Hello, hello, and welcome to the Borealis

Unknown:

experience. I'm your host Aurora. And I'm so happy to be

Unknown:

spending some time with you today.

Unknown:

I hope you're doing well, I hope you feel good and safe. And just

Unknown:

at ease. I know there's lots going on in the world right now.

Unknown:

And I somehow, yeah, hope that you're not affected by it. I

Unknown:

just came home from a walk forest, and feel very good in my

Unknown:

body, it's always good to go for walks and to be close to trees

Unknown:

and exposed to a little bit of wind and to see mountains and

Unknown:

trees change. Scenery really helps in changing perspectives.

Unknown:

I invite you to leave a review for the podcast, by the way, if

Unknown:

you like this podcast, because it helps a lot to have new

Unknown:

people find this podcast. And there's also a little button in

Unknown:

the show notes to buy me a coffee, of course, all the money

Unknown:

that I would receive from you, I invest back into my podcast, and

Unknown:

my years of experience, my physical location now where you

Unknown:

can meet with me for coaching or for yoga, and also relaxation

Unknown:

classes. And yeah, for you to be sure that the money is in a safe

Unknown:

space. And I'm will make sure that we will not get any

Unknown:

advertisement or sponsors onto this show. So that you can enjoy

Unknown:

this podcast without having to skip out on annoying

Unknown:

advertisement. I want to make sure that it stays that way and

Unknown:

sustainable. So today I want to talk about commitment,

Unknown:

commitment to yourself commitment to your journey. I'm

Unknown:

pretty sure that we all know what commitment means I haven't

Unknown:

looked at every key Paideia definition although I could do

Unknown:

that quickly. Now one second. Now. So what I found here is

Unknown:

commitment, The state or quality of being dedicated to a cause

Unknown:

activity, or a person. Isn't that beautiful? So dedication,

Unknown:

devotion, loyalty, I would also add faithfulness, fidelity. How

Unknown:

about focus is what I want to talk about today. Because I

Unknown:

noticed whenever I go into deep, dark phases where I feel stuck

Unknown:

and unhappy with where I'm at, or just don't know why I feel

Unknown:

down and low, I noticed that it also has to do with my

Unknown:

commitments so that I let my commitments slide. So to see,

Unknown:

the more I'm committed to my little morning rituals, my

Unknown:

evening rituals, consistent sleep, consistent, eating,

Unknown:

consistent, exercising, consistent nurturing of my

Unknown:

friendships, the better I feel. And this is why I want to share

Unknown:

this with you so urgently because I have so many people

Unknown:

messaging me right now that they feel out of place, they feel

Unknown:

uncertain, they feel anxious about the future. And I can

Unknown:

totally relate to that and what helps me is to be committed to a

Unknown:

cause to my life to my relationships. And at this

Unknown:

point, I also want to say if you are single or if you are in a

Unknown:

place of uncertainty in a relationship. I want you to

Unknown:

become committed to that. So let's say you are single but you

Unknown:

are not happy with that state is Then I want you to commit to a

Unknown:

journey that will involve all the work and exercises and

Unknown:

unraveling and untangling from stuff. So that you can meet a

Unknown:

partner in the future. That is a good suitor. If you are singer

Unknown:

and you are happy, I want you to commit to all the activities to

Unknown:

your friendships, to maybe it is freedom, traveling, self care,

Unknown:

and really commit to that. But if you are single, and you are

Unknown:

not happy, me, as an outsider, me as a caring member of your

Unknown:

community, I want to see that you are taking steps to reveal

Unknown:

and free yourself from stuff that is not serving you anymore,

Unknown:

because you're not single, just, you know, because people don't

Unknown:

like you, I feel if you're listening to this show, you

Unknown:

might be single and unhappy. Because you don't know yourself,

Unknown:

you're not setting boundaries with yourself maybe, or you

Unknown:

don't know what you're made of. You don't know what partner

Unknown:

would be compatible with or to you, which goes back to you

Unknown:

don't know yourself enough. And then you're just tumbling

Unknown:

around, wobbling around. And life is too short, to not be

Unknown:

committed to your journey. And I'm going to say it again, it

Unknown:

doesn't matter if you like your path or your journey, where

Unknown:

you're at right now or not. And especially if you don't like

Unknown:

your path, if it is uncomfortable, I need you to

Unknown:

commit to find a way to understand why you are at where

Unknown:

you're at, and where you want to go to become a Digilent.

Unknown:

Detective, on who you are. And then to make decisions based on

Unknown:

you knowing who you are. And you'll get a way different

Unknown:

outcome than if you keep stumbling around in life,

Unknown:

wasting energy and time, and maybe even burden friends and

Unknown:

family with the same ongoing problems with the same broken

Unknown:

tape. On and on and on. Right. And I know this is a little bit

Unknown:

of a tough love episode today. I'm glad I can label my episode

Unknown:

explicitly. So that you know from the get go that yeah, it's

Unknown:

not for the soft spoken. Here, we want to get to the nitty

Unknown:

gritty. And we want to know that if you are on a path that

Unknown:

doesn't feel good. How you can get out of it gracefully. And

Unknown:

with emotional intelligence, and dedication to live a life that

Unknown:

is true to your self. Life is short, my dear. And I don't want

Unknown:

you to lay on your deathbed one day. And think about all the

Unknown:

stuff that you haven't done all the experiences that you didn't

Unknown:

have, because you were too shy and too scared. That's not what

Unknown:

we want to do. On our last day here on Earth. We want to

Unknown:

recount memories with big joy and big sorrow. And we want to I

Unknown:

think we all want a juicy life. But right now, especially after

Unknown:

COVID after having to isolate and you know, stay apart from

Unknown:

each other. I feel that a lot of us struggle to get back out

Unknown:

there. And to know like what feels good and what doesn't and

Unknown:

to find out okay, who do we want to hang out with and who do we

Unknown:

not want to hang out with? But there's a lot of shyness out

Unknown:

there. And people are very reserved when it comes to

Unknown:

meeting new people. And it's harming us. We are herd animals

Unknown:

and we need each other we need to feel a community around us

Unknown:

beyond close friends and family. And that is something that will

Unknown:

not be good for our mental and emotional health.

Unknown:

If it continues like that we need to learn to be curious

Unknown:

again, to be open and to not be driven by fear, but by

Unknown:

courageous, open hearted love, where we are consciously

Unknown:

extending our comfort zone. But at the same time we know it is

Unknown:

not dangerous, it is safe adventure. And we can check out

Unknown:

and set boundaries at any moment in time. So, I will leave you

Unknown:

with that and hope that I somehow hit home that it

Unknown:

resonates with you. I want to make sure that I deliver what

Unknown:

you need and want when it comes to emotional and mental health.

Unknown:

So never hold back from shooting me. topic requests. If you have

Unknown:

questions, shoot me a message on Facebook or Instagram, Aurora

Unknown:

Eggert or Aurora coaching on Instagram. And I'm always happy

Unknown:

to to answer questions and to deliver episodes to your needs.

Unknown:

Yeah, I'll leave you for now and we'll be out there very soon

Unknown:
