How A Four-Day Hike Across K’gari Created A System Reset

Upon coming back, inner-contemplation has brought up the importance of this system reset; it allowed me to evaluate life and to do things differently. For so many years I had gotten myself into a rhythm that I wanted change, yet wasn’t doing anything radically different to invoke that change. Sure, I was working on my goals daily, but I hadn’t opened myself up for differences. You know that old saying – when you keep doing the same thing, you keep getting the same result.

In the last two weeks, I wouldn’t say that my life has radically changed, but I have set new intentions. I have opened it up to the universe to attract new friends on a higher frequency. The universe has responded, sending a few new connections my way – one in the most unexpected of ways.

I have dyed my hair (not radically, but I can tell), finally booked in for the tattoo I’ve been talking about and have connected with the family in a much more present way. I have jumped at opportunities to go out and play. We went on a family camping trip with our dear, dear friends. My husband and I went on a “date-overnight-hike” while my parents looked after the kids. Each morning I do my nature and dance meditation. I’ve started running and when I finish the run, I strip off and jump in the water for a freezing swim. In short, I am feeling more alive than I have in years and years. My brother came to stay, and we talked in the most free and real way that I can ever remember.

There hasn’t been any chasmic shifts. I haven’t been struck by lightning. I haven’t landed a million-dollar client. I am still in my normal employment. While on the surface it may look like nothing has changed, under the surface – everything has changed. Everything. And I know this is only the beginning.
