Have you ever wondered if “feeling into alignment” is just a sophisticated, spiritual form of procrastination? For many lightworkers, this seemingly noble practice can become The #1 Red Flag Of Spiritual Self-sabotage, a subtle cycle that prevents you from creating the life and purpose you came here to live out.
Prefer to watch? I’ve put my video below or if you’re a reader simply continue reading the post.
The Truth About Alignment and Procrastination
A huge red flag that tells me someone is not going to be successful at their goals is when they say something like this, “Let me feel into if it’s in alignment for me.”
Here’s the truth. Your heart and soul knows if something is in alignment for you the moment it entered your awareness. Anything after that is procrastination.
That hesitation is delay. It is an excuse to allow your mind, your self-sabotage patterns, your triggers, and your old nervous system programming to come up with logical, and sometimes even spiritual-sounding, reasons to avoid taking action. It’s simply avoidance in disguise.
Spiritual Excuses as a Defense Mechanism
People that have learned not to avoid, but to jump right in with both feet, take the opportunities, and walk through the doors that are opened for them are the ones who succeed.
Everyone else will make excuses. They’ll make spiritual excuses, energetic excuses, and alignment excuses. And while it sounds spiritual, like they’re doing something noble and important by “feeling into” their alignment, it’s just an excuse to delay. It gives their old patterns time to justify staying put where it’s safe rather than moving forward, because movement is often uncomfortable.
The #1 Red Flag Of Spiritual Self-sabotage: Your Nervous System’s Familiarity Bias
Your nervous system doesn’t know if you’re going to be able to live as that embodied version of yourself on the other side of whatever opportunity has presented itself. Therefore, it will defend the position that is familiar and safe.
To do that, it will mask itself under the language of spirituality and alignment. It will often cloak itself under the guise of being enlightened, creating a sophisticated barrier to your own growth and expansion.
How to Break Free and Take Action
Wake up. If you’re ready to build, you’re ready to create something powerful, meaningful, and to change your life. It’s time to break all of the cycles of self-sabotage, even the ones that hide under nice, spiritual-sounding language.
To truly break free and become the badass version of yourself that you came to this planet to be, you must move beyond these patterns.
