NEXT UP: 6 Body Parts Most Affected By a Spiritual Awakening bit.ly/4cwFEqY

[@lauriewhitlow5506]

That's crazy! I woke up around 3am. I had this dream/ vision that I was not of this world. I wrote about 6 pages. Then you are on my feed and have this message. Thank you. I really appreciate all you do ❣️

[@lsisak7651]

Yes it seems as if I am an alien at times. I was not meant to fit in that is for sure.

[@chrissybilleiter]

I just quit my job of 10 years last week to start living authenticly. Going to raise my children with a strong connection to the earth, her energy, and spirit. Not an easy road, and people I know may think I'm crazy, but as Maya said, the rewards are worth it. I'm also learning to activate my merkaba through Drunvalo's writings. I want to remember everything and be a guiding light for those also standing alone. 💜✨

[@chrissybilleiter]

@@LimitlessMagic777 I would definitely say you're the lucky one. Take the opportunity to figure how to make money doing something you enjoy. I don't have anything financed, have low monthly bills, and have a years worth of expenses saved in preparation. I don't know exactly what I'm going to do, but I'll be trying different ways of making money off my land (herbs and tinctures are where I'm starting). It's a little scary as I've never not worked a typical job before, but I'm trusting my intuition that tells me I am on the right path.

[@theoriginal7727]

HECK YEAH!! so much love to you. It’s the right choice.

[@joannmoorebreathtolifecoaching]

I am in the sixth decade of life on this planet, and, honestly, have never felt like I belong here, have never "fit in" (particularly with most of my own family) and have been doing my best just to carry on, not absorb other people's energies while still serving and aiding where possible (because it feels good, not because of other people's opinions of what we "should" be doing). It's been an interesting ride! Thanks for the video! It's something to watch again. Blessings! 🙏

[@stacyr6573]

Same here

[@lucieledoux6789]

I don't understand at 64 still don't know why I so keep trying to feel loved and belonging somewhere in this world.

[@lillimol]

It's so difficult, especially if you were raised to be a "good girl*, like I did. I am 32. I know I think differently from most people and there is absolutely no group I can feel I belong. Yet I still try to constantly fit any group's I end up in energy so that I can please them or avoid confrontation.. not sure if that helps, just felt to share it!

[@angelagoodwin5758]

​@lillimol I can attest to the unhealthy effects of being a "good girl".

[@colleen2b]

I can relate. I'm in my 50s. I believe I am worthy of love but no one can see that

[@callyoop1186]

I so agree! I have never really felt the need to belong, in fact i feel way more at ease and happy alone, with nature and beauty and amazing things, i get my love. When I'm driving alone I'm at peace enjoying all the wonderful beauty of the day and i get joy seeing things like horses running in a field etc. Thank you!

[@CHARLENE_WYATT]

I totally agree with you. This is true for me too, I am not made to belong and it brought me so much unnecessary suffering to try to. Thank goodness I woke up and realised who I am! Xxx

[@jdeburen]

At some point I stopped blaming myself for not fitting in and also stopped judging those who wanted to. I like many others have come to usher in a new reality that is a true paradigm shift, one rooted in love and authenticity.

[@tina74166]

@jdeburen Totally feel the same~ It's ok to stand alone- anyway-if need be~😊

[@danimurnani]

this has been big lesson for me... the more I understand mySelf, the more I feel I don't belong to anything or anyone in society. My guides told me recently "you're not meant to fit in... stop trying"

[@FractalSoul1111]

If you feel like you belong here, then you are still heavily immersed in the human experience and persona. To not only feel, but to know this is not your true state of being; nor is it your true place of being. Many people have this detachment in today's world because, whether they realize it yet or not, they are here to awaken and remember.

[@taft7877]

I love this! 😘

[@Els-ku9np]

It's all about authenticity. This gives others permission to be themselves, and so little by little changing the world. The internet connects all of us so we don't feel like we are alone. Thank you for creating this!

[@blueturquoisett8448]

Been in hermit mode for a while now, stopped trying to fit, I am learning to accept my role/purpose ❤

[@justmai5078]

You just described me 2:49: Being told I need to belong caused me a lot of suffering. Thank you 🌸

[@rebecca_stone]

This brought me the peace I needed tonight. I tried out NOT shaming and pressuring myself over failing to 'fix' this perpetual outsider feeling. And it's been such a peaceful and nurturing few hours. Thank you!

[@DebbieB2023]

I've felt that way my entire 66 years. Over the decades I've sought out groups that seemed to have people I thought I might "fit in" with. I've always pondered things that it seemed, no one else did, even as a child. I had a hard time even bringing myself to attend group gatherings of any sort, even if it was something I was really interested in, be it of a spiritual nature or a passion, like trail running or hiking. If I'm even able to get out of the car to attend, (many times I just can't and I attributed it to being a loner)...but I've gone to places I thought might hold some key and I'd belong....I don't. I simply find it very hard to fit in. I never do feel any sense I could fit in or belong and sometimes I might feel sad, but mostly I don't. The only thing that's changed now days is I don't necessarily feel like the outcast or misfit ...I rather like who I am and the fact I don't need any group, people, club to make me happy or give me a sense of purpose and I don't do social media at all, it's just not me and that's good too and better even, I believe. It took a lot for me to go through Reiki and becoming a so called reiki master but I only use it on myself and distance reiki to people. I mostly use reiki on animals and on people crossing over. I could never use it as a 'business' and take money for it. The word, Tribe, ...I thought oh now I'm supposed to have a tribe? I don't..and I don't really think any one needs to belong in a tribe either. It's okay to just be who I am, even if I just do my own thing...

[@noora853]

This video came to me when I needed it. Love you Christina I also truly believe that the topic of belonging often gets filtered through a human-centric perception, where society becomes fixated on the human experience and neglects the vast, miraculous, and magical natural world. We are surrounded by powerful living forces, such as the intricate communication system between trees through their roots, and the complex lives of ants, birds, whales, and other wonderful beings. Even the powerful weather changes and the energetic vibrations they carry are part of this natural wonder. There is so much divine intelligence in this lifetime and many teachers who do not embody human form, from whom we can all strive to learn and connect. Much love.

[@sebastianornowski333]

I've never felt like I fit in anywhere, also I've lately realized why I act a little silly and quirky around people, I'm doing it intuitively to raise the vibration in the room. Thank you 💕✨

[@ChildofGod98765]

Me too never fit in. Lord I come to you asking for your blessings as a single mom because I’m raising my children with courage, despite the challenges I face. Both of my sons are special needs and require so much from me. Lord give me strength as I struggle to pay my rent every month and as I struggle to buy groceries for my children I’m ashamed Lord help me. I ask that you bless me with your wisdom and guidance, as I navigate parenthood on my own.💕💕

[@Leesie77]

I hope one day you might be able to change the focus from speaking about struggles and giving them attention instead to accepting the lessons in those struggles and speaking your power and energy into more positive ways. Thanking God for Him guiding you and giving you those lessons to walk through so your spirit strengths as it becomes bigger. Speak as if it’s already happened, been provided and experienced. “Lord, I thank you for those lessons even the smallest of them while I’m on this beautiful journey on this earth with you always beside me. Thank you for always making sure my financial obligations are already fulfilled ahead of time. Thank you for reminding me that it’s always in Your timing and not mine. I’m humbled by your presence, kindness, grace and easy forgiveness. I ask you Lord that you continue to help me grow in your unconditional, pure, raw, easy, powerful and gentle love so that I may know you more everyday as I learn to know myself as well.” When we change the simplest way to simply speaking from having the focus switch from what we don’t have to what we do have just from a solid knowing it will happen in the future because we have belief and faith and living as if we already have what we are lacking and have experienced the experience of it already. It creates space to allow it to come into your life. Positive attracts positive, negative attracts negative. Be present in this moment, not the past or the future. The past is gone and we can’t change anything about it, the future isn’t in this very moment it hasn’t happened yet. Both past and future can cause stress that is unnecessary and keeps your attention stuck either way rather than focusing your attention in the here and now present moment. Keep going Momma, you got this. You ARE enough! You DO matter! You DO belong! You are ALWAYS exactly right where you’re supposed to be in this very moment! You ARE valued! You ARE worthy! You ARE beautiful inside and out! You ARE loved! You ARE perfectly created to be exactly who you are! You ARE already whole, never broken (our spirits (the truest self) is powerful, pure, perfect and whole). Have a beautiful and blessed day, week, month, year, decade, lifetime ❤❤❤

[@deborahluikes6348]

Brené Brown is one of my most loved guides here on earth. Her work helped me so much, I do not even have the words to discribe it. Maslows hiearchy of needs also my top human need system. So, this is by far one of my favorite video's of yours that I have ever watched. I find this video to be 100 % spot on. I'm at my most true authentic self when I have no expectation or need for belonging and belonging becomes a byproduct or a "nice to have" while I'm fully being my authentic self. Through my spiritual awakening, I now know what Brené meant with, 'We are all inextricably connected'.

[@LeandaPringle]

Thank you for this video! I am entering stage 3 and I can physically feel what you are describing here. I shifted one day when I walked into the elevator at work with 4 men all dressed similarly and I clearly stood out. Usually I would cower to the back and feel uncomfortable but I didn’t this time. I was completely amused and I realized that my purpose was to be a ‘glitch in the matrix.’ It was so liberating!

[@andrearenee7845]

[@AmeliaRomero-le7jf]

You belong you helped save my life during my awakening with your videos in 2020-23

[@leroidelanuit]

Hi Christina, I must confess something: I went through a very painful dark night of the soul that changed me completely. During this transformation, your videos kept popping up out of nowhere, as if they could read my thoughts. As usual, I questioned them just like I question everything else, especially that they used to match each state i am in. But when I got exhausted from seeing all these painful transformations combined with nothing but disappointments and more struggles on the actual ground, I decided to close the door on spirituality and started calling it the "la la land." I began working on myself emotionally and mentally, not believing in spirituality anymore. Yet, I cannot deny the cycles I see. I cannot trust or believe in them anymore, but they are there. Also, I cannot deny that i miss a core part of my energy that i am eager to have it back, my radiant spirit. This has lasted for more than a year now, and your videos stopped popping up until a couple of days ago. This video appeared, and I tried to ignore it many times, but in the end, I surrendered and decided to watch it. Guess what? Again, Every single word you said matches my current state. Even the books you mentioned, I have read them. Honestly, I am not looking for belonging anymore, despite feeling a loneliness I have never felt before. I am seeking stability. I need to feel some security in order to shine. We cannot thrive in survival mode. I hope that soon all the obstacles will be resolved, and I can spread my wings wide to the wind again.

[@divaren9467]

Hahhahahahahaha it feels like reading my own story, sorry I have to laugh, cause now I know I'm on the right path. Her Vids found me and once I was fed up with spirituality believing the universe isn't there for me anymore her Vids sort of disappeared. Now that I'm gaining back trust in the Universe and in myself, my growth, her vids are back on my "sight"

[@inadhara]

Thank you for sharing this. My father always says to me: “why can’t you just be normal like everybody else? You should’t try to be different at all times.” Well, I really tried being normal. But it just didn’t work out. I was just always different. I was bullied in school and my dad said it’s no wonder when I am this way. I have now realized that I was just forced to be around the wrong people and at the wrong place. I am now grateful to have a supportive community around me where I am valued the way I am. 💜🦁

[@lindatallon9217]

[@Julieber1]

Christina, I’ve tried to force myself to be normal, like everybody else belong part of the 3-D world. But when I realized that I couldn’t fight, and opress the feelings of the intense need to be an anime girl, I knew I didn’t go through this world. I also had noticed the hotter I tried to belong my true authentic feelings, inside of being and feeling liking anime girl the more painful it got inside. Nearly trying to fight it and run from it. You killed me a few times in this body. It’s not just an intense need to be an anime girl, but I also feel like one and feel the soul of an anime girl. So I figured that I must be a Starseed/Blue Ray that’s the only thing that makes sense.

[@jbgoth]

That happened to me. The merkaba. Everything about me shifted. I now live with a quiet mind, love for all and connected to the Universe. Blessed

This video came at the perfect time for me. Turning 40 brought with it PTSD, emotional turmoil, and a victim mentality, stemming from experiences since childhood. These challenges have shaped my desire to educate and help others evolve.Recently, I've been experiencing heart chakra breakthroughs, non-medical irritations, ear pressure, and other sensations that have caught my attention. Since childhood, my persistent issue has been a strong desire not to belong anywhere. Growing up, I was confused by bullying and wondered why people treated each other this way. Now, as an adult undergoing healing, I've had to confront and experience all these past hurts before I can help others or advocate for change. I'm on the verge of a significant breakthrough and shedding all my limiting beliefs. I can say from experience that shedding these beliefs is, if not equally, even more painful than the actual experiences I've endured

[@SideB1984]

Ahh, are you me? 👀 40, really going through it, observing and analyzing. The bullying, trying to confront it now, the pain of shedding beliefs being worse. All of that yep. Nods head. I was working through in an illustrative journal but lost steam again recently. I too appreciated this video in this stage of life. Sending love. 💕

[@sippingsun]

YES 🙌🏼 Thank you for this teaching, @ChristinaLopes ! As I’ve been navigating my spiritual awakening, I’ve been acknowledging the People-Pleaser within me who has served the Belonging Committee for decades now. With love, compassion, and respect, I encourage her to retire so that I may perform the work for which I am intended. For about 3 years now, I have been distancing myself from family and narrowing my Friend Zone (not that I’ve ever been one for many “friends” because when they’re aligned, I pour my heart into them) so drastically that it’s pretty much just _me_ now staring into my own eyes, my own being, and truly finding the connection and “belonging” I’ve sought outside myself this entire lifetime. I SUN·SCRIBE to these words: “You don’t need a “community”, you just need to commune with your Higher Self.” ♥️ xxMeryn

[@Loveruvthelight]

I’m struggling with the two bottom tiers because of 9 years of stalking and I don’t have that feeling of belonging, I never have and I have suffered a lot but now I’m accepting that fact that I don’t belong. I’m a Christian so I love Christ quote “I’m in this world but I am not of this world”. I’ve been a lone she-wolf for most of my life. I’ve grown to like it. Sometimes I get a little lonely but fit the most and art I prefer to be alone now.

[@theoriginal7727]

It is really tough, if you have trauma, PTSD, complex PTSD. Your Merkaba and Shakira system can get all whacked out. We need to have safety and when that is violated, when our trust is betrayed, especially by people close to us can damage our energetic and physical System terribly.

This lesson that you shared was so intense I had to watch little bits of it three times. I had a session with you five years ago after my daughter passed over and my divorce and you told me if I don’t follow through with my ascension my daughter would stay within this loop, and of course the open heart chakra. I did everything you said and today’s lesson is brilliant. I have a dream of coming out to Portugal and being with you and the group someday.❤❤❤❤

First of all, THANK YOU! I've been in a bit if a funk for a couple days and this message helped brighten my day. Secondly, for me, it's not so much a need to belong as it is I just feel lonely and isolated because I simply don't resonate with the people around me anymore. I can relate, as I remember what it was like before my awakening, but to live in a world that thinks they are awake when in reality they are still dreaming, is weird and lonely at times. My only comfort now comes from meeting others online going through the same thing. I share my journey on my own youtube channel hoping it helps others on their journey.❤

@spiritofhonuguidanceforlife I just want you to know that your words on a few of your videos did help. I did subscribe, and I know it's very challenging and often frustrating too---having a small YT channel-I have one too. It was 3am here, when I woke and found Christina's wonderful video.

I also since childhood never felt like I belonged, or fitted in with anyone or anything! As I grew up I accepted who I was. A loner and friends were their only when we got together. My own parents seemed not to accept me as family as I became an adult! They are gone and so is my brother. Not accepted by my brother was a doing by my dad, making sure he could get a argument going between us, then sitting back and watching the separation happen between us. He did this with my Mom also. I love who I have become and love Mom and my brother. As for dad it still sparks a trigger in me at times and have been working on me to let go.

[@kathleendrake6500]

Humor is healing at end of video it was funny when you sang video is over. Radiate love, detach or un-attach, shed or let go of old beliefs or programs, become FREE to love and belong to self, and awaken or ascend. Let your light shine or let your cleansed Merkaba light grow. I no longer want to hide my light. Yes. I want to be Template Changer or I call it just making a difference in the world. Yes. My identity, purpose, and path or journey are becoming clearer each day. Humor, light-heartedness, or becoming open rather than old ways were serious, dense, and ego or negative thought matrix driven. My whole being feels lighter and I am emanating or shining more light and Christ-Consciousness. Feeling excited, hopeful, and energetic for 1st time in a very long time. The light at the end of the tunnel is me finding my worth and belonging by finding my purpose and identity. The veil or covering is being removed. My authentic or true self was there all of the time. It was just hidden by the programs of family, false friends, culture, jobs, or the matrix. I am letting go of people, places, and things which no longer serve me. Interesting the mystery is resolving itself slowly, but surely for me. Thank you for your wisdom, mastery, and guidance to ascend. Gratitude, compassion, and connection is increasing. Love and light.

The "template changers" mentioned in this video actually prove the hierarchy of needs. They feel the need to create a template in which they can finally belong.

[@nathaliecordell2609]

This resonates so deeply. I've always struggled with belonging for as long as I can remember. Even though it wasnt necessarily painful, I often feel like an outsider, even in my family. Before I watched the video, I was thinking to myself: "I do belong, I belong to myself and I belong in the world". Little did I know that Maya Angelou, whom I love, said it!! Thank you so much for this video and helping me reframe this natural feeling. ❤

I just love the golden Buddha analogy. ❤❤

[@taft7877]

Absolutely agree with this!! Since I was a child, I didn’t feel I belonged to my family, I was not emotionally attached to any of them and I was okay with that. I have friends but I don’t need to see them all the time. I’m perfectly content living my life and don’t need to belong anywhere. The one issue with this is that spiritual teachers tell us we need to find our community. Well, I haven’t needed community before so why do I now? I absolutely believe some of us are on the earth plane because of soul contracts but we originated from a place where community isn’t emotion based, but functional based. I can get along with anyone, but I don’t suffer fools or BS. Thanks for this video.

I’ve spent many years trying to fit in, but the discomfort of NOT being authentically myself became greater than the discomfort of not fitting in. It’s a strange thing unless you’ve experienced this. It’s a feeling when you can’t pretend to fit in anymore and the only way to live is to be yourself. I learned to take care of myself, and feel comfortable being along. This all reminds me of when Jesus said “I am not of this world" in John 8:23, we are not supposed to belong because we are not of this world, we come here to challenge the old, and most people are uncomfortable with change. I’m looking forward to becoming stronger and learning what new templates I’m carrying into the world. Blessings to all of you on the same journey ❤

One of your best videos for me.. As an Israeli Jew psychodramatist that works with Merkaba... and more, you gave a great explanation .. you gave me the chills 😂 thank you sooo much 🙏🏻

[@EShadowmystic]

This video resonated with me, and I really needed to see this viewpoint. I have never “fit in” like you, though I kept trying. Now, I realize that I was never meant to. So freeing! Thank you! You, Christina, Michael Singer, and The Law of One have changed my life.

I LOVE this template changer concept. I truly resonate with this wholly. I do struggle a bit with the internal want or pressure to conform, but feel most whole and blissful when I am authentically whole to myself.

Thank You, Christina, you help me so much! 💚 I listened very carefully to everything you said in video, and I felt such a burden from my heart. At first I fought with myself, tried to understand what was wrong with me, and then I accepted myself and live the way my soul feels. Now, after your video, everything fell into place, and I understood a lot. Thank you very much! Again and again!! Because of you I find so many answers on my questions. You are precious diamond in this world, and you have deep and kind eyes.✨ Everyone, keep finding light! 🌞

Thank you Christina, I feel better already! lol I've always felt like I haven't fit in or belonged to any one particular group! Now, in my mid 70s, I'm also beginning to feel "I belong to myself"! I also feel I belong more in nature and with the beautiful song birds i.e. messengers from God, angels on Earth, that come to my feeder! My favorites being the red cardinal which was my dearly beloved late mother's favorite bird and the little cute chickadees here in New England! Blessed be~♥🐦♥

[@monicamacie1807]

You seem to be using "belonging" and "fitting in" interchangeably, in Brene Brown's work she is clear about the difference. Belonging isn't about being accepted by any certain group.

[@ChristinaLopes]

@monicamacie1807 Fitting in and belonging are different, although we sometimes experience both in our lives. Belonging (according to Brene Brown and others) is being accepted by a group while being true to yourself. Fitting in means you mold yourself to be accepted, betraying your authenticity to do so. In this video, I'm talking about belonging mostly, although I do use the term fitting in also.

[@MeganS1995]

Belonging is also a fundamental need on Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. It's important to find it in ourselves at least--giving a home to the parts that feel isolated and alone. May the inner child find the love within!

[@MeganS1995]

Oh, hah! I read the comments before watching the video. Shout out to Humanistic Psychology and Brene Brown!

[@cristinadoronzo9928]

This is just so relevant to me right now! Only a few days ago I felt that it was finally ok to not fit in and my sense of belonging is with nature. Thanks Christina!

[@sulusu4812]

Brene is overused

[@pritimaluximon2088]

Thank you so much for being straight to the point and not waste time with long hello- hi there- hiya blah blah blah!!!!

[@achevalierdc]

Thank you! ❤ It makes so much sense. The introjected belief that I need to belong and to fit in is SO stressful! Listening to your video made my body relax immediately. What you explained is such in alignment with how I feel. I might not *need* to belong but it feels really good when it happens. 😌 merci ❤

[@jennnykins]

Wow. I've had an intuitve sense of what I'm here to do in the world just from the point of view of my part in it, and you just articulated the whole picture and helped me to understand it more clearly. Thank you for this! 🙏🏻🥳

[@marie-claudenicolier1867]

Totally agree with you. I had always feel that l do not belong here and to no one, nor even to my parents nor my 2 sons belonging to me. Happy of listening to your vidéo Christina.... 🙏🙏

[@starsaligneddino]

What was described in phase 1 was totally me, down to a T. 😢 I feel so seen. Thank you. ❤

[@irregularmom1236]

Massive thanks ❤ that's something that always felt so different and strange to people and so natural to me

[@johnwells3573]

I resonated strongly with your words here. Your description of a template changer describes what I’ve been doing for years.

[@imagbaby5]

This definitely spoke to me and feel like I’ve always had a deeper and different thought process than my family or most people. And have had family say that even at how surprised they are at how I think about things but it never clicked somehow it just felt normal to me in a way and didn’t realize it was different but appreciated how I’ve been during this time. Been finding it interesting finding myself and going deeper into this all. But kinda think as well don’t almost all who go through a spiritual awakening shed old beliefs and etc that was said?

[@hkaur2268]

Wow! Thank you for this, Christina! I second like most others.. never ever felt I belonged .. anywhere for that matter.. which definitely put into a lot of childhood and early adulthood suffering ..always thought "they dont understand me, why dont they understand.. im thier daughter/grand daughter who will understand me if they dont" ..contesting beliefs, questioning everything with no answers, always got bashed for being a rebel and argumentative instead .. lol.. well 3 decades passed just like that with the increasing baggage and a tragedy caused my spiritual awakening at 33 (sadhguru also pointed out about changes as this age, which i didn't use to believe either).. it was tough but ive shed so many layers since and continuing to do so.. i do feel more confident now knowing I never needed to belong, it was only societal conditioning cementing the need to belong.. a repetitive example i go back to which might help , whenever i changed residences mostly rented or was between houses , i never said xyz's house.. i always called the place home (i want to go back home etc) even though i very clearly knew it wasnt mine and didn't feel the need to chase for one.. that was quite a revelation for me .. i also no longer worry about reacting on something with a spiritual outlook or speak my truth or opinion or respond to sarcasm cz i feel quite secure within myself comparatively.. and always thought perhaps looking at me, people in my circle suffering will also be able to acknowlegde thier stuff out atleast .. thats the first step to any self realization and change.. now just waiting for phase 3 to shape while overcoming some residual stuff left .. im not sure if i am or want to be the template changer but definitely know this isnt the HOME and now through your video ive known I never needed to belong! thank you for speaking on the topic! It definitely helps!❤️🙏🙌💐
