Trusting yourself is the key to transformation.
In a world where we are told, from the moment we begin to release from the womb, that we're “wrong” and the authority above us is always right; distrust in self is normal. But what if we told you that trusting yourself is one of the first steps in liberation? This isn’t a skill that just happens overnight, especially considering your life circumstances, and how deeply you’ve been taught that trusting yourself isn't safe. Where can you prove, in little ways, that you have your own back?
For example, do you trust yourself to drink enough water today? Use a tool to help you remember; set an alarm, get a happy water bottle, check in with your intake at each meal. Equip yourself with the proper tools to execute your plan at hand. And if you miss the mark, offer yourself love and compassion, and try again.
Find the ways to build upon each moment where you can trust yourself. You’ve gotten your own two feet this far in life, haven’t you?
2. It’s time to take a closer look at the things you don’t trust.
What (or who) do you stay weary of in life? Why? Now is the time to reevaluate your relationship to these things and gain a deeper understanding into why you don’t trust them. Is it your family? Men? Money? The government? God? No matter where you are in your journey of healing and awakening, you are being urged to look deeper into these pain points of distrust. Where does this distrust stem from? Who or what along the way taught you that it is unsafe to trust this said thing(s)?
Some things, or people, might present a very valid reason to distrust them, and if trusting that person/object/concept is in your best interest, leave it where it’s at and remove it from your life. But if this is holding you back then it’s time to deepen the relationship to be more symbiotic.
3. Belief is trust.
Do you believe that good things will come your way? Do you believe that most people are inherently good? Do you believe that you’re going to wake up in the morning? Or make it to work safely? All of this belief stems from trust. Even if you think you aren’t trusting of the universe and its grand plans, you behave in minuscule ways that prove that you do trust the universe.
As mentioned above, it’s time to take a look at the areas in which you're distrusting but it’s also time to look at where you already place trust, without realizing it. Belief in anything is trusting the thing you’re believing in. Even if it’s believing in a negative outcome, you are trusting that negative experience to take place. Trust, just like belief, always exists somewhere, where are you giving your energy to?
4. It’s okay to trust things that you can’t prove to others.
“Can you cite your source?” Yes. I can. It’s myself and my own intuition. Sometimes, that’s all you need. You don’t need any external validation to trust the feelings and messages you are receiving through your own personal channel. Be okay in knowing that most people won’t understand what it’s like to just trust their gut. The more you do it, the more you inspire those around you to trust their own intuition as well.
This ties back into the message of trusting yourself. You don’t need an external source to prove that you know what’s best for you. Because you are the only person walking in your shoes and living your life, it’s your own discernment that determines who and what you can trust. This is (part of) why it is so important to trust yourself, because the deeper you trust yourself, the more confident and willing you are to follow your gut feelings.
5. Trusting is like committing to a long term relationship.
It will have its highs. It will have its lows. Trust takes work, commitment, and perseverance. If you think of trust, in any aspect, like a marriage you will understand that it isn’t perfect by any means. You will have personal learning curves, pain points, advantages, and disadvantages. There will be other people who will try to insert their own opinions. There will be circumstances out of your control. It’s something that takes time to build, and when you’re in a proper flow it will feel really good. Where there is resistance, it’s an area to focus on with love, intent, and commitment to pushing through to the other side.
At the end of the day, trust, and distrust, is a deeply profound experience in our lives. It can be a major indicator of where we are needing more support, assistance, love, or understanding. Whether from ourselves or others. Trust is the glue that holds the pieces together, even if you don't realize it. Where distrust is prominent, it’s still the glue that holds together disserving belief systems. Lean into your heart, into the universe, and commit to learning and integrating a more trustworthy life.
