The chasm of pause before one takes back their power can feel deep, broad, and never-ending. Yet – the moment it happens, peace prevails, and that who you unquestionably are shines through your being. Honor yourself and others with compassionate communication. We are all a work in progress, and the more we practice, the more we evolve together in this arena.
How to take back your power from unhealthy situations
First and foremost ~>
BREATHE and get out of Amygdala Highjack.
1. Notice and be aware of how the experience affects your body?
Do you feel uneasy sensations in your gut, heart, or legs? If yes, your intuition – your “gut feeling” is speaking to you. Trust it. Look within and ask what it is telling you. Listen to the answers you receive and breathe. You listened deeply, you heard the information, and now the choice is yours.
2. Be willing to be uncomfortable in the choices that are good for you and are transforming your current situation into a more positive one. This is where you rediscover your power.
Follow through on what you know to be true for yourself to create peace. The willingness to do so will generate remarkable events for you and those around you.
3. Have clear and compassionate conversations with yourself and those you need to establish new and healthy relationships.
In your conversations, Begin with being a good listener and with personal accountability. Look to empathize, to understand more fully different perspectives and experiences. This validation for others will create more grace when it is your time to express yourself. If that time is not reciprocated for you – you have your answers.
Take responsibility for your past actions, mistakes, and choices. ***Let me be clear; you are not responsible for others’ unhealthy and hurtful choices toward you – at all – ever.*** However, forgiveness is a Power-tool, so Forgive yourself and others for past mistakes and create more space in your soul for peace, love, and deeper connections with yourself and others. You are with it, I promise.
Love,
