𓂀 I am a divine reflection of you. You are a divine reflection of me. 𓂀 ⠀
⠀
This is something I’ve been beginning to understand more... especially through my experience with~⠀
⠀
𓂂𓂄𓂉 𝑺𝒉𝒂𝒅𝒐𝒘 𝑾𝒐𝒓𝒌 𓂉𓂁𓂂⠀
⠀
Sitting with two of my soul aspects last night~ two past lives, both with traumas experienced, I realised that while I had been trying to push away these divine reflections and aspects of me, not wanting to re-experience the pain and trauma, simply wishing for it to go away and be done with so that I could quickly move on... ⠀
⠀
I suddenly became aware of the immense VALUE that these two aspects had given me. THEY were the reason I can have deep compassion for others suffering and pain. Through their first-hand experience of this pain, suffering, feelings of unworthiness, loss and tragedy- they gained a deeper wisdom on a soul level of human suffering and pain. ⠀
⠀
They are parts of my soul, divine reflections of me! Each precious, valuable & unique incarnations here on earth (just like you, me and every soul!)~ so we are one. ⠀
⠀
That’s why I experience certain emotional pain as well as compassion, connected to these two aspects specifically.⠀
⠀
As I sat with them, literally visualising myself sitting with them, hugging them, connecting~ we became like best friends! ⠀
⠀
I befriended these “shadow” aspects and realised they are not shadows at all, they are my friends! And they have given me so much learning and wisdom, ability to empathise and have compassion, through their unique experiences of life. ⠀
⠀
While it was painful for them to experience and go through, the wisdom gained had served them (us) on a soul level, as it had carried forward to this life, where I’m not experiencing those same traumas, but am now integrating the lessons and wisdom from them, to better serve humanity as a soul incarnate in this lifetime 🖤⠀
⠀
This can be applied to PRESENT LIFE trauma too!✨ (including inner child healing, and/or any life experiences that you experienced as intense or traumatic) ⠀
⠀
Connect with that aspect of yourself from the past (an experience in the past, can be years ago or even 5 MINUTES ago) ...
𓍬 Connect with her/him and see her as an aspect of you , who you are there to support and guide.

𓍬 ASK that aspect what he/she is needing in that moment , and listen to the answer you receive. You can have a full-blown conversation with this aspect!

𓍬 ACCEPT this & all that it says/tells you, as part of yourself that also deserves your love.

𓍬 Comfort her/him and give that aspect exactly what it needs ~ whether that be “love & attention”, “to be listened to and heard”, “to be given a hug and comforted,” etc.

𓍬 GIVE that aspect exactly the love, care, affection, attention, words of comfort, or WHATEVER it is that he/she/‘past you’ needed, but did receive, at that time.

𓍬 Bring the aspect close to you, connect, hug, and visually integrate the aspect back within you, accept her/him, and bring that aspect back into integration with the whole of you.

 𓂀 to be desired & worthy... 𓂀 2 January 2021

Today I sat and connected with an aspect of myself that I had been denying, avoiding, hiding and hiding from, for years~⠀
⠀
The aspect of me that feels deeply unworthy and insecure⠀
⠀
Who feels like her worth is dependent on whether she is desired & wanted by men⠀
⠀
Who is afraid of relationships and love, because she fears being rejected & left feeling unwanted⠀
⠀
Some of the main beliefs that came up were:⠀
⠀
* “I need to be wanted, desired and seen as attractive in order to have self worth”⠀
⠀
* “I can’t find / be with someone who I love because if they leave me, that makes me unworthy.”⠀
⠀
* “If someone else is seen as better or more attractive than me, then I have no sense of worth, I am completely unworthy”⠀
~ ~
This “shadow” aspect, is only a shadow because I have been rejecting and hiding her for so long!⠀
⠀⠀
But in truth~ her experiences are valid and need to be validated & valued🖤⠀
⠀
Just like a child has a right to cry, without being shunned, ignored or told to shut up and go away,⠀
⠀
So do our ‘shadow’ aspects deserve to be heard and felt by us⠀
~ ~ ~⠀
When I allowed the feelings and thoughts to naturally express themselves to me,⠀
⠀
Conversed with this inner aspect of myself who was experiencing these things,⠀
⠀
Asked her how she was feeling,⠀
⠀
Allowed her to express exactly what she felt⠀
⠀
~ Without needed to correct her or tell her she was wrong and shouldn’t feel that way ~⠀
⠀
I naturally began to feel lighter and more at ease surrounding the emotions and thoughts that had come up.⠀
⠀
I saw her (part of myself) through the eyes of compassion and love⠀
⠀
And ALSO clearly saw that these beliefs and feelings are not actually a true definition of my / her worthiness⠀
⠀
Allowing them to be expressed in a safe, loving space~ helped me to integrate this aspect back into myself with love, rather than running, suppressing or hiding her away🤍⠀
⠀
There are more layers to move through,⠀⠀
But I will come back to them another time, when I am ready again 👁✨⠀
⠀
I wanted to be gentle with myself⠀
⠀
To allow myself to enjoy this beautiful feeling of comfort, safety & self-love after having accepted and integrated even a small part of myself back into the whole🖤💕
 𓂀 Shadows Within Shadows 𓂀⠀ 9 January 2021
⠀
As I sat doing Shadow Work recently,⠀
I became aware of something interesting:⠀
⠀
my shadow had its OWN shadow aspect, within it! ⠀
⠀
~⠀
I was sitting with a young aspect of me, who was at the core of my Perfectionism (the main belief being “I’m not getting what I want/need because I’m not perfect, so I just have to be perfect to get what I want.”)⠀
⠀
As I sat with her & allowed her to express her thoughts and feelings to me, a deeper aspect (a ‘shadow’ aspect within her) came to the surface~ “Shame”. ⠀
⠀
I allowed “shame” to also express itself & its feelings to me. I felt the shame for all that it was.⠀
⠀
I saw & perceived it as a large sort of ‘blob’ in my mind. I hugged this blob (in my mind) & told it that I cared for it & loved it.⠀
⠀
As I got to know it a little better, I could sense that beneath the ‘blob’ was actually a girl (young me) crying. ⠀
⠀
As I spoke to her, she told me that the “perfectionism” was actually a layer on top of (a diversion from) the shame. ⠀
⠀
She had learned to hide her shame, and thought that if she maintained a perfect outer appearance, then she could potentially hide the shame away forever! Even from herself. ⠀
⠀
She tried to project as ‘perfect’ an outer image as possible, to cover any faults and flaws & hide them from others as a priority.⠀
⠀
She was able to distract herself too from the feelings of shame, by focusing her attention externally on nitpicking and perfectionism ⠀
⠀
~ ⠀
I had worked with “perfectionism” before to heal it, but I hadn’t fully recognised the deeper core wound within/underneath it🖤⠀
⠀
The funny thing is~ I didn’t want to go there at first, I felt a lot of resistance to seeing & feeling that shame~ makes sense since at the core of shame is wanting to hide or keep something hidden.⠀
⠀
But when I did,⠀
The shame finally felt accepted⠀
And my fear around it, dissolved⠀
⠀
~⠀
When sitting with shadow work, allow yourself to follow the shadows (neutrally & lovingly) where they want to take you~ to observe & bring to light the even deeper, darker corners of yourself. ⠀
⠀
If you feel resistance, that’s exactly where the gold is. The darkest shadows hold the most magic✨🪄
