Aligning with the soul

Have you ever felt like you're on the brink of a profound change, one that reshapes not just your thoughts but your very essence?

One of the most beautiful gifts of self-work is the consciousness upgrades you receive. Each time you make a core change—whether it’s shifting your beliefs, adjusting your attitude, or altering your thinking patterns—you’re choosing to become a new version of yourself. This conscious choice aligns you more closely with your core self, often referred to as your soul, true self, or highest self, and brings you into a deeper state of alignment.

The moment you step into the new you, everything that is you shifts. On all levels of your being, you are being altered so that all layers are in harmony with your newly chosen identity. Your energy field is cleansed from outdated patterns and whenever our energies are rewired, something equally exciting happens: our brains are also rewired.

A change in consciousness inevitably affects all layers of our being, including the physical. By shedding old thinking patterns, the neurons in our brains form new connections that align with our upgraded energy and expanded consciousness.

Very recently, I went through such a profound shift, integrating a new attitude and mindset into my being (I'll share more about that in another post). These experiences often plunge me into a deep, almost comatic sleep from which I wake up hours later, stiff and aching, not quite back in this world. Following these intense sleeps, I usually endure headaches that make my entire body hurt and render thinking or doing anything nearly impossible. This is the physical manifestation of the changes happening on an energetic level: my brain is being rewired. New neurological connections are forming as I transform my way of thinking and feeling.

The process then continues with the body itself, as the newly formed brain connections lead to physiological changes. This is where the body's capacity to amaze truly shines. I lay on my bed for over an hour and a half, feeling immense waves of energy surge through me, causing my body to tremble, shake, and move in whatever way it needed. It's a sight I’m glad no one witnesses, as it can look quite jerky and uncontrolled. However, these movements are a deep release of tension and the removal of physical blockages. Surrendering to these flows can be challenging because we've been conditioned to tense up to prevent uncontrolled movement. Ironically, it's this very tension that creates so many physical constraints. By allowing the body to move freely, it can finally release and shake off these limitations.

These processes are reminiscent of the healing I underwent following brain injuries. The constant, sharp pains that persisted 24/7 until the process was complete felt similar. Despite the agony, I always feel grateful – especially as the pain subsides I gotta admit – knowing that I've evolved further into the person I strive to be — the human I truly am.

If you're going through similar experiences, remember that these consciousness upgrades are part of your journey to becoming your true self. Embrace the changes, trust the process, and know that each step brings you closer to the you that you are meant to be.
