The path won’t always be what you think it should be
Two recent meditations from the Dream Lab:
(The Dream Lab is one of the things I use as an almost-daily practice)
First one: My dream shows up as this burst of expansion which is like wings in my heart that stretch out.
There is this “reaching out” sensation but also a sensation of “rooting in” and being more who I am.
The internet has been broken in my home since the weekend. (Yeah I wrote this one last week, it’s fixed now!!) What it felt in the meditation is… THIS IS GOOD. Re-wiring myself to be more wired to myself, less wired to look outside of me for distractions.
And it felt like divine timing.
Creative projects are calling.
Creative GROWTH is calling.
And it feels like - rooting more deeply inside myself is how I help EXPAND into my dream at this time.
Second one: My dream shows up as a sacred crown being placed on my head.
And suddenly I am radiant and IN my own radiance.
I feel so calm and peaceful and sure.
My dream is my growth, my creativity, my healing. It’s an in me, I GOT THIS.
Often when I share my Dream Labs they are more focused and helpful, I am sharing how much this can help me in a practical sense.
But lately it’s just… vibes, lol.
Which IS, in a practical sense, what I need. But it doesn’t feel like the clarity of “ok go do this” that I sometimes get from this work.
It’s always shifting.
We’re never doing it wrong.
Just keep showing up.
There are three paths to making your dream happen.
The outer work, the practical stuff and measurable progress is only 1/3 of the process.
The inner work, the ways we confront the places where we hold back is also 1/3 of the process.
Then the dream work, the ways we grow more into who we really are, accept and nurture our gifts, is also 1/3.
Literally just sitting here, feeling this sacred crown on my head, radiating my own magic - this is the work. Sometimes. Doing these practices DOES shift how we see things, DOES bring in new ideas, and DOES impact the outer steps we take, so that we can see more of that measurable progress we all like so much.
