In the very interesting https://medium.com/new-earth-consciousness/a-channeling-on-how-to-channel-c9db70cb71f1 , Jean Carfantan writes in relevant part: "So expressing your higher self requires that you leave the comfortable zone, you must go beyond, push the envelope as the pilots say, push the limit so that your ego little by little lets go of some defenses, rebuilds new ones that are more adapted, to receive the wisdom of your higher self, without putting yourself in danger in your daily life, without exposing yourself more than necessary."
Does that describe your thinking?
