You know how fresh and clean the air feels after a good thunderstorm? Well, it’s the same for you after some old stuck patterns get shaken up a bit, making room for a whole new way of being, and helping you live into your potential.
Sometimes, though, you might resist the “shaking up” phase, thinking that it will cause more harm than good. Do you ever do things like this?
- You suck it up, settle and get stuck in your unhappy situations, and then one day you say “I can’t take it anymore!”
- When someone points out something you do that bothers them, you get defensive and say or think, “This is the way I am. Deal with it.”
- You put on a happy face, but underneath you’re miserable, and you don’t know how to change it.
- You think that someday, when life slows down, you’ll try to get around to having that talk with your partner about what’s not working in your relationship.
- You ignore a nagging little health problem, thinking it will just probably go away by itself.
Everywhere we look,
we’re being called to evolve.
Jamie here….
I first began really stepping into this Power of Growing when I was the Director of Hippocrates Health Clinic in Michigan in 1983-84 . Most of the people who would come for our raw food retreats and cleanses had cancer, and oftentimes, we were their last hope.
While the raw food diet can be powerful, I saw something much deeper at work, which ultimately became the driving force for me to develop the Vibrancy Healing Therapeutics.
Here’s what I witnessed: the people that got well were willing to assess what was working or not in their lives. They were courageous enough to face their patterns and the places they’d been stuck, and GROW.
When people were unable, unwilling, or just too frightened to deal with the things in their lives that were not good for them, all the wheatgrass juice in the world, or the chemo or surgery they had before they came to us, usually couldn’t help them.
As I began to really understand this phenomenon, I worked it into our program as I could. I remember one woman who had a tumor the size of an orange. We were talking one day, and I said, “Wow, what an amazing ability you have to grow something. That’s quite a talent! Now, where in your life would you like to grow? How about we discover what that is, and we re-direct your energy to growing that instead?”
She shared with me that she’d been in a toxic work situation for years. Her boss was demeaning, demoralizing, demanding, and she worked herself to the bone, constantly trying to win his approval. We talked about the possibility of change and what it would take for her to do it. She seemed overwhelmed, but knew that growth was imperative.
This was before I’d developed the Vibrancy Healing Therapeutics, so I didn’t have the tools that I do now, which could have helped her get to the root causes of why she was staying stuck in that dysfunctional work situation to begin with, and to shift that pattern at the deepest level.
I wish I could tell you the end of this story, but the truth is, I lost track of her and don’t know where her journey went from there. Did she find a way to finally speak up for herself? Did she leave her job? Did she re-create herself? I really hope so.
A huge take-away from my time at Hippocrates is that growing doesn’t have to be so hard, if you take a proactive role.
Don’t ignore the early warning signs that what you’re doing isn’t working. Don’t keep going down that road of repeating patterns over and over, getting frustrated, angry, or depressed.
You can evolve in a gentle way, noticing challenges when they’re small. If you look for the truth, and allow it to help you transform, you will be able to shed the old ways that don’t really serve you and align yourself with the deeper truth of who you are. The Power of Growing is your ally!
Transform by facing the truth and finding new
ways to break up old stuck patterns.
Tap into the Power of Growing!
Shift those paradigms! When you access the Power of Growing, you will….
- Welcome your challenges, seeing them as perfect opportunities for more growth.
- Feel empowered, hopeful, and open to trying new ways of being and doing things.
- Possibilities expand when you are willing to create yourself anew.
- Dissolve limiting patterns early in the game, so you don’t have to resort to extreme measures when things have gotten out of control.
- Be more willing to try new things, because you realize that staying with the same old, same old doesn’t cut it in your pursuit of a fulfilling life.
- Discover more of who you really are by venturing into new territory.
It’s always tempting to hide out in the safety of the familiar,
but it’s a lot more fun to move toward growth.
Even if you don’t have Red Gold in your Vibrancy Signature, it’s power is still at your fingertips to help you evolve and live into your true potential.
2 Ways to Expand Your Power of Growing:
#1: Sing or say this affirmation until you believe it with your entire being:
“I grow and develop each day!”
#2: Take 7 – 21 drops of Growing Vibrancy Essence daily. This remedy will help you be open to shifting out of old patterns to make way for new growth from the inside out.
Growth and change aren’t always comfortable,
but can definitely be liberating!
“One can choose to go back toward safety or forward toward growth.
Growth must be chosen again and again;
fear must be overcome again and again.”
~ Abraham Maslow
