Know Your Soul Medicine
Do you know your Soul purpose? Do you know why you have chosen to be here, in this moment in eternity, to journey in the terrestrial body in the time, the place and the people environment that you are in?
Know What Your Soul Needs to be Grounded and Renewed
Do you know what your soul medicine is? What it is that “grounds you”, revives you, restores your energy and renews your heart and mind – this is medicine for the soul and can change your whole world through the smell of a flower or the words of a song. What’s in your Soul medicine cupboard? What is the Knowing about yourself that you have yet to remember?
In our busy life – knowing ourselves seems to be a challenge. Work, family, and other commitments consume our time and energy, taking time for ourselves almost seems like “wagging it” from those responsibilities. To know ourselves, what restores our energy and our joy for life can be a very beneficial to the totality of your life. Balance in your life force brings harmony to your life journey.
Take the time to consider, what is it that brings you a sense of peace, of wellbeing? Is it a certain type of music, a place to bring to mind, a specific smell? Consciously connect with that. Consider ways to carry that with you all day, perhaps a photo or song on your phone, or a bottle of a special natural oil. When you are in need of “taking a deep breath”, reminding you yourself of your own truth, calming yourself then these “soul medicines” will be close to hand.
Do you know what is your Element – the Chinese speak of Five Elements, Water, Earth, Fire, Wood, Metal, others philosophies include Wind and Spirit. Other considerations are Seasons, or certain gems and crystals. Have you considered what your element, season or gem is? What of your animal totem. Animal energies symbolically tell us a lot about ourselves.
You are valuable, respect yourself by honouring time with yourself, to get to know your own truth of what heals, enlivens, strengthens and reminds you of your true worth. What helps you to remember, and to know, to love yourself. Consider what brings you health and wellbeing. Does going to the beach, sitting under a tree, watching a fire or feeling the warmth of the sun make you feel more “grounded”? What is your season? You may find that you have a seasonal body clock, that there is one season that brings you alive, another where you struggle to stay focused or motivated.
When you know more about yourself, you are able to recognise what de-energises, and what energizes you. You will be able to map your body clock and manage your life choices around these times. For instance holidaying in your energy cycle, and not taking on new jobs, residence or relationships in your low energy cycle. You may expend a lot of time and energy on others, work, or recreation, but none of these will bring wholeness to your Life Force in the way that being in touch, and in love, with your own Soul will.
It is important to know how to love and nurture your Soul.
More importantly, do you KNOW your Soul
Do you know your Soul purpose? Do you know why you have chosen to be here, in this moment in eternity, to journey in this terrestrial body, in the time, the place and the people environment that you are in?
Do you know your Soul Truth?
Can you speak with passion, responsibility and ownership, as well as conviction about your own Life Force journey. Often the reason a person feels their life has no purpose or direction, or that others are influencing or controlling their life, is because they have no clearly defined knowledge of why they are on this planet at this moment in time. A client one once said to me "My life is a mess, I keep getting it wrong, I don't know what the Universe wants from me". My reply was "The Universe wants nothing from you. It is your choice to BE or not to BE, no one is "out there" pulling your strings" The power of YOU in this moment in the eternal existence is that YOU CHOOSE. You choose how you Observe life, others and most importantly, yourself. You choose whether you see enlightenment, empowerment and potentialities, and that you are in control; or, if you see yourself as a type of universal puppet playing out a predetermined script written by some great unknown who delights in human pain and suffering. If you believe you are a puppet there is probably not much to be gained by you continuing to read these meditations. If you even just hope you are not, if you are not even quite at the point of believing that you have a Soul purpose, a reason to exist, keep reading, keep thinking, and allow yourself and your Soul to remember what it knows to be true .
Get to know your Soul, and as you do, be true to it, every moment, every circumstance, every NOW in the eternity of NOWs we call the present, past and future.
