Reclaiming Trust: Nurturing Belief and Connection: Five Things You Can do - Number Five

Day 5: Embracing Fear and Uncertainty

In our final day together, we will confront fear and uncertainty head-on. Embrace the understanding that these emotions are not roadblocks but stepping stones towards growth and self-trust. Discover strategies to navigate through challenges, build resilience, and transform fear into a catalyst for personal transformation. By the end of this day, you will emerge with a newfound perspective on fear and a deep-seated trust in your ability to navigate life's uncertainties.

Fear, in its various forms, permeates our lives on a daily basis, exerting its influence in subtle and overt ways. It takes shape in our relationships, our ambitions, and our willingness to step outside our comfort zones. Our ego, ever vigilant in protecting us, putting up boundaries that resist change and shield us from uncertainty. Yet, personal growth calls us so loudly, often times through emotional pain and confusion - a sign we have choices - to confront these fears head-on, for it is through embracing them as catalysts for resilience and growth that we truly flourish.

One vivid illustration of fear's impact is the physical pain we experience. I vividly recall the agonising ordeal of having a tooth extracted in 2021. Initially, I believed the excruciating pain was a natural part of the process, accepting it as an inevitable consequence. It was only when I sought the guidance of my dentist that I discovered the presence of a dry socket—an absence of the blood clot necessary for proper healing. The throbbing ache in my gum and jaw mirrored the intensity of a toothache, reminding me of the pain that accompanies change. However, with the aid of rest and painkillers, the area eventually healed, paving the way for the next stage of restoration.

Life experiences can be exactly the same, we have the agency and choice to do so, but we also have to build the foundation to repeatedly say yes to our highest good.

In a similar vein, personal growth urges us to transcend fear and its constricting grasp. By saying no to the limitations of our mental confines, we invite adventure and discovery into our lives. Our souls, ever yearning for evolution, propel us forward, offering opportunities for transformation and expansion. Aligning ourselves with the divine, we recognise that God's companionship is conditional, not in the way we often perceive it, but rather in harmony with the universal laws that govern existence. Just as rain follows a cycle, God respects our free will, refraining from imposing upon others against their wishes. Forcing our desires upon others would be an act of bullying rather than an embrace of growth, or compassion it takes to accept we are different to do things differently in our time.

There are instances when we can't help but feel that the orchestrations of life are guided by a higher power. Within the complex tapestry of family dynamics, I found myself in a challenging situation while staying at my mother's place. My father, in a fit of anger, directed a barrage of hurtful and disrespectful words at me, breaching the boundaries of decency. As someone who has always strived to maintain respect, despite the deep-rooted pain from my childhood, this encounter became a turning point. Caught between conflicting emotions, I found the courage to confront him, breaking the silence that fear had enforced. It was a difficult step, but an essential one in reclaiming my voice and asserting my worth.

In conclusion, fear and uncertainty are inherent elements of personal growth. They exist as constant companions, testing our resolve and challenging our boundaries. However, by embracing them as catalysts for resilience and growth, we open ourselves to transformative experiences and the vast possibilities that lie beyond our comfort zones. Through acknowledging the lessons pain teaches us and recognising the conditional nature of divine guidance, we navigate the path of personal growth with courage and intention. In doing so, we embark on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, fuelled by the unyielding desire to transcend our fears and embrace the fullness of our potential.

It has been 9 years of recovery, discovery and the uncovering. I attended my brother's wedding yesterday. It was the joining of families and healing. Another brother I had conflict with, stole my heart with a heartfelt "I love you, I know I rage against you, and my own family, I want to change but other people see me like this..." he continued. I hugged my dad, who on occasions I have not spoken to for yearsssss. With lots of ssssss.

All these things take time to achieve. There are many things that scar(e) us and cause us to retreat. Next time you notice yourself talking yourself out of what you really want. Ask yourself, what better alternative is there? What do you want it to be like? And, if you are willing but the gumption is not there ask your Higher Power to help with the willingness.

Sounds easy. It is that simple. We make it complicated. We are not changing us, something greater is and certain of our poor habits will change for good as long as we strive in the direction of willingness to do different, And do different! Try the idea!

We've conquered countless challenges, perhaps without recognising them. Our perception of what's normal varies, and not all of it is healthy. Yet, when it's all we've known, overcoming it can feel insignificant.

Overcoming challenges and finding strength in the face of uncertainty is more normal than we think. I have had plenty of support, from the big fight with my dad, being the very orchestration or set up I needed to propel me into a deeper and even more fulfilled relationship with community, God, Higher Power, finding purpose and the massive reduction of self-defeating thinking.

We may not see these as support, because they hurt, super bad.

Before I was a loner, a childhood thing, lacked trust in community, a childhood thing, the list goes on. Stepping into sovereign energy is key. It takes daily practice and it is worth it.

If you are looking for support, do make contact. I work one-to-one through the Draw in Your Bliss program or without the program, just straight talking.

Happy Saturday and classic June weather.
