Embracing Your Full Self: Being Spiritual and Loving Reality TV
We love a girl that can do both: get into a super juicy meditation and breath work sesh, and then later in the day be relaxed on the couch binging the new season of Real Housewives. And we’re never feeling guilty about it!!!
I think back to an earlier time in my spiritual journey, where I would feel some weird sort of guilt when I would do the things that I “used to do”, like watch reality TV, scroll TikTok for a couple hours, or engage in some celebrity gossip with my friends. Ya know…the things that make you feel human.
In all honesty, I felt like I should be “above” that in some sort of way, like I was supposed to have ascended to a place where I didn’t even know who the Kardashians were or what Real Housewife just got fired.
It felt like that kind of information shouldn’t be interesting to me anymore, so I literally felt shame and guilt when I would watch it.
But here’s the thing…WE get to choose how we spend our time as individuals. WE get to embody the electric, powerful, magnetic authenticity that we are all so blessed to experience.
And as I’ve deepened my authenticity, I’ve come to the realization that I GET to do whatever the hell that I want, and I will not spend one more day feeling guilty about it.
Some days I am running around my magical fairy land secret garden with my highest self during a meditation, feeling God literally flow through me and Mother Gaia holding me.
And the next day I may curl up on my couch for hours and watch Love is Blind.
This doesn’t make me any less “spiritual” or any less “connected.” It makes me, ME. A multi-dimensional human being that has a wealth of interests, passions, and things that bring me authentic joy.
If I could make one wish that would radiate throughout the entire universe, it would be that all people get to experience embodying their authenticity.
The version of you, without programming, without societal beliefs, and all of the other bullshit that we put on ourselves because we are too afraid to be seen as who we truly are.
Who you truly are is absolutely magnificent. And powerful. And capable of making absolutely any change that you desire to.
I pledge in this moment that I will stand in my authenticity. I will allow my interests, passions, and desires to flow through me, with the invitation to change as they so wish, just like the flow of the ocean.
Maybe I’ll wake up tomorrow and I’ll be sick of the Housewives (doubtful), but until then, CHEERS to me. And cheers to you, for being you.
Sending you so much love,
Sara
