Fearing the Unknown

It’s funny how you can know something is going to be good for you, but still feel so much anxiety around how it’s going to unfold.

The days and weeks leading up to my trip I was trying to figure out why I couldn’t just be excited.

It turns out flying solo is something that’s good for me, but not something that is comfortable for me (yet).

I’ve also never taken a trip longer than 8 days or so- so planning to be gone for about 3 weeks brought up many unforeseen questions and fears.

You’ve heard it a million times, but it’s true that everything you want is on the other side of your fear.

When I texted my friend Carly to meet me for a matcha in LA, I was so scattered from the flight and the rental car drama and feeling so much resistance to just settling into the adventure I was embarking on.

I’m thankful for synchronicity and for sweet friends who remind me that it’s okay to feel anxious while leaping into the unknown, as long as I don’t let the fear keep me from doing the thing.

It’s okay to not know how things are going to unfold. This is where your faith comes in.

As it turns out, every single time, the Universe has a far better plan for my life than I could ever write for myself.

Grateful and excited to be spending the next few weeks completing my 200hr yoga teacher training on the property of a beautiful Spiritualist Community nestled in the hills of California. Allowing myself to settle into being right here right now, instead of stealing from the present in order to fret about what will unfold next.

Enjoying the ride.
