Your discomfort is a Blessing

How can your discomfort be a blessing, you ask?
Painkillers are western medicine's way of helping us ignore our deeper desires.  Our bodies are telling us something and we are not listening to the call.

You are not finished finding you!  You are so much more incredible and amazing and fabulous than you realize.  Of course, you may be afraid to know your true greatness.   Maybe there has been too much evidence to the contrary.  Maybe you've been playing it safe or trying to stay in control.  Maybe you believe your lifeboat is falling apart and you are treading water as fast as you can just to stay afloat.  Maybe you don't believe in the possibilities for you and your life.  Maybe this is so ingrained within you that the real truth is just beyond your conscious knowing.
Meanwhile, your body is sending you these signals to encourage you to change something in your life in order for you to fulfill your true purpose in life.  But you push it away with medicine or alcohol or food or television or shopping or gossip or whatever else!  We all do it.  And that is ok for now.   But what if you were to stop, take a breath, and listen....

The real deal is this:  on the other side of all the pain and disappointment, IS complete acceptance and love and comfort and joy waiting for you!  With only your five senses as your guide, you cannot experience it.  You have built walls with faulty, outdated thinking.  Change your thinking about your life and yourself and you CAN release the walls you have placed around you.  This internal prison holds in your light.  The light that lives within you. Tear down the walls of fear and insecurity and let your light shine bright for all to see!  It is time to GLOW!

Exercise:  Imagine what it would be like.  Try exploring ideas and options just in your mind.  Take a few moments each day to dream a little about what you could be if you were told every minute of every day how special you truly are.  If you knew in no uncertain terms that you could have or be absolutely anything, what would it be?  Stop yourself when you start analyzing and thinking about 'how'.  Just think about 'who' and 'what'.  
What would you be?  Who would you be?  Who would you serve? Why? Why? and keep asking Why?

mantra:  ~ I am limitless ~
