Catching Up
After a two or three cloudy cool days here in Washington (with the high of 60 degrees), the sun has come out today and it is 66 degrees at 10am. I am on the ferry headed to Seattle for my monthly Energy and Intuition training with Daisy Thompson. This is the one day out of the month that I get really excited to find out what I am going to learn from this amazing program. My other school is more of a "pay the bills" kind of training, however, energy work is where my curiosity and passion live the most.
Catching up on what has been going on, I didn't want to speak to early about it and I feel it is safe to share now "THE HOUSE IS SOLD" This is exciting news for me and scary as hell at the same time. To be completely honest, I don't know what the heck I am going to do, but my lesson if life I am currently working on is TRUST and it is a new thing for me. What I have learned (especially in the sale of my home) is setting our intention is the most important thing we can do. When I got the intuitive message to sell my home, that didn't come from my "thinking brain" that came from what I call "spiritual guidance" or my "team." My logical mind never would have chose the path I am walking on because I wouldn't have all of the answers and the mind likes to have all of the answers figured out. When we follow the universal or divine intelligence we can't possibly know what our team has in store for us, we can't perceive it because our mind can only come up with solutions based on past stored experiences or emotions. One of the most important lessons I have learned from my teachers this year is "INTENTION IS EVERYTHING" set an intention of what you want and "let go" of the how. The how will be intelligently designed by our team of spirit guides that are always here to support us on our journey, however, when our intention is not clear or we bounce around doubting ourself and the outcome based on the past, they can't get clear on what we want - therefore, they are unable to support us to the outcome.
I have intentions for the future, however, at the moment I am keeping things to myself in order for me to protect my vision and allow spirit to do the guiding. Somehow, this involves me moving out of my home and into the unknown (also known as my teardrop camper.) People ask, what are you going to do? What is your plan? To be completely honest, I don't know what I am going to do exactly, I don't have a plan. I do however trust that I am fully supported by my guides and teachers to learn the lessons I am needing to learn in order to set up for the best possible path to follow. I will keep my intentions strong and reaffirm them daily through my thoughts and meditations.
As of today, I will be moving out of my home before 24 August which is the official closing date. I did tell my realtor that I would be open to moving out sooner if the closing process is ahead of schedule. Yesterday I scheduled my home goods delivery and will look forward to getting the call from the moving company that will be moving my things. I have a small storage unit in my town to store things I will be using such as my surfboards, snowboard, stand up paddle boards, bike and my small dual season wardrobe. (all of the important things) However, not much space is needed since my goal is to have as little of a footprint while living in my camper in order to feel less stress and have more of my mind/spirit open up to the guidance I will receive in my writing and living.
Update on something exciting: I recently found out Dr. Joe Dispenza and Dr. Caroline Myss (Author of Anatomy of the Spirit) are appearing next month in Washington at the Celebrate Your Life (CYL) Retreat in Stevenson, WA. This is a beautiful location at the Oregon and Washington border along the Columbia River Gorge. When I found out about their appearances the event was sold out, however, I put my name on the wait list for the event. I didn't give it much thought after, however, I was contacted on Thursday that a spot had opened up and I can attend!!!! I am very excited about seeing these wise people in person and feeling the energy that will be at such a high vibration and highly loving event. I will be camping in the area near where the event is taking place so lodging will not be expensive. The infamous Bridge of the Gods is near where the event is held. This bridge was the final place the character crossed in the Movie/Book "WILD" the movie featured Reece Witherspoon. I have yet to read the book, but it is on my list. I had a few reservations about attending the CYL retreat due to it being right in the middle of the time when I should be preparing myself and my home for move out, but I figured this was a once in a lifetime where I don't have to fly to this event and have the ability to have it so close to my home that I should jump on the opportunity. There are people attending from all over the world and I am lucky enough to practically have the event happening in my backyard (4 hours away.) There is so much excitement (aka terrifying things) happening in my life right now, I am on the fence about starting to make little videos each day documenting the happenings, struggles, and excitements. Writing a blog each day is already a new habit I am forming, so I will give myself a little time to add yet another new creative venture into the mix. This is one of the biggest reasons I feel good about selling my home and moving out. Homeownership takes up a lot of energy and I tend to acquire things and habits that do not serve me, but seem to take up my time. My intention is for all of that energy once spent on yard upkeep, all of my lovely plants, and clean home to be given to things that bring me more joy. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love plants and watching the miracle of things growing, however, the everyday maintenance and my habitual excuses of laziness have kept me from doing things I know (spending time outdoors/adventures) bring me more joy and inspiration. This is the intention - to be inspired and love myself more.
