Hello and welcome to Quantum Waves of Wellness. This is Dr. Paula Apro and this week I'm going to share why it's so important to really get to know your true self. You might not want to believe this, but you were put on this Earth for a reason. Your soul has a purpose and a calling, and your health and happiness are directly linked to whether or not you're following your soul's mission.
So, do you have any idea who you really are or what your soul's mission is? I know these are really big questions that most people can spend an entire lifetime pondering. I try to keep these episodes under 10 minutes, so I'd better have a shortcut way to finding the answers to these big questions. And the good news is that I do! Today I want to tell you more about the Gene Keys.
In previous episodes, I mentioned my recent exposure and studies on this topic. Now, I want to remind you that I am not (yet) a skilled practitioner of the Gene Keys, but I want to share my experience in what I've personally learned so far because I was blown away when I discovered my soul's mission. But before I reveal what it is, I want to back up a little bit for those who don't know me personally. Let me give you just a tiny bit of background on myself.
I spent over 20 years in the field of marketing. My skills included graphic design, writing, photography, video production, web design, and digital marketing, among other things. For most of my life, I didn't even know what Energy Medicine was. In fact, I can't even explain exactly how or why I became just a little bit curious about it. I don't really know what motivated me to try Reiki for the first time, or to seek out a Pranic healer. I didn't even have anything in particular that I was trying to heal.
But yet something got me on this path nearly a decade ago, and whatever that something was, it created a very strong vortex that drew me to the next step... and then to the next step, and the next step . . . OK, you get the picture. Absolutely everything has fallen into place for me. Everything that I needed to learn suddenly appeared in my field of awareness just when I needed to learn it.
I never dreamt that I would completely change career in midlife, but I truly don't even feel like I consciously made that choice. It just sort of happened. And now that you have that background on my professional career, I would like to share with you what the Gene Keys has revealed as my "Life's Work."
This is directly from my Gene Keys course regarding my personal Life's Work, meaning "what I'm meant to do in this lifetime." Based on my exact time and place of birth, I am . . .
"... a living dynamo of creative, initiating energy. My true role in life is to catalyze stagnant situations and to shift blockages wherever I meet them. I am here to free myself from my own conditioning and to push others beyond themselves in this respect."
Another passage directly from the Gene Keys book regarding my Life Purpose says that my essence is ...
" … to touch other people's spirits in a way that helps them break out of their traps and into higher levels of freedom and energy."
The reason I found this so amazing is because I had to do a lot of thinking about my business and my services when I started this podcast only a few months ago. After weeks of deliberating on the one sentence that sums up all that I do, I settled on . . .
I help soulful seekers clear hidden energetic blockages and step into the vibrant, joyful, and healthy lives they are meant to live.
Of all the various services that I have been offering for the past decade, and believe me, there have been many, I managed to boil it all down to what I felt was the most important, and it just happened to be nearly exactly what my Gene Keys said was my Life's Work. Was that just a coincidence?
Was it a coincidence that I completely changed my career in epic ways and went on to pursue an advanced degree in my early 50s? I mean, who does that? It's crazy! But I couldn't help myself. It was as if I were being pulled or pushed by a force greater than me. I can't explain it, but one thing I know for sure is that...
I am clearly on the right path of fulfilling my soul's purpose. And I know this because all the answers that I need seem to appear just as I need them.
But here is where I should also explain something important. It's easy for us to very much identify with what we do for a living. When faced with the question, "Who am I?" many people would include their profession in the first sentence of their answer. For instance, somebody might say...."I'm an accountant and a mother of three who lives in Boulder, CO, and loves dancing."
Although the Gene Key that is called "Life's Work" might lead us to believe that's what it's all about, there is more to it. It's what makes you YOU. It's what you bring to this world just by your existence. I was recently in a Gene Keys retreat where the moderator explained it like this...She questioned, "What is the Life's Work of a tiger?" Everybody had inquisitive looks on their faces. What on Earth is the life's work of a tiger?? What a strange question to ask about the life's work of an animal.
And just when you thought that wasn't strange enough, she asked, "What is the Life's Work of a cherry tree?" Now everyone was even more stumped. She went on to say that tigers do "tiger things" and their life's work was simply to be a tiger and to bring their "tiger energy" to the world.
And a cherry tree is meant to gift the Earth by bringing it beautiful flowers and fruit. That's its only Life's Work, to be what it truly is. To live out the essence of a cherry tree. There is no question for the tree what it is meant to do.
Life can be so simple when you're not a human being.
But we are human beings, and we like to complicate things. So now I'm looking at my Life's Work Gene Key with new eyes. Yes, helping people transform their energy and release energetic blockages is what I'm naturally good at and what I probably should be doing for my work, but there is a bigger picture.
What I'm really meant to do in this lifetime is transform my own energy and release what may be several lifetimes of repressed emotional upsets that have caused blockages. This is a very important lesson for me because I'm so driven and focused on helping others. Every single thing I've learned about health and wellness, I immediately try to adopt and figure out how to share it with others. All of my energy and focus always goes outward to serving others, while I neglect my own needs. This really has to change.
I have finally realized that my soul's mission in this exact lifetime is to deal with and settle my own energy. And of course, by doing so I will naturally and inadvertently learn what it is I need to learn in order to best serve others. I am so grateful for the immense and deep wisdom provided by the Gene Keys. I have only yet scratched the surface, and I’ve already found the knowledge I gained so far life-changing.
