You Are Your Own Guiding Light
….You just have to remember.
There is a Truth inside of you that only you can know.
Not your partner, your family, your therapist, or even your spiritual teacher can fully name what is True for you — because it lives within your direct experience. It’s a knowing that exists across every layer of your being:
physical
mental
emotional
energetic
nervous system
spiritual
No one else can define what your True Self feels like — or what it should look like to express it.
When we’re disconnected from that knowing, we’re more likely to be defined by the outside world. We become enmeshed in relationships where it’s hard to tell what’s “ours” and what belongs to others. Our thoughts, feelings, and energy become blurred. Our boundaries weaken. Our sense of self can fragment.
But when we are rooted in our own resonance — in what’s True — we begin to shine again.
We remember who we are.
What brings us alive.
What calms our nervous system.
What makes us feel radiant, clear, and grounded in our own inner light.
How do we remember who we are?
There’s a common misconception that you need to be a monk or mystic to access your True Self — but that’s not true. Your Truth lives within you right now. You don’t have to earn it. You just have to reconnect with it.
“Truth is a resonance.
It feels like home.
It isn’t a concept or belief — it’s an unmistakable frequency.
It’s expansive. Illuminated. Free.”
In yogic traditions, your True Self is known as the Light of Pure Consciousness — the eternal awareness that exists underneath all your thoughts, emotions, and roles. It’s the part of you that can observe without judgment. It’s your essence.
This isn’t just philosophy — it’s deeply practical.
When we reconnect with this part of ourselves, we’re no longer ruled by trauma patterns, programming, or the fear of what others think. We stop outsourcing our power. We come home to our centre.
Trauma, triggers, and the distortion of truth
Trauma pulls us out of ourselves. It distorts our inner knowing. It clouds our intuition and shakes our nervous system into survival states.
In these moments, we often reach for things outside of us — validation, certainty, distraction — but they don’t hold the answer. The answer is always within.
To return to your Truth, you may need to explore the programming that shaped your identity — including the unconscious beliefs, memories, or relational dynamics that taught you who you “should” be.
Reclaiming your resonance
Spiritual healing is not just about connecting to the soul — it’s also about regulating your nervous system, making sense of your story, and cultivating practices that bring you back to your essence.
Tools like trauma-informed therapy, clinical hypnotherapy, and somatic work can support you to rewire old imprints and realign with your most authentic Self.
“This work is devotional.
To return to the Truth of who you are is a sacred act of healing.”
A closing reminder
The world will always have opinions. People will always project their version of reality. But no one else can walk your path or know your Truth.
You are your own guiding light.
AND only you know what the resonance that expands throughout the layers of yourself when the Truth hits.
This is what it is to remember and return.
Again and again.
