Sometimes, new opportunities are right there to greet you.
But more often than not, there is something that writer Charles Epstein calls the space between stories.
Awareness is like a road map of understanding that can help you feel less alone while facing transition.
Something feels “stuck.”
Feelings of “stuckness” are something everyone can relate to.
Your job isn’t fulfilling, but you don’t know what else you would do.
Your relationship isn’t satisfying, but you are afraid to leave the security of what has been developed.
You feel bored or unenthusiastic, but you could’t figure out how to get out of the rut.
These feelings tend to be physical and energetic versus analytic.
And things can feel out of alignment when caught up in the rat race of life.
This is the perfect recipe forsome serious alone time.
So, if you feel stuck, slow the heck down, and spend some time alone.
Conflict arises in many areas of your life.
Transformation is defined as a thorough or dramatic change in form or appearance.
Are you saying things you have never said to your parents but have always thought?
If you are noticing an abnormal amount of conflict arise in different areas in your life, look deeper.
If you have been invited to make changes, where do you begin?
Rather than worry about the difficulties that are arising, simply attempt to become the observer.
You have a difficult time concentrating or getting “work” done.
Not feeling productive in the traditional sense?
Having a hard time finishing your to-do list or getting through all of your email?
Don’t sweat it.
Our bodies are equipped to handle only so much at any given time.
You’re barely sleeping or sleeping all the time.
These feelings may encourage you to sleep all of the time or mayprevent you from sleeping at all.
The trick to getting through it is simply to listen and respect your body.
Raw emotion starts to spill out of you.
It feels exactly as it sounds.
In the process of transformation, you could’t contain your emotions.
Tears well up in your eyes.
Screams or moans leak out of your mouth.
You laugh uncontrollably and out of context.
c’mon don’t freak out.
Don’t attempt to push these emotions down or shove them in some basement closet.
Allow the feelings to move through you, and I promise…they will pass.
Being vulnerable is powerful, so embrace the wild, raw emotions that live inside of you.
You get signs from the Universe.
Transformation isn’t analytical.
It’s natural and spiritual.
It’s slightly otherworldly.
You feel a sense of calm and inner peace.
When we have reached the peak of a larger transformation, everything insignificant seems to fall away.
In that process of shedding old skins, you become clear and calm and peaceful.
Your body feels soft, tender, and open.
