Falling Out of Alignment: How We Evolve on Our Spiritual Path.
08/19/19 • 26 min
No matter how far you have progressed on your spiritual journey, somewhere along the path, it is normal to fall out of alignment. While this seems quite contrary, it's a must. While this can be hard to accept, we need to continue to experience these moments in order to continue to grow. Everything is happening for us in some way, even if we can't see it in the moment.
Whether it’s your ego, someone who is close to you or an event in life, it is natural for us to revert back to old ways of thinking, reacting or being. Its normal to resist, even though we all know what we resist persists. It is through our awareness and curiosity that we can continue to bring ourselves back into alignment, learning from these instances where we are tested.
True growth comes from how resilient we can be during trying times and from our failures. All ‘failure’ is really just feedback. As we surrender to the ebb and flow, the light and the dark, we have the power to cultivate radical acceptance for what is so that we can rise up higher each time toward our truth, not staying stuck in the past. Learning, not resenting. Curious, not fearful. Peaceful, not resistant.
Honor yourself through the seasons and know that these are the hard lessons and challenges that build true growth. The continual experience of contrast allows us to launch new desires as we continue to evolve into the happiest, healthiest, highest version of ourselves.
This is the journey. There is no final destination. We are always arriving. Embrace it. Radical Acceptance is where our freedom lives.

Masculine + Feminine: Finding the Balance of Both Energies.
Dr. Tanvi Gandhi has a Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine and is a licensed Acupuncturist here in Connecticut and New York. She is the founder of Shiva/Shakti Acupuncture and Ayerveda LLC and the creator of Sri Wellness Space. Tanvi is passionate about empowering her patients with tools for self -healing, self-awareness, deep restoration and ultimately, helping people come back to their true essence which involves balancing the masculine and feminine energies within themselves.
In this episode we chat about how we all, regardless of sex, have both masculine and feminine energy. Society has caused us to repress our divine feminine based on our fast paced masculine way of living and doing in the world today. We talk about the importance of embodying both and how they benefit our existence when balanced. We also break down how past experiences, especially in child hood could have caused us to embody more of a wounded masculine and/or wounded feminine. You will be able to recognize symptoms in yourself, having a better awareness of why you may have felt stuck, maybe even in a viscous cycle, based on where you may have an energy imbalance.
Dr. Tanvi shares how we can tap into the abundance of lunar cycles to activate our divine feminine, connect more with our inner selves, each other, the world and ultimately, find more balance in our lives. Through this path of reconnection we can begin to let go of what’s no longer serving us be it old narratives, behaviors or ways of being, and begin to call in more of what we want by creating a new narrative for ourselves through each phase of the moon.
It’s refreshing to hear how she describes the importance of honoring the light and the dark, the yin and the yang, the masculine and the feminine, the ebb and flow, and how we can begin to dance with it all as we continue to co create our desired realty with the Universe.

Releasing Limitations Toward Your Spiritual Growth.
Often, when we are not causing our own personal limitation toward progressing to higher levels of being, there are several external influences that can. Part of this journey is being open and vulnerable. Calling yourself to higher levels of being, which can scare people when you no longer feed their ego, can appear to be unorthodox and too far beyond their emotional capacity to meet you.
This is ok. You are ok.
Know that you may continue, even if that means leaving others behind who no longer align with your values of how you want to experience this life. But, you must do it from a place of love, understanding and humility. This is your journey, it is vital that you do what you need to in order to change negative thoughts, actions, behaviors and ways of being in order to step into your authentic truth. It's important to honor how you feel and to protect your energy. It's the only way to RISE.
The healthiest, happiest, highest version of ourselves is something we choose on a daily basis, it requires taking inventory and leading our lives with the courage to walk away from anything that is no longer serving us.
This journey of soul expansion does not require anything but BEING your true self and living in integrity with your highest self.
Learning to be silent. To be still. To find peace. Often, the result of being alone can be a result of no longer going with the flock, which can generate emotions of fear and apprehension. Our ego doesn’t want someone else to think ill of our new found awareness and motivation for calling ourselves to more, especially when it may be someone we love and respect. Know that this is partly your old self’s ego that is not at ease with change and what can come with that.
If you have all ready become aware that there is more to you and for you and you are ready to do the work and step into your true reality, but fear what others might think, understand that those who are meant to be in your life will show up. They will celebrate you as you morph into a happier, healthier, higher version that continues showing up for yourself. Those who are not, will soon be forgotten.
If we allow others to ultimately affect our own personal conscious and stunt our spiritual growth, you will always be cognizant of the fact that you will continue to live in resistance. Against your own spiritual code. Knowing the possibilities of what could have been, if only you did not fear what comes with taking off this mask that has only grows heavier with each year. The soul is calling.
Step through that threshold, stop limiting yourself, know that a whole other way of thinking lies just beyond. A place where fear is suffocated by love. Where you are no longer victim to feelings of remorse and criticism from other’s perspective of how you should be. You get to choose. You get to decide. You are now consciously stepping off the path that was laid out for you and walking the path that was always meant for you. Your soul is calling, continue to honor yourself, continue to answer the call and the right poeple will show up to walk this journey with you.
