OUR INNER CONSCIOUSNESS
Within the spiritual community, you hear so much talk on self healing. This usually includes shadow work and inner child healing.
We are so intricate yet vast and so wonderfully created.
We are made up of many aspects, from the conscious to the subconscious and once you start to dive into your own healing journey, you realise that we simply need more love and compassion for self.
I want to share some information in regards to the various aspects of self and hope it helps you gain a little more clarity and understanding.
Let us start with our HIGHER SELF. This aspect of self is what I call our divine inner guidance from a wiser, more experienced version of ourselves, preferably from outside the polarity duality reality we currently live in. This is the version we should all aspire to be connecting to daily.Your Higher Self is not to be mistaken for an entity outside of yourself. Think of it as your original essence, the greater, wiser you, who has the experience and knowledge from your many lifetimes to provide a blueprint for your current journey.
Connecting with your higher self brings a sense of safety and clarity. Daily deep meditation with the clear intent to connect with your higher self from outside polarity has the ability to channel in high frequencies through our energy bodies to assist us in all aspects of life.
The INNER CHILD, this aspect of our inner self is the innocence.
Now the inner child can hold a lot of emotional trauma.
When working with our inner child we need to be gentle when stripping back the programming and unmet needs from our upbringing.
The aim is to forgive the past and build confidence and trust in ourselves and others.
The majority of our parents/guardians did their best and have a wounded inner child too, kindness is key.
Connect with your inner child through play, dance and joyful expression. Speak to your inner child regularly, let them know they are heard, loved and safe.
Our SHADOW SELF, is often mistaken as the ‘ego’. It is the side of us that has a tendency to sabotage our growth.
It is all the suppressed emotions and harboured feelings of resentment, anger and fear that we try to hide, in order to find acceptance.
The goal is to heal and integrate your shadow self by understanding why we project onto others and may have a tendency to play victim, rather than taking our power back and reflecting inward, in order to make a change.
Establish a positive relationship with your shadow self. Sit with your emotions. Feel them and then use your intention to send love into those parts that feel hurt or feel trauma, this is the best way to heal and integrate your shadow.
Our EGO is our identity. Our social personality.
It likes to shield us from our dislikes but also prevents us from acting on our basic urges. Balancing our morals and social standards.
The aim is to be understanding of other objectives without becoming triggered when others challenge our opinions.
Rather than ignore your triggers, contemplate on why they have surfaced. At the core of each trigger is a past trauma.
Connecting with your higher self to reflect on why a topic affects you and then energetically clearing/healing the issue at the core, is the most effective way of
Before I briefly explain the characteristics of both the masculine and feminine, I wish to point out that we all have BOTH masculine and feminine polarities and energies inside of us.
The MASCULINE energy likes structure in order to apply logic correctly.
The divine masculine energy has the gift of clarity, so it knows what needs to be done in order to achieve the set out goal. He is also the protector and holds safety for the feminine to flow in her creativity.
He is the master of planning and laying out guidelines based on logic and experience. A healthy masculine polarity does so with confidence and self assurance. Learn to trust in your ability and decision making.
The FEMININE embodies magnetism, flow and creativity.
The divine feminine follows her heart, and understands that emotions and feelings, have valuable messages and therefore listens to her inner knowing.
The feminine also knows when it’s time to slow down and nurture self, whilst embodying the frequency of creation and instant manifestation, living in the natural flow of death and rebirth. Create and express yourself, your feminine will thank you for it.
Much Love
