Ugh. How Many Layers?
Maybe not as many as it seems. What if our Egos hold the last vestige on the path to inner peace? An invitation to keep moving forward, because, let's face it, we rarely shift when we are comfortable.
Roller coaster energy can affect our emotions… high one minute, low the next. One minute peace, love, and compassion; understanding that other’s behavior reflects where they are at and the next, feeling triggered and reactive. In an instant it is again about the self, bringing forth an old pattern that engages our attention and creates an invitation to release old responsibilities, guilt, blame…
‘How many times?’ and ‘How many layers?’ we ask.
‘As many as it takes’, has always been the answer.
However, as we continue to shift, we come to understand that we are dealing with ‘dead’ light bodies. These aspects or versions of ourselves are residues from other lifetimes, etc. These don’t require further ‘work’ but simply a gentle reminder to dis-engage.
Many of those who have been doing the work, are no longer energetically fragmented, recognising they are one with creation. As the cause of our pain is resolved we no longer need to suffer by dwelling on it. A rollercoaster may simply be a reminder that our Egoic mind wants to stay in a trauma holding pattern rather than creating a new flight path.

Forgive, heal, hold compassion and then step out of the drama. It is no longer who we are.
There are a couple of things we can do to ensure that our vibration is clear:
Clean up any Residue Energies
Connect with your Higher Self and state with intention:
I [name] call back all of my energy, all fragments and residues of worry and low vibration from every energetic point, healing and transmuting it to love.
Imagine what it would be like to live beyond the ‘story’ you have experienced up until this moment. If it was needed to grow certain strengths, accept this and move on. Let yourself BE in this present moment.
What would life look like if you no longer dwelled on the past and let yourself to be fully focused in this moment?
I [name] choose to release my trauma driven self, reclaim my energetic power and realign my vibration with Christ Consciousness at every energetic point.
As above, so below and so it is.
How will you know you are Happy?
If we don’t take time to figure out ‘our happy’ how will we know we have achieved it? As you read through, take a moment to consider what ‘happy’ looks like for you.

What if
I want to be loved becomes an opportunity to learn to love self and others unconditionally.
I want a beautiful home becomes appreciation for having a roof over my head.
I want to be my ‘ideal’ weight becomes gratitude for having a physical body that allows you to experience this gift called life.
I want to be free of worries becomes a reminder that we each are having experiences in conjunction with Divine guidance, and hold gratitude for this moment, this present moment, for the gift of breath and a beating heart.
I want a peaceful life becomes I choose a peaceful life and step away from drama.
Reset your expectations of self and find self-appreciation. It always begins with us (yes, I too am listening - It begins with you Michelle).
Love and blessings, dear ones. Wishing us all inner peace.
