St. Val's - are you there yet?

The importance of loving oneself FIRST cannot be overemphasized. I met a client yesterday who at age 53 is still 'finding' himself. Power to him, I say -- better late than never! My clients are often angry when we work together to help them find their various blocks that prevent them from living life authentically -- this stuff, they tell me, should be taught in kindergarten. 99.9% of families are dysfunctional say the statistics, and I wholeheartedly endorse that - and NO, don't tell me what a wonderful childhood YOU had, and how great YOUR parents were because there is no co-relation between any of that and the learnings our souls came here for. Our childhood is never great -- our souls choose the families they'll be born into, where they'll receive the learnings they came for. To a greater or lesser degree we all suffer the existential pain, which if we successfully move through, unites us with our soul-purpose -- and after muddling through the first 3 or 4, and sometimes 5decades of our lives, some of us want to make sense of it all. And although the entire jouney has its high and low points, the magic of finally 'arriving' where you were always meant to be, is unfathomable till experienced - the sense of freedom, of joy, of lightness, of experiencing the Light, of knowing without doubt that YOU ARE LOVED, YOU ARE SAFE, and ALL IS WELL.

To search for, and find, this state - the veritable heaven on earth, requires a high level of self-love. What are you going to choose?

Happy Valentine's Day...
