The understanding of our identity is foundational to our level of consciousness and therefore how we create our reality. Think of identity as the bottom layer of a pyramid, it is the basis of where our thoughts, beliefs and ideas about what is true stem from.
- A new level of awareness and consciousness
- A new way of being
- A new experience of more powerful creation
- More love, more peace and more freedom
Where does our identity come from?
Is Identity a Choice?
Why is identity important in manifesting?
Your reality is a reflection of what you believe, about everything, including yourself. What you believe about yourself ie. your identity will be reflected to you in everything around you.
The Layers of Identity
As my awareness expanded, I was able to see this deeper layer of my identity. And only then could I see how so many of my past actions, decisions and choices–especially in relationships came from my identity of not being good enough.
It manifested as needing others’ acceptance, love and approval. Changing myself to fit, to belong. But it never works for long because our soul is always pulling us towards authentic self expression and anything other than that will ultimately manifest as depression or struggle on the outside.
When we deny our authentic nature of being, we create disharmony in our body, our mind, our being and ultimately our life. And this is when I started to learn about the layers of our identity.
Most people accept that our identity is fact and unchangeable. I view it differently. There are two different layers we can approach our identity from.
Who we THINK we are
Who we REALLY are
Creating a Balanced Identity
I was introduced to the concept of our non-physical perspective and accepted pretty early on that I do have a soul, it is what felt true for me. I really believed the soul part of me was the only important part of my identity. And this served me for a while, until I lived enough life and came up against all the limitations of my human perspective.
I’ve always known that my strong belief in my soul self is what allowed me to move more easily through the human challenges I faced. This still feels true. To me the most powerful identity comes from being grounded in my non-physical truth and consciously choosing my physical truth.
Like a Tree...
As if the underground roots of a tree represent my soul or non-physical Truth and the branches of the tree would represent my human or physical truth. The awareness of my True rooted identity, allows me to feel safe and steady, keeping me grounded in something eternal, so that I feel free to express my temporary human branches in all the different ways.
We are so much more than what we can see on the surface and consciously acknowledging both layers of our identity allows us to stand solidly rooted in who we are and free to explore the human experience.
