The Elephants in the Room: Listen to Your Soul Instinct
"Trust your Soul Instinct; it sees the colorful elephants in your room as opportunities for joy and growth" CJB
There's an old saying about "elephants in the room" - it refers to those issues or problems that are so glaringly obvious, yet often go unaddressed. In our lives, these elephants can represent anything from a troubled relationship to unfulfilled career aspirations, or even our own internal conflicts. But what if I told you that your soul, your very own gut instinct, has been whispering the truth about these elephants all along?
Understanding Your Soul's Whisper
Your soul is like the wisest companion you've ever known, quietly pointing out the giants in your living room. It's that deep, knowing feeling when something just doesn't feel right. This isn't about some mystical force; it's about tuning into your own inner dialogue. Here at CJB.today, let's explore how this instinct is not just a warning system but a guide to soul happiness.
Feeding the Elephants
Now, here's where the journey gets interesting. It's not always about evicting these elephants from your life. Sometimes, the key to happiness lies in how we interact with them. If your marriage feels like it's walking on eggshells, consider this:
First, you must see the elephant. Acknowledge the issues at hand. This is where your soul speaks the loudest, urging you to see what's there.
🌈 Kindness:
Instead of trying to ignore or fight these elephants, what if we fed them with kindness? This means approaching our problems with love, patience, and understanding. Maybe it's about having that heart-to-heart conversation you've been avoiding or starting to express appreciation for the small things.
🌈 Tweaking:
Not all elephants need to be sent to the "elephant rest home." Some just need a bit of tweaking. Perhaps your career elephant isn't about changing jobs but finding a new passion within your current role or setting boundaries that honor your soul's needs.
The Choice to Heal or Release
When you feed your elephants with love and care, you might find they transform. They might become less of a burden and more of a teacher, showing you aspects of yourself you need to grow or heal.
🌈 Releasing:
Sometimes, after all your efforts, you realize that some elephants need to go. This could be letting go of toxic relationships or situations that no longer serve your soul happiness. It's not about defeat but about making space for new, joyful experiences.
Your Soul's Path to Happiness
The beauty of listening to your "Soul Instinct" is that it leads you towards what truly makes you happy. Here, we delve into how every aspect of life, every "elephant," holds the potential for soul happiness. It's about recognizing these issues not as obstacles but as opportunities for growth, transformation, and ultimately, joy.
