What stops us taking action towards our own happiness?
Often, it’s not that we don’t know what would make us happy…
It’s that we hesitate at the point of choosing it.
Making an active judgement call not to move in the direction your intuition is nudging you towards is still a decision. It’s a choice to stay exactly where you are.
So what’s stopping you?
Is it the fear of hurting others?
- You'd rather hurt yourself instead?
The fear of the unknown?
The worry that it won’t work out?
The fear of what others will say?
(Who gives a crap!)
Now weigh that up against doing nothing... Staying stuck right where you are...
If you take a chance and it doesn’t work out, you’re still further forward than where you started, as you've learned and you’ve shifted energy.
You’ve moved forward and once you take that first step, it genuinely does get easier.
The challenge is that when we’re stressed, overwhelmed or constantly in our heads, clarity feels out of reach. Our nervous system is busy protecting us, BUT not guiding us forward.
This is where reflexology can help. By deeply relaxing the body and calming the nervous system, we soften out of survival mode. Space opens up. The noise quietens and in that calm, you can feel where your heart is pulling you.
Not rushing.
Not forcing.
In the next fortnight, contemplate your next move from a place of balance rather than fear.
Don’t stay stuck in unhappiness because you fear the unknown more.
Take a chance and trust YOU.
Stop betraying and doubting yourself for others..
