August '14 Energy Update - Hope Van Vleet

Slow & Steady 
 
Hello!

Happy Summer to you :)  I always love August.  It feels like summer is grounded and I can relax into the sunshine and into a slower pace of life.  I hope you're enjoying yourself when and how you can!

So...slower pace of life?!  What does that mean this August in 2014?  Most of us are processing big changes as doors close and open in surprising or unexpected ways.  It certainly doesn't feel slow!

These changes are showing up in the form of communication- someone tells us something that changes the way we operate in the world, someone brings us information we need to hear, but are hesitant or nervous to act on.

The hesitation or nervousness brought up in us is most likely due to the past- past trauma or negative experience that repels us from acting on new information.  It's the past coming up so we can let it go and complete the healing cycle.

The information/opportunites coming our way this month are all about stepping up and out into the next version of ourself, a more empowered self.  This is a bit scary and intimidating.  It's a leap of faith off a cliff.

We might know intellectually we're okay, that everything is alright.  But our heart's are nervous or a bit fearful that we'll be okay.

This is normal, all a part of growth and moving to our next level.  That doesn't mean easy necessarily.

We're all familiar with growing the hard way.  And we'll do just about anything to avoid it...until we find ourselves in it, feeling disempowered and just trying to get through it.  This are the energies we're clearing this August.

Tips to help you grow the easy way, especially in this August energy:

-Slow and steady!  Go slow. Be deliberate.  Think it through.  There's no rush and no reason to act fast.

-Rest! This is big energy moving through our physical body.  It can tire us out quickly.  Be sure to take naps, take it easy, go to bed on time whenever you can.  Big healing happens when you sleep and your body needs it now.

-Ground!  Whatever method you use to ground, please put some extra energy into this.  It will greatly help you stay aligned with where these creative energies are taking you, helping you pick up on the cues in your life.

-Pray/Meditate!  Focusing on increasing you strength and endurance, connect with the Divine to re-fuel yourself.  What we're processing requires deeper strength... and it's available if we ask for it all allow it in.

On the very bright side, we're moving into a life of our dreams, our vision. We're that much closer to living our intentions and visions because the energy we're releasing is/was the block to these visions and dreams.   

That is what is so confusing: things are better than ever and also uncertain or shaky.  We're letting go of the 'uncertain and shaky' and embodying the 'better than ever'.

To help you ride this out just put a little energy into growing the easy way and prepare yourself for a bit of energetic cliff jumping.  

It's easier than you think and you'll absolutely love the pay off  ;D

Wishing you many opportunities and open doors...just enough to scare you, but not too much ;D
