Reclaim Your Spirit
There’s a wonderful quote by Stephen Colbert who said, “Thankfully, dreams can change. If we’d all stuck with our first dream the world would be overrun with cowboys and princesses.”
I love that quote, but with regard to reclaiming your spirit, I’m not talking about remembering ‘what do I want to be when I grow up,’ unless indeed that’s still calling out to you.
I’m talking about remembering your childlike wonder when everything was a fascination.
When you watch a two-year-old, they look at everything in wonder. They pick up a block and stare at it with curiosity discovering what it feels like and its shape. They might taste it, they might even see if they can hear anything from it.
We need to allow ourselves the permission and freedom to dive back within our inner selves about our childlike wonder.
When on a path of deep healing, it can sometimes feel intense and very heavy. Digging down to our inner roots about the core wounding, pulling it out and thinking about what caused all our confusion and upset, can feel draining.
But with every wound there is a parallel…what is it that makes you personally magic?
What is that thing that stimulates that fairy dust moment for you and makes you feel twinkly and amazing?
