Living the Life You Desire
If the current chaos in the world hasn’t caused you to check in on this question … Am I living a life that makes me happy, serves me and allows me to serve others? … now might be a good time! Most of my students and clients answer a resounding NO to this question. Believe you me, I completely understand this. We are all a work in progress AND we often fall into the trap of listening to our own limiting beliefs and certainly those coming from society/family/friends. None of them mean any harm, but it’s how we’ve been programmed.
As a holistic health coach, I have the honor of working with women who are ready to explore their entire life and watch the magic unfold as they dive deep and tap into what they want and what they can start doing to move in that direction. This seems like a perfect time, especially as some places are starting to relax some of the stay at home restrictions, to consider what you want to create with the remainder of this year. None of us can predict the future, but you can decide on what you’d like and work towards that.
Do you remember what it was that you wanted to be when you were a kid? Do you do anything resembling that now? Did you dream of sitting in an office (which so many do … but I don’t imagine it was part of your childhood dream), being your own boss or maybe some kind of performer? I know that I always saw myself on the stage (but can’t sing to save my life!). Ironically (or not), I love public speaking, so I guess that’s my stage. Do you love your job or dread it? Imagine the negative health implications of going to a job every day that you don’t even like … a job that has no meaning, significance or bigger purpose to you.
I know that feeling, I did that for 6 years when I graduated from college. Six years in HR in a BANK! If you know me, you know that that was not MY match. I remember thinking before I quit … is this it? I had a vision of myself being 60 or 70 years old, a grandma and all of that and thinking … really?? I just knew that wasn’t my life path. I did something a bit radical … I quit my job and moved to Japan! While I’m not suggesting that you do anything radical, I am suggesting that you take a look at where you are and where you’d like to be! For me, it was the Best. Decision. Ever.
What about your health? Do you want to spend time in the kitchen cooking food? Do you want someone else to do the cooking for you? Do you want it delivered to your home … whether from the store or a CSA (community supported agriculture)? We have the luxury in this modern world of many options on the food front. The most important thing is to choose REAL food (less packaging and processing). Things that grow in nature or you can plant in your garden … if you choose to have one or NOT.
While you can have someone cook for you, you can’t have someone workout for you. BUT, you can find an accountability partner or hire a personal trainer. You can do workouts online, whether they are live or recorded. There are SOOO many options. Moving your body is part of your health. Your HEALTH is your greatest WEALTH.
What about your spiritual/religious beliefs and practices? Does this part of your life align with your thoughts, beliefs and preferences? Do you make time for this? For some it might be going to a church, temple or mosque and others it might be a hike in the forest or a meditation/yoga practice. There’s no right or wrong for any of this, but carving out the time and creating something that serves YOU well is key.
We also look closely at relationships … family, friends, co-workers, community, etc. Do you have loving and supportive relationships that are based on trust and honesty? If you haven’t started your own family, is that what you want? If you do have a family, how are those relationships? Have you found your tribe OR do you have friends that you need to distance yourself from or maybe have outgrown? This isn’t a bad thing. It’s very natural and happens all of the time. If you don’t allow the friendship to either fall away or end it, things can get ugly or even passive aggressive. Checking in on your own emotional intelligence is one key to fostering healthy relationships.
Finally, we check in with your lifestyle. Where do you want to live: city, suburbs or countryside? Do you want to stay in your own country or relocate (whether temporarily or permanently) to another country? What kind of material things would you like to have in your life? What kinds of hobbies/activities do you want to participate in? How do you want to give back to the world? How and who do you want to BE? I tend to be a bit of an extremist … I can live in a city (Chicago, Kyoto, Tokyo, Cusco and Portland) OR I can live on a remote island (Sumbawa). I have noticed that when I’m overseas, I’m most often drawn to the cultural centers. We lived in Ubud when we first moved to Bali, the cultural/spiritual center as well as the healing center. What’s the best place/climate/culture for you?
If these questions have sparked something within you … and you know you’d like to dive deeper into these questions with a support group of intelligent women that are both health seekers and life dreamers, please take a look at the Ready For Change Community. We’ll be getting started in June! There’s a class taking place next week (link will be available soon!). At the moment there are links to register or to watch a recording of the last class.
