Lesson 40: Weather Watch

“Emotional weather is not who you are. And it does pass when you choose not to identify with it.”

— Stephanie Bennett Vogt

Although this is Friday’s lesson, I did actually do the lesson but didn’t have a chance to write it down.

There were times of overwhelming energy at work in which I didn’t want to have around me on Friday. I kept repeating the mantra taught from one of the previous lessons “it’s just weather” and took long inhales in and long exhales out. I think every time something may have started to feel anxiety, I just repeated this and it helped  to just settle it down.

Later on when I was at my mates’ house watching some TED talks and enjoying a nice meal, I took the time to notice that I was relaxed. When you’re taking the time to notice the changes in weather pattern, for me, it was nice to be aware of the calm weather, but that you have the power to control the feelings in the bad weather. I found that the breath work is really helpful in dealing with overwhelm and when you can recognise those little things that tick you off, repeating that mantra allow it not to get to you. It’s very much allowing it to come, recognising/acknowledging it’s there, and then releasing it.

Lesson 40: We have been led to believe...

We have been led to believe in society that bigger, faster, stronger is what makes us feel successful and what we desire. We’ve been conditioned in this way from when we’re young from the words of others, famous people, advertisements, movies, music, family, friends etc. Whatever method it may have been, we’ve at one point in our life looked at ourselves, looked at how we’re tracking, looked at what we have achieved and maybe have told ourselves that it’s not good enough or we need more. There would have been a moment in your life where you’re a culprit of this and that’s okay!

Today’s lesson talks about the Divine leading us to what we need and this may be slower, gradual and possibly less path. We know it in our hearts as to what we need, and today we are to recognise what resonates, and where have we been led to lately.

I have been countless of times led back to the message to start writing my books. I didn’t know how to start because I was so focused on developing the characters first, and the world I want to create, that the message that came to me was quite simple: just write and write one page a year so that when you get to the end of that year, you’ll have a book. The message was quite clear that you don’t need to have every single detail planned out and that it will come to you naturally. So I started on this journey and can’t wait for what comes when I eventually finish writing book one. There are three that I want to do.

I think in general, I’ve been led to just do more things that make me happy. Just get the creativity happening and study going. Apart from this, there are a lot of buried memories coming up that I need to deal with in order to let go and be the best version of myself. It’s a slow process but I feel good things happening this year especially once I fully deal with everything I need to.
