In today’s Episode of “Healing from Within”, your host Sheryl Glick Author of The Living Spirit which shares stories of spiritual awakenings, energy healing, miracles, spiritual communication, and ways to develop greater soul awareness welcomes Tara-jenelle Walsch author of Soul Courage who tells us we have the potential to come alive in ways that can transform our life experiences bringing us from greater self-awareness to one of soul-awareness, forever changing the way we view ourselves and the world.
Tara-jenelle thinks back to her childhood and writes, “For much of our younger years it seems that we all stumble along thinking that life is about how much we have, what we look like and who is on our arm. We’re caught in the day to day patterns of unconscious living thinking that life is about what we are doing….that is until something happens in our life…usually a major loss or great love that cracks us wide open and we start thinking and feeling in a new way”.
The gift of a lifetime is expressed by Tara-jenelle by a story…”When I was a little girl and would get upset, my mother would say, If you’re going to cry, go up to your room. You have twenty minutes to feel sorry for yourself, then I expect you to come out and join the world again. This is how I discovered the gift of being alone with my feelings…being sent to my room gave me time to actually feel my feelings, helping me identify what they were, versus just reacting to the situation at hand. I could never have done this in the company of others. My mother gave me a life treasure. She taught me the value of what I have come to call Soulitude.”
Sheryl shares with Tara-jenelle that she was a very sensitive child, an empath picking up everyone’s emotions and feelings, often having crying meltdowns. Sheryl’s mom also let her go off by herself and live through the energy of the experience so she could feel her emotions and not run away from them. Sheryl and Tara-jenelle realize how very lucky they were to have wonderful mothers.
Tara-jenelle tells us what Soul Courage is. “Soul Courage may be the journey that the soul took to physicality to experience joys pain challenges elation anxiety tears and laughter that are part of human life and the greatest opportunities to feel what it already knows. Many people live in fear ..fear of actually feeling, and that is what the soul needs to do. Soul Courage is about bringing who you really are to your life..your instinctual wisdom, endless curiosity, your feelings and the expression of them, your wonder and vulnerability, your joy and pain, your fear and excitement—all that you carry inside from before you were made physical, and all that you have picked up on this human journey. Soul Courage is also about being all that you encompass—body mind and Soul: Speaking your truth, singing your song, and revealing your true nature to yourself, to others, and to life. Soul Courage is also about daring to be and own all of yourself without shame and judgment, apology or excuses, hiding or hindering. It’s about meeting your feelings with gentle grace, expressing them with absolute freedom and connecting with total presence.”
Tara-jenelle wrote “Some say the human body is a vehicle for the soul, that each of us is a soul that has a body, a spiritual being that has become physical. I agree with that and if all of us believed that we would have to question life at the deepest level regarding love, religion sex politics—all of it. We’d have to question ourselves at the deepest level. Our reason for existence would be shaken up so vigorously that the coordinates of our current understanding would change entirely.”
Sheryl says to Tara-jenelle Becoming aware that we are a soul having a physical life is the place everyone hopefully reaches as they ask the questions, “Who are we? Why are we here?
