"Along with the quests I started a steady process of awakening"

The arrival of my twin children shattered everything in my life… from personal fulfillment, to family life, social life, work, marriage, etc. That was a strong shock and I could have finally realized that something’s not ok, but I didn’t. Was not there yet. I’ve had other tries to wake up in the past - a book I’d read, a message I’d hear, an advice I’d receive - but it’d never last, I’d submerge to my old unconscious me rather quickly. Was not there yet.

Then in August 2019 I came across Mindvalley and I just knew that this time it’ll be different. Along with the quests I started a steady process of awakening and consciousness. Till then I was kind of living in a trance, letting my life in the hands of luck and hazard. Beautiful things happened to me - I must be lucky I guess - but one thing was certain, it didn’t make me happy! The MV quests and the exchange in these beautiful tribes brought me astonishingly quickly down from my clouds. I’ve got determined to create the life I dream to live and to reach my ultimate purpose… to be happy!

Parenting is my biggest source of guilt and frustration and when I got wind of the Conscious Parenting Quest, I signed up immediately. And while waiting for the start, it came to my mind one crucial aspect…. in this awakening and consciousness process I was picturing myself alone. All I was visualizing … was myself and the kids. My husband got out of the picture. Our marriage was drowning and we were both letting it to. For no particular reason. We just had our unsettled fears, insecurities, frustrations, unrealized dreams… and didn’t bother to get out of our comfort zone and face them.

So I’ve decided to make the first move and be more open to my husband, to let him know of the consciousness process I started. Now I know, also thanks to MV, that a marriage doesn’t work coz’ of luck, it works when we make it work.

It’s not an easy task I must say, as my husband inherited a huge negativity from his mother. But since he shares the same parenting frustrations as me, the ideal opportunity was to start of course with Conscious Parenting Quest. I remember like it was yesterday, when I introduced Dr. Shefali’s course….me sitting in a corner of the couch, he in another. The first lesson was really awkward, the second less. And from the third lesson, he just loved it! It opened the door and we are doing the Quest together!! It was a huge step taken in 2019 and I’m really happy about it!!!

But let’s be frank, as much as I’d love it…it’s not as easy as I’d imagine! My husband’s quite negative and there’ve been ups and downs since then. But this time is different. Coz’ now I’m ready to take up the challenge and get out of my comfort zone.
