You Are Wonderfully Inimitable

A Quiet Kind of Growth That Doesn’t Always Get Noticed

There’s a quiet kind of growth that doesn’t always get noticed.It doesn’t come with applause or shiny milestones. It doesn’t look like a promotion, a transformation, or a grand new beginning.

Instead, it can often seem like a mistake. It may feel like discomfort in the old roles, the old patterns, the old clothes, the old conversations. Like no longer fitting where you once felt at ease ~ or where you at least knew how to be in it. Sometimes this is an almost imperceptible slow shift, rather than a sudden change. And so it can feel confusing, even like something’s gone wrong.

But here’s the truth: growing ~ especially outgrowing ~ is entirely natural.

Just as children outgrow their clothes and toys with ease and without shame or self-judgement, we outgrow ideas, habits, identities, environments... even versions of ourselves.

This doesn’t mean anything is broken. This is not something to fix. It’s not a flaw. It’s life moving through you. It means something is becoming.

You may notice it when:

Conversations you used to enjoy now feel off

Familiar thought patterns are starting to stifle or jar

Clothes or roles that once fit now feel noticeably uncomfortable

The same books, films, foods, drinks, or routines are no longer enjoyable and no longer nourish you

Even people you love seem somehow misaligned

And that’s okay. It’s more than okay.

What once felt right may now feel restrictive ~ and this is fundamentally beautiful. It’s a clear sign of your personal evolution, of expanding into the fullness of the true you.

A Sacred Expansion

Your body knows. Your breath knows. Your wisdom knows.

The other layers of Self ~ your emotions, your thoughts, your boundaries, your joy ~ are beginning to glow with clarity. You are returning, gently and powerfully, to your inimitable Self.

With curiosity, arms wide open ~ rather than with shame or self-judgment. And when those arms of your heart open ~ let them wrap around you. Know that the whole of you is welcome ~ always. Allow them to enfold you in a loving and compassion-filled embrace.

This physical act of celebration ~ it ripples love-filled light throughout your whole being. And in that moment encompasses all dimensions of self, spanning all directions of time. And you are forever illumined anew.

As radiant as an inner sunrise.

Your Inner Light Is Shining Brighter Now

Like sunlight purifies every room it enters, your inner light now softly pours into the once shuttered spaces of your life ~ shining into once unlit corridors and pathways, and into unseen courtyards and gardens.

Where it brings warmth and clarity, new life and peaceful beauty. As your senses awaken, you begin to feel: This is me now.

Take your time to wander through this new spaciousness. Move slowly. Or swiftly. Or welcome complete stillness. Take your time to discover and savour every inch and drop of deliciousness in this unfolding of your life.

And so with an inner guidance of peace,

permit yourself to linger where it feels good.

Swim in it. Dance in it. Play in it. Rest in it. Be still in it.

Also to run, leap, skip, fly, and sing ~ whatever brings you peaceful delight.

Notice how it feels in the moment ~ first internally. Noticing where you feel this peaceful delight. Returning softly, again and again. And then, notice as it begins to blossom into outer reality ~ creating new seasons within your life for you to enjoy.

And so dear one, permit yourself to really breathe. To sleep when you’re tired. Smiling with abandon. Celebrating often. Creating from your heart. Just because. And know you are worthy of love and being loved ~ always.
