Transition

October 28, 2016/ Massage360/ Kathy Stahl

When summer moves into fall we are transitioning seasonally. In addition to noticing the weather getting cooler and leaves falling, what do we notice within ourselves? Transition is defined as movement, passage, or change from one position, state, stage, subject, concept to another. All of our next steps in our journey are reliant on this phase of growth and illumination.

Trust me from my own experience it's not easy or fun at times. Transition can be dark, swampy and frustrating all at the same time. Let me assure you that wondrous things are in store for you on the other side of this time of transition. I can't say I don't need a lot of support and pep talks (plus some wine on the side) when I'm doing this deeper soul work, but I do have an awareness that this too shall pass. I need to trust my journey and go into my cocoon during this transformational process.

Whether it's to change your health, have better relationships, end relationships that no longer work or serve you to changing jobs, moving to other states or countries to just having peace and calming more in your daily life. Look at the one thing right now that triggers you or makes your emotions just ramp up. Dive deeply into it as this is where transition happens. This is your pot of gold to get you where your hearts desires are. It's where you want change to happen so you don't keep feeling all this emotion all the time. Know that I am right there with you my friends. Let's support each other with kindness and love while we all do our transitioning into our new being right along with the rest of the planet.

Wanting A Life Filled With More Pleasure

Pot De Creme

We all do this thing called Life really hard and well. We take our responsibilities seriously, pay our bills on time, say yes to helping others, try to always come from a place of support, kindness and love, and on and on….it can be so exhausting and a hard way to always be living.

What we as individuals are forgetting to do is experience the “Pleasure” in life. Our inner wells are being depleted and it becomes a daily struggle to just get through a day not on empty.

Pleasure is defined as a feeling of happiness, enjoyment, an activity that is done for enjoyment, a state of gratification, delight or joy, something or someone that causes a feeling of happiness, enjoyment or satisfaction. Pleasure then creates desire and desire leds us to our soul’s light getting turned on and our truest authentic selves appearing. When we feel this desire then creation can happen. The life we are wishing for appears with glimpses through our desire. Desire is where your divine purpose resides your full well of the essence of you. It brings an unfolding adventure to your destiny and why you’re here on earth now. It’s like finding the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Your body is vibrating at a higher frequency, you can laugh easily, feel the happiness in your body, be present more to life experiences, believe and trust that your desires can come true and experience more and more joy! Now who doesn’t want more JOY? Most of us are scared of our truest desires. We shy away or say that’s not possible and we sabotage our greatest desires. We stay in our suffering instead of surrendering our suffering. I recommend running not walking to your pleasure and desire. Don’t be shy to embrace desire hug it, hold it, savor it, and tell everyone that you’re feeling this joy. People will want what you have because they will be seeing your light shining brightly.

Here’s a pleasure I keep reliving and reliving…that brings me so much joy and heart’s desire.

One of the greatest pleasure of late for me was having this delicious, rich, creamy, decadent, hot chocolate in Paris France at a Brassiere Café. It’s served w a small side (lol) of rich, velvety pot de crème. I still dream about it and how it made me feel so much pleasure and desire and to be present just in a moment fully.

Tell me one of your pleasures in life?
