Hello Reader,
I hope you had a lovely week and a powerful New Moon, and that you are leaning into what you called in for this phase of the Moon.
Last week, I attended a three-day breathwork workshop that used breath to heal and enter a meditative, if not altered, state to access internal clarity. While there were many things I took away, the breathwork I did on the day of the New Moon was particularly transformative.
For years, I have been aware of a karmic, psychological, and spiritual block to fully stepping into my personal power, rooted in fear of how it will be received. The insight I gained last week was that, rather than seeing my higher self as "powerful," I saw her as Sparkly. Engaging with my "powerful" self immediately triggers walls and internal resistance. But connecting with my Sparkly side feels engaging, expansive, and exciting.
As we move into this coming week, spend some time reflecting on how you might reframe a positive part of yourself you've struggled to own so it feels expansive rather than intimidating. What is your "sparkly"?
