What does it mean to show up?

So we are supposed to "show up and do the work," right?

Well, what does that actually mean?

I'll let you in on a little secret... this is often misconstrued, and we end up fighting against ourselves because we think showing up means one thing, when really that can cause resistance, create energy leaks and prevent us from building momentum and energy.

When we truly show up, and we'll explore what this means, it is the ultimate act of self love.

Loving yourself is not based in emotion. It's not a feeling or an idea or a belief. 

It's continual, dedicated action. 

It's the process of embodiment. 

Our life is constantly asking us for love and for embodiment, and we are usually trying to escape it. This is pushed by much of our external noise. 

"I can't deal with this right now"  

Perhaps that is exactly what you need to deal with.
