Confessions of a Recovering Spiritual Bypasser

When I first began exploring spirituality and expanded states of consciousness, I was so naive. As a college student, I misinterpreted my peak psychedelic experiences to mean that it was possible to live in a mystical bliss state all the time with no more struggle or discomfort. I would get so high on the delusion that all my limitations were imagined and I could manifest anything I wanted and become anything I set my mind to. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Wouldn’t that be nice if that were the mechanical truth of this human experience? Maybe. Actually, it would probably be pretty boring 😜

Even if I were to receive all I currently yearn for, all the things my mind thinks will bring me lasting peace and happiness, being human will not always be easy. While HD does eliminate a great deal of unecessary suffering, I will inevitably still experience heartbreak and disappointment, grief, jealousy, longing and rage. My physical body will continue to have all sorts of needs and limitations, and tending to these properly will take great discipline. Nasty old narratives I work so hard to disempower will continue to invite themselves back into my mind, and try to influence my behavior.

My clients tend to be brilliant, high-achieving individuals who are thriving in many realms of life. And naturally, they still have struggles. They still have vices, they have a hard time breaking free from unhealthy patterns, they wrestle with their faith and patience and they get triggered in their relationships. No matter how much they’ve accomplished, there are ways in which they still have a hard time accepting themselves as they are without trying to be something they’re not. Witnessing this time and time again has been deeply humbling.

HD is not a quick fix; it is immensely valuable knowledge about how your unique vehicle operates, that you can come back to time and time again amongst life’s endless challenges and curveballs. There is no final destination in Human Design, rather infinite potential regarding your ability to trust in your own inner authority, surrender to the life you’re meant to live, and enjoy the ride ♥️
