Hey, my name is Kaity and I'm from the east coast of Canada. For me, unstuck means that I am no longer living out of the false beliefs my trauma stories taught me, but learning how to feel safe enough to DO as well as DREAM. :) I am excited this community exists, because... 1) ...my best bud is super into manifesting atm, and David's book gave me such a clear explanation of it! 2) ...I am a holistic wellness coach, looking for support with the mindset and business side of things! 3) ...I am interested in connecting here, because I love the way David has set the tone with his own vulnerability and his acknowledgement of the impact trauma can leave on us! He wrote about "fog" inside ourselves, which I identified with because it is also an acronym for "Fear, Obligation and Guilt," used to explain the affect domestic abuse can have on us mentally. Let's just say I've been there. The past several months, I have been thick in the throes of grief due to the end of my marriage, and then losing my dear mother to cancer So when I read Lissa Rankin's recent articles about Spiritual Bypassing, I couldn't exactly relate. I do feel my grief, and had to get in touch with it at an early age as there was a grieving process that came with healing my chronic illness, too. But maybe anger is an emotion I struggle more with feeling, especially has it has been taken out on me in ways that were abusive by others. I related SO MUCH to Lissa's shift, when she said she was learning how to be kind to HERSELF as well as showing love and forgiveness to those who have hurt her and behaved abusively. Same. I have been working very hard to listen to myself (my coach is trained in Internal Family Systems), to learn my needs, to set boundaries, to identify red flags and safe people, and yet still when I start to shift into "manifestation mode," although it feels super good to be in a "flowing" and trusting and peaceful emotional state, I can find it a bit scary if I am being honest! Like the good feelings are good, but then the good things happening as fast as I can think them feels too good to be true?

As always, Best Wishes

2026 marks the 25th anniversary for me not watching a full news broadcast on TV. I saw bits of the news during the lockdown in 2020, due to family and friends pressure, but refused to sit through whole broadcasts. It's also been a quarter of a century since I read a newspaper. I used to get the jist of what is going on in the world through my wife and friends, but I have retreated totally these past few months by blocking breaking news headlines pop ups on my phone also. What first felt like an experiment, now feels natural. It's only the ego that worries about the ' external ' world. My only focus is on myself, ( NOT my Ego ) ! and my family. I know from past experience, if my experience is shity, so is everyone else's! Take your attention from whats going on in the world, and just play with life. You'll find is life is KNOWING what you truly are, and not what you THINK you are. Best Wishes

I get the impression that things are shifting for me …. What are the signs ?

Happy St Valentines day! I thought I'd share a short story I came across maybe 30 years ago. It's something that touched me back then, and I hope it might touch others in the community now. I heard it on a cassette tape ( remember those)? From 'Manifest Your Destiny' by Dr Wayne Dyer. A woman who was a severe drug addict, lay dying in her bed. The local priest was summoned to read the last rights to her. The priest noticed a framed picture of a young girl on the dressing table next to the bed. Who is this girl he asked? The dying woman replied ' That's my daughter, the one bright spark in my life, but I've ruined my life, and now I'm going painfully to hell'. The priest continued.... 'Would you always look after her, and love her for ever'? ' Of course I would. I would do anything for her, the woman cried. Why do you ask'? The priest answered 'because I want you to know that God has a picture of you, on his dressing table'. Always remember, YOU ARE LOVED! It's impossible to be completely alone. The force/energy that keeps your heart beating and the planet spinning, are one and the same. Best wishes💓
