Let the Universe be your Guide
My friend Karen says I’m the best “manifester” she knows. But sometimes we can manifest as hard as we can and what we are wanting to happen just doesn’t come to fruition! It is times like that we must understand that the Universe sometimes has other plans for us.
It’s fine to set your intention, focus on it, and take action to achieve it. But here’s the important part: I had to let go of the specific outcome. I had a plan for Holistic Path, and I worked so hard to make that “dream” come true. I became so focused on that dream that I didn’t see any other possibilities. I was trying so hard to make the business fit into my plan that I was choking the life out of myself. I was not enjoying my work and had lost sight of the original intention of the center…to offer Holistic services to as many people as possible. It became overwhelmingly stressful. My health was suffering. When my dog’s health began to suffer as well, I realized I needed to change my focus. And then the words spoke to me… Let the Universe be your Guide.
Sometimes we can become so obsessed with achieving a particular result that we unintentionally block the natural flow of things. That’s when you just need to let go & “Let the Universe be your Guide”.
Once I did that, the Universe took over and showed me a new path, a better path, a less stressful path. Letting go didn’t mean I was giving up. I still believed the Center was a great idea. I still believed we could help people. Once I let go of my original dream, the universe brought about a different way…yes even a better way. “Let the Universe be your Guide!”
The changes at Holistic Path for Wellness have left me with more time to pursue my own interests. I am training to become a Reiki Master and will then go on to specialize in Animal Reiki, which I will offer at the Center. Brody is going to get certified as a Therapy dog, allowing us to visit Senior Facilities & Hospitals so he can do what he does best…spread the love.
I encourage you to set your intentions. Pour your energy into it and take any action you need to achieve your goals. But once you’ve set your intention, release any attachment to the Universe and let them unfold. Trust that the universe knows best and will show you the way.
