041 - Winds of Aeolus — Blowing Away Resistance on the Path to Love (End of Season 4)
Manage episode 342149212 series 3339067
Have you ever had the experience of being just about to arrive at your destination, and then being thrown completely off?
It can be so confusing to take one step forward and then 65 steps back ...
… just when you were celebrating all your hard work and thinking you were “graduating”.
But the reality is that many great spiritual and mythological traditions show us that we are often presented with the biggest obstacle right before we reach our destination. The mirage in the desert, the Last Temptation, the story of Aeleous and Odysseus…
Personally I call it “uncanny valley” when I hit it myself, because it feels uncannily like the ground opens up and swallows me whole … I enter a parallel universe of gloom. I've learned to welcome it, to see it as grist for the mill, to lean into my Unconscious Vows whenever it hits me, which it does, in various areas of my life.
Especially in love, it hit me hard, two weeks before I met my partner I was scraping myself off the floor, thank goddess I am surrounded by coaches and healers, I recognised the signs and leaned in hard to the right support. I usually go all in.
And I'm glad I did. Gosh I'm so so glad I did not give up then. What if I'd stayed in the valley and missed him as he passed by!!
Do you relate? It is a very common aspect of the human experience, to experience massive resistance AFTER we've done the work and JUST before we make our biggest breakthrough.
This is why it's weird to our minds, because we hit this point AFTER we've done all the work, and we “think” we're sorted.
In the final podcast episode for Season 4, I speak through this actually very predictable step on the path to love, our chance to shrug off old codependent (or less-than) relational dynamics for good and step into self-sovereignty and taking a stand for real love.
Don't give up, dejected and disappointed, all on your own.
Let this resistance be grist for the mill!
Listen to the podcast.
