Life Is a Journey of Spirals Not Circles

Life is a journey, no journey is ever a journey backward, neither is a journey circular forever. Just as I tried and failed. You cannot force your spiritual growth and success. You can only succumb to what it is you need to learn in the moment.

Over a decade ago I got on the path of spirituality and health and healing. I never knew what I would discover but I knew I had to do it for me. I was lost at the time, confused and in a state of despair because I so badly wanted to be happy and healthy but I never was. I would try one technique for a short time and once it didn't work I would jump off it. I was committed to the path of being ill more than healthy. This was a stage in my life when it was circular learning with no end.

You see the thing was I didn't learn what I had to learn at the time, I was forcing everything. I was even forcing how my body should heal. I was so focused on "getting there" that I was chasing circles.

Life is a journey, no journey is ever a journey backward, neither is a journey circular forever. Just as I tried and failed. You cannot force your spiritual growth and success. You can only succumb to what it is you need to learn in the moment. Once you hand it over, allow your body and your intuition to tell you what you need to know when you need to know it. You will transcend spiritual blocks and make your way forward effortlessly. The universe will truly conspire and assist you. It is always showing you signs and pointing you in the right direction. If you follow your body, intuition and the "signs" you will see that the journey is not a circle, but a spiral up and your spiritual growth is not limited to circles but exceeds and transcends into great spirals.

It is this depth that we often forget. Reflect over how far you have come....

And then hand the rest over to the universe, allow the universe to show you your next step in health and healing. And don't forget to watch the signs. Everything is synchronicity. Everything. No exceptions.
