Look Within for Your Answers

What can we do to help ourselves ascend?

So many of us are asking this question. We're looking intensely for answers, almost as if the bus will leave without us if we somehow get it wrong.

First, there is no right or wrong and if your heart is open and loving, you won't be "left behind". Second—and more to the point of this post—please realize that our answers cannot be found outside ourselves. You came into this world with everything you need. It's all within. You don't require anyone else's approval, just your own love for yourself and your intuition/connection to your Divine essence (your soul). 

I've heard many desperate questions regarding being "good enough" to ascend. What if my diet's not right? What if I struggle with illness? What if I've not yet healed all of my trauma? What if I don't understand everything that's going on? All of this self-doubt is not healthy because it comes from a place inside that feels inadequate.

Please hear this loud and clear: No matter what anyone else has ever told you, you are enough. You are inherently wonderful. You are a beautiful soul who came here on a mission and, whether you believe it or not, you are doing your job.

We tend to feel as if we're "supposed" to be turning cartwheels, holding the earth up with only our own two hands, or leading a great army—it almost never feels like we're doing enough. My friend, you are doing enough. You're living through these times and learning about yourself. We are here—many, many of us—to bring the light of consciousness to this planet. We aren't asked to be extraordinary. What we're tasked with is to erase self-doubt, and trust ourselves and a multidimensional, universal process that is taking us all on a journey of growth, expansion, and enlightenment.

You're on the bus already. What we must do is trust this fact. By doing this, we cultivate trust in ourselves and in a greater process. Learn to trust your intuition, your feelings, your thoughts, your extrasensory gifts, your body, and all your experiences. These are your teachers and messengers, Treat them kindly, with respect, and you'll never have to ask someone else a question about what's best for you. No one can answer that but you.

Please, do not seek perfection. As long as we're having a human experience, we will not be perfect. Look only for gentle progress, whatever that means for you. Remember, progress is rarely a straight line; it's a path filled with bumps and divots. The path has its higher and its lower points. Trust in the bigger picture of your growth, as you continue on your journey. Be kind to yourself. Honor and respect what you're going through from one moment, hour, or day to the next. Let go of expectations. They aren't helpful. Sometimes the best thing we can do is breathe and simply tell ourselves we're okay.

Ascension is happening right now. We've thankfully crossed the threshold into the Age of Aquarius. This fact cannot and will not change. We are presently heading into a time of love and peace. Hold this truth in your heart and know we're doing all we came to do. Trust that everything is happening for our greatest and highest good. Do what you know deep in your soul to be the best for you. No one can ask for more than that.
