We are in times of rapid and unprecedented change. And many of us are falling into fear energy – which works against us big time.
Did you read “Where Did You Put My Cheese?” If not, now is an excellent time to read it.
It’s a parable about some mice who are in a maze. And one day, the cheese isn’t where it used to be. Two of the mice refuse to venture out and look for new paths and they end up dying. But two other mice go exploring, choosing instead to treat the moved cheese as an adventure – a new opportunity. And they find not only the original cheese, but greater treats as well. And they live happily everafter. (That’s a summary that might be a bit light, but you get the idea.)
Now is a GREAT time to learn what I call “The Art of Reframing.” Instead of trying to look back into our history and find a way to make it the way it once was, now is a fabulous time to “reframe” our circumstances and look for ways we can re-invent ourselves, find new opportunities, explore this vast Universe that has SO MUCH to offer.
As an intuitive, I”ve worked with many people who found their entire worlds turned upside down – often with no warning.
One amazing woman, I’ll call her Rose, was happily married for 27 years, had three fabulous kids, was a stay at home mom who did lots of charity work, and her husband was a successful CEO at a very prominent company.
Her world collapsed within the space of a year. Her husband began having an affair with a woman almost half his age and he ended up divorcing her. Her beloved pet suddenly developed a rare blood disease and had to be put down — only a few months after her husband’s affair was discovered. And only a few months after that she developed stage four breast cancer and was given less than 10% odds of surviving.
She had to reframe her identity and her entire life. She had to choose to survive her cancer (which she did), find a new way of being AND create a career!
In the process of healing her cancer, she researched and utilized many holistic treatments which are a huge part of why she survived. Ultimately, she became a holistic healer herself! She is now trained in more than half a dozen holistic modalities, does energy work and other healing for many individuals, has a lovely new home, dates exciting men and is totally cancer free – ranking in the 8 percentile of those who survive the cancer she had for more than 9 years now.
She not only reframed – she DECIDED that she was more than the costume of her old life — she was an infinite being who could be infinitely redefined and enhanced.
Now, most of us are facing only financial concerns – loss of a job or home perhaps. Maybe even a relationship.
But few of us will ever encounter what Rose did in the time span of 18 months – nor would we wish to.
But her story can be a HUGE encouragement to each of us to get on with life – find the new opportunities – and realize that as Divine Beings we ARE unlimited.
We just have to DECIDE.
