DIVING INTO: YOU DON’T HAVE TO “FIT THE VIBE” TO LIVE YOUR DHARMA
Hi love,
When we talk about inner work — meditation, spirituality, purpose — there’s often a very specific picture that comes to mind.
A robe-wearing monk on a mountaintop.
The yoga expert who’s always calm.
A powerful manifester who never doubts themselves and has everything always work out perfectly.
A perfect person who always eats green, never stresses out or has a glass of wine and always has the right, compassion answer to everything.
Or someone who’s just not you.
Our mind can concoct a lot of different stereotypes to what we “should” be in order to be “good” at our inner work practice.
And I want you to throw all of those away.
Because living your purpose — what’s known in yogic philosophy as the Law of Dharma — has nothing to do with fitting a mold.
It has everything to do with getting honest about the gifts, joys, and passions that are already inside of you — shaped by your beautiful unique path — and finding a way to offer them in service to others.
Dharma isn’t a trend — it’s your truth
Every single one of us has a unique energy, a set of strengths, and a way of seeing the world that’s meant to ripple outward.
It might show up in the way you:
Communicate with empathy
Build community
Innovate creatively
Nurture others
Turn pain into wisdom
Or lead with integrity in a space that needs it
It doesn’t need to look like crystals and retreats and enlightenment rituals.
It might look like building a business that’s heart-led.
Or parenting differently than you were parented.
Or healing a pattern in your lineage.
Or creating space in your friendships for deeper connection.
Or simply learning how to love yourself more radically — and showing up from that place.
That’s dharma.
And when you start living from it — life stops feeling like a performance. It starts to feel like purpose.
Here’s the shift:
You don’t need to follow someone else’s version of “the path.” You just need to listen more deeply to your own.
Real transformation doesn’t ask you to become a perfect, polished version of someone else.
It asks you to release the noise, soften the performance, and come home to your actual self — the version that is grounded, powerful, gifted, and deeply needed in the world as you are.
So take up space in the ways only you can.
Let your voice, your work, your joy become your practice. Let your path be uniquely yours — because that’s exactly the point.
✏️ QUESTION FOR REFLECTION + GUIDING TIP: YOU DON’T HAVE TO “FIT THE VIBE” TO LIVE YOUR DHARMA
Question for Reflection:
What part of me have I been hiding or downplaying because I thought it didn’t “fit” the image of someone on a spiritual path?
Guiding Tip:
Your dharma doesn’t ask you to fit in. It asks you to remember who you are — and offer that, as fully as you can in this present moment. (Because it grows as you do!)
With love,
Dominique
