Jennifer’s Answer: What you are experiencing has been felt by so many people in this past decade and it is hard when everything in your life changes like this. Your response of sadness, fear and regret at these changes are preventing you from creating the new life that you want. While it may be hard to find the energy and courage to see new possibilities for yourself, that is what you must do if anything in your life is going to transform. You may be wondering why this has happened to you, so let’s talk about the real reasons behind what has happened here.
Everything enters and leaves our life at our conscious or unconscious invitation, so it is not possible to actually ‘lose’ anything. If we don’t appreciate what we have and wish it would go away, we disconnect our energy from it and it must leave our life. To invite something else in, we have to create space for it by setting an intention for it.
This process is what creates the in and out flow of people, situations and experiences into and out of our life. When we are grateful for what we have and appreciate every circumstance and situation, we achieve closure with we no longer resonate with and its outflow is graceful and effortless. The empty space is then filled with the new things we have set our intention for.
But when we feel angry and powerless, when we hate our life circumstances, and are upset with people and with ourselves, we create an energetic disconnection without first creating the space for the new to arrive. We can then find ourselves in the situation you are in, where everything seems to leave at once and our lives are empty.
Some questions for you to consider are:
- Did you like the job you had or were you frustrated, angry, and felt limited by it?
- Did you like your friends or were they challenging and did not serve and support you in meaningful ways?
- Are you harboring resentment and anger towards your family that you have yet to resolve with them or within yourself?
