When I first started this newsletter, I used to write more about what was “trendy.”
Things like productivity tips, hacks, and morning routines.
But honestly, most of the time, it felt like a job to write about them.
The more I learn, the more I realize: those things aren’t what really matter. At least not first.
What actually matters is asking deeper questions.
Finding alignment within.
Because once you reconnect with yourself, the rest starts to flow naturally.
Now, I only write about what I’m genuinely curious about — things I’m living, learning, or wrestling with in real time.
And I’ll keep doing it that way.
Today’s topic is one I’m genuinely excited to share.
Synchronicities started showing up in my life right after I committed to daily meditation.
Basically, I learned how to be present… and life started rewarding me for it.
That’s why I believe stillness is one of the most powerful ”cheat codes” for living a meaningful life.
A story too perfect to be random
Let’s kick it off with a mind-blowing story I heard recently.
”Years ago, Anthony Hopkins was preparing for a movie role based on a novel called The Girl from Petrovka by George Feifer.
He wanted to read the book before filming, but no matter where he looked (bookstores, libraries, friends), he couldn’t find a single copy.
After searching for hours, he finally gave up and headed to Leicester Square station to catch a train home. As he waited, something caught his eye.
A book was sitting on a nearby bench. He picked it up. It was The Girl from Petrovka. And not just any copy, it had handwritten notes inside.
Fast forward two years, while filming the movie, Hopkins met George Feifer. During their conversation, the author casually mentioned that he no longer had a copy of his own book. He had lent it to a friend who lost it in London.
Hopkins paused. He went to retrieve the copy he had found.
Same copy. Same notes. Same book.
It was Feifer’s original copy — the exact one he had lost years earlier.
Hopkins later said that reading the author’s personal notes helped him understand the character on a much deeper level. ”
How crazy is that?
So… What are Synchronicities?
The first time I got truly curious about synchronicities was at a Joe Dispenza retreat.
He talked about how the more present you become, the more you connect to what he calls “the void”, the more the universe starts responding to you.
In simple terms?
You shift your energy… and life shifts with you.
That’s when synchronicities start to show up.
Carl Jung described synchronicity as a “meaningful coincidence.”
Not just two random things happening at the same time, but a connection that feels personal.
Like the universe is having a conversation with you.
And if you’ve ever experienced one, you know what I mean:
- You think of someone, and they text you.
- You keep seeing the same number, again and again.
- You meet the right person, at the exact time you needed to.
- You’re stuck on something… and then a line from a book, a podcast, or a stranger’s words hits like lightning.
For me, synchronicities are signs. Confirmations. Nudges from something bigger.
A reminder that I’m not lost, I’m being guided.
It’s not about being delusional or “looking for signs” everywhere.
It’s about being awake enough to notice what’s already there.
Not everything in life is logical.
Some things are felt. Known. Recognized without explanation.
And synchronicities are one of those things.
We were taught not to notice
We grew up in systems built on logic, proof, and certainty.
If you can’t measure it, it’s not real.
If you can’t explain it, it doesn’t matter.
So we learned to distrust our instincts.
To ignore our intuition.
To dismiss the strange things that couldn’t be explained.
We were trained to value facts over feeling.
To believe that the “real world” is only what we can see, touch, and prove. Why?
Because it’s easier to control people who don’t question.
Easier to manage those who follow the script.
Who stay busy, stay skeptical, stay inside the lines.
When you don’t trust yourself, you look outside yourself for all the answers.
You become more obedient. Easier to control. Easier to sell to.
You stop wondering what’s real… and start accepting what you’re told.
And somewhere along the way… We stopped noticing the magic.
The strange moments. The gut feelings. The perfect timing.
The gentle guidance that’s been there the whole time.
We didn’t lose it.
We were just trained to look away.
Ancient teachings knew this
The more I explore different philosophies, spiritual traditions, and ancient texts, the more I realize that they’re all pointing to the same truth.
That we’re not separate.
That life isn’t random.
That we’re part of something intelligent, connected, and alive.
We are the universe experiencing itself.
We’re not just in the world, we are of it.
Made from the same energy, the same particles, the same source.
Even science is starting to catch up.
In quantum physics, there’s something called entanglement, where two particles can be linked across time and space.
Move one, and the other responds instantly.
No wires. No signal. No explanation… just connection.
And it makes me wonder:
How did so many ancient cultures all talk about the same thing?
Energy. Frequency. The power of thought. The illusion of separation.
Maybe they actually knew something.
Maybe they were tuned in to a layer of reality we’ve forgotten.
And maybe… it’s time to remember.
To question the version of “reality” we’ve been taught.
To open ourselves to the possibility that there’s more going on, that we’re not just walking through life… we’re in constant dialogue with it.
When do synchronicities show up?
They tend to appear when something inside you shifts.
When you’re more present. Still. Aligned.
Not when you’re trying to force it, but when you finally slow down enough to notice what’s already been speaking to you.
They’re like breadcrumbs guiding you forward, especially in moments of uncertainty.
For me, it started to happen when I committed to daily meditation.
Not the kind where you’re just trying to “relax”, but the kind where you stay present long enough to go beyond yourself.
The more I sat with stillness, the more I began to trust my inner voice.
I stopped caring so much about what other people thought.
I stopped trying to figure everything out with logic alone.
I started to feel that I’m not doing this alone.
I felt held. Guided.
Like something, call it the Universe, God, Source, was always with me.
Once I opened myself to that, life started showing up differently.
Like the path was always there…
I just needed to slow down enough to see it.
You were never meant to do this alone
A week or so ago, I booked an outdoor yoga class.
I wasn’t even sure if I wanted to go.
The weather looked bad, I was tired, and I almost canceled.
But something in me said, “Go.”
At the time, I’d been thinking a lot about my newsletter.
Whether I should keep writing it.
How I could grow it into something bigger.
I have a few new projects I’m working on, and I was questioning a lot — my focus, my direction, my choices.
I arrived at the class and ended up walking in with a girl I’d never met before.
We talked casually — small talk about the teacher, the space, the weather.
And then, out of nowhere, she said:
“I know you, Lina. I read your newsletter. I love it.”
I froze.
Not because I’m famous (I’m not).
Not because she knew everything about me (she didn’t).
But because of the timing.
Just hours earlier, I had been doubting the very thing she was now validating.
It wasn’t some dramatic sign.
But it was exactly what I needed, exactly when I needed it.
It felt like the universe saying:
”Keep going. You’re on the right path.”
And right after that, I got several more messages from people saying how much the newsletter means to them.
It suddenly felt so obvious, like of course I should keep going.
And it happened right at the moment I was questioning everything.
And this is just one example, one of many I’ve noticed lately.
And what I’ve realized is:
When life starts speaking to you like this, everything just feels a little more alive.
You stop overthinking. You start noticing.
And decision-making becomes effortless, because you’re not doing it alone.
You’re not just a body walking through time
The world isn’t made of solid matter. It’s made of energy.
That reality itself responds to observation, thought, emotion.
You’re not a fixed person in a random world.
You’re an energy field, interacting with a much larger one.
When you shift your inner world, your emotions, your focus, your beliefs, the outer world begins to respond.
That’s why your healing matters.
That’s why your alignment matters.
Because the universe doesn’t just speak through signs.
It reflects your state.
If you’re chaotic, it will show you chaos.
If you’re grounded, it will echo back calm.
If you’re awake… it will meet you there.
This is the whole point
I want to leave you with this:
I don’t believe in coincidences. Not really.
Nothing happens by pure chance.
Synchronicities are real.
They’re not random. They’re not fantasy.
They’re messages for those who are present enough to notice.
The more you return to yourself, the version of you beneath the noise, the more clearly life starts speaking back.
And here’s what I’ve come to believe:
The universe has always been on your side.
You can keep resisting, trying to control it all or you can learn to move with it.
Let it guide you. Let it support you. Let it surprise you.
