When Life Throws Curve Balls
Soul Empowerment Episode # 23
The question isn’t whether life will throw you a curveball! It’s a question of “when”!
How often do we experience an unexpected personal event that seemingly comes from out of nowhere and throws us off course in how we’ve been showing up? A dark cloud looms overhead and smothers how we do life in this season.
Thankfully, for most of us, these kinds of unexpected events few and far between. At the moment they happen, they can be disorienting, disconcerting and painful. And often we experience noticeable negative impacts on our emotional and physical health as a result.
Curveballs aren’t normally associated with enjoyable positivity! However, we all have the power to reframe these events into growth-promoting life-gems that keep us afloat—and even provide for some unexpected gifts if we can keep our eyes open to see them!
How do you hold space for yourself when your are in the midst of a curveball situation? Do you open the door for your ego to take over telling you that you were wronged, unlucky, or unfairly treated by someone? In the instant of occurrence, this may seem like truth to you, but it isn’t really the truth. Your ego-mind wants you to think this way so that you can carry on—survive, really—without growing and evolving.
But as we discuss in this presentation, even in the midst of life’s curveballs you can stay centered, present and calm knowing at all times who you are at your core.
Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode of Soul Empowerment:
- Learn to be in flow and what this means to you as a helpful life-tool.
- Gain understanding why following our ego mind and responding to the ego mind with anger, frustration or victim thinking only intensifies the event and places you at the sidelines.
- Bring serenity to your ego-mind so you can stay aligned with your soul and your true spiritual purpose for being.
- Invite in authentic love and acceptance as a means of knowing and being comfortable with yourself—especially when life delivers a curveball!
