Untethering Yourself

Description

Astrid, my greyhound, isn’t just a beloved member of the family — she’s also my life coach in many ways and the inspiration for this episode of Soul Guide Radio! As a greyhound, Astrid’s lineage includes thousands of years of breeding for hunting skills and instinct. When she’s chasing rabbits, she is working in her zone of genius. For the sake of the rabbits, I need to keep her tethered on her leash, which keeps a source of joy just out of her reach.

If you think about it, I’m sure you can identify areas in your life where you keep YOURSELF tethered — where you put a leash on the pursuit of your own dreams and desires, and hold yourself back from experiences that will bring you joy and excitement. This is YOUR version of chasing rabbits. It’s an act that entices you not because of a promised reward at the end, but because simply doing this thing IS the reward.

We tether ourselves from these experiences out of fear — fear of failure, fear of outshining those around us, fear of not living up to the expectations of others. We leash ourselves up to stay safe, but this safety keeps us from living (and thriving!) in the present moment, tapping into the absolute joy of our own focused, untethered energy, and developing mastery through overcoming challenges. Letting yourself fully experience the thrill of the chase can be a powerful form of manifestation, so I encourage you to go after those rabbits!
