Lena Stevens – Do you love every aspect of your life? Do you love what is happening in the world, on our planet, with your friends and loved ones? Do you wake up every day and feel that everything is perfect and right and you would not have it any other way?

If you answered yes, you are a rarity, as most of us have aspects of our lives that could be much improved and there are parts of our personal story and what we see happening in the world that we would give anything to change.

This month we have the opportunity to shift the cycle of feeling victimized and imprisoned by our story and to put into action our dreams for a better future. This is not going to happen passively.

This is an active time of releasing the old story, the attachment to suffering, blaming and complaining, and resetting the patterns to begin manifesting a new dream and living a new story.

It seems simple when put into words. However, the attachment to the comfort zone, no matter how unsatisfying it is, can be an enormous challenge to overcome. We simply do not believe we have the power to rewrite our story. Our story is the product of a set of rules, some conscious and some unconscious. In order to rewrite our story, we need to change and rewrite our rules. (there is a good exercise about this on the monthly support audio)

Taking baby steps in the process is crucial. Your story is made up of the sum of many little habits and patterns, so take one that is manageable and work with it until it shifts.

For example, if you constantly find yourself in less than desirable situations due to poor boundaries, then take “boundaries” as your focus and work on releasing the underlying pattern that keeps you saying yes when you should say no. It could be due to lack of self-esteem or a belief that you have to put yourself last in order to be a good person.

If we are to change the global story we have to change our personal stories first.  The patterns of negativity, fear, oppression and mistrust are rampant these days. Instead of focusing on what is “out there”, the key to rewriting the story is to focus on yourself and reflect on how the patterns of negativity, fear, oppression and mistrust show up in your own personal life.

What about all those beliefs that the environment is not supportive to you and that the very things that are supposed to give life and energy, such as the sun, the air, the food, the water are so contaminated that they will kill you instead?

There is truth to this statement because it is what we have collectively created. So, let’s create something different. What if every time you drank a glass of water, you honored the spirit of water as an ally and had gratitude for its life-giving properties and focused on the power of that elemental instead of fretting about pollution? What if you honored air in the same way? What if you honored the sun with gratitude and invited that energy in instead of fearing its negative impact?

Changing your story is changing your relationship with your environment and changing your relationship with the past as well as the future.  Changing your story requires discipline, action, commitment and the support of others.

Although this will not happen overnight, you may definitely see results in areas that are ready to shift. The discipline will be to observe where and how you are attached to the old story, and to take determined action to change it from a place of neutrality, compassion and inspiration.

This could be a very exciting month for some, especially those of you that love change, are comfortable with chaos, and are not attached to what others might think or how they may judge you.

For most, this month will come with some challenges in dealing with the fear reactions and projections of others as you are rewriting your story. Boundaries will be an issue and that is perhaps the first thing to reset for yourself as a protection against the judgment of others. (recommended online course: Boundaries and Protection)

Successfully rewriting part of your story will have a ripple effect on those around you and collectively we can begin to influence the greater story on the planet as well. The more you can change your story to fit your dreams of a better future and a better life, the more it will affect the whole as we are all connected. This is your service, to yourself and the planet, and there is lots of support this month.

We are still in an artisan year for a couple more months. Take advantage of this creative energy that can help you both destroy and let go of the old patterns and attachments, as well as create that new story using your imagination, expansion, discipline and intention.

How the month shows up

You Personally

This is a perfect time to reflect on your personal story and observe what part of it needs to be rewritten. You may feel that it is a daunting task. If so, break it up into baby steps.

For example, if your story includes a belief that no matter what you do, you cannot lose weight, that part of your story may include resentment towards your genetics or others that do not have that issue in their story. It could also include a sense of being victimized by your situation, a negative relationship with food including fear and a love/hate attitude with what you ingest and how it affects you.(there is good support on our monthly support audio)

Rewriting this story would include being fully present with your process and changing your relationship with what you ingest, seeing everything as nourishing and supportive and having gratitude for it instead of feeling bad about yourself. There are more aspects to this, but you get the idea.

You can do the same for any part of your story that has to do with your personal experience of life in terms of health, love, energy, satisfaction, prosperity, support, creativity, success, spirituality, discipline and overall well-being. It really is time to rewrite the story. We have all the tools. We know what we want.

The key is to start small with baby steps, staying neutral and disciplined, keeping good boundaries, paying attention and not allowing your ego to take over when fear or despair comes up. Practice not taking things personally especially when those close to you react to your changes that may threaten their attachments.

Relationships

This is a big month to focus on relationships and every personal story is intertwined deeply with relationships that each have their role in the story. Relationships are everything and your relationships form a big part of the foundation for your story. So, as you rewrite your story, you are shifting the positions and the roles of your relationships. Think of this as the grand play of life with you as the main character, and you are rewriting the script, giving those around you a different role, including yourself.
