Inner Practice: Trauma is your Expansion

In life when you have been through certain traumas or hardships, trying to live a normal or simple and balanced life is going to burn you out quick and it is going to make you question yourself. Because daily tasks, daily simple things you need to do just to survive as a normal human being starts to feel like a big challenge. Once there is no bad things happening in your life,  you will start to feel like you are weak and you will question yourself when life is just simple.


You are meant for a lot more with what you are currently living and what you are currently doing. You are meant to have a big shift and a big change.


You are not weak, you are not crazy. The level of strength that you have from going through trauma is not normal. It is just not being utilized.


Potentials and Capabilities



The whole thing about potential of what you are and what you can do in this life is constantly raising. You don’t have one potential and one purpose in this life. It constantly grows and changes, the more you experience and the more your capabilities grow, the more your potentials grow. Because the more capabilities you have, the stronger you get, the smarter you get, the more capable you are of achieving more things. Your potential is constantly growing and changing. But this works both ways.

 


Trauma does this and increases your capabilities. And so do achievements and success. Because when you go through certain traumas, you get good at handling a lot of things, your body is used to and prepared for a lot of different types of stress, extreme amounts of stress, pressures most people cannot handle when you go through traumatic episodes and have bad things happen to you and you undergoing hardships in life. It fully moulds your character and increases your threshold of things you can survive and handle and go through and it also changes the way your brain works.

 


But the biggest thing is it instills in you a lot of skills, and these are skills of very high level, depending on what you have been through. Same thing with achievement, when you achieve a lot of things, it makes you capable of a lot more, it makes you capabilities rise, your skills rise, your idea and perception of what is possible changes. Same thing with trauma. But just from a different angle.


What makes other people happy is not what will make you happy



What makes other people happy is not what that will make you happy especially when you have been through deep and big trauma.



After the holy baptism by traumas, you have a different level of things you are here in life to accomplish and things you are meant to do. A life of superficiality is not going to work for you anymore. Going about life like other people that lack meaning and can find fulfilment by just wearing some designer clothes or having some money or some fame, people that can be fulfilled by that are not meant to be understood by you. It doesn’t work for you, it’s not enough for you.



And if you have ever felt that way, that nothing ever seems enough for me after going through some deep moments in your life, your feelings are validated.



Because this is a sign you are meant for so much more.

Emotional Resilience & Mundane Corrosion

When you have been though a lot of hardships and trauma, the level of emotional strength that you gain from such extreme loss, heartbreak or hardship will be immense.

 

Because you are used to operating at such a high emotional state and with a strong amount of pressure on you, the high intensity life becomes the state of normal for you.

 

That is the emotional resilience you develop from your trauma.

 

When you are living through a traumatic period of your life, every decision you make is deemed extremely important and impactful, so much so that you have to put careful thoughts into each of them, as if each decision is life or death and comes with extreme reward or loss.

However, such emotional resilience will be your greatest obstacle in mundane life.

 

When you have been through a traumatic life episode, simple mundane life and daily simple tasks will instead become difficult and challenging. Because there is no big reward, no big impact, no big sense of relief or the experience of a benefit or change immediately in your circumstances. Simple things get very draining and you do not see the point in them. There is no fun, no reward because there is nothing in present that is stretching you and forcing you to execute and think and feel at a level you just got accustomed to.

 

And if you live in that too long, you will completely forget what you are capable of.

 

Living a ‘peaceful simple life’ will start to corrode you from the inside.

 

And that is when you will start to question yourself.

 

The thing is it is not about you who are not strong enough to do it now. It is about being in different circumstances and that it is a different version of you doing it who is not living in a life or death situation or a catastrophe. There is not enough emotional charge, much desire to get out of your current situation after you have gone through some really painful hardships. You are questioning yourself now because you are not being challenged at the level you need to be challenged at.

 

Your essence and your soul have levelled up, you have gotten new skills and capabilities and trying to go back now to a simple life will ruin you when you have that much potential and energy inside you. If you are not getting it out, if you are not creating things, doing things, challenging yourself and stretching yourself and using the skills at the level that you now have, they will destroy you from the inside. The first place this is going to hit you is mentally. So when you wake up with normal mundane days, you can easily slip into depression, because you forget who you actually are and all your skills and capabilities.

 

 You need to do so much more. You need to think even bigger.

 

Remember. You are indeed not normal anymore after what you have been through.

You are incredible and hold a much higher purpose.

Stop dimming yourself.

Start stepping out into the world as the beacon for all.

Trauma brings out your gift.

Trauma is your expansion.
