There’s a part of the journey you don’t hear about a lot

Firstly, there’s the part where every time you ascend, your body tries to bring you back to the same place.

That’s the Continuity Lock. Your 32 trillion helicopter parents (aka your cells) that have one job = To preserve the status quo.

But when you unlock that response, there’s another level of the journey.

Everything is changing all of the time.

Because there’s not the normal response of your body slamming on the brakes, and you needing to gently coax it out of that and keep moving forward….

There’s only acceleration. And the faster you go, the faster you go.

At first, that’s disconcerting because there’s a fear that you’ll spin out of control. But once you’ve solidified in your center, it’s actually the opposite. It feels like extreme calm, and like you’re inside the center of the hurricane.

Life keeps moving SUPER FAST around you. But you’re not off balance because you’re grounded in the middle.

Heard in people constantly asking me: How do you do everything you do?

Me: Me? I feel like I’m going at a snail’s pace 😂

The thing that is disconcerting at that level…. There is no normal. There’s no new normal, there’s no today normal, there’s no old normal.

Because the current state doesn’t stay the same for longer than a day or two before it’s already moving and evolving.

(The irony is this is ALWAYS the case in principle, but we are really good at creating states of being where it seems like nothing is changing)

As soon as my poor body has settled into a new speed, there’s a new speed knocking at the door.

Well, it isn’t so much knocking at the door as it is letting itself in, picking me up, putting me on its lap and taking off.

It leads me often to answer the question: “How are you? “ … with “I’m not sure. Let me see what’s going on right in this moment”

Have you experienced this? What are your favorite ways to be with this?
