Shedding Our False Layers
Shedding. Just like a snake sheds its skin, a crab it’s shell, a dog it’s fur, spiders and caterpillars their exoskeletons, humans physically shed their skin too!
But this is not the kind of shedding I want to discuss. I would like to dive into the topic of shedding the layers in our energetic and/or auric field.
As with all sorts of shedding, whether it be physical or energetic, there is always growth occurring in this process. It is many times referred to as peeling off the layers, just like an onion. I could refer to any one of the examples above, but the tree in this photo I took epitomizes how shedding occurs in our energy.
For me, this is such an accurate representation of how we, as humans, shed our patterns, cycles, conditioning, programming, and behaviours that no longer serve us from our energy field and DNA.
With healings, self/inner work and awareness, there are parts of you that shed quickly. There are other parts that take some time and have to be revisited over and over again. And there are yet others that hang on in the background until the ones that have presented themselves first, the ones that need to be addressed and healed, are cleared. This process is what gives us the strength, courage, and awareness to confront what is there waiting for us.
We can deal with the deeper layers when we are truly ready to look at, see and let ourselves be revealed while seeing through new eyes. The new perspectives that only healing, growth and experience can give.
Bits of us are uncovered, revealed, and discovered at the right time in order to allow the new growth that is needed. With every layer that we shed there is always a breakthrough, some are small and some bigger and more profound than others. But they all allow you to grow and evolve… if you choose to.
The importance of the unfolding of this multi-layered process is that it gives you time to address and find the learning in whatever has come up for you at that point in time. From personal experience, I highly recommend receiving healing sessions during this time as it is very, very beneficial. Why?
Because you have the practitioner’s insight and guidance that they have gained from their own experiences in life and through assisting so many in the career path they have chosen, known as Energy Healing.
You also have their objectivity, all of which will open new pathways and equip you with newfound awareness.
That awareness becomes a new empowered tool called knowledge. You then apply action, which takes you to stopping and letting go of the old and the beginning of creating new patterns and behaviours, physically, mentally, spiritually, and energetically. When you eventually integrate all of this into your being, that then becomes your wisdom. This is why more evolved humans become so wise, due to going through this process over and over again, digging deep within to learn and find the answers and solutions to their own issues and elevate their consciousness.
This is our natural process of evolution. And just like this tree, it can be pretty damn messy, and a not so pretty sight at times, and that is ok. This is a completely natural process and that’s what makes it so beautiful.
Because it strips you bare, revealing rhe opportunity of growth to rebuild belief in your own potential.
The smoothness of where the tree has already shed what it doesn’t need is how our energy flows when we shed the old and become more aligned. It flows.
The part that is partially exposed is still in the process of letting go of the old, whereas the exposed has already integrated the lesson and new growth has begun.
And the rough part has either begun to crack a little or still laying intact and dormant, patiently waiting for it’s time to come to the forefront of its owner’s awareness.
This is such a divine and intimate experience. One that leads you to discovering and rediscovering yourself beyond belief and becoming the very best version of yourself, every time! One that you never ever imagined.
You build a belief and trust within yourself because you become more intuitive, more in tune, more aligned… to your soul, to your path, to your own existence, to your true potential.
Addressing, healing, and shedding the issues, traumas and all that does not serve you is tough at times, that is what emotions do when you allow yourself to feel them.
It is going in and feeling those emotions all over again, replaying a part of your life that we would rather forget. But there are certain visits we make into our past, that although painful, are well worth it due to where it leads you and what you discover about yourself.
This is an opportunity to be real with yourself and take responsibility and accountability for you. There is nothing like this process, this is a unique human and spiritual experienced in this lifetime alone. This is the reason why you are here.
Your existence is to discover and reinvent yourself as many times possible, as every level of growth and integration you do leads you to you… the amazing and unique individual of potentiality that you are, that will change this world and leave its imprint.
And all just by striving for growth in consciousness. To continue to evolve, to develop the best relationship with yourself and others, to love and to create a life of flow and alignment to your own truth, is the main prize.
May you shed the false layers, discover the new, and evolve for the rest of your days.
