilot. We turn it on in order to keep moving, to keep flowing, to keep our lives on track, get to work, make sure the kids get to school, make sure we have the things we need in order to feel ok, safe, included, and not so vulnerable.

Yet if you are reading this, I imagine you feel the pull to slow down.

Slow down…slow down…slow down…and be still.

Be still.

Can you? Be still?

More challenging is to be still with another.

In the stillness, when you listen and feel into to your heart and the hearts of those around you, with persistent practice, the next steps will be guided.

For you, for me, and for all the rest, together.

I think it has to be a new way, a different way than how we have been doing things up until this point.

To make it a point to listen with and to our hearts together.

I'm feeling on the edge of a new reality. Are you?

Let’s all invite our loved ones to join us in this new reality.

Let’s create it together.
