Why we Experience Life Struggles
From our very first incarnation, humans are pre-programmed with discordant patterns. These discordant patterns, or programs, are directly reflected back to us in the difficult experiences we may then experience. If we initially incarnated without these programs, we are simply pure reflections of Spirit, or Source energy, and then there is no learning
The whole point of incarnation on Earth is to evolve through experience. As our souls grow and evolve, we may choose our learning experiences to be more and more testing. There is one school of thought that we begin incarnating via plant, animal or insect routes and gradually work our way up to incarnations in the human body. Initially, we may incarnate with a very simple life, one in which we are more the observer of life on Earth.
As incarnations pass, and our soul grows in experience and wisdom, we may choose more testing incarnations. Tests usually involve some type of struggle, such as betrayal or grief. To the observing human, these struggles can appear to be beyond what is fair. They can challenge us to the extreme. However, for the soul, there is growth as it evolves in wisdom and learning from direct experience.
Past Life Wounding
As lessons on Earth are learned, there tends to be a lot of emotion attached to them. These emotions can create discordant programs, which the soul then carries into each incarnation until they are removed. A trauma program for example, may result in traumatic experiences being repeated throughout multiple incarnations.
The Soul also carries karma. Karma can be rewarding, but also cause additional struggles as it can be used to balance more negative or lower vibrational actions or behaviours. The Soul may choose for example to carry a self-punishment program, to balance a damaging act it has carried out during an incarnation. However, this program may no longer be necessary and can be holding you back in this life time.
The Soul can also carry wounding, which plays out in this lifetime. A mother soul wound for example may manifest in this lifetime as difficulties with maternal figures in your reality. Difficulties will keep showing up again and again, until the soul wound is healed and cleared.


Manifesting Your Best Life
As a Soul grows and evolves, it will build up energetic programs, soul wounds and karmic patterns. Struggles we experience in our life are literally a mirror showing us our wounding and where we need to heal and release.
We keep repeating struggles until this wounding is clearing. If you keep attracting an abusive partner for example, there may be a wounding from past incarnations connected with relationships and your selfworth. When you can isolate the emotions you are feeling, and ask what in you is creating the experience which is showing you these emotions, you can start to heal and release.
When we incarnate, we also form a belief system within the first seven years of our lives. This belief system forms from experience. Beliefs tend to be along the lines of being ‘not capable’ or ‘not worthy’. The soul patterns we are holding are the blueprint for the belief system we will create for ourselves.
The keys to manifesting a happier and easier life for ourselves is two-fold. The first, is how we show up. What we choose our ‘end result’ to be and to keep our focus on our end result rather than getting stuck in a belief system that limits us. The second is to heal on a spiritual or soul level. Healing the soul improves helps your life come into balance and alignment during this incarnation, and also serves your soul on a higher level, as it becomes free of limiting patterns.
