Today, I’ve got a (potentially) hard pill to swallow — EVERYTHING happens for your benefit.
Usually, when you hear this statement, you think about the great things in life, the people you love, a job you enjoy, a functioning body, etc.
But what about the hard things? The AWFUL things?
The universal truth that everything happens for your benefit also includes the terrible parts of life — abuse, sexual assault, death, job, loss, disease, etc. and that’s much harder to take.
As a young girl in the Christian church, I’d often hear people ask, “How could God allow _____ to happen?” And regardless of your faith or spiritual preference, you have probably asked yourself the same question, too!
Which is normal.
We were born on a planet of polarity, one which teaches us that things are good or bad, right or wrong instead of encouraging us to consider our perspective about those things.
Better questions are:
Why is this happening for me?
What can I learn from this experience?
How can this improve my life?
Recently, I hosted a client with ALS for an Akashic Restoration Session, my channeled version of energy healing. She shared that ALS goes back five generations in her family, and at four years old, she watched her mother die from it and her sister many years later. She also shared that when her mother passed away, she became deeply fearful of ALS and has carried it with her ever since.
She has spent her entire life fearing this disease.
Now is she beginning to show symptoms of ALS and is (understandably) very scared about what’s going to happen.
In my Restoration Sessions, we begin by uncovering the WHY behind an ailment or issue. It’s important to understand the root of what’s going on and then the Akashic guides channel a protocol to follow.
Healing happens on many levels. Oftentimes just coming into the awareness of why something is taking place is enough to assist in moving that energy out or ending a cycle. Other times, it requires energy work, and action on the part of the individual.
My client’s Akashic guides shared that she had chosen ALS to learn how to use her mind to overcome fear. And to ensure that the focus was fear, she chose a family line with five generations of ALS and the experiences of watching her two beloveds pass away.
Wow, right?
To our human mind, we might think, “Whyyy would she ever choose that?” but you have to remember that your Soul wants EVERY experience and it doesn’t view anything as good or bad — it simply is.
Her Soul had spent several lifetimes feeling disempowered by the mind and disempowered in general, therefore she chose something enormous to overcome!
And overcome she will.
Over the past several years in my work in the Akashic Records, I have yet to see a challenging life circumstance be rooted in anything besides benefit and growth for the individual. And EVERY “terrible” life circumstance is planned by the Soul for a purpose — the loss of a parent/child, sexual abuse, death, etc — it matters not.
I share this story to empower you! Everything you have experienced in life was 1) planned by you and 2) for your benefit. And if that pisses you off — it’s okay! My client wasn’t happy to hear her Soul’s purpose behind ALS and I don’t blame her.
This isn’t about bypassing or sugarcoating difficult experiences, it’s about putting them in perspective and taking your power back!
You have NEVER been a victim and nothing has ever been done TO YOU — it has been done FOR you. And if that is a hard pill to swallow then I urge you to sit with why. To better understand what’s going on within you. Because YOU are the only person who can change it.
A great resource to further assist is a book titled “Your Soul’s Plan: Discovering the Real Meaning of the Life You Planned Before You Were Born” by Robert Schwartz that dives into our “between lives” when we plan our life experiences and challenges. You’ll be blown away to learn the purpose of someone choosing to experience AIDS, parenting handicapped children, and much more!
As we’re wrapping up August, Beautiful Soul - I hope my posts have helped to provide more perspective to this human experience. It truly is an incredible one :))
