Why the Old Way Won’t Work and What to Do Instead

I’ll get right to the point.

I know you’re trying to keep yourself busy.

Because if you don’t, you’ll have to feel all the things you are feeling. And we aren’t so good at that.

This is a normal human response to a totally abnormal situation, like a pandemic. And all the dominoes that are falling down in response to the pandemic.

So I know you’re fighting with all you’ve got to… keep. doing. IT. Whatever “it” is. Whatever you were doing before…but on steroids now.

Because it feels like that’s the only way you’re gonna stay afloat.

Please stop.

That’s the old way and it won’t work anymore.

To thrive going forward, we have to do things in a whole new way. 

I usually avoid using overly spiritual language, because it loses some people. But I can only explain this using spiritual language, because it actually is a spiritual event.

This energy coming in is a kick-ass transformative energy, hell bent on awakening us.

What is its goal?

To shake us out of our stupor. Out of the dream.

To remind us that we are not who we think we are, and when we live aligned with our psyche/egoic self, we get lost in the dream and it becomes a nightmare.

Please take in what I’m about to say. Because it will change your life.

It will help you navigate this tricky time with ease and grace, and guide you to do exactly what you need for safe passage through it.

I am not Shawn.

I am a being who has no name, no identity, no opinions.

I am connected to all that ever was, all that is, and all that will ever be.

I am whole and complete.

I always have everything I need. I am always doing exactly what I need to be doing.

I can never be lost. I am made of the fabric of the stars, of the tiniest amoebas, of light, of dark, of creation…

I am life itself.

And So. Are. You. 

My job is to take care of Shawn.

The person called “Shawn” is a gift to me for this lifetime.

The person called {your name!} is a gift to you for this lifetime.

And it is your job to take care of, support, love and encourage that unique and very temporary expression of life. 

Your job is to learn how to listen to that person. To meet his/her feelings with true empathy. To listen to what he/she really wants most and why.

You are not {your name!} .

You are the caretaker of {your name!} .

When you learn to see yourself this way, when you learn to step outside of your psyche/egoic self and see him/her with empathy, kindness, patience, you create a powerful space of deep connection between you and your highest potential in service to this world.

Conversely, when you identify with that person, when you get confused and think you ARE that person, you will continue to follow previously programmed subconscious patterns of belief and behaviour that will no longer create the results you desire.

So today I invite you to just sit with this idea. Let it percolate.

Let this email plant a seed that takes root–a seed that you feed and water and take care of, and find great joy in seeing how it grows, and what it wants to do without you needing to control and micromanage it.

It is your soul PURPOSE in life to take exquisite care of this seed–to do everything in your power to help it grow and expand to its fullest potential, and allow it to have so much fun and support on that journey…from you.

Because of you.

The name of that seed is {your name!} .

Take special care of it. It is a gift to you for just this lifetime. Help it explore what it wants to become, and support it absolutely on that adventure.

Here’s to the new world we are growing together.

p.s. I recently did a webinar with Careergasm founder and amazing human, Sarah Vermunt. The whole thing was an hour of channelled guidance on what to do now to navigate anxiety, but also there was lots of guidance about this time, what it means and how to get safe passage through it.

Those of you who work with me know that I am not a coach. I am a channel. I have a psyche/egoic self just like you who is learning all the time FROM the things I channel. Not sure if that makes sense to you, but that’s the truth. In any case, there was a lot of useful guidance that came through in this one for all of us (me included).

The replay is still up. I’m not sure how long it will be live, so watch it now if you feel you are ready for some truly life-changing guidance at this time.
