Soul Awakening - Are You Missing The Signs?

Humanity has reached such a crucial time in its evolution.  We live in a time of huge growth, economically, technologically, and scientifically, and because of this, many of us experience incredible freedom, yet with this freedom comes a significant downside. Through being so switched on and connected to the outside world, it’s created a disconnect from Soul and our inner world. 

When we disconnect from Soul, we become distracted, unbalanced and numb, we switch off from the things that truly matter. 

It’s due to this imbalance that we see so many people becoming increasingly anxious and depressed. More and more sickness has crept into our bodies, and we are witnessing chronic illnesses, eating disorders, mental illnesses, existential crises and paranoia like never before.  

Deep at the core of this is our Soul screaming out for help and nurturing.

Most of us can sense that behind our masks something is terribly wrong, we’re lacking meaning and purpose. Everything is out of whack. 

The world’s population is continuing to increase, our ecological systems are suffering, resources are becoming scarce, food is being polluted and genetically modified, the rich continue to get richer, and the poor grow poorer.

How many more signs do we need before we respond?

Instinctively, many of us know that something needs to change, but we don’t know where to start.

WE NEED TO RADICALLY ADJUST OUR WAY OF THINKING, PERCEIVING, BEING AND BEHAVING. 

Now is the time to speak out and help society to recognise, we need to dramatically shift our focus from the external world to the world within and reconnect with our Souls.

So many of us are longing for meaning, for purpose, for the reason why we’re here on this planet. So if we can recognise that something is wrong, why don’t we create the change that will help us? For me, I found I had to hit breaking point before I took the leap. Now I help others recognise the signs before it gets to that.

WHAT DOES SOUL AWAKENING LOOK LIKE?

It’s completely different for everyone, but as many of us know, going through a spiritual awakening is one of the most confusing, emotionally scary times, yet supremely beautiful and incredibly uplifting experiences.

When we acknowledge the signs and actively participate in the changes our Soul is asking of us, our life begins to transform into something meaningful and significant. We start to see the possibility in the choices that are presented to us and the heaviness starts to lift. On the other hand, if we ignore the signs and continue on the same path, our life may begin to feel even more empty and meaningless than before and we wind up feeling lost and alone. I can speak from experience when I say, we’re not alone, but that’s exactly how you feel.

So what happens when we begin to acknowledge that the things going on around us (and to us) aren’t just coincidences, they’re actually happening because of us.

When we feel connected to soul, we create a feeling of oneness, and that feeling of oneness creates more connections. Little synchronicities begin to create bigger synchronicities until soon everything around you starts to link together and the patterns begin to appear. We actually begin to see and feel the effects that even the smallest change makes, just like we can see the ripples in a pond long after the thing that made them is gone.

This is when the fun begins, you start to notice that you have the ability to create the life you desire.  You are the gift your life has been waiting for. It’s up to you to start following the breadcrumbs to see where your Soul is guiding you.

While there are no instructions or maps to guide you on this journey, there are several stages you will navigate through. This is by no means a linear journey. We don’t just tick off one and move on to the next.  We will revisit all these phases many times throughout our life.  

Life sometimes presents us with challenges that may take us in a completely different direction from where we believed our path to be. But, I promise you this, if you walk in that direction with an open heart and mind the lessons you learn along the way will undoubtedly intersect with your soul purpose.

This is a complex and messy path, which can branch off in any direction depending on the choices we make. So don’t expect your journey to look a certain way, in fact, don’t expect anything at all. The most beautiful part of this journey is living in the mystery of the possibilities. 

Your spiritual awakening is completely unique to you, and the longer you are navigating that journey, the more equipped you will become at recognising what is being revealed to you. 

7 STAGES OF SOUL AWAKENINGS

1. Feeling lost, unhappy and alone

This is when your soul is trying many different ways to reach out to you. It’s when you start to experience a Dark Night of the Soul. Life feels confusing and meaningless, you feel depressed and like something is missing. You’re searching for something, but you don’t quite know what. There’s an emptiness inside you that you’re longing to fill. This usually emerges spontaneously or due to a life crisis such as an illness, divorce, loss of a loved one, trauma, or a major life change. These are pivotal moments in your life when your soul is trying to get your attention.

2. Shifting your perception

You begin to recognise that things aren’t as you originally thought. You start to realise you have a say in how your life unfolds. Before you believed that life just happened and if shitty things happened in the past, it’s likely that they’ll just keep happening, but now you perceive reality in a completely different way. You realise that everything you have been told by your family and society is insignificant and it’s time to stop looking externally for the answers. You can no longer walk through life being complacent and unaware.

3. Seeking a deeper meaning

This is when you begin asking the questions you once thought were for philosophers. You start searching for a deeper meaning in your life. Reality as you know it has changed, options that you didn’t believe were possible start revealing themselves to you and you’re now open to an entirely new way of thinking. Your connection between all that is, and how you fit in, starts to make sense. You’ve opened your awareness and now you’re craving even more knowledge to help you understand what your purpose is.

4. Allowing the knowledge to alchemise with the trauma

You’ll feel the synchronicity to everything that happens. Your soul has guided you to the true core of the issue so you can heal your pain. You’ll feel the beauty of connection, and as you allow old patterns to be witnessed, you give them permission to shift and dissolve. The true essence of your soul is beginning to emerge. You may have several magical experiences of enlightenment that give you a glimpse into pure connection. You’ll begin to wonder how you ever thought the way you were living was life. Your world has now been opened to the beauty of endless possibilities and you realise pain is the gateway to hope.

5. Becoming lost in life again

Unfortunately, more often than not, you will find we as humans slip. And one of the hardest parts of this journey is when you have been truly expanded and in complete connection with all that is, and you slip. Like everything in life, there is an ebb and flow, an equal and opposite reaction. You may feel as if you’re right back where you started, but you’re not, you just need to create some time to start again, only this time you already have all the knowledge you have learned. See the blessing in the detour you just took and be grateful for the lessons it brought to you.

6. Your soul’s yearning

Now is when you start to devote even more time to your soul, you’re no longer prepared to brush it off as ‘feel good’ you recognise the significance in the way your life has changed through following your soul. It no longer feels like dabbling, it’s now part of your destiny. The desire you now feel, motivates you to do deep inner work. You’ll probably start focusing on healing the things you used to brush under the carpet like inner child healing, shadow work, bodywork and nervous system work.

7. Integration, expansion and infinite creative energy

This is when you see you are everything and everything is one. Part of this time is recognising the unity between your body and soul. You understand and appreciate that with change comes integration, you need to allow your body the time and space to process and alchemise.  You need to learn to apply your inner work to your daily life. This is when Unity within every aspect of your life begins to appear. You feel profound joy and happiness and you start living from a place of gratitude and love. You understand that you have embodied and experienced certain things to heal within your life so you can impact others lives through sharing your experiences with them. You start to crave being part of the change this planet needs.
