Faith in yourself

QUESTION: Masters I wonder why I am always running away from things relating to work. I am a part time hypnotherapist and people come for past life therapy. I also need another form of income so I also work in main stream healthcare. I find that I seem to meet clients and staff who have the same beliefs as me and thus discussions arise around soul journeys and reincarnation and past lives. I feel that this supports others spiritual beliefs. I have a fear internally that some managers see this as being outside professional boundaries. I feel I want to run but this is also who I am. I don’t want to hide but feel pressured to conform. Why is this a recurring theme? ~Debbie, UK

ANSWER:  Every soul’s reason for coming to Earth is to recognize who they are and why they are here. You choose to help with this by having life lessons dealing with self-doubt, confidence issues, lack of acceptance with an overall need for constant validation. Secondary to these, you are searching for your passion in life.

You are very energetic and souls “feel” your strength whenever they are near. This draws them to you to learn what wisdom you have already gathered about this Earth existence. This is the reason those who are searching along the spiritual path come to you wherever you are.

It is true that not all people are ready to explore their nonphysical attributes. You worry this will jeopardize your job within the professional boundaries of the very ego-based physical community. No one will criticize your beliefs as long as they do not interfere with the performance of your employment.

You are projecting onto others the fears you have of discovery. You have not totally accepted all the wisdom behind the knowledge you possess. Your answer to this dilemma is to run away and not be in a position to share your spiritual awareness. This is your right, but it goes against your sense as a teacher and guide.

You need to decide what you want to accept about yourself. Your understanding is spot on and you instinctively know how to pass it on to others. A conversation with co-workers that does not interrupt your work is not against any work policy. Examine what you are giving to those who come to you, and see the benefits you provide.

Do you wish to identify yourself in this fashion? Then use this to validate the great job you are doing. Stop running away because you think you will be reprimanded, and accept that you are fulfilling a desire you came with. Love that you have found a type of passion that serves so many.
