Coming back to society after isolation

We have all been there in our spiritual journey where we want to be alone and we don’t want anyone around—but if we stay that way for too long, we miss out on the most amazing opportunities of our lives.

What are the opportunities?

Well, I’m going to break it down in the easiest way possible.

When you are exposed to certain people and their patterns your entire life, you only know these types of thoughts, nervous systems and ways of being. And if it was traumatic in any way, of course you’re going to want to isolate and not have anyone around you anymore.

This feeling is completely normal and happened to me from age 17-27. For 10 years I really just stuck to myself a lot (besides socializing and stuff), but I put my best foot forward and learned, grinded, tried everything to help heal myself and grow as a person. Then around 25 I realized that I needed friends and I didn’t want to be so lonely anymore. I had healed so much that I was lonely in my beautiful apartment downtown in my city, at truly my ‘highest’ career and life point yet.

So instead of dwelling in my loneliness, I went to Greece to learn more about their culture and I realized that they’re rarely without friends—which was completely different than what I was used to seeing… in my entire life actually.

It was fascinating to see (but it also has it’s disadvantages which I think I will write about next)

However, it did make me realize that the environment I was living in (Canada) wasn’t so supportive of my goals to grow more, so I made the decision to move to Athens, Greece.

And now I’m 28, and I have the bestest friends and most healthy relationships I ever had/seen and really, it was all due to the isolation era and then knowing when I needed others to help me grow even more because I was never meant to be alone.

The journey is never an easy one. But it’s always worth it.

The reason I say it is because exposing myself to different people than I was used to made me realize that I had a lot of growth to do and it was uncomfortable to be so peaceful with others. I had always been around people who were wild and unpredictable, depressed, anxious, and saw the world through a negative lens. So for me to be around people who were the opposite, I was always waiting for something bad to happen…

But when nothing bad happened, I eased…

I EASED! I finally relaxed.

And then I blossomed.

Which led me to making the Ancient Academy and creating the Divine Alignment retreat, because I knew there was more out there and that everyone could access it.

So I’m telling you from experience, healing and retreating is important BUT coming back out into the world is just as equally as important and I write it out in a graph with this new YouTube video that you can watch.

Honestly, if this is something you want for yourself (a community) then begin to send light to the idea and the light will do the work for it to come into your life.

You’re worthy of everything good and beautiful in this world, I hope that you believe that. ❤️
