What if you really listened to your desires?
Listening for cues about your deepest desires. The things that you long for also long for you. Denying your desires means they go unmet and become places of sadness or darkness.
When we get curious about our desires and let ourselves go even deeper, looking for what is below the desire we may find various unmet needs.
This is the sacred part of Sacred Listening.

“Intuition is not a single way of knowing - it's our ability to hold space for uncertainty
and our willingness to trust the many ways we've developed knowledge
and insight, including instinct, experience, faith and reason.”
- Brené Brown

The invitation is to deepen into curiosity and leave judgemental thoughts behind. Bumping into desires that may feel inappropriate or out of reach does not mean something about you other than the fact that you happen to have that desire.
Close your eyes.
Relax your body.
Open your mind.
Listen.
What comes up?
Color, Shape, Image?
A Word, a phrase?
Ask, What do I most deeply desire?
Now ask, what is it about this desire that feels good, right or fulfilling in some way?
No judgement, just curiosity, how does that feel?
What would it feel like to fully possess this thing?
How would your life be different if this desire were met?
These are the cues that would guide you towards a deeper connection with yourself, towards falling in love with your life, again.
The life you dream of is sacred and possible.
