What action plan can you mark in your calendar to begin your self-connection work? An hour aside to search for a therapist? Time to attend a meditation class? The choice is yours. If there’s one thing you can do to shift the needle in your life to move you in leaps and bounds toward the best version of you, then it’s doing work around self-connection. It is with this new understanding of myself that I’ve been able to connect better with others. It has been in sitting in silence and listening to myself, feeling every micro-movement of my body in relation to a thought that I’m having, leaning into the discomfort of the pain this stillness may yield that I’ve come to understand myself better. The lesson I learnt: You can’t run away from yourself. I delayed so much of the work with the relationship with myself for years by being busy, by filling my days to the brim so as not to have to sit with myself. You can do this through meditation, therapy, exercise, silence, breathwork, and your own spiritual practice. You can grow your self-connection at any time – it’s never too late. You need great self-connection to connect well with others – it’s actually the baseline for emotional intelligence. Self-connection is ‘the process of being in touch with the worthiness and wholeness of your Self regardless of the form of experience you are having.’
