Don’t run, stay.
Don’t turn away, BE here.
Our need to run is an old inner message that’s trying to find safety, but it’s going to run forever until the wiser part of you makes the firm decision that, “we will run no more”.
“You can’t do anything as long as you are afraid of what might happen. Fear clouds opportunities, erases possibilities, and limits the ability to move beyond the place in which the mind is stuck. No matter how difficult we think the problem is, we must muster up the courage to face it.” – Iyanla Vanzant
“Breathing deeply and releasing fear will help you get to where you want to be.” – Iyanla Vanzant
“What keeps us from achieving our heart’s desires is not anything outside of us, it’s the conflict inside.” – Iyanla Vanzant
“No storm can last forever. It will never rain 365 days consecutively. Keep in mind that trouble comes to pass, not to stay. Don’t worry! No storm, not even the one in your life, can last forever.” – Iyanla Vanzant
Our innate tendency to want to escape from discomfort or pain can lead us on a never-ending chase for some external refuge, that just never really provides the safety that we thought it promised. True peace and fulfillment can only be found by confronting whatever we’re dealing with and embracing our authentic selves in the process.
It’s not the storm around you that is holding you back, it’s what’s happening inside of you during the storm that is your prison.
In today’s meditation you’ll find that there’s a mountain in you which is equally able to sit through sunshine, and rain, and even storm. What is happening outside of you, doesn’t have to change what is happening within you.
Some affirmations of the immovable presence of your soul:
- I am the mountain. No storm can shake my foundation.
- I release fear. I choose courage.
- My breath is my anchor. I find peace in the present moment.
- I am worthy of love, peace, and happiness.
- I am strong, resilient, and capable.
It’s important to remember that storms, both external and internal, are temporary. Just as the rain eventually stops, so too will the challenges we face. The key is to weather the storm with resilience and grace. By staying present, cultivating inner peace, and addressing our internal conflicts, we can emerge stronger and more empowered.
