Day 66 - A Year of Spiritual Awakening - Choosing to Distract

Lesson 66: You may choose to distract...
When we feel pain, we sometimes don’t want to face it because it’s too much or too hard. It can become too overbearing and that’s why we tend to close off and distract ourselves. Today’s lesson is all about opening ourselves up to the pain because it’s “the first truth of what you have suffered” and is a “Divine relief”. If we remain open to healing, it will make us feel better. I am to think about this today.
I think as I’m expanding on my spiritual path, I have never truly understood the above, until now. There is so much to release and clear before you can truly feel inner bliss. I am in no way finished with dealing with my pain, which has accumulated over the years, but I know it’s a working progress. I am aware of what pain I have, and what old habits and thoughts I need to release, to truly get to where I need to be. I don’t think this is an overnight type of deal. Take on what you can slowly and once you can recognise what caused you pain, it’s then taking the steps for compassionate release.
I definitely agree that in working on your own pain, it does make you feel better. There is no more burden. It really is a relief when you’ve opened your space for more good things to arrive. Have a think about what your pain can do for you.
