Namaste!

It's Sahara Rose and welcome back to the highest self-podcast.

A place where you discuss what makes you your soul's highest involvement.

I am having such a beautiful end of the year, a jam packed year where I created so much.

My new book, Discover Your Dharma, Spoke, all around the country, created Rose Gold Goddesses,

lived my life, got married, moved all of the beautiful transformations that come with being a human.

And the end of the year is just a time to reflect, reflect on all that you created in this year and really in this decade.

It as we close out the 20 teams and we open up the portal to 2020, the decade of higher vision, your 2020 vision.

It's a powerful time to reflect and also to set up the foundation of what we want moving forward.

I'm a huge fan of rituals because it takes a little bit of boundary setting to honor the transitions in life.

You know, if we don't have these boundaries, these containers that I'm going to sit in circle, I'm going to do a meditation.

If we don't create these boundaries for ourselves, then life can throw us a lot of things and we can let life define us instead of us defining our lives.

And especially today, when we have more options than ever before, we go on social media and we're seeing millions of people living their lives in different ways in real time.

But we don't see the whole picture. It can make us extremely distracted and extremely confused and extremely out of our own centers.

And something that I've really noticed in myself and a lot of people is we only get the answers to the questions that we ask.

So our lives only expand at the rate to which we are asking questions.

When we ask bigger questions, we become a bigger person.

Most of us don't ask questions. Most of us were taught not to.

Raise your hand. Oh, no questions right now. Figure it out.

And what this did is it made us just think that life is something that is given to us, that we're handed our circumstances, we're handed our lives and we just have to figure out how we're going to best cope.

And that coping can come from overworking, overeating, overstressing, overmedicating, whatever your chosen drug is, overloving, oversharing.

And life has not meant to be something that we just cope with. Like it's not supposed to be this painful experience that life's tough, got a helmet, right?
