When Resistance Is Redirecting You
Facing conditions that frequently trigger us or make us feel less than, like an unhealthy relationship or a job that doesn’t fulfil us, may result in a dutiful desire to be the better ‘spiritual’ person. We might desperately reach into our overflowing bag of spiritual tools and begin doing the work to shine light on the situation.
If all efforts go unrewarded and nothing changes or things worsen, we can find fault in ourselves for not managing to positively influence the person who mistreats us or the job that doesn’t emotionally reward us.
I’d like to offer another possible explanation as to why circumstances may not improve after numerous attempts to energetically shift it, based on what I’ve experienced in my last job before working full-time in my business and from what I’ve seen with my clients…
DESTINED FOR GREATER THINGS
If you have a profound desire for a healthier relationship or to be of service to others through honouring your gifts and you don’t take action towards that, the Universe may continue to make things difficult until you are finally forced to listen and step onto your true path.
ACTING FOR YOUR INNER-CHILD
Summoning the courage to move from an unhealthy place can also be a big part of our healing journey. This is you standing up for your wounded inner-child who previously had no power but now, as an adult, you have the power to choose, the power to walk away.
If you find yourself in circumstances where, despite your best practical and spiritual efforts, things are still awful, it may be time to accept that this situation isn't meant to improve. Sometimes, the Universe blocks progress not to punish us, but to guide us away from what’s holding us back. If things got better, you might stay where you are, missing the opportunity to step into your true destiny. Trust that this resistance is redirecting you toward something greater, something aligned with your higher purpose.
Make peace through acceptance and seek to place yourself where the Universe can guide you further toward your happiness.
With love and light
