Reinvention Defined: The action or process through which something is changed so much that it appears to be entirely new.
Many times in life we are given the opportunity to reinvent parts of ourselves.
Why?
Because the old way is no longer serving our highest good, hindering us in some way, stopping us from moving in the best direction, and no longer vibrates with our highest self.
Thought Processes
If we are stuck in an old way of thinking about ourselves, a relationship, a situation or circumstance, engaging in self deprecating thoughts about our past, our feelings, our actions or our physical self, reviewing the service and meaning of a particular relationship in our lives, or have chosen to stay too long in a circumstance or situation where we have placed ourselves in the victim's seat, we need to start to think differently.
Beginning to practice thought awareness is a huge step in the direction of positive change. We cannot shift anything until we become aware, and it all starts with our thoughts.
Emotional Response
The way we react to every experience, encounter or opportunity is within our control, but it can be easy to settle into a particular judgment or conditioned perspective, and only respond from that place.
Reframing and redefining the experiences we are currently facing in a positive light, will help create entirely different responses that serve us and others in a much better way.
Breaking Cycles
Cycles happen as part of the human condition. They help us feel safe and comfortable. But, some of the cycles that we are involved in are not serving us positively.
Changing negative patterns, even just a little, initiates entirely new cycles that spark a better way of existence and can lead to transformation and elevation.
Physical Transformation
Since we are physical beings living on a physical planet, we are heavily affected by our body and the environment around us.
Choosing to make positive shifts in the physical realm literally upgrades our life experience. When we allow ourselves to exist in a space and body that we honor and respect, our energy responds by rising.
Reimagine
Looking at the pieces and parts of our lives that are no longer serving us, that we wish to change, or that are just not aligned with our highest good can be scary and may bring up internal fears or trigger emotional responses that can keep us restricted.
Often times it’s best to first start working with our mind in a playful, nonjudgmental, easy state of imagining to lift our energetic vibration, dispel fear, and allow ourselves to get used to the possibility of doing things differently.
Allowing your mind to freely dream about what it would be like to make positive changes, be in positive situations, or think positive thoughts provides a jumping off point for positive feelings to arise, and positive actions to follow.
Redefine
In order to feel the energy and results of reinvention, we must allow ourselves the opportunity to actively and truthfully assess the parts of ourselves and our lives that we would like to change. Narrowing down what isn’t working gives us the chance to focus on what we need to shift.
The redefining process starts with how we choose to think about ourselves, our relationships, and our experiences. Deciding to change the way we think, changes the way we feel, and changes the way we act. Redefining what is good for us, what makes us happy, and what we want or need will lead us to making choices in our physical lives that serve our highest good, attract happiness, and give us what we truly want and need.
The moment you begin to actively redefining who you are, what you are willing to accept in your relationships, and what you believe you deserve for your future, you open up a door for unlimited possibilities to be presented for your absolute highest good.
Reclaim
There are pieces and parts of ourselves that we willingly give away throughout our life experience. When we are faced with trauma, frustration, overwhelm, challenges or anything that we have not yet learned how to navigate, we may make the choice, whether consciously or unconsciously, to release a part of our true divine self.
These pieces that we release are not gone forever, instead they are held by the divine source, and kept safe for us until we are ready to call them back to ourselves.
During the process of reinvention, you may feel empty spaces that have been created by letting go of these pieces. You may shift in a way that allows you to understand that you are ready to take back a part of yourself that you need in order to feel whole at this time. Lovingly calling back the pieces and parts of yourself that you have given away, and allowing yourself to reclaim your divine essence is a beautiful experience in which your own light lifts you to a new state of being.
Reinvention does not have to be overwhelming. It begins with choosing to look at what is no longing helping us, and instead of continuing to ignore what is holding us back, we make the choice to release and change it, and in doing so, we offer ourselves the opportunity for elevation, transformation, and life lived at a higher state of vibration.
