Coming home to yourself.

Yesterday, a client asked me, what does it mean to come home to yourself?

I often say that I was 33 when I began the journey back home. It was the year that I physically remember turning around -- and beginning the journey BACK. For 33 years, I had lived in self-abandonment, dishonoring my body, and not trusting my intuition. I was constantly living in my head, and disconnected from my heart. After a series of panic attacks and my body finally telling me it was done with me abandoning myself, I began the journey back home. 

The author Oriah says: 

Home is, of course, not simply a physical place. It is a sense of belonging, of remembering and being remembered, put back together again when our journeys into the world have fractured and fragmented our sense of self. 

Coming home to yourself is a journey of remembering.

Read that again. A journey of remembering.

Remembering your innate worth before you were lied to, betrayed or abandoned.
Remembering the inner voice and knowing that has never left you and is always guiding you.
Remembering that your life is being held by something far greater than your ability to hold it all together.
Remembering that the universe is relentlessly committed to seeing you succeed in life, and our work is to lean in and trust that.

When we come home to ourselves, our lives open up. We begin to live present, grounded, and alive in our own lives.

Ram Dass once said: “We’re all just walking each other home.”

Are you on the journey of walking home?
