Allowing for Support

Artist: Farma Hani, Poland

Allowing for support is what enables healing.

Whether that is on a personal, relational or spiritual level.

The space you allow for support offers foundations for change and an abundance of flow, fulfillment and joy to flood into your life.

In a culture that prioritizes productivity over fulfillment we can feel pressured to make choices that often go against what actually feels good and true for us.

YOUR BEING informs the kind of actions you will take (or not). And in turn gives shape and meaning to the way you create the outcomes you seek in life.

Pressure to be perfect, harsh inner criticism and unrealistic expectations keep cycles of inaction in place.

Overextending oneself can mean there is a compensation for where you feel split off from what is actually your wholesome state.

Stress around scarcity affects not only your finances, but also your creativity. Feelings of "not enough-ness" not only block, but can distort the flow of essence that can guide you.

Notice for a moment:

When you approach your to-do list on any given day, do you feel overwhelm, panic?

Or

Do you approach your daily tasks with feelings of joy, curiosity, creativity and inspiration?

Are your efforts actually supporting the flow of what you want for yourself?

Are you operating from stress in a way that keeps you overextending in ways that go against every cell of your body?”

Stress and fear are motivators but shouldn’t be our only ones.

True support can provide the space where you can actually feel the difference between avoidance and a spacious pause.

When you can discern between motivations of fear vs inspiration you engender the kind of abundance that is rooted in how much joy you allow to flood into your life.

Fulfillment is about having a LIFE that matches you on a soul level. When your inner BEING is in FLOW with your outer LIFE.

Even when things get hard, abundance, fulfillment and flow can abound.

This applies to every area of your life.

Work, money, purpose, health, relationships, love, intimacy all have their origin in the way you regard yourself, what you need and what you truly desire.

If we are not regularly tending to the deeper level of needs we have, we cannot actually enjoy the qualities we want for our life and relationships. 

Even with all the effort in the world, if your inner state of well-being (your soul) is not on board with what you are doing, what you are doing will continue to evade the true promise of what is yours to have. And how this unfolds is unique for everyone.

If you want a life to truly reflect the longings of your heart the first step is to care for who you are being from within.

Allowing for support to come in for you can be the choice that makes all the difference. Especially when you feel vulnerable, things are shifting and dissolving, and the possibility for real change presents itself.

Allowing for support requires not only a softening, but also an awareness of what is good and true for you at a deeper level.

This kind of softening asks you to slow down so that you can feel yourself. Opening you to places within that may feel closed off, shut down, exhausted, angry, disappointed, vulnerable and doubtful.

It may even reveal, at the root of it all, limiting beliefs about what you truly want.

Allowing for support breaks the spell of having to figure it all out on your own and enables you to lean into the deeper truths of what wants to be realized though you.

Allowing ourselves to be supported is a leap of faith. In ourselves. In others. And sometimes giving ourselves permission to be supported is the most important hurdle to overcome as we expand into more of what we long for most. 

Letting someone in is scary AND the witnessing we do together is what transforms us.

When we go into that place of not needing anything from anyone can we just notice it first and ask: Is this defense an indicator of where I am afraid to allow healing to go?

Wherever we feel alone or isolated can we check in to see: Where may I be guarding myself from getting hurt (again)?

Historically, we may have experienced the support that was available as unreliable or unkind. We may have felt unseen, unheard, hurt or betrayed and have a hard time feeling trust when asking for support.

And …Wherever we lack trust in others is a place from within the Self we can go to rebuild awareness and discernment, so that we can make different choices about how we allow for support.

Being in relationship is the opening. It is the invitation to the deepest understanding of who we are.  The fulfillment and success of our hard won efforts depends on how willing we are to let others support us as we re-learn to trust ourselves.

As we embody more of who we are and learn how to be more self-aware of what we truly need to feel (not just know) we are supported, we open with much greater ease in the areas of our life where it may be easier to hide, protect, and consciously or unconsciously play it small.

Admitting to ourselves that we actually want more is the moment we can begin to hold space and have compassion for the place in us that has been unknowingly or knowingly comfortable with less all this time.

It’s safe to want more.

It’s safe to be who you are.

It’s safe to go for what you truly want.

It’s not about forcing yourself to do the things you don’t want to do. Sure, we all have to do hard things and many of the things we have to do for the first time feel hard.

It’s about a leap of faith in yourself. Knowing that you already have everything inside of you to open to MORE.

Fulfillment, love and joy - these are the promises of life.

All we need is to learn how to create the optimal conditions for these promises to unfold from within our being and flow into our life more often. ⁠
