Getting Unstuck!
By
Natasha Rosewood
According to the Buddhists, between January
29 and February 12 is the worst time of the year. “Don’t start anything
new during this ending period,” they advise. “It won’t last.” February,
however, can be a great time to meditate on new beginnings. But what if
you have no direction? What if you are STUCK?
You are
probably in good company. Psychic or not, sometimes my own future is
indefinable. I just don’t know. Or that’s what I tell myself anyway.
Some hidden fear may be lurking in my unconscious mind and creating a
smokescreen.
Metaphorically, energy or “chi” is like a flowing river. When we feel
stuck, the flow of that river is caught in an eddy. Our chi is going
around and around in circles and being sucked down into a bottomless
vortex.
Remember,
though, this is only your mind telling you that you are stuck. Energy by
its very definition means motion and, therefore, cannot stay still.
“Stuckness” is just an illusion and sometimes, merely a judgment of
where you have not yet arrived. Your ego mind, your conscious
waking-state chatters at you, berating you constantly with “I should be
doing. . . ” or “what’s wrong with me?” or “I don’t know…” et al.
But
stuckness does not have to be suffered. It can be celebrated.
The good
news is that feeling stuck is part of the human process and, believe it
or not, serves a purpose. Stuckness is about standing still for a while
and allowing us to take stock. In our Western culture and our headlong
rush towards success and then death, (not always in that order) we do
not allow ourselves permission to not know our destination. And if you
resist your stuckness, it will only expand.
So just
for today, give yourself permission to see your situation differently.
Sit down, put your feet up, take a load off and read the following ten
tips to honoring stuckness.
Accept
what is now. Everything is in perfect divine right order. Therefore, you
are not stuck, just resting.
Let your
life unfold naturally. If you are unable to make a decision, it means
you do not have all the information yet. Wait and trust. Ask for help.
Consult your psychic, coach, counselor, spirit guides or angels. Be open
to a different perspective.
Throw an
“idea party.” Brainstorm, exchange ideas, give and receive support.
Invite
someone you admire to be your mentor. (Most people love to give advice!)
Recognize
that you are not stuck, merely regrouping and preparing for a new life.
Be thankful for the pause and know that what is yours will come to you.
Decide to
see your life as a movie and write your dreams into your script. Be
honest with yourself. What do you really, really want? Pursue the most
exciting and/or scary options.
9. Feel
the fear and, even if you are you terrified of success or happiness, do
it anyway. That’s the time when you will feel really ALIVE!
10. Take
one action every day towards that bigger picture. No matter how small
the deed, you are still moving forward.
And you
are no longer stuck.
