Hi Reader,, I’d like to introduce you to a concept that has profoundly shaped my coaching and healing journey: the Continuum of Awareness©️. This spectrum describes the journey from being completely bewildered by our health struggles to mastering complete harmony between mind, body, and spirit. I currently see myself at Level 8 – Living in Alignment, where I’ve built a strong connection between my body and mind. I can often identify when my symptoms are signaling a need for action, but I still have moments where stress sneaks up on me. My body still reminds me (through migraines or muscle tension) when I need to adjust. I’m deeply grateful for how far I’ve come, and I’m excited to keep growing toward Level 10. Now, I want to invite you to take a moment and reflect: Where do you think you are on the continuum? Here’s a quick overview of the levels: 1️⃣ Completely Bewildered: Lost and confused by symptoms with no idea why they’re happening. 2️⃣ Awareness of Struggle: Beginning to suspect a connection between stress and health. 3️⃣ Curiosity Sparked: Wondering if past trauma or life events could be affecting your health. 4️⃣ Patterns Emerging: Noticing clear links between emotions and physical symptoms. 5️⃣ Actively Learning: Educating yourself about the mind-body connection but struggling to apply it consistently. 6️⃣ Aware but Limited: Understanding the connection but held back by recurring stress or trauma. 7️⃣ Gaining Mastery: Managing symptoms well but occasionally catching triggers too late. 8️⃣ Living in Alignment: Intuitive and responsive but still experiencing occasional symptoms. 9️⃣ Proactive and Symptom-Free: Using subtle signals to prevent symptoms, guided by deep connection to self and spirituality. 🔟 Master of Self: Complete harmony with mind, body, and spirit—living in alignment with divine wisdom.
If you feel comfortable, tell us why you chose the number you did. This space is safe and judgment-free, so feel free to reflect and explore openly in the chat linked under the lesson The beauty of this journey is that no matter where you are, there’s always room for growth and healing. Together, we can help each other move closer to Level 10. I can’t wait to hear your reflections. Let’s grow together! With love, DrLinJo She Heals: Unearthing the Root, Empowered by Intuition |
