5 Tips for Becoming YOURSELF

do you think you are you? or do you think you are a version of you that society, your mom, or your bf make you into..

Listen, we all come from this place in society, raised by our parents, and then want the person we are with romantically to keep liking us. You are not wrong for doing this..it is how the world works right now. BUT.

How long are you actually going to keep living like this???

It is time to remember you are in control now. No one is creating, managing, or orchestrating your life other than you. so ask yourself again.. are you being YOU or a version of you?

5 tips for becoming YOURSELF

1. sit in silence more...to get to know you, you need to be with yourself. start by sitting alone in silence for 5 minutes... and no you cant be on your phone lol

2. before you get dressed in the morning- ask yourself "am i wearing this for me or am i wearing this for others"

3. try new things. a new class, food, style, cafe, art...

4. get to know you- journal like you are getting to know a date or a best friend. ask yourself who am i? what do i want to do in life? what am i passionate about? etc.

5. go PLAY. do something you use to do as a kid. most times we are at our truest form when we are kids before we are taught "how to act" or "how to be" go back to doing something you loved to do as a kid and do that

there is plenty of room to explore yourself. just because you have been doing something the same way for x amount of time, maybe for years doesn't mean that is is how you truly want to do them. remember, self discovery and expansion is a lifetime journey. you don't just stop learning about yourself once you become an "adult" ... i think that is when we just get started. allow yourself to explore different sides of yourself. try new things. after all the more that we figure out what we don't want or don't like the more we figure out what we do like and who we are more of..

...also remember you are so much more than the body you have right now. you are bigger that that

BONUS TIP: meditate for 20 minutes. get out of your body into your energy and feel how big, powerful, and vast you are

message me what you discover about yourself!!

5 reasons you are keeping yourself STUCK & what to do about it

And this is only the first 5 reasons... I know you have more.

Read and find out how many you have.

I get it. Changing anything in your life feels scary, unobtainable, or down right impossible. But can I argue that this is just your belief? What if it is actually the opposite of what you think.

Read below & listen to episode #9 on the podcast for more.

Reason #1 - You aren't even allowing yourself to DREAM

You are feeling unenthusiastic with your life right now but you don't even know what you would want!!

Like have you even given yourself permission to dream yet???

Reason #2 - You think what you can have is what you see

You look around the people in your life and you already assume this is what is for me. The money, lifestyle, circumstance, abundance, love, relationships...everything you see in your family and friends you assume that is what you are going to get.

Reason #3 - You put up your own BLOCKS & walls up

YEAHHHHHH. Hard pill to swallow. But the truth is really ANY reason you say "I can't do that" "thats not possible" "thats not meant for me" you are the only one that is standing in your way. You are the block. No one or nothing else. It is you.

Reason #4 - You make excuses

1. I am not smart enough

2. I don't deserve that

3. I don't have enough money

4. I wouldn't ever be able to do that

ughhhh. How depressing is that???

Reason#5 - My life is good- so why do i want more?

This trap gets people the most... You think you have a good life or have it better than others so why am I wanting more or different?

You- "Okay ERICAAA. You got me. I have 1 or more of those reasons. But now what??"

What To Do About It

1. First get clear on what you want. Take 20 minutes of uninterupted time to jot down what you want

2. Don't forget to allow yourself to dream BIGGGG

3. Write down your top 5 statements you say to yourself that stops you from doing the impossible. Write down all 5. I know you have at least that many

4. Awareness is KEY. When we notice what we do to limit ourselves that is the first step to changing

5. Give yourself permission to live the life you want. You came here to CREATE, feel ALIVE, & really LIVE. Do not stay stuck in the life you have just because you think you shouldn't want more.

6. Meditate daily.

7. Don't know why I am telling you to mediate?? This allows you to detach from what you know and tap into what you don't know, it is the space of creation, the time where you can dream of everything. PS.. anything you can think of already exists.. so bring it into your reality.

8. Listen to the podcast to get deeper.
