The roadblocks of life are also blessed. | Christina’s Weekly Connect
Have you ever encountered a period in your life where everything seemed to be going "wrong"?
Maybe you're even going through this right now. Perhaps life is blocking you from progressing, from moving in the direction you want.
Welcome to the roadblocks of life.
These are the times when you feel like life isn't moving, everything you do hits a wall, nothing materializes.
In these moments, the ego gets frustrated, angry, restless. Usually, the first reaction to a roadblock is that you want to plow right through it! You want to kick that damn roadblock down and move ahead with your plans!
And it's at this exact moment that you should close your eyes and take a deep breath. Resist the temptation to kick and scream. Let the anger and frustration wash away.
Because the roadblock is there for a reason. And you're not going to see that reason if you are distracted.
The roadblock is really a gentle whisper from life, from the universe. And that whisper is a question:
"Are you energetically aligned with your true nature?"
This is what the universe is asking you when you encounter a roadblock. And what is your true nature? Peace, love, centeredness.
When you move through life with this kind of energetic foundation, then you are constantly aligned with your nature. And that is when wonderous things happen.
That is the place of miracles.
But sometimes, it's hard to be down here in 3rd/4th dimension, in matter. When we are matter, we forget sometimes who we are and what we are here to do.
So the universe reminds you by literally stopping you from moving any further. And look at how beautiful this is.
It's like your best friend that takes away the keys to your car, so you don't drive after drinking one too many.
A roadblock in life is a wonderful place to be at. Even if our egos don't think so.
It's the perfect place to reevaluate whether you want to continue moving through life with your current energetic foundation.
Because in the end, your energetic foundation is what helps co-create everything around you.
Do you want to create from Love or Fear? Do you want to keep walking through life with hidden subconscious patterns that limit you? Do you want to keep that anger or resentment inside of you forever?
These are all questions to be asked when you encounter roadblocks.
When life momentarily stops your progression, it's time for some serious introspection.
So what exactly should you do when life puts a roadblock in your way? Try this:
1-See the roadblock. This may seem obvious but it's actually quite easy for us to get wrapped up in the mind and go into "plowing" mode! The ego wants to react, it wants to move full speed ahead. So there will be a strong temptation to just keeping plowing along, even as life blocks you in every possible way.
Instead of kicking and screaming, pause for just a moment and recognize that you have encountered a roadblock and that it is there for your benefit. It is there to help.
2-Close your eyes, take a deep breath. This will allow you to come into a position of centeredness, of attention. You cannot understand what the roadblock is showing you unless you are paying attention. And full attention requires centeredness.
3-Ask yourself the BINGO question. Mentally ask or write down this question:
"Am I energetically aligned with my true nature?"
You can then follow up with some specific questions:
* "Is this action or plan that I want to follow through on in accordance with my inner truth?"
* "Am I walking down a path in life that is aligned with what my soul wants?"
* "Am I acting in accordance with Divine flow?"
Pause until you answer those questions and/or change your energy. Remember: the energetic foundation with which you act in the world is so much more important than the act itself.
So if you act from a foundation that is not of love, you will inevitably invite pain into your life.
The best thing you can possibly do when life blocks you is to pause and NOT act, until your energy has been reset.
Once you look within and change your energetic foundation, the roadblock disappears. It has served its purpose.
