Human connection is still an important part of life when moving through inner change and personal transformation, but it does require a bit of finesse to do it mindfully. Not only are you releasing the old and honoring your new changing needs and desires, you are also in a place of reconfiguring personal connections, too.

This phase of personal development can be a bit lonely and unsettling. At times you may feel like you need to explain or share the “new you” with family and old friends, even as your clarity is still forming. You also may feel a deep need to retreat and spend time alone to focus on self-care.

In addition, your “new skin” can feel like a delicate egg shell that’s still forming and can crack open at any moment, making it hard to tune into new, supportive connections.

On this episode of Flirting with Enlightenment, we talk about the essential changes you experience as you become more in tune with your true self, and mindful ways to be social as you move through transformation along your path.
