How Grace Becomes Allowing

In our last post, we talked about finding stillness

when you’re feeling stirred up by self-judgement or difficult emotions,

and giving yourself the grace of your own love.

While grace is the act of lovingly accepting our imperfections,

Allowing is the practice of creating space 

for our imperfect selves to grow through our experiences, without judgment.

Grace requires us to replace self-criticism with self-compassion,

and Allowing flows naturally once we’ve received the gift of our own grace.

Allowing means that we give ourselves permission to simply Be ~

to let our emotions, mistakes, and limitations be what they are

without attempting to fix or rushing to condemn ourselves.

The more you practice Self-Love,

giving yourself grace becomes second nature.

It begins with an Awareness of your inner dialogue,

noticing when your self-talk turns harsh,

and then choosing to speak to yourself with loving kindness instead.

✨ Grace naturally becomes the energy of Allowing.

They're interconnected... One flows into another.

Grace gently whispers:

You are Allowed to be a work in progress,

and you will never have to be perfect.

It’s a loving acceptance and compassionate understanding

that we will always be learning and growing…

It’s why we’re here.

Grace holds space for our mistakes along the journey of becoming ~

encouraging us to evolve into ever more expansive versions of ourselves.

Self-Love is the practice of

Allowing ourselves to Be 

exactly as we are.

Leaning into presence and curiosity, instead of perfection.

Trusting that our feelings, our struggles, our humanity,

are all Divine experiences of our belonging, our journey, our Wholeness.

The more we practice loving ourselves,

the more grace we’ll give ourselves.

And the more grace we receive,

the more we’re able to Allow ourselves to Be,

exactly as we are, in each moment ~ flaws and all.

Allowing doesn’t mean we won’t shift unhealthy or destructive behaviors,

but it doesn’t demand or require change either.

It creates the space where healthy change is an intuitive evolution.

As we receive the grace of our own love,

we slowly remember our Wholeness ~

naturally Allowing ourselves the full human experience of our unfolding journey.

“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself as I am, then I can change.” ~ Carl Rogers
