The 5 Stages of Life TransformationWritten by Michelle L. Casto, M.Ed.
Continued from page 1
Stage 1: Cocoon Stage This stage is characterized by feelings of comfort, as you are beginning to awaken to need to change. You begin to realize you could be so much more and recognize an error in judgment or dysfunctional pattern (s). Stage 2: Growth Stage This stage is characterized by feelings of discomfort, as you are beginning to stretch yourself, your abilities, your environment. You experience new ways of being and thinking and have desire to transform yourself. Stage 3: Change Stage This stage is characterized by feelings of panic and fear, as you are beginning to look, feel, and act differently. You have a gut instinct that this change will be good for you, and request that Spirit assist you & provide with you with guidance. Stage 4: Flight Stage This stage is characterized by feelings of confidence and courage, as you spread your wings to leave your old home to find a new home. You now recognize yourself as a beautiful creature, have excitement about future possibilities and you just do it. Stage 5: Conscious Stage This stage is characterized by feelings of inner peace and joy, as you remember and realize who you really are. You now understand that you are a co-creator and possess power to become whatever you want to be and do whatever you want to do. ***This article was adapted from Life Transformation 101 Workbook: How to Make Life Changes and Let Your Soul Be Your Guide

The more this process is done more conscious intent and unconscious intent come to unity. Once unity is achieved it is possible to manifest exactly what one wants. Just as caterpillar struggles to break out of its comfortable cocoon, stretching itself---getting blood to its wings and body---enabling it to transform itself, you have to experience some struggle and strain in order to grow. Having gone through various stages of growth and transformation, you now have a fuller understanding of yourself and Spirit. You have shifted from what you are you going to do to who you are going to be. You have a new perspective (a mental view of aspects of a subject to each other as a whole) and a wider view of how universe works. You have hope, feeling of being deeply assured that what you desire is actively coming into existence. Your path is brightly lit from your shining inner light. Nancy Passmore once said, Awareness means participating in your own evolution. When you are aware, you can easily see many sides of life. You have capacity to be multifaceted. Just as a crystal reflects many colors when light shines on it, so too do we shine when light is put on those parts of ourselves that are hidden. ***This article was adapted from Life Transformation 101 Workbook: How to Make Life Changes and Let Your Soul Be Your Guide
