I sent this out to my VIP mailing list subscribers yesterday, and felt called to also share this message of hope and renewed focus with you today.
My aunt jokingly used to say: "If you show up early and patiently wait in the front row, when the show starts...you get to see everything first!"
THE QUIET EXHAUSTION HANGING OVER THE COLLECTIVE
A quiet, ominous sense of exhaustion has been weaving through our collective consciousness in recent times. In my sessions with clients, I increasingly come across hearts and minds struggling to keep up with a co-created reality that now seems too loud, too fast, too threatening, and seemingly without an "off" switch.
I also find many people I work with are currently living with unrecognized trauma from the sustained uncertainty of recent years: the pandemic, political upheaval, economic unrest, and the rise of algorithms, doom-scrolling, and AI technology.
If you have also been feeling overwhelmed, or the need to just "keep your head down," play it safe, and put your life on hold, you are not alone, and you're completely justified given the times. However, the "lower my gaze" strategy may not be the recommended approach right now.
Your current exhaustion is simply your soul seeking sanctuary to protect your inner light. But profound grace is at work. We are being called to stop looking at our feet only, but to also lift our gaze towards the horizon. We are powerful spiritual beings in human form. We can chew gum and walk at the same time.
SO, THERE IS MORE TO THE STORY, AFTER ALL...
Since late 2018, I sensed a major global upheaval looming. I had a sense it would be mainly economic, but I felt the origins would be political. I also had a vision of international conflict, or some sort of intense civil unrest. But when the pandemic arrived like a "thief in the night," I thought, well, I must have misinterpreted the whole thing. I even wrote about this in a blog post back in April 2020.
But now, it seems the turmoil I foresaw is unfortunately playing out, after all. I was way ahead of the time (a recurring 'bad habit' throughout my life). But, the good news is that the outcome has always been vividly clear from day one: Much better times lie ahead once the worst is over. This I have always known.
I said it back in 2021 in another blog post, and I am still saying it: The end is in sight. A new epoch, a time of great joy, celebration, abundance and amazing adventure is looming on the horizon. Be wise and get ready.
Since day one spirit has been reminding me that we live in a benevolent universe, and while the pendulum is still swinging wildly now, it will come to rest eventually. Our co-created reality will find a new equilibrium for the greater good. The universe always returns to balance.
But this is taking time. Yes, a lot of time. Shifting a zeitgeist is like turning the Titanic. Humanity has always been its own worst enemy. So, for now, further patience and perseverance is needed, because things are bound to get even more messy, before it gets better. For what it's worth, I do sense that we will begin to see a significant shift for the better towards the end of this year. Watch this space.
WHAT YOU DO NOW...MATTERS MORE THAN YOU THINK!
That said, what you do in the meantime matters a lot! You can either stay under that muddy rock and wait out the rest of the storm, or quietly help the rest of us to keep building the foundation for our next big chapter, individually and as a collective.
Many of us have already lost precious time in recent years with everything that's been going on. Let us not sacrifice any more. Ain't nobody got time for that! Promise yourself that when the dust settles and the smoke finally clears, you will be hitting the ground running.
Depending on your current circumstances, here are a few ideas to help you stay sane, and get ready:
🔹Get out of the "flip-flopping" loop. Choose your mindset deliberately. Set your intention. Decide what your outlook and attitude will be going forward, and commit. Stick to your guns.The truly empowered are masters of their own minds, regardless of external chaos or what everyone else wants to believe.
🔹 Protect your nervous system. Reduce your screen time, and curate what you consume. If you feed your mind chaos and panic, your body will stay under attack. It's time to get out of the fight, flight and freeze funk...and step into a more empowered state of forward motion.
🔹Shrink your battlefield. Focus only on the next controllable baby step. Take it one day at a time, as long as you just do a little something every day. This isn't toxic positivity; it's self-empowerment.
🔹Maintain your divine dignity. Small daily rituals like sleep, sunlight, wholesome food, prayer, meditation, journaling and real-world socializing (not online!) protects your sanity, and your humanity.
🔹Turn uncertainty into service. Even the smallest concrete act of kindness, like a smile or holding the door, breaks the spell, snaps you out of the trance and reconnects you to your purpose and path.
🔹Build a "reality check circle." Find a few grounded people who keep it real and keep each other honest. Check in regularly. But avoid indulgent echo chambers, and the doom prophets and fear-mongers.
🔹Expand your toolkit. Chaotic, revolutionary times reward the adaptable. Choose one new skill or offering that will expand your future options: tech fluency, AI proficiency, financial literacy, a practical trade, a credential, a portfolio, an art or craft, a business start-up plan.Start working on it today, and build it steadily. Not only will you be better prepared, it shifts the energy of what you attract.
🔹Run a two-track plan. Yup, double-dipping for now is totally allowed! Chill out when you must, conserve your energy, and protect your peace, but don't crawl under a muddy rock. Consistently also work at positioning yourself for the future. Keep building with intention. Keep that flame going and make sure you will be ready for the new era ahead.
Finally, I leave you with this quote from my book, Divine Living:
"You are one thing only. You are a Divine Being. An all-powerful Creator. You are a Deity in jeans and a t-shirt, and within you dwells the infinite wisdom of the ages and the sacred creative force of All that is, will be and ever was."
Now, you know everything.🙏🏼
