Living in Alignment With your Values

Today during a session with a client, I started to think about values. Then I started to read my new book called “The Source” by Dr Tara Swart…which talks a lot about the notion of values within the context of the law of attraction. So, I started thinking even more about this.

What are values? To me, values are what make us tick. They determine our priorities and they are, deep down, the measures you use to tell you if your life is turning out the way you want it to.

Our values are intrinsically linked to the core of who we are…our truest self. For instance, a few of my most important values include growth, connection and authenticity. These values are what make me tick, and a lot of what I want to manifest into my life, is aligned with these three concepts. I want a relationship that is based on growth, connection and authenticity, and I want to work in a profession that is aligned with these concepts also.

The fact that my goals, desires and direction in life are aligned with these values, means that it is much more likely that the universe will conspire to bring these things about because the universe wants us to achieve our full potential and it wants us to fulfill our destiny #theuniverselistens.

Values are very important, when it comes to the goals and direction we take in life. It is key to remember that your intentions and focus are at their strongest, when they align with our deepest values and truest self. Manifestation isn’t at all about purchasing that expensive car or the designer clothes. It is much more about attracting things into your life that make you feel how you want to feel, rather than simply obtaining ego-centric, material items.

If you don’t know what your values are, its time to stop, listen and take stock. Listen to your heart and listen to your gut, not just your rational mind. Because if your actions, goals and intentions aren’t aligned with your values, you will eventually feel a sense of dissatisfaction and anguish… Because there is a disconnect between your body and mind. Once we are able to integrate our body (heart, soul and intuition) and mind (ego), our motivation and energy will align in a powerful way. And with our goals and behaviour aligned with our deepest self, we are primed for success.

Now I have realised how important it is to make sure that what I want to attract into my life, is aligned with my values and true self, I am taking stock of all my values and making sure that everything I wish to attract into my life, is aligned with them.

Aside from growth, connection and authenticity, I value:

• fun
• love
• courage
• passion
• hope and gratitude
• happiness
• compassion
• service

What are your values? Are you living them? Are the decisions that you make within your life reflective of them? Are your goals and desires aligned with them? Or are you out of alignment? You will know you are out of alignment if you feel a sense of disharmony deep within yourself and a sense of disconnect between your body (intuition, soul and heart) and mind (ego).

What changes can you make within your life that will move you more into alignment? When setting goals or intentions, or when setting a vision for the future, it should fill your heart with desire, and should make you feel excited and intrinsically motivated.

I guarantee that as soon as you start living in alignment with your values, you will start to feel a greater sense of well-being, and fulfillment. And isn’t that worth it?
