Hello and welcome beautiful Insight Timer community.
Today we are on day 23 of our 30 days of scripting.
So this is getting exciting.
We've got another week to go.
Today I decided to pull a card from Rebecca Campbell's Healing Waters Oracle deck.
Another lovely deck with beautiful pictures and one that I'm a huge fan of as well as the other 60 decks that I own.
Okay I'll be honest.
But anyway I pulled a card randomly from her deck and I got Ride the Waves Life Lessons and Growth.
You will get through this.
And it says you are most definitely living right now.
And while you may be experiencing challenges in your life,
They're shaping you into who you'll be someday soon.
Just as strong winds that blow consistently over the ocean transfer energy to the water to generate waves,
The same happens when we feel the pressures of life knocking on our door.
Life's pressures and challenges invite us to transform in the process.
They can cause calm seas to gain momentum and waves to form.
While at the time it can feel overwhelming,
Our true character is born through these unexpected changes that life delivers.
Our experiences shape us.
The most compassionate people in the world are the ones who know the real depths of life.
The ones who have the capacity to understand us are those who have been through their own choppy waves.
The ones who are able to hold us when we feel most out of our depths are those who have been through it themselves.
Be like the surfer and instead of reacting to the waves or seeing them as things to be avoided,
Choose to respond.
And when possible,
See if you can find a way to ride those waves all the way to the shore.
There may be times when you fall off your board,
But you'll meet fellow surfers who are riding their own waves back to themselves.
Your soul inquiry.
How can you respond to the waves of your life instead of reacting to them?
How can you let the transformation happen?
One of the things I love about this card is that last week was a challenging week for me.
Just little things that were kind of overwhelming me.
And one of the ways that I love to deal with that is through journaling and scripting.
Every morning,
No matter how I was feeling,
I would open up my journal and start scripting.
And I just kept writing that my problems were resolved.
My anxiety had gone away.
I was feeling better.
I was getting things accomplished.
I was feeling more at ease with everything that was happening.
And while I'm not going to say that that happened immediately,
Within a couple of days,
I definitely felt that.
I felt so much better.
And I love this analogy about finding surfers along the way,
Because that's how I feel about Insight Timer.
Most of us go there looking for some kind of refuge,
And it is definitely a safe place for us to be amongst like-minded people who,
Quite frankly,
Make us feel better just being around them.
That's one of the reasons why I love it there and why I love collaborations.
So today,
For our scripting prompt,
Let's write about the glorious day that we're having.
Regardless of how you may be feeling or what might be happening in your life,
Just remember these things lead to transformation.
And in my life,
Transformation has always led to amazing things.
So I'm going to put five minutes on the clock,
And that'll give us time to do a little scripting about the amazing day and the amazing life that we're having,
Or the amazing week.
All right,
Friends,
Let's start scripting.
All right,
My friends,
That was five minutes.
I hope you had enough time to get some great thoughts down on paper.
And if not,
Feel free to go back and do a little more writing.
There are days when I could write pages,
And then there are days when I just write a little.
But I do it daily,
And it always makes me feel so much better.
So congrats on making it to day 23.
I look forward to meeting back here tomorrow for day 24.
And I'm going to leave you with a little quote here that I love from Theodore Roosevelt.
Believe that you can do it,
And you're halfway there.
My friends,
I will see you here tomorrow for day 24.
Until then,
Have an amazing day.
