Trusting in the (U)niverse

A Guide to Going Within and Co-Creating with The Universe.



Its been a while since I've written a message to share with the world. Or whoever just happens to come across this blog post in the vast world wide web. But, I have a very strong message that’s coming through to me right now as I sit in this beautiful café in Medellin. And it has everything to do with how I got to where I am presently.

 

We often find ourselves in situations or cycles where we feel as though there is no way out, and I am no exception. However, I am lucky to have been exposed to so many spiritual tools and modalities early in life that now I feel like I can deal with almost any challenge that is sent my way. Remember challenges are just opportunities for growth and expansion, even if it doesn’t feel that way in the moment. When you look back on all the challenges you have overcome, I bet it puts a smile on your face because you're proud. Proud of what you were able to overcome and excited for what is to come…

 

Anyway, I say all that to say that the more you go within and realize that the universe and your guides are with you through all the ups and downs, life becomes more of an adventure. More of an experience. Like its meant to be. We aren't meant to be constantly worried about 3D world things when we are so protected by something much greater. And I'm not saying to completely screw your life up in hopes of the universe absorbing all the consequences. Quite the opposite actually.

 

We must figure out what it is that we want in this life, even if its just in the next few months, make a plan, and trust that the universe will help us along the way. That being said, the core of my message to you today is:


Figure out you: Who are you? What is it that you want?
  1. For more on this you can check out my post on Remembering Who You Are

Make a plan to get there
Take action
Trust the universe as the plan unfolds
  1. It may not look exactly how you planned it to but don’t get discouraged.

 


Why is this important? Because there are so many people in the world today who feel completely lost, hopeless, and have no motivation to pursue their souls mission. For many, they're so blocked off that they aren't even aware that they have a souls mission. So my goal with this post is to provide you with the tools to not only change your life but also plant the seeds for others who maybe in this position of confusion, despair, and lack of joy for this beautiful gift of life we have been given.

 

This isn't the cure all, this is only a portion of what it takes to get someone to see the light, however, in the material world just like with our chakras everything starts at the root. The root of a lot of issues we are facing today as a collective is trauma, poverty, and the battles of negative subconscious thoughts and programming. Following the steps below will begin to unlock something in many people that will allow them to begin working on at least one of the three issues. This will create a snowball effect, like it did for me, to begin exploring the other areas and put you on the path of your mission.

 

 

  1. Who are you? What do you want?

 

This question is very difficult for a lot of people because we never had the time or the opportunity to really sit down and think about this long enough to come up with the answer. Many of us were being conditioned and programmed from a young age to be someone we're not, and as adults it's all we're use to. But this doesn’t have to be the case.


Through serious mediation, journaling, and time alone we can begin to unravel who it is that we really want to be. Use your hobbies and interests as a hint. What's something that you enjoy doing, or when are you the happiest? This can be a process for many people, so I like to say try everything. Its the quickest way to discover what you like and what you don’t like.

 

Going within will also help you identify habits and thought patterns that are hindering you from achieving what you're capable of.

 

Figuring out yourself and what you want is a crucial step in taking you from your current state to the state in which you live a life of play. A life where you are doing MORE of the things that bring you joy and happiness.

 

I'll use myself as an example. I love traveling and exploring new place. I discovered during a period of finding myself, that when I stay in one place for too long, I feel restricted, trapped, and my motivation for life declines. Traveling inspires me to create, and my ultimate form of expression is creation. SO I made a plan to not only leave the country, but to also create a life where I could travel wherever I felt the desire to.

 

 

2. Make a Plan

 

Once you have an idea of what that thing is, its time to make a plan. Im always planning. This looks like writing down all the necessary steps it will take for you to achieve the life that aligns with you. There is something very powerful that happens when we write down our goals, and the steps it takes to achieve those goals.

  1. It allows for us to bring into the physical what we want to manifest.

  2. It allows us to visualize each step of the process and envision what it would look like once we've accomplished it.

 

 

This works for short-term AND long-term plans. Hence why I am ALWAYS planning. Do not skip this part because it’s the KEY to manifesting.

 

3. Take Action

 

Just because we write something down on paper doesn’t mean it will automatically happen without any input on our end. We are co-creators with the universe. Or as I was told to think of it: "We take care of the Quantity, and the Universe takes care of the Quality".

 

After creating our plan, we must take the necessary steps towards completing each step. This looks like:

 

  • Securing a remote  job that will allow you to the flexibility to focus on your goals

  • Speaking at a Pitch competition to potential investors and clients for your business

  • Taking a course or certification to improve your knowledge of herbs and plants

 

 

Some of these things may seem impossible for us in the moment, but this is why the next step is crucial.

 

4. Trust the Universe

 

Often times, when we make plans, we're thinking to ourselves, "There's no way any of this could happen". But trust me when I say, the universe ALWAYS has your back. When we come into alignment with a specific path, and we DECIDE that this is what we're going to do, and we show UNWAVERING faith by making the plan and TAKING action, we're blessed with Synchronicities.

 

Here is the Webster's definition of synchronicities.



 

And here is the spiritual meaning of synchronicities.



 

This all ties back to the very beginning. The more you go within and realize that the universe and your guides are with you through it all, you will be given gifts and resources to receive and achieve what you are meant to do in this lifetime.

 

The synchronicities could look like:

  • Receiving a download on how to complete a complicated project

  • Meeting people who can help you grow your business

  • Finding the perfect teacher

  • Opportunities for work or creative partnerships

  • Receiving a scholarship to go back to school

  • Meeting a friend of a friend who has the perfect connections for you

  • Obtaining all the resources (monetary or otherwise) to bring your dream to life

 

 

I can go on and on. But these are just some of the synchronicities I've experienced while being here in Medellin. When I went within, found out who I am and what I want, I made a plan to get there. I started to receive downloads, I began receiving resources, I met people who have helped me in life and business, I've made lifelong connections, and overall I've been able to create with fluidity.

 

I managed to receive all of this while also dealing with the struggles of moving to a new country, working through my own traumas and subconscious thoughts, the feeling of being misunderstood by others, and the uncertainty that comes with new chapters. Throughout it all, I've maintained a level of Peace in knowing that no matter what, the universe has my best interest, and I wish this level of Peace for all.

 

Although things didn’t unfold EXACTLY like I planned, the universe has put so many more blessing on my path, and for that I am truly grateful. My gift back is to share this with you in hopes that you are able to find this joy as well.

 

Peace and Love,

Kai
