If you struggle with GUILT because of your THOUGHTS keep reading.... This post might set you free.

You are not your thoughts.

I don’t just mean that you physically aren’t your thoughts, cause like, duh.

What I mean is YOU don’t choose your thoughts.

You aren’t RESPONSIBLE for your thoughts.

You don’t need to feel ANY shame or guilt for your thoughts.

Because YOU don’t even create them.

You see, we have this idea that our mind and body and soul are all one entity.

Which means that we think, and we act, and then we assume it’s all what WE independently chose.

But what they don’t teach is that your brain is an organ in your body that produces thoughts based on MEMORY.

Your brain data-logs everything into its memory bank – and then produces thoughts based on those memories ALONE.

This means that your brain cannot produce an original thought without having witnessed or experienced something to help create that thought.

Your brain doesn't produce original thoughts... EVER.

And this might feel like a blow to the ego because damn, none of my ideas came from me?

Sure they did, but from an accumulation of data that your brain collected and aligned together at the perfect time.

Sorry to tell ya, but even your greatest ideas came from the sum of things you've already experienced.

You can't come up with a thought out of thin air.

To test this theory, try and think of a colour you have never seen before.

Can’t do it, can you?

That’s because you’ve never seen it or experienced it before.

Which means.. none of your thoughts are completely original or created by YOU.

It means that thoughts are just memories of the past being regurgitated onto your present moment.

It also means that your thoughts don’t mean anything about you or the current moment you are in AT ALL.

With this information, you can take the blow to the ego...

OR you can let it free you from your guilt for the random, dark, s**t thoughts that seemingly randomly occur.

Because YOU are NOT your thoughts, nor are you the CHOOSER of your thoughts.

You are the one who hears them. Who lives in the same house with them.

You can stop taking them so personally now 💚

YOU HAVE MORE POWER THAN YOU THINK!!!

Your life is a PHYSICAL REPRESENTATION of your state of being made manifest.

That’s a mouthful, I know. But basically what it means is – your state of being dictates your reality.

Your inner self-concept (what you believe about your OWN self) is made manifest in reality.

And this is the beautiful magic of this life we are in.

Your reality is ALWAYS showing you your state of being that created it.

And your state of being NOW is creating your future reality.

This is why gratitude work is SO important.

If you can look at your life and FEEL (truly feel it) abundant, more abundance will start to be made manifest in your life.

If you look at your life and feel like you are LACKING – that lack will start (or continue) to be made manifest in your life.

This is why they tell us to change our thoughts. If you change what you think about, your life starts to change.

And why is that?

Because your inner beliefs are creating your reality and your thoughts are founded by your inner beliefs.

Beliefs are the source of your thoughts.

Beliefs are the CAUSE and thoughts are the EFFECT.

Beliefs are the state of sickness (or health) and the thoughts are the symptom of that state.

And so we try to reverse engineer our beliefs by addressing the symptom of the beliefs – The thoughts.

We do our daily affirmations.
We drown out negative thoughts with positive ones.
We try to spin everything into a silver lining.

As we start to recognize the inner beliefs we carry, we will start to see how they play out in our thoughts and reActions to them.

We’ll notice the spirals. The rabbit holes our mind loves to go running down when it’s triggered.

We’ll notice our harsh reactions. Our defenses going up.

We’ll notice the things that come out of our mouths – and we won’t like them.

We’ll witness the things our mind does automatically – and we won’t like how it feels.

THIS IS A GOOD THING.

It means that you are seeing your mind play its games. This is a radical step towards the self-empowerment it takes to create your ultimate reality.

If you’re noticing that you don’t like how your mind makes YOU feel – it means that you know that you AREN’T your mind. You’re the one who is hurt by what the mind says and does.

This is HUGE.

You’re on the way.

Hold fast, my friends.

Want to know how I know the Universe is always supporting you? Even when you're being a sh*t??

THE UNIVERSE FAVOURS A LOVING INTENTION!!

The Universe FAVORS the thoughts and beliefs that are laced with LOVE and the TRUTH of what you are – which is PURE light, innocence and abundance - over any negative thought or belief or doubt you could have.

You could have so many negative thoughts every single day, and then have just one or two glimmers of hope that you place your attention on

and the Universe is like YES – lets play THAT hand

Haven’t you noticed that even IF it gets bad…
..really bad…

The good things seem to come in and give you enough hope to go on.

It ONLY gives you what you can handle – the Universe knows your limits and doesn’t want to break you.

It only wants to wake you up to what’s in the way.

It wants to wake you up to SEE the truth of what you are, to lift the veil of forgetting and remind you of your power.

The Universe is already doing its part to give you everything you want.

You need only learn how to align your whole self with what it is that you want.

10 years ago I was a lot of fun.

I drank 6 nights a week.
Life of the party.
Centre of attention.
Loud, big energy, magnetic.
Always laughing.

I also suffered from eating disorders that I hid from everyone.

I also was afraid of being exposed as the soft heart I was on the inside.

‘Tough as nails’ was used to describe me so many times.

I already had started compartmentalizing and stuffing down the things that hurt me.

Had 100 elephants in the room that I refused to acknowledge; hence, drinking 6 nights a week.

I was afraid to be alone.

Always had to keep moving, couldn’t ever sit still.

Couldn’t sit in the quiet because my mind would be forced to hear itself.

Extremism was the number one sport I participated in.

Extreme restriction followed by extreme fallout.

But if you look at the girl in that photo… would you ever guess?

I wouldn’t. And I am her.

That’s how fkn ignorant I was to my own heart.

Now fast forward 10 years-

The work I’ve done…. Is insurmountable.

And the trauma I’ve faced in the in-between of that decade pushed me down the path of shutting off even further

So much so that I finally broke

And CHOSE to start on the path of letting go.
Of healing.
Feeling.
Trusting.

Owning my s**t - because honestly I was kind of a dick a lot of the time.

Dropping the self centered, ego driven sense of self I carried for most of my life.

This transformation, you might look and say I’m beautiful in both.

And ya know what, I don’t disagree. I am.

And I love both versions just as much as the other.

Cause if not for then girl on the left fu***ng it all up…

The girl on the right wouldn’t exist. ✨🙏

Shame is what keeps you stuck.

You are chained by the things you’re ashamed of; shackled by the things you don’t want anyone to know about you.

We are so afraid of being ‘found out’ as not good enough that we try to hide behind as much proof of the opposite that we can get.

Because underneath the fear of not being enough is the fear of lacking love.

We are terrified that we won’t receive love if ’they’ know how unworthy of it we are.

Here’s the truth that your egoic mind CANNOT see: Love never leaves you.

You have never been without Love.

You cannot ever be without Love, because Love is what you ARE.

Your Ego believes that you are separate from Love, thus, if you are living with your mind in the drivers seat- you’ll always be in pursuit of Love.

Seeking it.

As if you can find it outside of you and only get to keep it so long as you are ‘worthy’

So you try so hard to be worthy.

You work hard. You do your best. You try with all your might.

With your mind, which ONLY sees your guilt and misgivings- as the judge, jury, defence, prosecution AND the prison that profits on your suffering.

Can’t you see how the system is rigged?

Can’t you see that as long as you are seeking Love from a system that feeds on Fear- you’ll always lose?

We think we have all this work to do to become enough for the love and acceptance we so desperately crave

But all we’ve ever had to do was relax into the love and acceptance that’s already embracing us

From the inside-out

All we’ve ever had to do is step back from Fear

Forgive ALL that our mind feels ashamed of

Trust that Love is already ours

And remember that we’ve always been enough

Over and over and over again.

Some days I feel like a million bucks.

Some days all I see in the mirror is rolls and jiggles.

And it’s crazy, because I’ve been a professional in this space for 8 years now.

But here we are, with the same gremlin thoughts and the same damn magnified focus on flaws instead of progress that I’ve worked the last 8 years on changing for the better.

This is where mindset REALLY comes into play.

This is where we discover what it ACTUALLY means to have a strong mindset.

It isn’t having a perfect mindset all the time where all of your thoughts are rainbows and self love sunshine and feeling your best 365 days out of the year.

It isn’t just writing down things you’re grateful for and never having another negative self talk moment.

A strong mindset is having the awareness to catch yourself when this is happening.

A strong mindset is catching yourself and implementing the tools you have to address those gremlin thoughts and then find the opposite.

A strong mindset is empowering the opposite.

A strong mindset is stepping outside of yourself to prove those gremlin thoughts wrong.

A strong mindset is intervening on your own self sabotage.

A strong mindset is giving yourself grace, and looking for the next thing you can do within your power to be better next time.

And for me, it was grabbing onto those ‘rolls’ I see in the mirror, and showing myself that it’s just fu***ng skin. ITS JUST SKIN.

For me, it is finishing my workout even though everything inside me was saying to cover up and go home.

For me, it was sharing this with all of you and calling myself out on my own bulls**t.

Your mind is a garden.

Your gremlin thoughts are the weeds and the work never stops to keep that garden thriving.

You must pull the weeds. Every DAY.

Every.Damn.Day.

🤘🏻❤️

So you’ve got this big dream that you can’t stop thinking about… but you have no idea how to get there.

This version of life looks different.

SO different from what you are living in right now.

In this life there is success.

There is peace.

There is love. Both of self and others.

There is you, in the best shape of your life both mentally and physically.

There is FREEDOM there.

Where you are free to live life as you wish to, finally.

Where you are free of the things, people, places and THOUGHTS that hold you down.

I want to invite you to take a good honest look at what you’ve been doing the last 5 years.

Are you still entertaining the people, jobs and places that drain your energy?

Are you still carrying bad habits that plummet your progress in a never ending cycle of ’2 steps forward, 3 steps back’?

Are you still letting the bitch voice run your mind and living in limiting beliefs?

Are you still running in the same circle of friends who tell you all of the above is OKAY?

The reason why you are ‘stuck’ in this version of your life is because you are still the version of you who chooses it.

It might not be what you SAY you want, but ACTIONS truly speak louder than words.

If you want to shift your life and start building one that looks different, you have to start with you.

With your actions.

With your commitment to change.

With your habits.

With your mindset.

You have to grow into the person who lives in and sustains that dream life.

That’s IT.

That’s all you have to do.

And guess what?

As you make moves to become that version of you, the life you’re aspiring for will actually be created simultaneously.

YOU have to be the change in order for your life to change.

Are you ready?

Those of us with the biggest egos go through the hardest, darkest nights.

I was defensive.
Oh boy was I defensive.
Reactive.
Insensitive.
Bordering on rude with my bluntness.
I struggled with empathy.
I locked down every emotion and went cold.

This is how I lived the first 10 years of adulthood.

I was given lesson after lesson
And yet I STILL stuffed it down and buried it.

No feeling.
Letting hurtful s**t hold you down was weakness.
And I was a doer.
I DID things.
Anything to keep my hands and mind busy.

Addictive behaviour.
Binge eating.
Binge drinking.
Workaholic.
Obsessive over goals.
Self destructive so I could prove I could put myself together.

Over and over
Lessons repeated.
Victim mindset activated.
And onward I’d go.

Fake it til you make it.

Until my 13 consecutive months of literal hell and heartbreak.

Trauma after trauma
Loss after loss
Heartbreak after heartbreak.

My big stack of compartmentalized emotions and traumas… came tumbling down.

And I had to feel thru it
I had to look at it in the face
I had to allow it to be what it was
I had to allow ME to be what I was on the inside.

Soft.
Gentle.
Kind.
Sensitive.
Heart full of love.

That ‘tough as nails’ label fu**ed off
And I let go.

And you know what?

I am THANKFUL.

Those of us with the biggest egos go through the hardest, darkest nights.

So that we can be broken right down to the rawness.

Release ourselves from the weight of our internal chains. Cause they… they are heavy.
Even when we choose to not look at them,
they are heavy.

We go thru the darkest nights so that we may break free.
