How to Find More Freedom in Your Life - The Surprising Link Between Nature & Our Sovereignty

Freedom. We all want more of it, yet live in a world of inherited cultural norms and values that for many, keep us stuck and conforming to the status quo.

Add to it all of the recent events taking place in our country, and many people are feeling anything BUT free.

But it’s our human nature to want to be free. As little children we want to run wild and express ourselves in the moment. And yet, as we grow up into adults in a world so riddled with rules, restrictions, and societal judgement, our freedoms gradually get taken away.

how to have the best day ever with a morning routine that works

You’ve been feeling a little “off” lately, and you just can’t seem to shake it. Could it maybe be your morning routine (or lack of an intentional one) that could supercharge you from just ok to AMAZING?

Here’s the things about mornings… they happen everyday. And if you’re starting everyday letting how you feel, your social media (other people’s lives), or your giant to do list drive your day, chances are you may be left feeling anxious, pulled in every direction, and, well, a little “off”.

There’s a reason everybody is talking about the importance of having a good morning routine… but doing the things everyone is recommending is NOT the answer. You’re a unique snowflake :) - but seriously - we’re all born with different bodies, different neurochemistry, and having different lives. So whether you wake up to a house full of kids that need your attention, or you’re not a morning person, there are a few simple hacks everyone can implement and get amazing results from. It just requires a little discipline (more on this later) and a good reason WHY you want to do it.

Why You Need to Get Comfortable with Being Uncomfortable

Life purpose.

It sounds daunting and huge. But in my view, it’s really what your life has led you to do RIGHT NOW. You may have a job you love, or one you hate. You may be a mother or father, an entrepreneur - whatever you are and however you define yourself, life purpose is the CONSCIOUS choice you make for your life in that moment.

You may spend your life pursuing your life purpose, and that is AMAZING! The goal of our lives is not to finally “get there”. There is no finish line. If you wake up everyday happy, loving what you do and who you are, I would define that as “life working for you.”

Our brains are hard wired to seek certainty, making judgements about what is “safe” and predictions based on past programming. And amidst any sort of threat - whether perceived or real - your brain triggers our own biology into feelings of anxiety, fear, and panic.

Enter 2020, when the entire world was turned upside down with a pandemic. Without warning, everyone’s life was disrupted - emotionally, financially, and experientially.

For our brains, the experience of uncertainty is both cognitively taxing and anxiety producing. In fact, when all neurological resources are directed towards fearing uncertainty, your ability to make decisions, assess situations with clarity, and even your ability to learn is disrupted.

So how do you move forward, let alone achieve your goals and find inner peace during times of chaos and unpredictable change?
