Today’s message from Elizabeth Gilbert is a reminder of the divinity that you are as a spiritual being. Have you discovered what resides within you?
“‘Om Namah Shivaya’, meaning, I honor the divinity that resides within me.” – Elizabeth Gilbert
It’s a powerful statement, a declaration of self-worth and a recognition of the sacredness of our being. But the road to this self-discovery is seldom smooth, it can be a bumpy road to travel.
When we ‘try’ and turn inwards, what we often encounter first is everything that has been hidden. Everything that we’ve been running away from, trying to suppress, attempting to numb – resides just below the surface because it never went away.
Turning inward in an effort towards self-exploration can be a scary process at first that feels anything but divine.
I want you to know that if you dedicate the time to work through and understand the fears hidden just below the surface, they will soften. And as they soften you’ll slowly settle deeper into your BEING, and come to know the divinity that resides within you.
“The universe buries strange jewels deep within us all, and then stands back to see if we can find them.” – Elizabeth Gilbert
“So this, I believe, is the central question upon which all creative living hinges: Do you have the courage to bring forth the treasures that are hidden within you?” Elizabeth Gilbert
Don’t turn. Don’t run. Stay… Lean in and feel this all the way through or you will run forever. And if you run forever, you’ll never be home.
By choosing to face our fears and delve into the depths of our being, we embark on a transformative journey that has the power to change our lives and the world around us.
As we embark on this inward exploration, let us cultivate a sense of curiosity and wonder. Let us approach ourselves with compassion and kindness, recognizing that we are all works in progress. And let us trust that the universe, in its infinite wisdom, has placed within us everything we need to fulfill our purpose.
Today’s meditation is borne out of the recognition that we have a soul full of wisdom that we can learn how to connect with in a deeper way. Let us listen to the whispers of our soul, and allow the hidden jewels within to shine forth.
Mantras for self-reflection:
- I am willing to face my fears.
- I trust the process of self-discovery.
- I honor the divinity within me.
- I am worthy of love and happiness.
- I am becoming the best version of myself.
By dedicating time for meditation and introspection, we create a sacred space to connect with our inner wisdom. So, let us embrace the journey. Let us honor the divinity within, and let us have the courage to uncover the treasures buried deep within our hearts. And may we remember that the greatest treasures are often hidden in the most unexpected places.
