Growing up I was always taught that my guiding light was outside of myself. That my internal voice was not one to be trusted. Even worse, it was wayward, wicked, and deceitful. I was taught to look to pastors, teachers and older men to find out how I SHOULD be.
Carrying around the SHOULDs of other people eventually started to feel more like a hinderance than a honorable burden. It was through meditation that I was able to begin to get enough space to see myself following others, instead of thinking and feeling based on me.
Through the years, with this practice, I have began to rescue my inner voice, lean into my own decisions, and overall feel so much more at home in the life I create for myself.
I am not anti-religious, but I sure have had to learn to look at religion for inspiration, and not instruction.!
