There’s a common misconception that we can fall into on the self love path that tells us that if we are really ‘doing it right’ that we are going to get to a place where ALL of our answers to the questions and problems we have in life come from within us.
That we are always going to be the source of our own solutions.
That if we are really listening to our intuition and our internal guidance system that this means that we will always just ‘know’ what to do.
There’s a spiritual saying that ‘all the answers are within you’ if you are just willing to listen hard enough.
This is actually a totally false idea, and in fact it can be really toxic and even dangerous if we take it too far.
The truth is, no matter how self loving we become, no matter how good we get at listening to our intuition, no matter how earnestly we show up to our spiritual disciplines and so on - there will ALWAYS be things that we don’t know, and answer that need to come from outside of ourselves.
So how do we balance this? How do we determine the difference between the times when we DO need to look within for our answers, that the times when we need to ask for external help?
How do we stay open to external help without then feeling like we’re dependent upon that for answers that really DO need to come from ourselves?
How do we stay grounded in reality without abandoning ourselves for what others ‘think’ we should do?
This is what we will explore today.
