Episode 41: How to stop wishing for your old life back and move forward with healing

In today’s episode, I want to offer some guidance about how to move forward in your healing, even if you still want some things to change. The reason this is so important is because when you're stuck in this energy of, I wish things were different, or I wish I could change this. It keeps your energy in your thoughts stuck in the past. Topics discussed in this episode: * Moving through the energy that keeps us in the past * Why things may feel hard (I.E. cooking, eating, etc) * What’s preventing us from moving forward * How to feel aligned and connect with your truth and power Key takeaways: * Entertaining fear based thoughts get us nowhere * The past takes not just out futures away but also the present moment * We may not be able to go back in time, but we can move forward Action step: It's really about moving forward with all of those realities as an integrated part of your experience. By living for you, you're making amazing, you know, beautiful creating blessings in your life forever. Lauren said: “Because when you can learn to truly accept what is, that is when you can move forward and create what's next.” “We can honor those realities and still live the healthiest, happiest, best life that you want.” Thanks so much for listening!

Like, cause that is so me, I genuinely voiced like, I'm I wasn't angry. I wasn't, you know, there wasn't any, I wasn't sad. I was genuinely frustrated. Like I always used to feel like there was some, there was something inside of me that I wasn't allowing to come out.
