Paris
Two weeks ago, my husband and I hopped on a plane for a romantic weekend in Paris.
It was our first trip sans Porter.
If you’ve been following along, you know I have a complicated but beautiful relationship with Paris.
Every trip, I feel like I meet a different version of myself.
On one trip, I was a stressed out restaurant owner in a struggling marriage.
While there, I was devoured by anxiety, insecurity and feelings of not belonging there.
It was then that I decided Paris was an awful place.
On another trip, I returned as the mama of a one year old, and felt like I truly belonged.
I thought maybe Paris wasn’t so bad after all…
On this trip was the version of myself that is so deeply embodied that I didn’t give a thought to whether or not I belonged wherever I was…I just did.
On every trip, I learn a different facet of who I am, but this trip I really fell in love with myself, and the life I have created.
On this trip, I fell in love with Paris.
And this time, I was really struck by how aligned I am with what I teach.
Because I really am guided by the stars, and I am constantly taking earthly actions to get to where I want to be.
I spend a lot of time every month getting clear on what I want to create, how I want to create it, and what I need to let go of to get there.
I do this by working with the energy of the Moons, as well as by constantly reflecting and playing with scenarios in my meditation practice.
And I use my meditation practice and a lot of other tools I’ve gathered along the way to help me regulate my nervous system, because I know that if I’m not healthy in that regard, the path ahead will be a lot rockier.
The beautiful byproduct of this is that because my nervous system is regulated, I am not as triggered by the people around me, or the things that happen that would otherwise knock me off my focus.
I am in right relationship with all the relationships in my life, and I am able to use the things that happen to work FOR me and my dreams.
And I am constantly, and devotedly, envisioning and embodying my Future Self.
And then when a trip like Paris comes up, I realize I have truly become my Future Self, and now I am daring to call in things the version of me that owned a restaurant never would have even known to dream of.
It’s fun for me to go on these trips, and then to come home and dive right back into my work - especially when that work includes my group coaching program SHIFT.
Because in SHIFT, we have Five Pillars that guide the flow of the year - and I am able to see in great detail how - when practiced and applied - they work.
