We’re not meant to stay small. Every cell in our bodies, every strand of DNA, is coded for expansion.
When you’re grounded in the energy of expansion, riding the wave of your transformation can be exciting and magical. You feel yourself evolving. You know that you are different on the inside, and others experience you differently too.
But what if your life or business doesn’t match who you are on the inside? That’s when things can get messy. You may find yourself wondering why things feel stagnant, or why the same energetic patterns keep showing up, even though you have made lots of inner shifts.
Most people stay stuck and misaligned because they don’t know how to move from where they are to where they want to be. They believe that if they are not clear, they are not ready. But the truth is, you and your soul planned for your expansion long before you came. You’re being Divinely guided.
Here are five common signs you’re being called to expand:
1.Everything Feels “Off”.
You wake up one day and “suddenly” the things that lit you up don’t. You can’t shake the feeling, and it lasts for weeks, or even months. Whether it’s your clothes, your job, your marriage, your friendships or your business, there’s a nagging sense of “this isn’t me anymore.”
2.You’re Drowning in Ideas and Downloads.
Your deepest soul wisdom keeps pouring through you, at all hours of the day and night…and most of it doesn’t make any sense. You know it’s been Divinely given, and you feel pressure to figure out what it all means, fast.
3.Your Physical Body Is Out of Sync with Your Inner Self.
It’s as if your body has not “caught up” with your spiritual unfolding. You’re not sleeping well, your digestion is compromised, your energy is low and it’s hard to focus.
4.Your Inner GPS Is Spinning.
Your personal practices are not working as well as they used to. You may feel restless. Not fully present. Unable to meditate, journal or to connect with your Guides. No matter what you do, you can’t tap into your own wisdom reliably. You feel a bit lost, like you’re in a dark cave without a flashlight.
5.You Have a Burning Desire to Speak Your Truth.
Your ability to see through people’s BS (others, and your own) is heightened. But your words aren’t flowing freely, and you may feel like you’re not being heard. You worry that your family, friends, and professional peers won’t “get” you. And even though you know how to protect your energy, you’re getting depleted more often and more easily.
Now that you have more insight into what’s really going on, here’s some simple strategies you can use to stay anchored throughout the journey. You can come back to these tools again and again as a foundational practice, or to put things in perspective.
Recognize Where You Are In The Cycle
Are you just awakening to the whispers of your soul? Been unfolding for a while? Coming out the other side of things? Write about where you are in your journal weekly and celebrate your progress.
Release The “Shoulds”
As things unfold, you’ll find yourself in unchartered territory. No worries! You don’t have to follow your “shoulds” or “have to’s.” When you don’t know, come back into your heart and allow yourself to be curious.
Give Your Physical Body What It Needs
Your nervous system needs time to reset so you can evolve organically. Give yourself permission to rest. Stay well hydrated and nourished. Create more space for personal reflection. And most importantly, be gentle with yourself.
Tune Yourself Daily
Tuning is a tool that puts your frequency adjustment in your own hands. It’s the simple process of listening to the pure frequencies of tuning forks to increase electrical flow through your body. In just a few minutes a day, you can release the energetic blocks in your electrical system and find your “sweet spot” …that place of inner knowing where you are in your center. Where nothing can rock you. The place from which you flow, and where your magic happens.
What About My Business?
If you’re a spiritual entrepreneur, it’s also important to attend to the energy of your business. Are you feeling any energetic ripples? Sometimes those waves are reflected back to you in a change in your revenue, in your clients, or your team.
Other times, it’s an internal experience. You may feel disconnected from your business and why you started it in the first place. You’re not excited about your offers, even though clients are getting amazing results. You are craving an elevated level of conversation with your peers. Or things are going smoothly, but it does not feel good. You want something different.
If you’ve experienced any of this, please be patient with yourself. You don’t have to burn your business down. Instead, create space to re-evaluate. A simple way to do that is to make a list of all your projects and marketing activities. Which ones are working and bring in revenue consistently, with little effort on your part? Which ones are time, money, or energy drains? Hit “pause” on anything that’s not bringing in money with ease for the next 90 days. Then use that free time to recharge and go inward, so you can start to reconnect to yourself.
It’s your nature to expand. Are you ready to trust your evolution? Sit back, relax, and allow it.
