Hello, and welcome to the Borealis experience. I'm
Unknown:your host Aurora, life coach and companion on this beautiful path
Unknown:called life. I hope you're doing well. And I'm very excited to
Unknown:Yeah, spend a couple moments with you. I just want to give
Unknown:you a fair warning that my head is all over the place right now.
Unknown:I was originally going to talk about your daily habits, the
Unknown:little habits that you engage in the little habits that compound
Unknown:that make up the you, your identity, your life the way you
Unknown:think. Then I came across a beautiful podcast the other day
Unknown:where they talked about the Moxie inner strength, the strong
Unknown:passion of existing, the strong passion of feeling alive. And
Unknown:then I came across the topic of discipline. What is your
Unknown:relationship with discipline? Is it kind of a swear word? Do you
Unknown:cringe when you hear that word? Or do you have very positive
Unknown:association associations with discipline? The word or the
Unknown:meaning. So as you can see it as three very loaded important
Unknown:topics that are very, yeah. Interesting to talk about and
Unknown:interesting to explore what do people associate with those
Unknown:three topics and what resonates the most. And for today, I
Unknown:decided to talk about your inner strength. I feel called to that
Unknown:topic today. And I will for sure address the other two topics
Unknown:here in coming episodes. It is with great curiosity that I
Unknown:approached this topic because inner strength can look pretty
Unknown:differently when it comes to Yeah, people from all kinds of
Unknown:situations like all walks of life, they can feel a different
Unknown:degree of inner strength. And whenever I'm passionate about a
Unknown:topic, the next time I go out the next time I interact with
Unknown:people, I will keep an eye on this. I will ask myself Okay,
Unknown:I'm going to talk to this personnel or I see this other
Unknown:person over there and what is their inner strength like? So
Unknown:what is inner strength? Is it confidence? Is it Yeah, a
Unknown:passion I willingness to be seen? Is it a person who knows
Unknown:his or her worth? Is it a person who is arrogant? Is that a
Unknown:person who is kind of elbow II and super competitive? How do
Unknown:you imagine would it feel to be in the presence of a person who
Unknown:has inner strength? Would it feel intimidating? Would it feel
Unknown:very good and warm and welcoming? Would you feel like
Unknown:you have to compete would it feel like something new that
Unknown:something that you've never experienced in your life? Take a
Unknown:moment now and try to describe for yourself. What means in a
Unknown:straight Thanks to you is it resilience is that love?
Unknown:Respect. When was the last time you felt very strong from the
Unknown:inside out? What were you doing? Who were you with
Unknown:I feel that inner strength can be seen in the eyes of a person.
Unknown:And maybe it's just me experiencing that way. it that
Unknown:way. I can also imagine feeling this in a person, because of the
Unknown:way they speak and choose their words.
Unknown:I feel I could sense inner strength in another person, and
Unknown:the way they're moving. The way they breathe and the vibe they
Unknown:give off, kind of assertive and clear. But at the same time,
Unknown:warmth and great empathy
Unknown:I can also imagine a person with inner strength will influence
Unknown:other people around him or her think a person with inner
Unknown:strength will deal with less bullshit, less pain, less
Unknown:suffering. Because they know how to set clear boundaries with
Unknown:their body language. They know how to communicate clearly to
Unknown:people what and who they are. When and where. All this to say
Unknown:they have a clear image, a clearer sense of self. And
Unknown:they're not trying to fulfill an image. They just feel that
Unknown:picture out. They have a very strong sense of who they are,
Unknown:what they want in life. Now if you're listening to this
Unknown:episode, and right now you don't really know what you want in
Unknown:life, you don't really know what your calling and your purposes,
Unknown:and you don't really quite figure out yet who you are.
Unknown:Don't despair, my friend. This is what we are here for. This is
Unknown:what we exploring. This is part of the human experience. And we
Unknown:can learn to get closer and closer and closer to that inner
Unknown:strength that I'm trying to describe today. The beautiful
Unknown:episode that I have listened to the other day was a story from
Unknown:years ago, I think 2013 And it was a woman telling her story
Unknown:about how she went home after a yoga lesson one night and a man
Unknown:then appeared behind her and started talking and she was
Unknown:listening to something on her phone. She had her earbuds and
Unknown:just noticed that yeah, there was somebody walking behind her
Unknown:and she just turned around, saw him and then kept walking didn't
Unknown:really react. And two, three more times he started talking to
Unknown:her and she just kept walking and the fourth time he grabbed
Unknown:her shoulder and turned her around. And it's only then that
Unknown:she saw that he had a gun and he wanted her phone in her wallet
Unknown:and at that moment, and she realized that he had a gun She
Unknown:stared him dead in the eyes. And she said she could feel her
Unknown:whole body she could. She felt so alive in such a weird
Unknown:situation, she felt so alive and it came shining through her
Unknown:eyes. And this guy just kept talking, and she didn't really
Unknown:like couldn't really hear because she was like in a, in a
Unknown:trance. And then he turned around and left. And of course,
Unknown:he described way more vividly than I just did. But what I want
Unknown:to come down to is that her batteries were fully charged,
Unknown:she totally knew who she was. She totally knew how much she
Unknown:wants to be on this planet, how much she wants to be alive. And
Unknown:she didn't cave. She didn't melt. She didn't freak out.
Unknown:When he was standing there with his gun. She just stood there
Unknown:with her energy facing him. And it made him crawl away. And then
Unknown:she turned around and walked home, as if nothing ever
Unknown:happened. And it's only after that she realized what just
Unknown:happened.
Unknown:But if she had done a wrong movement if she had started to
Unknown:you know, ask questions, start a conversation. Cave that
Unknown:situation could have turned out really differently. So it has
Unknown:that Moxie that aliveness, that passion to exist. Where you can
Unknown:start, you can start to know that you are so unique. Is
Unknown:nobody like you on this planet earth and we want to see you
Unknown:shine. The people who don't want to see your shine are actually
Unknown:intimidated by you. We need you to find out who you are. We need
Unknown:you to find out what you're calling us your purposes. And
Unknown:then we want you to recklessly share it with the people. With
Unknown:all of us. Your inner strength is something that you need to
Unknown:nurture every day. There will be situations in your daily life
Unknown:where you feel self doubt where you are not very clear. Hey,
Unknown:that person just attacked me that person just judged me. Is
Unknown:it really about me? Or is it about them? Did I really make a
Unknown:mistake and have to adjust and reflect and change for the
Unknown:better? Or is it other people protecting their shit onto me?
Unknown:You see, inner strength is not only about shining your light
Unknown:and being confident and knowing who you are. It's also knowing
Unknown:the difference. Now you fucked up. Now, another person is
Unknown:projecting it, their pain onto you and you don't need to take
Unknown:that shit. I'm going to leave you with that. If you have any
Unknown:questions if you want to know more about it. I'm totally
Unknown:excited to do another episode about this topic. And I'm always
Unknown:Yeah, so passionate, so curious to know where you guys are
Unknown:listening from. Maybe you want to drop me a line. Maybe you
Unknown:want to connect with me on Facebook and let me know your
Unknown:thoughts. And yeah, I'm gonna go and enjoy a snow day today. It's
Unknown:really cold in Canada again. take really good care of
Unknown:yourself and be on the quest of your inner strength and then
Unknown:enjoy it, feel it protected.
Unknown:Let other people see it was lots of love and respect. I will be
Unknown:out there for you very soon again. Bye bye
