THE BUZZ
Are You Ready for Change?
Advertisement
We are constantly in a state of change. Whether through the change in seasons or through milestones in life, as spiritual beings we are always evolving, healing, and learning more about ourselves as we traverse the seasons of our lives.
But are we ever truly ready? Do we try to control what life is throwing at us, or do we lean into the change? Uncertainty and feeling out of control can throw us off balance. We all have the inner resources to navigate the rapids, to enjoy the fl owing river, to refresh when our waters are low. Tapping into those resources are part of the spiritual journey we are all on. Regardless of our beliefs, our inner compass keeps us moving.
I have found that I thrive in change. As I look back through my life and the challenging and unexpected curves I have encountered, I realize each has propelled me in a direction that has brought me closer to living authentically. It is not always easy, though, to trust that the universe, the divine, is indeed right there with us. However, through my own practices I gain comfort (and even a bit of excitement) when change is upon me. My intuition, that connection with my spirit, is my guide and trusted advisor.
When I look back at my life, I see that everything I have experienced has led me to where I am today. From a child who loved to create, play, and imagine to an adult who has experienced deep loss and challenges, I have become a healer who accompanies and coaches others through sacred listening, color, crystals, and creative play. Even now I am on the precipice of major life decisions that may be frightening, but as a friend recently told me, “Courage is fear that has said a prayer.” Lauri Ingram, ordained by One Spirit Interfaith Seminary and a certifi ed Interspiritual Counselor, currently offers in-person spiritual coaching and creativity sessions at her North Haven offi ce, as well as by phone and Zoom.
