Getting Out of Your Own Way Tip #7
I hope these posts are making it more clear how we ourselves are the creators of what is standing in our way of Love, joy and fulfillment and how we are the ones who can change that and get out of our own way. The boulders that are blocking the Divine Feminine Flow are endless – yet they all have a similar flavor.
I am doing my best to expose this flavor to make it easier for you to recognize it in your life. When you make the unconscious conscious, the game is over. Then it is just a matter of recognizing it over and over again, in all the areas – and there are many flavors of resistance – where you are resisting something.
It Takes Time
Yesterday’s post about resistance exposed the flavor of this linchpin, so now the work to recognize it can begin. This work takes time – it takes time – it takes time …. oh, did I mention that it takes time? Well, it actually takes a lot of time and commitment to liberate all of yourself – all these frozen parts stuck in the contractions of resistance and lost in the memories of the past.
- it takes time to notice when you feel stuck
- it takes time to remember what to do when you feel stuck,
- it takes time to apply new skills when you feel stuck
- it takes time to stop habitual patterns
- it takes time to become willing to step into a new way of Being.
- And it is worth every step on your way, I promise!
The Many Flavors Of Resistance
Resistance shows up in many, many flavors. Recognizing them is the first step.
Over the past week we mentioned flavors like shame, blame and not loving yourself. We can easily add attachment, fear, hate, greed, and a belief in lack and limitation to this list. We all have our unique flavor where we have been conditioned to park our attention (the innocent sponge analogy). The flavor itself is really irrelevant as long as you know how to recognize it and then remember how to back out of this stuck place. If you need a reminder on how to do that, please read the previous posts on Getting Out of Your Own Way again. (Pause – ….)
Instead of going into detail with each flavor, I am more inclined to emphasize the commonality of the flavor of resistance in them all. The resistance to the present moment, to your feelings, your circumstances, your body, your lack, your partner or lack thereof, your age, etc.
Once I started recognizing this resistance in myself, it became obvious that all my problems stem from resisting something in my life.This insight gave me choice and the feeling of empowerment to do something about it – and I did.
Infinite Possibilities Are Available Here And Now
It’s an ongoing process that keeps opening up deeper and deeper layers inside while expanding further and further into the Field of Infinite Possibilities …
Once you start shifting from resisting to allowing, breathing, listening and loving, you dissolve the boulders that block the natural unfolding and expression of the Divine Feminine Flow. This gives the Flow access to you and me with new possibilities to grow from – abundantly, lovingly, joyfully, peacefully, wisely, expansively, delightfully …. a never-ending unfolding of the infinite possibilities ready to express themselves as you and me. Our ‘job’ is to Be open and receptive.

Tomorrow we’ll start turning our attention to the Flow and get to know that part a little better.
And I am also going to share a poem with you about this Field of Infinity Possibility.
Stay tuned….
If you feel a little lost amongst all these boulders and need a little help, you can always sign up with me for a free Discovery Session, where we spend 30 min on the phone helping you see more clearly where you are now (parked your attention) and where you would like hang out instead, and then of course uncovering what gets in your way of your new hangout. If you feel the need for a guide in your exploration and learn more about Self Love, we can take it a step further. Don’t resist the need for help. It’s just another boulder and I honestly can say, that I wouldn’t Be who I am today without plenty of support along the way. You can learn more about my work as a Self Love Mystic and Mentor at DivineFeminine Flow and if you feel ready just go here to sign up for a free 30 min discovery sessions.

I so appreciate you mentioning that it takes time to shift one’s perception Pernilla and to become liberated! Change does take time. And at the same time, one small shift, one small step in a new direction shifts everything! I look forward to reading your poem tomorrow! Thank you Pernilla for such an informative blog post!

Oh, boy, that time-thing. Sometimes it feels like nothing is changing even when we do everything we can to make it so. But internally we are shifting and changing and the outside seems to be a little slow to catch up sometimes. And yes, one shift does change everything, even if we can’t see it right away.
