What's blocking you from unconditional love.
There is one very powerful thing holding you back from reaching the deep love that you crave.
Whether it's romantic love with another or unconditional love towards yourself.
You can't reach that kind of love if you're dragging the past with you everywhere you go.
You're carrying too much of the past.
You're carrying past pain,
Past trauma and negative experiences.
And then you wonder why that profound,
Healthy,
Transformative,
Unconditional love feels so out of reach.
The truth is your past is blocking you from experiencing that kind of love.
And here's the crazy thing,
Nothing in your past has any hold over you now.
You might think it does.
You might believe the wounds from your past are permanent,
Etched into your skin like a tattoo.
But that simply isn't the truth.
The past only has power if you keep looking back.
If you're determined to look forward,
One step at a time,
Healing,
Growing,
Learning and changing,
Then you will reach the love you seek.
But right now,
Your past pain is holding you back because you keep looking that way.
And as long as you dwell on what's behind you,
You'll never become the greatest version of yourself that you were always destined to be.
And you'll never get to feel that delicious,
Deep,
Unconditional love.
I'm telling you this because I want you to transform.
To open yourself to the deepest love you've ever known.
But in order to do that,
You need to close the door on what was so you can focus on what is and you can manifest what will be.
You need to leave the past behind you.
And so today that's exactly what you're going to do.
You're going to let go of the past so you can welcome in deep,
Profound,
Beautiful love.
To begin,
Let's just take a few deep breaths.
Breathing in through the nose and out of the mouth with a long sigh.
With each exhale,
Allow yourself to release any tension in your body.
Feel the heaviness melt away bit by bit.
Without even realizing it,
Every morning when you wake up,
You pack a mental suitcase of old beliefs,
Behaviors,
And other people's judgments.
You fill that suitcase every morning with the toxic patterns you adopted to survive difficult times in your childhood.
Every morning,
You fill that suitcase with society's expectations of who you should be.
Every day,
You carry the suitcase with you and it weighs you down.
It's why the love you crave feels so far away.
It's like you're trying to move forward while dragging a dead weight.
You don't need that suitcase anymore.
It's time to set it down once and for all.
The only person who can decide to let go is you.
No coach,
No therapist,
No meditation,
No self-help book,
No magic pill can do it for you.
Only you can choose to release the past.
So now,
I'd like you to imagine you're standing in front of an elevator.
And at your feet,
You see that heavy suitcase.
The one you've been dragging around with you for years.
Filled with old pain and outdated beliefs.
It's been weighing you down,
But today,
You're going to bring it into your imagination to set yourself free.
The elevator doors open and I'd like you to drag that suitcase into the elevator with you.
Feel its weight.
Acknowledge that this is the burden you've been carrying.
There are only two buttons in this elevator.
Reality and imagination.
Please push imagination and let's be on our way.
You press the button and the doors close.
And we're travelling through your imagination without you feeling a thing.
We've reached our destination.
The doors of your elevator open to a vast desert canyon.
On your side,
The landscape is barren.
Scorching heat.
No clouds.
No shade.
No water.
It's dry.
Desolate.
But across the canyon on the other side of a narrow rickety rope bridge,
You see paradise.
You see lush green trees,
Waterfalls,
A vibrant rainbow and a sky full of fluffy white clouds.
You can sense peace,
Abundance and deep love waiting for you on that side.
But you can't cross the bridge while holding on to your past.
The suitcase is too heavy to carry across.
This is you in your life right now.
Standing in the barren wasteland of past pain,
Looking longingly at the life and love you desire.
But you refuse to let go of the baggage that's holding you back.
I want you to really feel into this moment because the decision you make now could change the rest of your life.
You don't need to forgive anyone right now.
You don't need to make peace with every detail of the past.
But you do need to surrender it.
Accept that what happened,
Happened.
And it's over.
The only thing keeping you from the beautiful life on the other side is your refusal to let go.
So now as you stand at the edge of this chasm,
Make the choice.
The suitcase is by your side.
Place your hand on it.
Acknowledge all the pain,
The stories,
The behaviours,
The outdated beliefs it holds and then let it go.
Push it off the edge of the canyon.
And watch as it tumbles down into the abyss,
Disappearing from your sight.
Feel the lightness in your body as you release that weight.
You are free.
You are ready to cross the bridge.
Take your first step onto the rope bridge,
Leaving the past behind you.
And feel how much lighter you are.
How much easier it is to move now.
You're gliding effortlessly across the bridge towards the other side.
Keep your eyes forward.
Knowing you are moving towards the life,
The love and the joy that has always been waiting for you.
And now as you step onto the lush green side of the canyon,
You are in a new world.
A world where you no longer carry the burden of the past.
You left it behind and in this new place you are free to love,
To grow and to experience the abundance of life.
To seal this powerful moment,
Step with me into the waterfall of abundance.
Feel the cool,
Refreshing water wash over you.
Cleansing away any remnants of what once held you back.
As you stand under the waterfall,
Feel your body become lighter,
More illuminated.
Every drop of water that touches you dissolves the last traces of the past.
Leaving you fully present and open to receive the love and joy that is now yours.
When you are ready,
Step out from under the waterfall.
And as you do,
Notice that the other side of the canyon,
The barren desert has disappeared.
It's gone.
All you can see now is beauty,
Colour,
Vibrance and possibility in every direction.
This is your new beginning.
Take a moment to breathe in this fresh,
New reality.
You are free.
You have crossed over into a whole new way of being.
Now imagine the elevator reappearing before you.
Step inside and press the button to return to reality,
Bringing this new energy with you.
And as the doors open,
Feel yourself back in your body,
In this present moment.
Lighter,
Freer and fully open to deep,
Epic,
Profound love.
Feel your body in this moment.
Take a deep breath.
You have let go of the past and now you are ready to embrace the extraordinary love that awaits you.
You are free.
You are whole.
And you are loved.
