It’s so nice to cruise through life, but life does have rough patches. Is there something positive to gain from moments where we feel down or frustrated? This episode talks about how to deal with descension, and why your ascension matters.

One of my all-time favorite things to do is walk down to the beach and watch the sun rise. No matter the weather, I really love the colors, the energy, and the differences from day to day. The ritual of walking and greeting the sun gets me into an energy of acceptance. 

I’m here to spend quality solo time with you for EP126’s Wise Walk as we discover our True Stride. I’m healing from an illness and still on the path to recovery. Recently, I received some medical intervention: antibiotics. The side effects aren’t my favorite thing in the world, but I know it’s necessary to get back to feeling better and doing what I want to do.

On our Wise Walk, I talk about embracing moments of descension so you can learn your lesson and ascend to higher heights. Being placed in these experiences can remind us of what is most important to us, or can be a chance to release undesirable energy before we enter a new level. Come with me as we reflect on these Wise Walk questions:

    • When you experience moments of falling, descension, or frustration, do you seek help and support?
    • As you get support, what is most important in the moment so that you can ascend?
    • How are you going to help yourself move past the frustration?
    • As you reflect on the last time you fell in life and had to refocus, what surfaced for you?

Of course, it’s okay to express frustration in these moments. These times can be draining. That’s why having support or having someone to vent to can make the transition easier on you.

Seek and accept the lesson in those moments of frustration or falling. When you fall, you can rise. Embrace lessons learned with these Wise Walk questions:

    • What are the priorities and relationships that you will continue to invest in?
    • What really matters to you anytime you do find yourself in that down state?
    • What lights you up to bring you into the ascension state?
    • How can you stay focused on them whether you’re in a down state or not?
    • Who is that support person you can vent to without feeling judged?
