Do you have something you’ve talked about doing for years that you just haven’t done?
It may be repairing a favourite dress that’s been sitting at the back of your closet.
Or signing up for a Spanish class, or taking guitar lessons so you can play that acoustic guitar you admired, that your friend gave you before they moved.
There are some things that we keep putting off, even though, it keeps calling us again and again.
I mean, there are some things we lose interest in… and the energy just isn’t there any more. And there are other things that stay there, patiently waiting for us.
I believe these things are truly on our path as important parts of our spiritual journey.
I finally registered for Belly Dancing classes in January. I’m really enjoying the class too.
I came across a message to my teacher I had sent her 10 years ago about the time when she first invited me to try a class (which I did).
I liked the class then, but I was full of excuses (this was just before I dove into my spiritual journey). I told myself so many stories of why I couldn’t do it.
And yet, I knew this was still calling me.
2 years ago I bought a hip scarf- one fo the pretty scarves with coins sewn on to it, to wear around your hips when you belly dance. 2 years ago!!! And I finally got to use it 8 weeks ago.
I believe there are many reasons why these important experiences keep calling to us. Not only are the significant experiences on our soul’s path, they are also a sign post on how to quickly clear something that is blocking us. When we take action and move through this experience, it is like we can move up a level in our life.
For me, I believe Belly Dancing is to help me embrace my Goddess Energy, open up my lower chakras (Root, Sacral and Solar Plexus). I believe that it is an opportunity for me to be seen, and confidently express myself with my body.
Why do we wait to do things?
Stories.
Old beliefs.
When we clear away the clutter of stories that don’t serve us, we can step into these things that are calling us to live more bravely and authentically. We can live more intentionally and in alignment with who we are. Things and experiences that keep calling to us, are like invitations from the universe to use that thing or experience to clear away the energy of the old beliefs, and reprogram new beliefs of what can be possible.
What is something that is calling to you, constantly?
What obstacles do you feel it can help you move through?
If you’d like to live more intentionally, consider joining us for our next Intention Board workshop.
