In Episode 15, we are talking about life and soul lessons - and boy, have there been many! We focused on sharing a few and our take on what life lessons are all about, and the teachings they provide. Below are a few key areas from our discussion.
THE LESSONS LIFE TEACHES US
Ah the beauty of life lessons - life gives us the experience and we don’t learn the lesson until AFTERWARDS. Hence that beautiful phrase - ‘in hindsight’ or ‘on reflection…’
Do certain lessons revisit you? Maybe under different circumstances but the lesson is the same one trying to get through! How do we learn our lessons? Is it about changing our perspective?
Some of the lessons we discuss include - trying to give from an empty well? You must make sure you are looking after yourself, listening to your needs so that you are in the best position to help and give to others. Sometimes it’s just about doing little things for yourself - giving a little self-love!
Understanding that you can control how you feel and what you think! Sound unrealistic? Sibby shares her experience that brought her to the realisation that you have the ability to choose another thought. It’s hard to put into practice but once you can do this, it can be life changing! You have the power not to feel shit!
Be mindful of the gap between reaction and response. Sally and Sibby go slightly off topic whilst discussing this with references to the onionverse (oh boy) train stations and the word moist! Bear with us…it should give you a laugh!
Do you feel you have to learn the hard way? Revisit the lessons many times over until you finally get it? Maybe you have to hit rock bottom before something shifts or changes for you? We are so vast, expansive, majestic beings - full of shadows and light. Sally discusses how you can use creative expression to get in touch with these areas of yourself to learn life and soul lessons.
You can choose how you create your life - things happen through you and for you. You have power in how your life is created - you are the author, director and producer of your life. This can feel like a daunting notion, but it can also be empowering, especially if someone else is writing your own story for you!
You can’t control what other people think of you. It’s none of your business what they think of you. It can help you sidestep judgements from others. You can’t be everyone’s cup of tea. That helps you to embrace and embody being your own uniquely expressive self. You attract the right people by being who you are through your vibration. This life lesson helps with emotional resilience.
Be in communion and connection with the wisdom aspect of yourself to help you understand and learn the lessons so you don’t get caught up in them.
There is no rule book for life. You live your life how you want to live your life, trust your inner self and creative magic and where it wants to take you. Don’t try and abide by other people’s rules. If you know your heart and you know what’s right - that’s your rule book. Soul enquiry - look at what might be influencing you or what rules you may have adopted from others and if it’s not serving then chuck it out!
