Trust Without Knowing
filed in Finding Soul on Mar 11, 2009
Everywhere I go whether it is the super market, the gym, church service, the gas station, I hear the anxiety of others expressing their fears of the unknown future given the economic times. I certainly have my own fears, with all of the changes that have occurred over the last few years for me. And I know, from first hand experience, that those of you that are in the divorce process, or at the end of the settlement and starting your new life as a single person, there is a great deal of anxiety. The anxiety of being alone, the anxiety of the unknown future, and the need to rebuilt a new foundation of security for yourself and your children. With this comes fear which is held in the mind, body and in the heart.
I have a ritual ,of going to a special place near the ocean and taking time, to do some intuitive/prayer work to ask for guidance. I am very blessed to be able to be by the ocean which helps me tune into a deeper part of myself. Yesterday morning,I went asking for help on trust. In my own body, and mind I feel my fear and anxiety of the unknown with many decision ahead of me. Prayer work for me, is putting myself in a quiet environment and going deep into the silence within, by closing my eyes and focusing on my third eye, the space between your eyebrows. And when my mind quiets down and my body softens I feel myself in touch with a silence within myself. At that point I give myself the intention to go even deeper into the silence. It is here where my mind becomes calmer. I then just listen with an open and clear mind. Listening is one of the the most difficult things for most of us to do. It takes practice and patience to sit and listen without an agenda. At times you will not hear anything, at other times you may receive some guidance.
Let me share with you what I heard as I listened deep within myself.
l. Trust that there is a net below you, even though you cannot visually see one.
2. Trust that if you go forward and stop your fears you will feel more alive than ever.
3. Trust that even though all you have known recently is suffering, that joy can occur in the next second.
4. Trust that your body, heart and soul knows how to accept and receive the grace of joy.
5. Trust that your personal history of disappointments, hurts, emotional wounds can be erased and transformed.
.6. Trust that if you trust, all will be fine.
