Reclaiming My Spirit

FLOURISH was my word theme for 2025, but a large part of that has fallen into reclaiming lost parts of myself.
Pairing that with working through some big health challenges, it has been an incredible lesson about boundaries and energy exchange.
My monkey mind is easily caught up in the doing, the mimicking, checking the boxes of the hazy 'ground rules to life'. It's a semi-permanent forgetfulness of what it is to live life with a free spirited heart.
Parts of my upbringing encouraged me to live by comparison, do what those around you are doing and consistently pivot to ensure you stay there. It was never about, learning about what honestly works for you. The whole point is to carve out your own space in this existence, whereas we're all have been trying to squeeze into the same place as everyone else - and then we wonder why we feel discontent with our progress.
I've been struggling to conform myself to a shape that is discontent with my own soul and it has been no wonder that my body has been screaming at me to find change. To pivot. To reclaim something bigger that what I am blindingly led to believe.
Putting faith in the uncomfortable is no easy feat, and one that requires the constant reminder of courage. The courage to accept that failure is acceptable. It is the permission for you to acknowledge - 'maybe this isn't for me' and to delve deeper to what does encourage you to feel uncomfortable and ask questions.
That's not to say failure has it's place, sometimes failure is what you need to show you that you're not quite ready for it yet. That there is more for you to discover before you can move forward > but it is also a reminder that it is an opportunity to side step and pivot. To look at all of it from another perspective. To really discover in your heart, is this the path you wish to claim?
Learning to flourish isn't all about success, it's about growing and thriving in unexpected circumstances. Growing roots where no-one ever considered or expected. It's the innate knowledge of knowing when to bloom, ad even when the might not seem right, doing it anyway and absolutely owning it.
This is part of the reclamation of my spirit.
A removal of the second guessing, the direct questions of how this contributes to the main-stream societal expectation. It's knowing that intuitively led creativity sets the bar of conscious intelligence. A levelling up of our esoteric existence.
What we contribute to this world, via our relationships and participation in society is all frequency. It's all a collection of particles functioning at various densities within the universes.
How we choose to evolve, grow, learn and ultimately flourish determines the level at which we choose to experience this life.
And what I am choosing, is to trust in myself and my own capabilities. To feel confident in each step I take and the energy in which I participate.
To begin - I want to share my own creations, wholeheartedly, in a way that resonates with me, and my own authentic self.
And in the journey, share my thoughts along the way. Peace and Love, Sharai xx
