“Why do I feel disconnected from myself?” A question you may be asking yourself.
Existence. It is what we all share. We also all often share the existential question. Why do I feel disconnected to myself?
HOW do you even know you have a self to be disconnected to?
You just do, huh?
NO!
You see, we are all under the universal understanding agreement and even true undertaking that we are souls. And that there is a true feeling to being disconnected to one’s soul. Otherwise, this question would never come up.
Let’s call it a truth. Let’s call it a truth that one holds deep within them, deep within the fiber of their being, therefore in their blood, in their bones, in their fluids, tissues, organs and yes even aura. A person who is connected to themselves has to prioritize their truth. The truth. The highest clarity of truth and highest lived virtue of truth. This is not to say an almighty God sort of truth. More of a heart led, soul calling sort of truth that won’t go away no matter how hard you try to nudge it away. It's in that disconnection that a tension is born. A longing. A tiring, A trying to “figure it out” a through is a sort of manual on being you. Well, guess what!? There isn’t! There is no manual to be you. Even saying, only you know how to be you is BS because aren’t we all discovering what is to be ourselves? So, as we look to connect to the true core self may we truly see that as the unchanging nature of ourselves. The unchanging, unwavering, ever patient, ever nudging, ever bulging out of us. Bringing up the question… Why Do I feel disconnected to myself?
Guess what, number 1: it's more common that you would think! I used to alway think that most people had their shit together and I didn’t! Hah! Nope. As a health care provider I get to see the truth we all hide underneath the cloak of society. That which we all deal with on a daily basis yet sit there and suffer in silence on. Yes, we all suffer in silence thinking we are the only one. When, truth be told, each one of us has SOME sense of doubt about ourselves. To varying degrees each of us feels connected to a core sense of one’s self or not. Think of it as a spectrum.
Connected to Self <___________________________> Not Connected to Self
You see, when you look at it from the perspective of it simply being an aspect of life and not “wrong” that at times you or I feel disconnected then it allows us to move forward rather than defining our whole selves by how we are “feeling” connected with our core self today.
And yet, When you are asking yourself “Why do I feel so disconnected to myself? You may very well be having an upgraded awakening, if you will. A call to heightened awareness of who you really are and the capacities and capabilities you really do have.
“Dying to oneself” is also an aspect to conscious growth and evolution. The self we are referring to here is the “false self” ( of which I talk more about in my book Good Grief).
Ego death is a thing. And is it a very critical “thing” event or happening on the path to being connected to your core true self more and more. The more apt one is letting go, surrendering, releasing. The more one is able to move through phases of growth and questioning of who one really is and why you do feel disconnected to yourself, the more one is taking responsibility for their life.
The thing is, this phase, That question IS GOLD!
Because asking yourself “Why do I feel so disconnected to myself? Is actually asking yourself…
“What is my truth!?”
and that is a damn good question!? A high vibe question.
And high vibe questions get high vibe answers.
And yes sometimes, there is silence, sometimes you simply have to sit with the question. Not expecting an answer because as you do, THEN, right THEN, is when the most profound truth of your existence will emerge. It is where the unknown becomes exciting rather than frightening. When the unknown is your friend, you take solace until the end. Where you realise there really is no end to discovering yourself in this life. So sleep still tonight, knowing pondering this disconnect will bring the reconnect.
And if you’d really love to tackle the question head on. I got you.
