Chasing the Picture-Perfect View when you Travel? Lessons when the Ideal Doesn’t Arrive

You know that feeling when you're planning the perfect Fall getaway? 🍂 

You imagine vibrant, colorful leaves — reds, oranges, yellows — the kind of picture-perfect foliage we see all over social media. You spend hours researching the best spots, trying to make sure you’ll be in the right place at the right time, hoping to catch nature at its peak when it’s your turn…

I get it — this was me, determined to experience Fall at its most vibrant.

But just before my trip, the Universe had a message for me:

"The green leaves that haven’t changed colors, or the fallen leaves… they are still true sides of nature. They’re all part of the natural flow of things."

This hit me. It’s easy to get fixated on the "ideal" and feel disappointed when reality doesn’t match. But when we live like that, we end up in pain for much of the journey – exhausting our energies in frustration, disappointment, complaints, lots of control and stress.

This trip gave me a chance to practice letting go — letting go of the pressure to experience Fall in its perfect form. The goal of the trip was no longer about chasing the perfect views, but to embrace whatever came my way. If I see the view, I’m good. If I don’t, I’m still good. Either way, the fact that I am on this journey is already worth celebrating, no matter what I get to see.

When we let go of needing things to go exactly our way — whether it’s a Fall trip or life — we find a deeper sense of peace and flow in whatever shows up. Turned out, even though the colors were dulled by the rainy weather (and the snow and hail!), what I got to see was still undeniably gorgeous.

The beauty is always there, even if it doesn’t look the way we imagined. ✨

Question:

How did you connect to the Universe? In what way did you receive this message?

By entering the Theta brainwave state and connecting to the Universe from a place of pure light and love, I gain access to the infinite wisdom that the Universe holds. This allows me to view life and my current circumstances from a much higher, wiser perspective. Moreover, this is a very powerful state where I can reprogram my subconscious — by identifying and releasing any limiting beliefs that may be blocking my manifestations, and replacing them with positive beliefs that accelerate my journey toward the reality I desire.

This process is a key part of Theta Healing®, a holistic technique that works by accessing the Theta brainwave state to uncover deep-rooted beliefs and emotions. Theta Healing® helps to identify and shift any limiting beliefs—especially the deep-rooted subconscious beliefs—that may be preventing you from living your best life. In this state, I also connect to the pure energy of the Universe, which can help to clear blockages, heal emotional wounds, and align you with your highest potential.

If you're interested, this is what I practice in Theta Healing®. It’s a powerful tool for transformation, and I’d be happy to share more details about how it can help you on your journey. Feel free to reach out for more information :)
