My path to make contact with the esoteric and Universal Medicine was kicked off by an incident. I fell and badly broke my left hip. Up to this point I had been doing what the world expected of me (to me now, that felt like going through the motions of living). I had been suffering hay fever and sinus problems for more than 20 years.
Previously, as a teenager I had needed to have my tonsils removed. I was overweight and showing early signs of a heart attack-in-waiting… I am sure I was heading for cancer as well – if the heart attack did not kill me first.
So when I was 36 I had this fall which left me immobile for 3 months. My hip was fractured, I had scarring on my lung and bruising on my heart. While I was reflecting on this in hospital, I realised that I had not been listening to my body and the messages it was trying to give me. I resolved to do so from now on.
From a temporal point of view, this resolve (alignment to my soul) set me off on a disastrous path. I lost 3 good relationships and much of my assets (worldly). However, I have through this journey found who I am, and to me now that is all that really matters. Looking back, I realised I would lose relationships if I did not express as me in them. I had taken on an adage to be what I thought others wanted me to be.
Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are? It is so lovely to be confidently expressing now as me.
I was now seeing much of the world and the way I was, as it was. At one stage my spectacle prescription improved back 5 years as I started seeing in-truth how my relationship was. The optometrist agreed that my sight had improved, but did not have an understanding of what I was proposing. I realised that our world was full of paradoxes about how things are. All our worldly truths I could see as part truths hiding the real truth.
Then in 2004 I did a Heart Chakra 1 with Serge and Universal Medicine. It felt so good and familiar. I then kept doing what I was doing until 2009 when I came back to Universal Medicine.
You may wonder why I did not continue then, however looking back, I needed to see more things I wasn’t, which ultimately help define what and who I am. So in 2009 I returned to the esoteric associations and Universal Medicine with a knowing that most of the difficulties we face in this world would be lessened or removed if we felt empowered. I have personally found that empowerment… initially coming as a realisation that I can be me anywhere, anytime and with anyone. Then I found the keys within as to how to manifest this. It is a simple, very fulfilling way to live, to let go of the shackles of doing, and be.
Over the years I gave up dairy, alcohol, sugar and gluten as I saw how these substances dulled my body and my sensitivity. I can see that my sensitivity was compromised by these substances in a way that made it impossible to be aware of their influence, which adds to the arrogance of knowing that what we are doing is right. I now at 58 feel the best I have done health-wise since about age 16, and wellbeing-wise since I was about 5. I no longer get hay fever or sinus conditions. My circulation problem, highlighted after the broken hip, and the swelling in my legs is gone. My propensity for sunspots on my skin has diminished and I have watched areas heal one at a time. I sleep well every night. I never get caught up in reactions to events and what people say and do. The list goes on and on.
So to say Serge and Universal Medicine have done it for me would be wrong. What I have found from being an esoteric student is a rebuilding of my confidence in my feelings, to be now at a point where I trust them and my feeling of the energies, implicitly. Also I have gained a confidence in my feelings and their messages.
Knowing who we are is a beautiful thing and a development that never ends. Expressing what feels true has been a big step for me in this, to say what I feel and what needs to be said.
“Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are?” Kim I do really love this question as it offers an honesty to realize where someone truly is at. With this honesty we can choose – perhaps for the first time in life – where to go.
Absolutely yes Mary ! It is as simple as that. Hence, we know that confidence is not the issue, but what is: that we don’t know who we are. So this blog reveals what we are capable of.
Nothing is more beautiful than recognizing the beauty and intelligence that you are — that is forever expanding and universal. No intellect is needed for that, hence the current intelligence doesnt do it for us, as it is knowlegde more than truth.
The word ‘incident’ comes from the Latin incidentem (nominative incidens), present participle of incidere “to find the way.” There are no incidents, but different ways to find The Way.
This is lovely Kim ” My journey home ” , just so simple re-trurning to expression of who you are.
“Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are?” What a truism this is and is the struggle of the vast majority of people, myself included. Discovering who I am is at times a painful and challenging time as one acknowledges the illusions one has been living in and the consequences of those choices. However, the reward of re-connecting to oneself is worth everything.
Thank you for sharing your personal journey Kim, for through it you make many great and inspiring comments. The following particularly stands out, “I have personally found that empowerment… initially coming as a realisation that I can be me anywhere, anytime and with anyone. Then I found the keys within as to how to manifest this. It is a simple, very fulfilling way to live, to let go of the shackles of doing, and be.”
“Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are?” If we don’t know who we are true confidence is impossible. There is the not-true confidence that comes from a bolstering of oneself, but it’s not really confidence at all, it’s more of a front. When we do know who we are, there is a steadiness that comes from that. We walk knowing who we are.
Keeping up with the societal expectations amongst the frantic pace of today’s world is exhausting and often at the expense of our own health and wellbeing – as you so beautifully shared Kim it is really important to listen to the wisdom of our bodies.
Amazing how our body actually stops us and gives us an opportunity to take stock, and take a good look at ourselves and the choices we have been making. Taking responsibility for ourselves and our choices, is the beginning of making change to our life and no longer accepting life as it is, but making different choices that start to make a huge difference to our wellbeing and how we feel about life too.
Hay fever is becoming more common and I definitely feel this can be easily cured by looking at what we are choosing to eat and how we are choosing to live (lifestyle choices). Your blog is a beautiful example of this and how we can transform our health from having potential high risk illness and disease to having great health. Thank you Kim.
What I find amazing Kim is that when I read that you were “overweight and showing early signs of a heart attack-in-waiting… I am sure I was heading for cancer as well” I was sure you must have been an ‘older’ gentleman. So, I got quite a surprise to see in the next line that you were only 36! But I am sure that you were not the only one of your age who was suffering with the same conditions. How wonderfully health-changing it was that you connected with Universal Medicine, and of course, life-changing as well. It’s amazing what can happen when you find your way ‘home’.
So many people seem to believe it is right to be what others want them to be, to please others, rather than be who we truly are. Where does this belief come from that we are ‘not ok’ just as we are and instead should twist and contort ourselves to be pleasers of others? Like Kim, I have found my way back to my true self and it is a blessing, both for me and for those around me. It reflects the same to them and gives them ‘permission’ – not that they need my permission – to be who they are too.
“Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are? It is so lovely to be confidently expressing now as me.” A beautifully honest summation I too have felt and when you are playing a role or living up to a picture of who you think you are everything feels false and you never really relax because you are always playing a role or changing it depending on who you are with. When you re-connect to the essence of who you are within every movement, expression and word spoken is authentic and more confident because it is a full expression of who you are from within. That is pretty cool to feel and the quality felt from the expression is then pure gold. Thank you for sharing, as this blog is just that.
I agree Kelly, it is exquisite when we express from our essence but when we are not, then complication, misunderstanding and drama can easily erupt.
Kim you have beautifully summed up how it is ‘us’ that make the change, what we are offered through Universal Medicine is a living example of how we can choose to live if this change is taken.
If you aren’t yourself in a relationship, then you aren’t you, so the person you are with never gets to know you, and neither do you. What a travesty that is for both parties, for being who we are with one another is a great gift.
Kim to say you feel better now at 58 than when you were a child is a living miracle to me – that is the beauty and power of the Esoteric Modalities to bring true healing and a deeper understanding to the body and to the whole of life.
To be what others wish one to be, or to be ‘oneself’ that is not really oneself are two traps that only lead nowhere and which stop us from going to the only place from which you can really walk forward in life.
This is what it is all about, “rebuilding” who we truly are and in fact have always been but have become lost many times over in the process. We have this belief to achieve or need to be something and yet all along everything is with us, within us and remains untapped while we chase glory. When we start to return there is that feeling of knowing, wondering how you could have possibly missed it and the confirmation that you do know everything that is needed. This return is an ongoing living unfoldment, to go back over old ground walked from when you couldn’t see; redoing or re-imprinting all areas you have walked without the knowledge of who you actually are. It may seem like hard work when in fact it’s the only work worth doing as it rebuilds further that confidence in what you are already feeling.
“Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are? It is so lovely to be confidently expressing now as me.” I can relate to this sentence Kim, I had no confidence because I did not know me, because of not feeling me, my way was in the doing the continual doing to be something,which was very exhausting and very empty, it is such a joy now to come to know me, connect to the love I feel within and express me from that loving space.
Hi Kim this is a true testimony to Universal Medicine for all we have to do as students of life is listen to our body and connect to our essence and the healing begins.
I met you many years ago Kym but after you become a student of UM and what this blog made me realise is that you never know what anyone has come from.Even if we only brought attention to the physical changes you have made and the way you approach life, that in itself is remarkable. The importance of never judging another is what comes strong here, for we all have such different and interesting lives that make up who we are and what people now see.
The greatest life we can live is one where we are connected to our Soul, to who we are within, where we our lives are enriched beyond measure as we are guided the inner-light we know is true.
“Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are? It is so lovely to be confidently expressing now as me.”
This line rings absolute truth within me, as I feel the purpose to life is to return to knowing the truth of who we are. Knowing that is the first step, seeing where we are at now and accepting it is the next, making choices to be more honest is the third, and all of that is just the responsibility of expressing as who we really are.
“Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are?” This is a very powerful truth and in reconnecting to who you are allows you to know the beauty of the essence of everyone.
I love how you call it your journey home, it takes such a great humbleness to see that life might not be all that we pretend it to be and that there may be a different way to live.
Accidents and illnesses although mighty uncomfortable can actually be a blessing as when we are laid up and unable to live how we normally do it can expose what we need to change in our daily lives so we can make more supportive and wise choices that are far more caring for ourselves.
“What I have found from being an esoteric student is a rebuilding of my confidence in my feelings” and honoring them! Honoring my feelings and my awareness – not deny, avoid or numb them. For me, it is a journey back to my worth. To claim it back. And even become authority in it. Ha! Grace is back in town.
“Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are?”
This is such a great point Kim. How many of us strive to ‘be confident’ and try to dig deep to find this seemingly elusive inner confidence, only to go to pieces when the façade we have invested in falls away? Could it be simply because we are not living true to who we are and by virtue of this we subscribe to a whole series of set ideals, beliefs and images about who we are and how that should look like and so what we end up presenting to the world is akin to a cardboard cut-out version of us that cannot withstand a small gust of wind, let alone weather a mighty storm? By reclaiming our true self – the Soul – we regain what we thought we had lost, the keys to a kingdom divine and the permission to express it in all that we do. True confidence comes from living true to our essence and not falling for a reinterpretation, and thus vastly reduced version, of this.
What you have so honestly shared Kim made it very clear that all we need to do is to look inside of us and have a deeper relationship with ourselves. To look outside of us is just something what nullify our true confidence.
It seems to be so ‘101’ doesn’t it Kim, that we can honour the knowing that we have within – listen to, and build a relationship with what we feel, as a foundation-stone for life. And yet, we are not as a rule raised in confirmation of this – instead offered a plethora of others’ knowledge, how-to’s, and ways of living that we are meant to live by, keep up with even…
What you’ve shared here, in your own relationship with yourself, is therefore gold, for it is within all of us to rebuild our inner knowing that we may live in the fullness – and not diminishment – of all that we innately and naturally are.
“I can see that my sensitivity was compromised by these substances in a way that made it impossible to be aware of their influence, which adds to the arrogance of knowing that what we are doing is right.” Wise words and exact truth. Choosing to act in a way that is not true will cover up the way of seeing truth. Great to note and a simple fact.
The behaviour of doing to gain love is a big one to master. It can creep in sometimes without me realising it when I’m on my own and when I’m in the company of others but I am beginning to become aware of when I do fall into this trap especially when I’m with another who is evidently reflecting this way of being.
We are taught in school to just be confident, stand tall and be confident, but I never knew what that meant or even what that was. I also saw that once I had confidence I would be okay, I would speak up, I would not let people treat me badly and I would be able to make decisions with ease and do whatever I pleased. But that wasn’t it either, and just kept me in constant anxiety, because I wasn’t ticking any of these things. A confidence for me now comes with me honouring what I feel to do and following it through, listening to my body and staying with my body.
Discovering my confidence levels were directly related to the way I treated and honoured my body was ground-breaking for me, the more I took care of my body and claimed and expressed the truth, the more and more confident I felt. Who says confidence is something you’re either born with or without?
Or grows as we get older? I feel I was confident when I was born, quiet but confident but from the age of five my confidence began to slowly diminish as I began to give up on life. I became extremely introvert and shy and would blush every time someone would speak to me. My confidence is growing and I have seen a big change over the past 18 months as I express more and more what I feel to say.
Yeah great point, if anything our confidence diminishes as we grow up and lose more and more connection with our body. But not to say this cannot be rebuilt at any time we choose.
I love your explanation of rebuilding confidence in your own feelings. The turnaround in your health and quality of life is a confirmation that you are on track.
Realising that we will ‘loose’ a relationship if we start to express what we’re truly feeling or sensing we could say isn’t really a loss at all – because we’re letting go of a falseness, and if someone doesn’t want us in our truth then it’s more their loss than ours…
I agree losing something that isn’t true isn’t actually a loss, no matter how much we may consider it a temporal physical loss at the time. And absolutely – if someone doesn’t want us in our truth then it’s only our loss if we hold back.
Yes isn’t it strange how we can make things complicated when they can be so very simple. Great for us all to see that it’s possible to go the easy way, thanks Kim.
I loved what you have shared Kim, I can so relate to these words ” I have personally found that empowerment… initially coming as a realisation that I can be me anywhere, anytime and with anyone. ” that we are ok in claiming the love that we are and just be.
‘Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are?’ I can totally relate Kim as this is how I lived until I began to shed all the layers that were not me and to embrace and live who I truly was.
Serge Benahyon simply reflects and presents the way he lives and the rest is up to us. No pressure, no demands, no expectations. We can take it or leave it. For me, his reflection is inspirational and has support me to make many very loving changes in my life and continues to be so.
There is no greater treasure than to unearth who we truly are. No riches can compare to this light and this loveliness. It was there on the day we were born but gradually masked by all we have come to live in its place. Peeling off these false layers is a very liberating experience, for in it we give permission to ourselves to stop acting our way through life and just be who we were born to be, in all our true majesty.
Yes Kim, Serge and Universal Medicine do not ‘do it for’ anyone. It is very much the responsibility of each and every one of us to choose and be it for ourselves and it cannot be any other way.
‘Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are?’ I do Kim, for I used to live a life of fitting in with everyone simply because I did not know who I was … I loved reading your story of how you restored your confidence in your own feelings again.
Regaining our confidence in what we feel and expressing what we feel is such an important part of life – that’s super cool you have rebuilt your feeling abilities 🙂
This comment is key for me Kim “Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are?”
How wonderful Kim that you chose to turn your life around from one of disregard to one of self-care and trust within yourself and by doing so connecting back to your essence of love – back home – back to you. So many of us have been inspired to take responsibility for our choices and to make self-loving changes in our lives through the teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine benefiting not only ourselves but indeed everyone.
Coming back to this blog, and also reading through the comments, it is very obvious that your words: “Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are?” resonate strongly with many. So why is it that as adults we don’t have a clear sense of who we truly are, with that not knowing resulting in a raft of issues, including a lack of confidence, a lack of self worth, and possibly a seemingly endless search outside of us trying to find who we really are. This is where the presentations of Universal Medicine play such a huge role; offering insights into how there is another way to live, presenting simple tools to support us to reconnect to our true essence, and offering us such wonderful reflections of how life can be lived to its fullest.
‘Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are?’ Yes, Kim, I know this well. I spent a small fortune on self-help books and practitioners of all sorts of traditional and out-there therapies to fix that lack of confidence and to discover who I was. You could have knocked me down with a feather when Serge Benhayon shared upfront, you are all masters of life, you know it all. Well it is a work in progress but I now know that the more comfortable I am in my own skin, and the more I allow the real me to speak without fear or favour, the more confident I am to be more of me and the more stress free and flowing my life.
It’s true Kim, it’s very difficult to be confident when you don’t know yourself, for if you don’t know who you are, your potential has no foundations to blossom from.
There is nothing like a serious and significant health incident to awaken ourselves to the importance of listening to and appreciating the wisdom of our body and expose how we have been living that has not been so loving which in turn if the opportunity is embraced, blesses us with the opportunity for true change to be introduced into our daily lives.
What a great recipe for life these words you speak Kim: “to let go of the shackles of doing, and be”; and to be all that we are and bring that to the world is when change begins. Thank you for sharing your inspirational “journey home”.
I have come across several students of Universal Medicine recently who have had their eye sight improve due to the choices they are making to see and live the truth. I find these extraordinary medical miracles and yet they don’t stop just with sight… the healings that people have experienced from living the principles presented by UM are truly profound and a testimony to the true power of committing to a life where listening to your body is deeply honoured.
This really stood out for me Kim: “Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are?” We make the choice to leave ourselves at such a young age to fit in with what we think society expects of us – how can we then possibly know who we are? What Universal Medicine is showing is the way back to that connection to ourselves and to who we innately and divinely are.
“What I have found from being an esoteric student is a rebuilding of my confidence in my feelings, to be now at a point where I trust them and my feeling of the energies, implicitly. Also I have gained a confidence in my feelings and their messages.” I am moved by what you write here Kim in fact I have tears of joy in my eyes as I know for me too this has also been the case.
“I never get caught up in reactions…” – this is such a beautiful thing to claim. What a blessing for all around you. And that is the power I have, too. I can be that light for my family and friends, too. It’s worth to take those choices.
Very very beautiful Kim. I absolutely love what you share, especially the part about your ‘break’ from Universal Medicine. This shows that your choices have been all your own and you have rightly and beautifully claimed this in your article.
“Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are? It is so lovely to be confidently expressing now as me.” Thank you Kim, a lovely blog to read and be inspired by as I deepen my relationship with myself.
My journey home is an accurate assesment of what Universal Medicine is offering, modalities and livingness techniques that guide us back to our true essence
“Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are? It is so lovely to be confidently expressing now as me.” Beautiful Kim. Universal Medicine has supported so many of us to return to who we truly are.
Thank you Kim for sharing a great blog can relate to having no confidence and then realising that I can be me anywhere, any time, and with anyone, and that I am enough, not by the doing but by being me.
The journey continues.
Hallelujah, the coming home with Universal Medicine is a consistent experience that deepens and deepens and „home“ grows day to day.
Well said Rachel – I like the expression inner compass. With this compass we can’t get lost and life is showing us our way – our way to our home, where we belong to. And life is getting much easier instead of trying hard to get somewhere with our head.
It is interesting how we can all live with very different perceptions and understandings on life and basically not fully let ourselves understand another and where they are coming from. In essence the issues we have with understanding ourselves are no different to those we have with understanding others, the more we truly understand ourselves and our bodies the more we generally understand others and their ways of seeing and expressing in life.
This is a magic question: “Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are?”
I remember moments in time, not long ago, saying to myself: ‘it’s Ok, just be yourself’… and then not having a clue what that feels. It’s a hell of a lot more fun to yourself than anyone else!
Beautiful Kim, that you came to the work in your own way and in your own time. You did what felt right for you.
Deeply inspiring Kim, as it shows that we each have a choice in the life we lead, it is beautiful to feel how loving yourself and making choices that love and support you and your body has made such profound changes in your health and wellbeing. A true testament to you.
An inspiring article Kim. “…most of the difficulties we face this world would be lessened or removed if we felt empowered.” As you discovered, developing the confidence to trust what your body is telling you is very empowering.
Your story is deeply inspiring Kim, thank you for sharing your revelations and experiences. Love that your health has completely shifted to the point of your eye sight improving, this is so cool and proves that our bodies are really our best friends, if we choose to treat and honour what they have to say about how we are living.
‘I can see that my sensitivity was compromised by these substances in a way that made it impossible to be aware of their influence, which adds to the arrogance of knowing that what we are doing is right.’
This is a huge realisation Kim and one that helps me understand my choices in the past and to not judge others choices.
Thanks Kim for your sharing, starting to see the truth and having it reflected by improved vision, makes miracles a natural occurrence when we choose truth.
Thank you Kim for sharing your story. An awesome testimony of how Universal Medicine supported you to make different life choices and build a life full of vitality. Great sharing!
Thanks for your blog Kim. Having the confidence to truly express who we are is very empowering and expansive.
I wholeheartedly agree Peter, expressing all of who we really are, is indeed very powerful.
Thank you Kim for sharing – it feels so lovely when we can confirm the truth of life that we have found to be true in a practical way. As I begin to take responsibility for my health and the way that I live my life it becomes more wonderful and amazing – and like you I feel that life is more wonderful day by day as I let go of past behaviours that no longer serve. It is such a blessing to have a sense of the beauty of each passing day as I approach my 70’s and to not see this as the end of my life, but an ever evolving period of life that will become more expansive as I continue on my path of unfolding.
Well said Kim. Another brilliant confirmation and story of how Universal Medicine has supported many to build their confidence through listening to and accepting their inner feelings.
Thanks Kim for sharing the road you have traveled so far and the changes you have made within yourself.
Beautiful blog to read Kim. Great point you have made – Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are? That spoke volumes to me.
Thank you Kim. Its amazing that by attending presentations with Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon we can feel more confident and more empowered so that we can be who we are. Simple and straight forward.
It feels great Kim that you took your time to understand and develop your way back to your true self. The results speak for themselves, feeling fantastic at 58 is what so many people are wanting, yet lifestyles are causing enormous problems for people in all age brackets now. You are a living testimony that you can not only claim your health back, but improve it out of site by choosing to live a healthy truthful life. Great story, thank you for sharing.
Kim, that was a powerful blog. I could feel the change in you, and how claimed you have become. Your confidence is ozzing out of you as well your self-appreciation. Really lovely to read and feel, amazing job Kim.
It is magical when we take our own time to let go of things we are not, instead of following a paradigm which only lets us act from knowing. Great you were patient with yourself and let things unfold how it should be.
Kim your post is awesome, but your words here really made me stop and reflect on this: “Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are?” Wow, this is a slogan! I could ponder on all the times where I’ve felt under-confident, and can absolutely say that the knowing of myself on a deeper level has not been there – but more so on a superficial or compliant basis. And so yes absolutely, it is the knowing of who we are that gives us the confidence to be in this world. The more we get to know deeply ourselves we give ourselves a backbone of unshakeable confidence.
Coming home perfectly describes you journey. That is just what it feels like. That’s where we find our self worth. It’s just so awesome that your life can go from severe health and happiness concerns to enjoying life and feeling great.
I love the fact how you know a blog or a comment to pick and read that reflects things in your life at the moment, or brings realisation up. I have been avoiding listening to my body these past few days around food, and deliberately very clearly overriding and self sabotaging what my body feels. Again this morning I thought oh I’ll stop at the shops and buy … but now reading this blog and a comment that followed I can feel all I am doing is delaying and trying to avoid feeling how sensitive I am, what my body feels, and what is being offered by my Soul. Crazy really.
This is powerful Kim, thank you. Empowering of self is simple yet it is constant and never stops. I like the sentences you described it; “I have personally found that empowerment… initially coming as a realisation that I can be me anywhere, anytime and with anyone. Then I found the keys within as to how to manifest this. It is a simple, very fulfilling way to live, to let go of the shackles of doing, and be.”
Thank you Kim and Ryoko. I agree life is definitely about ‘the being’. Moving forward bring brings an integrity that allows us to connect to a deeper understanding of the truth about ‘to be’.
Have you ever thought about becoming a teacher / presenter, Kim?
Your experiences shine forth such a heavenly reflection of how love can be lived. And being with you is like getting instant messages from God.
Thanks Kim for sharing your journey to commit to you.
More and more people are diagnosed “hyper-sensible” and they see it as a burden. How upside-down is this! Isn’t being sensible and vulnerable the most beautiful blessing that life has on offer? The responsibility is to honour my sensibility.
What an awesome “Journey home ” Kim to start to feel and understand more about yourself and others through the process . I have also found confidence definitely relates to knowing yourself more and being in touch with your feelings and living in a way that honours them.
Kim, you are a great inspiration and role model for those who are caught up with the doingness of the world, and choosing to embrace the nurturing and stillness within you. Thank you!
Thank you Kim, it is absolutely amazing how medical conditions change in making different lifestyle choices. I wish there would be a book coming out, where people who met Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine share how much their health improved by simple day to day choices.
Thank you Kim. In your comment – ‘What I have found from being an esoteric student is a rebuilding of my confidence in my feelings’, encapsulated the truth for me. I have found out who I truly am and now live from that level of awareness. I now live a life that is about being true and loving in relationship, in my health and in the work that I do; anything that falls outside of that has/is falling away.
Your testimonial Kim is just beautiful. I love how you share that now ‘I can be me anywhere, anytime and with anyone. Then I found the keys within as to how to manifest this. It is a simple, very fulfilling way to live, to let go of the shackles of doing, and be’. Your words are a true gift to all. You committing to caring for you with the loving support of Universal Medicines modalities, workshops and presentations has clearly led to some amazing healing of your body and how you live each day. That is awesome.
Its amazing when we realise we only need to be ourselves (for we are everything), not the parts of ourselves that are different or trying to fit in with other people or other situations – that’s real confidence. Thank you Kim.
Thank you for sharing your inspiring way you changed your life Kim. I also lacked confidence in myself, until learning about conscious presence and being with myself from Universal Medicine. It has made a big difference and something I continue to work on as my confidence in myself grows.
Fantastic Kim! There was a phrase that made me stop “Do you realise how hard it is to be confident when you don’t know who you are? It is so lovely to be confidently expressing now as me.” These days, I happen to see lots of teenagers daily. It is so true that they have no clue who they are but they act as if they were certain about it and in total control. The truth is very different though.
If I just read about how your health and well-being I would definitely not think that you where 58. I would of said that you where 18.
Thank you Kim. I particularly relate to where you talk about building confidence in knowing who you are. I always lacked confidence as I was seeking for someone or something outside of me to provide the answers but with growing awareness of who I am, I am able to more confidently know the answers from within myself.
Absolutely Mary, I feel the same.
I just love these words “my journey home” as I can feel that’s where we are all going. As we work through life, letting go of lots of stuff, be it hardness, hurts, memories, reactions, sadness or other emotions, issues or configurations we have taken on, we are all going home.
That feeling of empowerment you have that came from the “..realization that I can be me anywhere, anytime and with anyone”, comes through very strongly in your article. Your transformation is very inspirational. Thanks Kim
Kim your transformation is inspiring. I could feel your confidence and joy through your words as you shared your journey, through the beautiful expression of who you now are. It is so true that when we connect to who we are our confidence in expressing and in making loving choices for ourselves develops into a natural way of being.
I’m constanly blown away when reading about people’s health coming into true vitality when they start to look at their life and how they are living it. It’s always inspiring.
It’s quite amazing to read the many things that changed in your body, and that this improvement in health came in such simple ways. I agree, Universal Medicine is very inspiring.
Kim, that was a very inspiring blog. It felt so powerful when reading, I could feel your strength and surety of who you stand as today. I loved the part about you starting to see the truth more clearly and your eyes improving. I have glasses and it’s something I’ve often thought about. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful piece Kim, I love how you’ve shared that it’s about coming back to feeling and trusting ourselves in those feelings, that’s key. And you make such an important point, it’s hard to be confident in ourselves if we don’t take the opportunity to truly know us, and to keep allowing ourselves to deepen that knowing – it makes absolute sense and you’ve expressed it so clearly it’s really struck home!
