If you have a thought, a reaction, an emotion it’s yours.
Now as being a SUPER SENSITIVE person I understand we can feel others energy quite easily and be affected by the events around us.
However! The way they are affecting you is your responsibility. No questions.
This is one of the first lessons I learned on my healing journey. As I started looking back into my hurts I’d blame and I’d be so upset at others actions towards me. But during some of my first healing sessions it became clear than if I shifted the feelings inside of me then my outer experiences changed as well.
It had nothing to do with the other person at all. They were allowed to have their own thoughts, emotions and experiences regardless of how I felt about it.
And again. I’m coming up against emotions and belief systems that are learned from others who I am wanting to blame.
“Get your bad energy outta my space”
But really. They are allowed to be however they want to be, and it’s up to me to shift my reaction to their words and actions.
And once I do I’ll actually be able to not just tolerate them in my space but love them for who they are.
This is a huge concept.
It’s not easy.
Sometimes we have no idea why we are triggered.
Sometimes we need to use these experiences and relationships to find those triggers that we hold deep down.
This is where we get our awareness from is these interactions.
So they are not bad and serve a purpose even if they are hurtful and hard to deal with.
But the only thing we need to do with that awareness is dig into where inside of ourselves it’s affecting US!
Cause that’s our responsibility and really it’s the only thing we can be responsible for.
So let’s take a deep breath and sit quietly with this.
What is it that we are not accepting?
What is it that we haven’t forgiven?
What are we not ready to let go of yet?
Where can we soften in our relationships?
What or who are triggering you lately? What does that bring up inside of you?
Grab a journal and let’s process these thoughts and settle into the new awareness this brings up for you. ?
