NATURE IS ALWAYS BRINGING US WHAT BALANCES US

It’s Thursday morning and I am sitting at a cosy cafe sipping a cup of green tea and looking out at the busy traffic.

This morning I had a beautiful breakfast with an ex-colleague.

It was special for us to connect as friends rather than in the business environment we used to try to navigate so professionally in years gone by.

We shared an authentic and soul nourishing conversation without worrying about business… interacting as humans and friends, rather than for outcomes and performance…

And now, as I sit to write my blog, at the table next to me I almost can’t think straight because there is a powerful and direct business-woman speaking so loudly she is practically yelling at the man she is meeting with.

My ears are starting to ache from her loud, harsh and firm tone and can hear every word she is saying to him from “you have to make this decision yourself” and “you need to understand that this is the way this business and team has to work in our department, rules are rules”.

I can’t hear anything he is saying.

He seems mute.

I can feel what he is feeling though…

From an energetic perspective I can feel his shrunken, shrivelled solar plexus, slowly wilting away, feeling blocked and frozen.

And I can also feel her powerful, frustrated and overbearing solar plexus bursting across the café trying to wake him up and get him to tell her what is going on and what he wants to do moving forward.

I want to walk over to the table and ask her to take a deep breath and speak from her heart a little more before she says another word.

And I want to tell him that it’s safe to speak up.

I want to connect these two people in the present moment as humans first and business people second.

Yet, I also realise that the universe has brought these two people together in order to help one another find balance.

Neither of them are wrong. Neither of them are right.

They are being brought together to grow and evolve.

She, to learn to soften, and he to learn to stand up and speak up.

I truly believe that nature always brings us the right people to help us learn what we need to. To grow and evolve and find balance within.

I encourage you to explore what nature is bringing you in the people around you and what you feel challenged by…

Does it affect you whenever someone is loud?

Is this an opportunity for you to start to speak up more?

Does it affect you when someone doesn’t talk openly?

Could you work on listening more and speaking less yourself?

Do you have people around you who are controlling?

How would it feel to make your own decisions?

Do you have people around you who can’t make clear decisions?

Explore any fear you have around surrendering control.

Does it affect you when someone is clinical or direct?

Try being stronger and clearer yourself.

Does it affect you when someone is overly emotional?

Could you work on softening?

Trust the process.

Notice the clues.

and remember, no one is ever right or wrong, nature is simply bringing us what balances us…
