resistance & surrender

The theme this week is surrender. Before we talk about surrender, let’s talk about resistance. What is resistance really? Resistance is simply an expression of fear.

Where in your life are you resisting? What are you resisting?

As I continue to learn, grow and move through resistance, I can see that fear is not here to stop us. It is here to show us where we need to surrender and plug back in to the truth of who we are.

Fear is here to show us where we need to hold a higher vision for ourselves.

The truth is, we all just want to feel good! My question for you is: what if feeling good actually lies beyond the things that feel uncomfortable? Beyond the resistance. What if you could feel better than you ever imagined by letting go of the things, the habits, the resistance that might in fact be keeping you stuck. This is where surrender comes in.

This week if you are experiencing resistance, invite in surrender and watch what happens.

Wishing you a week that is lit up from the inside out!

Courageous Curiosity

Where are you feeing poked, prodded or uncomfortable AF?

I believe these are clues as to what corners we need to shine some light on to. These are not just sh*tty things happening to us. These are OFG‘s baby! (Opportunities for growth;)

If we believe we should feel perfect and hunky-dory all of the time, well then we’re in for a painful ride. The belief that everything should feel good let me down a dark hole of feeling rotten. Enter addiction, shame, guilt, and in over all shit storm that lasted several years.

What I know to be true now is that on the other side of darkness is the light. The light I was chasing let me into the darkness. Now I see the darkness, the contrast if you will, as an opportunity to heal, grow, shift, and expand, and honestly it’s a completely different experience.

The ability to lean into the fear is what will allow us to come out on the other side.

What is the yucky feeling, whatever it may be, here to show you and teach you? What are you avoiding or denying? It could be something as simple as denying ourselves whatever it is we truly desire. These things don’t have to be gigantic life-changing ah-ha’s! Sometimes they are a simple knowing within yourself.

Perhaps these triggers are here to show us where we can take baby steps towards more. More compassion. More peace. More alignment. More joy!

Because Joy doesn’t always live in the LOL‘s, and bright shiny days. Often Joy lives beyond the things that we have the opportunity to move through. Often joy requires courageous curiosity. The next time you have a yucky feeling, can you ask it what are you here to show me? Then, listen for the answer.

Here’s to being courageously curious.

On Joy

On Joy.

It isn’t always easy.

Sometimes you need to make time for it, schedule it, dig deep for it.

Sometimes you need to hunt for it. Sometimes you can only get a glimpse of it. Sometimes it’s buried. Deeply. Under years of forgetting. But off in the distance you hear something calling your name. It’s Joy.

Joy has been waiting for you to remember. To trace your steps back to where you left yours.

Underneath all of the "shoulds" and the "musts". Joy been waiting for you. Along with the dreams left strewn about.

It’s time to open wide and feel the gurgles of a new life begin to bubble within.

Looking forward to the future with the strength of one who knows the truth within. Who has earned the strength and won the biggest battle. Who dares to dream even wilder with newfound powers.

Of Joy. And Dreams.

Childhood Dreams

There is Hope

I am here to tell you there is hope.

No matter how much darkness you are experiencing, there is always light. Even if you can’t see it. No matter how broken things may feel.

There is hope.

You are still worthy of everything you’ve always wanted. You still get to dream big.

No matter how far off the path you feel, all roads lead back to the same place. Where limitless possibilities exist. I’m talking about the true you.

You may not feel it right now, but trust me when I say there is light. Know that you are not alone. I see you. Whole and complete, imperfectly perfect you.

You Are Supported

Hi! I’m Jillian

You Are Enough

Enough. You are enough. You are exactly where you are meant to be. You have nothing to prove.

You are brave, and capable and strong.

You are smart, and loving, and kind.

You are beautiful, and caring, and brilliant.

You are a light that shines so very brightly.

And sometimes you forget how much you matter.

And that’s okay. Because we all do. And the truth is, you that you matter. Very much. There is nothing you must do. No one you must be. This world needs you exactly as you are. Even if you're not sure who you are. Simply showing up in every moment is enough. Your particular magic exists in every inhale and every exhale.

The answers are in every changing moment.

You are life. And you are incredible.

Feel it move through you.

Swirling in and out of you.

 Flowing throughout you and everything around you.

The secret to everything lies within each moment.

Simply bring your breath to it. And you will have done enough. It's time to let go and breathe. To live. To be. The light is calling.

It's time to remember that you are the light

Breathe

Hello Friend!

How are you feeling today?

If you’re open to it, I’d like to invite you to come back to yourself today and take a couple of minutes just for you.

A couple of minutes simply to breathe. Inhaling to the count of 4. Exhaling to the count of 4. Or longer if your lungs can handle it. Matching your inhales to your exhales and coming back to yourself through the breath. Just being right here, right now. Can you do this for 10 breaths? If you can, give yourself this gift. Notice how it feels simply to be with the breath, with yourself, with life. Here you are. Right in the middle of everything you've done, and everything you're thinking about doing. Here you are simply being. Beautiful isn't it? And so simple to do.

This week, commit to coming back to yourself for 10 breaths a day. See how it feels. Let us know how it's going for you in the group. There are tons of incredible people just like you in there.

To Our Joy!

divine trust

I Have A Message For You….

Trust in your highest self. In life. During the times when it is least easy to do it. Trust some more. If you are lost, trust you are being guided to the most loving place. That there is a better way and you are being shown what it is one step at a time. Close your eyes. Put your hand to your heart. Breathe. And trust. 

You are freaking incredible.
