I recently had a dream that I was driving a car from the back seat.
No – I wasn’t back seat driving in the usual sense. There was no one else in the car.
Odd in the usual way of dreams. How can I drive from the back seat? I can’t see very well. Can’t control the vehicle very well either. I sensed I was going downhill. When I stopped I didn’t know where I was.
Whoa! I would rather take the wheel and drive from the driver’s seat.
Perhaps the dream represents my life. Does the driver in the back seat represent my subconscious? And have I been living on autopilot?
I admit to that.
Truthfully, I was quite comfy in the back seat when my husband was living, but now I’m alone and it’s time for me to take the wheel.
I have dealt with my husband’s illness, death and estate. I’ve built a condo and moved twice.
I also handled a number of other matters. Lots of support and Belief Re-patterning have been key to navigating that part of life.
Now that part of my journey is mostly done. My foundation is built.
Is this how I want my life to be on autopilot– driving from the backseat? Umm no. I’m now ready to move on to the next possibilities.
Now I see myself at the wheel – and my subconscious still there doing her job.
Now I put energy into future possibilities.
I am grateful to my subconscious for keeping me safe. It did great work in keeping me alive!
I forgive myself for believing I had to stay in the back seat and live in the past.
I forgive myself for believing I didn’t know how to move forward.
I recognize that the subconscious can only run on what it already knows. It needs the conscious to engage in the front seat driving into the future with freedom and independence.
I give myself permission to balance the conscious and the subconscious
I choose for my conscious mind to be in the front seat engaging in the future. And the subconscious remains steady in the back seat supporting with it’s know how.
I consciously choose freedom and independence for my future.
Today I will journal about places I would like to travel to in the near future.
I already engaged my conscious when I planned and chose finishes and furnishings I liked for my new condo. That is having freedom and independence!
I am consciously moving forward with freedom and independence, grateful for the support of my subconscious.
If you’ve found yourself in the back seat let’s chat and support you in moving forward!
