self care – Jewel Lea Grant

Are you tired of being consumed by thoughts of self doubt, not good enough, confusion, overwhelm, wanting more out of life, forcing solution, not knowing how to get what you want, missing something but not knowing what it is? That is known as the human condition. There is also a beautiful experience of being hu-man. We have many wonderful experiences as a “man” and “wo-man”. We desire more of these wonderful experiences.

There is a greater part of us that is alive, clear, expansive and peaceful. It is the HU in human. We have been conditioned to ignore this power and awareness within. We have been conditioned to put our focus on developing our self concept and our lives to match the expectations of the environment we grew up in and the world’s expectations at large.

We try to be the best somebody we can be. Our effort has or hasn’t paid off. We eventually realize there is something missing. What is the missing piece? The missing piece is the awareness of yourself as Soul. We are and have a powerful force within us that is imperishable, eternal, nameless and grounded in immense joy. Joy is the expression of who we are as spiritual beings. It is the HU in human. We are woman/man AND we are Soul. We are eternal essence of Be-ing.

So how do we tap into the truth of who we are? We begin by recognizing the Self that is aware of the movements of our inward and outward lives at the same time. Notice experiences, thoughts and feelings that come and go. Begin by residing in this place of awareness. Observe. It is a detached and neutral place inside that is infinite, peaceful, expansive and joyful. It is a process of laying down the mask of self concept and releasing the ego strategies of making life the way you think it should be. But rather trusting grace as you marinate in the awareness of who you are as Spirit. Soul Awareness is a moment to moment practice in the beginning. It is a process of recognition of your Self as the Truth. There is no wrong way of being with your Self. The important piece is to BE with your SELF as often as possible.

The more I practiced Soul Awareness through my Doctorate in Spiritual Sciences the more my life changed in a way that supported me and my spiritual insights. Today, I experience things, people, jobs, problems, concerns, fears, and doubts dissipating into nothingness in which they came as I practice Soul Awareness. The more I reside in the presence of my Be-ing the more I am aware of how insignificant my ruminating thoughts of the past and future are. It has become easier to access and reside in Truth. It is a huge gift to know that I AM. The Kingdom of God is within. We all reside within the Kingdom of God and our inherent nature is Royal and Divine. It is our mission to expose this Truth to ourselves and others.

I have been challenged with a great loss 3 years ago and today I understand that the “loss” was a release of a relationship that did not align with my Heart or Spirit. As heartbreaking as it was to leave a lifestyle, my home and community, I am aware of how divine it has been for providing me with a more kind and accepting relationship with my Self. It has been a powerful circumstance that has open me up to know my SELF. It has strengthened me in ways I could only have hoped for. I walk freer today as the result of allowing Soul Awareness to be activated in myself.

So many of my clients struggle with the idea of loving themselves. We have been taught to put others first. We have often times been the caregiver as children and learned the habit of taking care of others first. We have not learned or known how to take care of ourselves first. We have not had the permission to take care of our own needs. We have been judged and ridiculed harshly for having needs and wants. We have grown up with the idea that to love ourselves is considered conceited and wrong.

We are now finding it vitally necessary to take care of ourselves SO THAT we can take care of others. As we deplete ourselves for the sake of others we find ourselves sick. We are depressed, tired, running ragged, unhappy, suffering with addictions to ease the pain of depletion. And the list goes on.

Yet to love ourselves is the doorway to loving others and designing the lives we are yearning to live. In my own experience the more I have healed and cleared my unresolved issues of shame and perfectionism the more I find myself connected to Love’s Presence. Our True Self is the part of us that is unconditionally loving, creative, joyful, playful and present. When we are bogged down in fear, shame, unworthiness and undeservability we are residing in our limited self, feeling trapped, unfulfilled and hopeless.

The soulful work I do with my clients is to connect them with their True Self. Through the process of releasing the limiting self and connecting to the creative, innocent, joyful and present Self, I see magical changes take place. Soon the inner experiences of self kindness and self care becomes their outer reality. I see them release the energy drains that no longer serve them. I see them make time for themselves in creative and fun ways. It is truly as if they found their magic wand and they begin creating their lives to match their heart-felt dreams and soul’s calling. They have awakened to Love’s Presence.

Schedule your complimentary breakthrough session and let’s get started so that you too can start using your magic wand in service to your True Self.
