When you think about what is going on inside that kind heart of yours, what is really wanting to surface? Is it the fact that your needs are being forgotten? Needs are opportunities not taken. For whatever reason, you feel as though you don’t matter, but now it’s time to think about what you want now.
It’s so harmful to the heart, body and soul to leave your desires at the foot of your bed. Now you have a gift - the present moment. Many people don’t consider it a gift, but that’s why it is called the present.
By stopping ignoring your basic needs, you can shift your focus on the small things that you aren’t doing for yourself.
It can be hard getting to know yourself, but we all have the time to do so, and we all must.
Your needs have nothing to do with the ego, and everything to do with how your soul aligns with your values. What values you hold dear are the most important aspects of your character that you cannot allow to dwindle.
See the Light Your Heart Has For Your Needs
Your heart holds a great light to your needs. It does this because it wants to shine a light on everything you hope for and deserve. That won’t happen if darkness surrounds it. Instead, start seeing that light, and working with it in your spiritual practices.
Be The Change
When we neglect our basic needs, we fail to realize that it’s the maintenance of those things that keep us healthy.
Take time for introspection and start thinking about what has previously made you ignore parts of yourself this way. Is it money? Fear? Lack of self-worth? All these things can be spiritually manifested.
Stop Disconnecting from Your True Self
The mind and body are fiercely connected, so if one is out of alignment, the other too will suffer. If you notice you are dealing with aches, pains, tension or worries in your mind, relate them to the idea that you are not working toward your destined path. Drifting from it can lead to the feeling that you’re lost.
Your true self never really goes anywhere. The feeling that you have begun to walk in a new direction can sometimes make room for the displeasure of not arriving where you had hoped.
Solitude can be a direct cause of not giving yourself the kindness and compassion to be who you truly want to be, and to see your dreams as goals, rather than wishes meant to be forgotten.
Leave The Neglect Behind
You are chosen in life to go through a huge spiritual transformation. You need that energetic space to make your needs part of your daily routine of self-care.
The divine is always with you, ready to help you leave this neglect behind, and really give yourself the time and space to watch your needs become a thing of the past.
Take Risks
Life is sometimes about taking risks. Without the odd risk here and there, we wouldn’t be able to move forward. Spiritual shifts like this teach us that action can have positive consequences, rather than the negative we always assume.
Don’t be lonely in wishing your needs away, instead be happy and content that your heart has given what you really want - a glorious time to acknowledge that we must all choose ourselves sometimes.
Connection to Your Higher Being
Your higher being is always there to protect you. Most people ignore that, but you walk alongside your spiritual guides and angels every day, yet they are seldom called upon by you.
Be drawn to them, and the love and light they exude for you. They don’t want you ignoring your soul as it is the one thing that keeps you close to your divine light.
When the time comes when you are offered two choices ahead of you, don’t shut down the one that seems the scariest, simply because you don’t think you have needs like everybody else. Tune into your higher self and ask those who protect you to walk with you.
Don’t Let Doubts Break Your Spirit
When doubts creep in, they can really take over. You think you aren’t worthy of the time and love to heal and reflect. If your need is to start taking more care of yourself, listen to your heart and find ways to align your spiritual practice with what you need.
Doubts can be listened to, but then they must be reasoned with. Do not accept them as a base layer for declining all invites for paying attention to yourself.
Listen to your divine spirit and what it really wants from you. Your empathic heart wants to protect you, but it cannot do that by disallowing you the chance to do what you want in life.
Final Thoughts
Ignoring your basic needs is going to end up being those regrets you have tomorrow. Thinking about the regrets you have today, would they be fewer and lighter if you acted with courage in the past?
Trust yourself, trust your gut, and trust that sometimes, you must come first.
