Choose Honesty Over Habit

We all know how it feels to do something that we really don't want to do - and it doesn't feel good! That knot that appears in your gut the moment you start thinking about whatever it is? That's trying to tell you to take a step back and really feel into it - is this really what you want?
Whether it be meeting friends for coffee, accepting an invitation to be somewhere you don't want to be - even a marriage proposal that you feel you 'have' to accept because the guy is too nice for you to be able to hurt him by saying "No", even though your entire body is screaming for you to walk away.
Where in your life are you compromising who you are to keep the peace?
Are you staying stuck where you’re unhappy because you don’t want to rock the boat? Are you truly happy, or do you say that you’re ‘not unhappy’ – which is far from being the same thing?
We are all being encouraged right now to let go of old habits and choices that keep us stuck and safe, so that we can move forward with the confidence of knowing that we’re following our hearts, living authentically and through honesty not habit.
It's not always easy to admit that your job/relationship/friendships/home no longer resonates with who you’re becoming, but once you’ve become aware that something isn’t working in your life it’s impossible to go back and convince yourself that it’s ok, that you don’t need to change anything.
All that will happen is that you will be shown more and more often the reasons why this no longer works for you.
How to break free?
The challenge is having the courage to make the necessary changes, to free yourself from everything that is holding you back so that you can live the life you were born to live.
And it can be scary. Damned scary! When you know that your mind/ego is always going to fill your head with fear-based thoughts, to try and keep you safe, small and in your comfort zone it becomes easier.
When you know that your heart holds your Truth, your Peace, your True Path, when you put all of your Trust in what you feel in your Heart, in your gut, you will find your freedom.
True freedom comes when you break free from the chains of your thoughts, drop down into your heart and find the courage to take the steps to make those changes your soul is so desperately crying out for.
The next step...
It's all well and good facing your Truth, realising where you've outgrown your relationship, job or friends - whatever it may be, but now you need to heal your fears: abandonment, rejection, being alone, poverty - whatever it is that is holding you back from moving on in alignment with your Truth.
Lucky for you it's becoming easier and easier to release all of these fears. All you need do, once you're aware of them, is declare:
"I (your name) now release all fears and energetic cords tying me to the fear of ........... I release these through all times, dimensions, across all lifetimes and timelines for now and for always. They are gently released with Love and Gratitude and returned to the Light in the most appropriate way. It is done. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you".
Take a moment to feel it all falling away, visualise it if you wish and know it is done. You can do this as many times as you feel until you feel that the fear is gone.
I should add that whilst it may be easier for some, this can be more complicated depending on the source of the fears coming up. If you feel you would benefit from guidance and healing please get in touch!
Now move into Honesty over Habit...
If you’re aware of where you’re holding on through habit not honesty then it’s time to make those changes – or the Universe will make them for you, and it will appear chaotic and messy because you’re not making the choice consciously for yourself.
Releasing these things consciously is infinitely easier than running out of time and the Universe removing them for you!
Take that first step today – be brave enough to admit what’s not longer working in your life, release your fears and trust that you are supported in every way, and that every step you take towards living through Honesty not Habit is a step towards Yourself.
