The soul of the dream can change things even when you don’t understand what is happening
Two days in a row I did the Meeting the soul of your business meditation.
(There is also a soul of your business version of the Dream Lab, here. Or if you don't have a business you can meet with the soul of your dream.)
Both times, the soul of my business appeared as a swan.
It was so soft and magical and powerful. It wanted me to sit on its back, it was soooo comfy cozy in there, and it wrapped its wings around me, and we took off for an adventure in the cosmos.
It was swimming through a cosmic ocean. It was magical and healing.
The feeling I got was: Let me carry you.
This felt connected to a larger message I have been receiving from myself and my dreams about accepting myself where I am.
Which is about accepting my brain AS IT IS NOW and STOP trying to accomplish and produce the way I did in my 30s and 40s.
And also, as we talk about on the Marketing as a Creative + Spiritual Practice calls - the stuff I used to do that worked so well for growing my business doesn't work now anyway so what if I just stop trying and .... FEEL GOOD ABOUT THAT?
And that… what if my 50 year old brain, as it is, is actually MORE POWERFUL?
Which feels SO true.
The ways my brain is changing... what if this is WISDOM?
What if it only feels like increasing anxiety because I'm trying to stay in the past?
It's a really big inner shift that looks like nothing on the outside. Like - staying home because I want to honour that I get anxious if I go to the event looks like the same as staying home and wishing I could go but I know the event will make me anxious.
BUT something feels different in me.
And the way I've been approaching my work and creative projects is REALLY changing and I FUCKING LOVE IT.
The way I feel, sitting in that swan and trusting it to take me to the right place, is amazing. I didn't understand it, especially the first day, but this is the medicine I need.
I shared the photo of my journal page as a way of saying - you really don't have to be good at drawing to draw out your meetings as a way to capture the magic of them.
No one but me knows that that's a swan, lol!! I'm still not sure I know what a swan looks like, but I captured the feeling and that helped me hold onto the experience.
The alchemy meditations shift energy and can create DRAMATIC shifts.
Journaling after helps you hold onto and integrate those shifts, otherwise it's easy to shift back to where you were.
