Stepping Off Somebody Else’s Timeline

April 29, 2022

it's time to live life for you

Have you ever had a moment where you felt like you looked up and realised that your dreams weren’t yours, your goals weren’t yours and the life you were living wasn’t yours? 

If yes, you know what I’m about to say. 
If not, maybe this is that moment for you. 

We grow up in a world that expects us to be, live and dream a certain way. 
As women, we are conditioned to believe that the ‘good girl‘ way is the only way. 

You know what I mean. The girl that’s submissive. Says yes to everything. Is the caretaker. Erases her wildness to serve the patriarchal and capitalist standards of society.

What happens within and to us is the same thing that is happening to Mother Earth. The control that certain parties try to have over natural, flowy, fertile, healthy, regenerative energy is killing Mama Gaia, and it’s killing us. 

But when you’ve been shown a certain set of ideals, norms, values and dreams your whole life, it can be hard to know what is actually yours and what is yours to leave behind, right? 

I’ve been there. 
I thought the alternative to the 9-5 matrix (and the whole linear career path that’s a part of it) for me was to travel, become a digital nomad and live out of an overstuffed backpack. 
It wasn’t until I found myself across the world that I realised that that sort of uprootedness didn’t give me the freedom I desired but rather a sense of anxiety and displacement. And as I was looking at other people living it up in Bali as I was trying to suppress a panic attack, I came to a deep realisation. 

I simply had stepped on someone’s elses timeline again.
This wasn’t my way of stepping out of the matrix. This wasn’t my life I was living. 

And you know what? That’s okay. In hindsight, I can look at that with so much compassion. I believe it takes stepping onto a few timelines to fully carve out your own. I believe it takes time to trust yourself in understanding you don’t need to see the whole path of your life right now, just the first step. I believe that it’s a process of taking two steps forward and sometimes one step back to figure out what’s meant for you. 

The key thing is that you’re committed to the process. 

The matrix’s timeline will always be there for you. But will that truly make you happy? If you’re here, still reading this, my guess is probably not. 

You’re meant for something bigger and better. You’re meant to feel deeply happy, sure of yourself, healed as much as you can, and rooted in who you are and what you’re worthy of. 
And that isn’t going to happen on somebody else’s timeline. 

So in this moment, place your hand on your heart-space and ask yourself – what would feel REALLY good right now? 
Nothing is too strange, silly or ‘out there’. Invite in the wildness. Open yourself up to the unthinkable. 

You’re meant for greatness. It’s time. 

pin for later…

Affirmations are energetic reminders - using words to bring you back to what you're working on and where you're headed on your spiritual path. 🙏🏼 ⁠
⁠
This is why within each module of Sacralise Yourself, you are offered three affirmations to help you lock in the inner work you're doing.✨⁠
⁠
I personally love the affirmation 'my source power resides within', and it has been my wallpaper on my phone for over a month now. It helps me remember to realign my energy, check in with myself and continue to connect to my own desires and energy. In my role as mentor, but also as a woman and human being in our world, I give a lot. I love this and do it very intentionally, but this affirmation reminds me to always bring it back to myself. ☺️⁠
⁠
In the brand new, donation-based training Sacralise Yourself I have also included twelve personalised wallpapers as a bonus (see pic 2 for a little preview), inspired by the affirmation we journey through in the modules. May they serve as a reminder and empowerment tool to you as much as they do to me! ⁠
⁠
Check out SY through the link in bio. I'm incredibly excited and proud of how this training allows you to journey back home to your feminine magic and the sacred energy this holds. It also gives you the opportunity to connect with likeminded sister through our exclusive virtual community. Go check it out, I'd love to welcome you in! 🧡⁠
⁠
And in the mean time, what's your favourite affirmation right now? 👇🏼

In a world of social media and 'doing what you love', can things still be sacred? 🧘🏼‍♀️

I recently had to make the difficult decision to quit my weekly Yoga teaching, to make space for other projects and divine rest.
And something I have always struggled with since I became a Yoga teacher (and this trickles into other areas of my work too) is the sacredness of my own practice. 

I am so lucky and grateful that I have been able to create a business based on my personal interests and passions. Something I didn't expect to be a side-effect of that, however, is that most of what I love doing are also things I share about online and with my clients and customers. And as amazing as that is, it's also sometimes hard to relax into these things on a personal level now. 

So now that teaching Yoga isn't part of my workweek anymore, I have returned to the practice as a sacred moment for myself. And there's magic hidden within that. ✨

You may (or not!) notice that I rarely film myself meditating, journaling or doing Yoga for stories. For a while, I doubted whether I could fully claim that I was practicing what I was preaching if I didn't have the content to show for it. But as much as I love to share my life with you, I just don't want to feel distracted in my sacred practices, making sure I'm getting the right angle or that the lighting is okay. 🤷🏼‍♀️

All this to say - there's something to be said about keeping things sacred. There's a magic that can happen within if we keep things close to our heart. In a world focused on sharing, can you resource yourself without showing it to the world? Can that still count? 

It's an interesting topic that I definitely don't have all the answers for - because I also understand the other side of this coin, where it can feel incredibly empowering (and healing!) to share about your more spiritual side (trust me, I've been there too).

But exploring the sacredness of our beliefs and actions is definitely part of our path. It's no coincidence that I'm launching 'Sacralise Yourself', the mini training I've been working on for a while (!), on Wednesday. Keep your eyes peeled if you're keen to dive into your own sacred processes...! 🧡
