What Changes When You Remember You Are Sacred

An Invitation to See Yourself and Your Life Differently

For Your Easeful Purpose and Joy

Something that I come back to time and time again is just how sacred life is. Here’s another way to think about this — the ground you stand upon is scared because you are standing on it.

You are sacred; and that's just how it is.

So, there’s no need to measure up to some standard of perfection.

There’s no need to continuously strive or push yourself. There’s no need to check every box.

It’s actually much simpler than that, and far more powerful too.

And when you truly get that you are sacred, not conceptually, but you actually know and feel it deep within you — you’re liberated from those moments when you’re tempted to be self-critical … or believe that you are somehow not enough.

Because if the ground you stand on is sacred, because you are standing upon it, then in this moment … you are divine, holy, and blessed.

You are admired and loved as you are right now.

Consider that there are far more souls than physical bodies.

So, it’s actually a great honor and a privilege to be here in physical form. And you already did something very special to be here now.

You do not have to use personal standards that are not yours, that do not reflect your unique gifts or reasons for being here.

And one of the most important gifts you have is the ability to choose, as in genuinely choosing what you want to experience. Not because you have to accomplish it, think you need to do it “in order to”, or because that’s always how it’s been done.

You can choose, because you genuinely want to have the experience. You can choose, not because you think it’s your job to please others, but you can choose from genuine heartfelt desire.

You chose to be here in the sandbox of time and space at this moment of time. And you naturally refine and amend those choices as you explore this very special environment.

Ultimately, you get to learn more about yourself and the entire universe that is within you.

You chose to be here from purpose and joy.

You are here to dance with life.

And that requires presence and space from constant thinking and striving. Truly dancing … asks you to relax, and be willing to let go of the tight grip. It may seem productive to strive and try hard. But, the opposite is true, and that just exhausts you. Because you can’t receive or give from a closed fist.

Consider what shifts when you’re awake and energized by life … when you see yourself clearly and navigate from your divine inner compass. It’s the movement that often surprises and delights you.

When you’re truly dancing with life, the second-guessing stops.

You stay out of the “figuring it out” loops.

Instead, you just know. You gently notice the signs and get the messages that truly matter to you.

You smile for no reason, and you feel genuinely peaceful.

And when you don’t know how, there’s peace there too. There’s no incessant need to know all of the answers.

You simply allow the moment to be as it is. You allow yourself to be informed by the moment. You let yourself enjoy where you are now.

Because you realize that you have all that you need right now, as you give yourself the space to notice.

Nothing is being withheld.

You don’t need to strain to find the “right” answer, path or perspective. You see from your natural sovereign self.

I don’t know about you, but I can’t think of a better reason to be excited about this journey.

Yes, things happen that we don’t prefer. Loved ones depart physical form. Seasons end, and yet … when you take a deep breath and look up at a tall mighty tree, or close your eyes and feel the breeze on your face, when your mind is still, and you are present to the gift of being here right now … all of the hard stuff falls away.

Grace, ease, and joy become familiar again.

In the end, it’s the present moment, when you actually choose how you want to see yourself and your life – when the power to choose is fully understood and used well.

You get to choose how you want your life to be.

You get to choose how you want to feel.

You get to choose how you want to frame each and every life event.

In fact you already do. Are you truly present to that … more often than not?

I’m not suggesting that you bypass what makes you so beautifully human. I’m saying, that it is the perspectives that we apply to life events that determine whether we suffer or thrive.

So, my dear friend. Here are a few loving reminders.

There are no “have tos” or “shoulds” you must follow.

You have the freedom to live life as you choose moment by precious moment.

And when you say yes to what energizes you, to what expands your joy … you come alive. Because you are living from a deeper truth within you, your version of happy, your version of success, freedom, and love.

The soul of you —she sees.She does not need to compare. She does’n’t feed urgency, contraction, or fear.

She feels and feeds genuine love, especially toward herself first.

She feels kind, she feels alive, and so very happy and joyful.

This is you invitation and reminder to let go of striving.

And allow yourself to dance with the universe.

Because you are blessed. You are sacred. You are powerful.

All through the power of choice.

I offer you this reminder, in case you needed to hear this today.

Much Love,

Elari

I’ve been leading Life On Purpose and Self-Discovery programs since 2003. Prior to that, I led large organizations for 20+ years to the C-Level, helping them align with their dreams and goals. Then I followed my soul nudges in 2003 to start a business that supports high capacity, conscious women (and a few brave men too) to release the conditioned ways so prevalent today … in favor of a soul-led way to work, live, and thrive. If you’re ready to expand what is possible for you, in a graceful, soul-nurturing way, I can help you do that. You can discover how to work with me here.
