My Spiritual Awakening & Dark Night Of the Soul Story - Tools that helped me - Part 1 

Oh I feel you, that must be tough, but be kond with yourself the same way you would be if it was your friend going through this. I used to overanalyze me so much I would always end up with anxiety till I started meditating daily and then I was fully detached. What do you do to ease it up?

@@ChristinaDRaju I try and go to my breath and try to remember I am not my thoughts. Fearful thoughts come in and it's so hard not to attach to them. This is my second dark knight of the soul. I'm going to start practicing the meditation you recommended every morning before work. So I am grateful I found you. 🙏🏼 Hand a great day today!!

indeed, and sometimes it is not even that they do it consciously, it's just that their level of consciousness is somewhere where we no longer want to be and it is not yet their time to evolve.. so we must let go, but sometimes we meet again! It happened to me a few times

@@ChristinaDRaju - Very true. Btw, even with the wind noise in the video it's enjoyable to see the beach and nature while listening to what you had to say here. If you don't mind me asking, what state is this? I'm thinking it looks like northern east coast beach, or possibly northern California.

@@IKARIANOFFICIAL Yes, it is a beautiful beach, just like the rest of the country - it's in Portugal. We were just saying that some parts look like California, for example like the Coronado beach, and south in here looks like San Diego.

@@ChristinaDRaju - Wow, I was really way off target Lol......I guess because you speak such great english I assumed you lived in the US, plus those types of beaches look familiar to here as you mentioned. Portugal seems like a great place to live!

AH - We attract what we are - you said it! Welcome Angel and Light and Love to you!

You are in absolute control, what else makes you excited? Any sport, or any other type of expression?

Thank you Melaaa! Yes, when we don’t listen, sooner or later we find ourselves pushed in the corner with no other option but to rebuild everything from the base. I hope you are fine by now?

@@ChristinaDRaju 100% agree with you, there is no other option! I'm still on my healing journey but getting better all the time, and so much better than I was before. At some points I'm even thankful for this journey although it's taken me to the darkest and back. Thank you for asking 😊

Thank you for watching!

Namaskar Vaanya. It sounds very similar to me, yes. Nothing makes me happier than to be left alone in a forest. My family thinks it sounds like a horror movie plot, haha, I know it is the only place where my soul genuinely cheers. And indeed, there is no escape in the realm of duality but to find beauty and contentment in both sides of life. Then, we will be truly liberated and then there is no point in rebirth.

Hi Dave, I like what you said - the darkness had to surface to get healed by the light. One thing i realized when I went through it was that there was no escape. I had to look at my blocks and the way I lived and see how much it correlated and that it was time to unprison myself. Do you feel like you are NOW THE PERSON you were destined to be? (doesn't mean if fully developed yet, but on that path).

Hi Christina - I like the way you phrased your question. I am definitely on the path of being the person I'm destined to be. I'm still cleaning up some of my self-imposed blocks, but in a way that IS part of the person I'm destined to be - I'm doing the work I need to do to free myself. I have been blessed with many times where I am living from that highest self, and the pure joy of those times is just motivation to keep doing the work. I agree with you - there is no escape. That is one of the reasons I like your videos so much - you keep it real - we do have to do the work and go through some of those not-so-pleasant times so we can heal our wounds and live more and more from the highest self. The progress can seem slow at times, but it is working. Sometimes I will feel like I'm not making progress, but I'll reflect back and it's like - wow, look how far I've come compared to 5 years ago. A perfect example for me was when Covid first hit. The media hit us with so much fear-based information, and almost made it sound like the human population was going to be wiped of the face of the planet. But I had almost zero stress over it. I knew I'd be okay. I remember thinking at the time that if it had happened 5 years earlier I would have been freaked out and caught up in fear. When I really reflect back, all the has unfolded on the path of my life has been perfect for what I needed to learn.

Light and Love to you too!

Thank you Kaustubh, have a lovely week!

I realize your question is for Christina and not me, but if you don't mind, I would like to share a few thoughts with you. It could be that you need some time alone in this present moment to focus on your inner world for however long that may be. As an introvert (I'm one as well), we can easily spend much of our time alone and feel good, so there's nothing wrong with that. The one caution I might give, is to be aware if you might be avoiding people out of fear of being emotionally hurt in some way. It can feel safer to avoid people and be left alone, as then there is no one to hurt us. So I would say feel free to enjoy your alone time, and when ready, be open to being vulnerable to other people as well. Yes, other people will always hurt us in some way big or small, but it's part of the process of growing beyond the ego as well. We all have an ego, and it does serve some important purposes, so what we want is to be in control over it rather than it controlling us, as it does for most people. Ego has strong attachments to fear, pride, being a victim, or victimizing others. And we all struggle to some degree with one or more of those. And it's other people who are most likely to trigger it within us which is needed for growth if we are able to observe when it happens within us.

Sure I'd be happy to ✨ I don't think I received your email though
