Journey of the Soul Healing

#souljourneying

As humans we all need to feel safe; we all need to belong. That spells survival when we are small. Even decades later, our inner voices may still be conditioned to worry, What if I make them angry? What if they think I am too difficult? As we work to overcome problematic people-pleasing, we need to find a balance between pleasing others (meeting their needs) and pleasing ourselves (meeting our own needs). We can do this by: Recognizing that your needs matter as much as ev...eryone else’s. Noticing negative assumptions and challenging them (don’t assume that people think ill of you or that differing opinions won’t be accepted) Tolerating the discomfort of being criticized or not liked. Nurturing or seeking relationships with people who accept you for who you are. Getting to know yourself better (knowing what you like, what you need, what your goals are) Identifying your values Living authentically (in alignment with your beliefs and interests) Being assertive Setting boundaries without guilt (remembering that boundaries are kind and helpful) Accepting that not everyone will like you or be happy with you all the time Maintaining a give-and-take in relationships and limiting time with takers who don’t reciprocate Accepting that you can’t control what others think of you. - Sharon Martin, LCSW, Psych Central Doesn't that sound like freedom?

Life has a funny way of teaching us lessons. When there is something you need to learn, something that you need to work on, the same situation will continue to repeat itself until you either learn your lesson or find a healthy way of dealing with that particular issue. Some of the people give up, some get stuck in a vicious cycle of their own making, and others don’t even realize that they are basically chasing their tail, repeating the same pattern over and over. Some lesso...ns take longer than others. Instead of reacting to situations, when something comes up and seems familiar, I try to stand backif even for a secondto think. It could be a lesson in humility or a lesson in gratitude, or maybe you may need to learn empathy to see things from the other person’s point of view. Instead of reacting all the time, every time something challenging comes up it could be an opportunity to learn. What we call chaos is just patterns we haven’t recognized. What we call random is just patterns we can’t decipher. ~Chuck Palahniuk Project Happiness

Just keep going

So pretty much this is me plus Reiki

Resilience and determination Time to tap into your personal well of strength. When we meet our challenges with compassion and love, it creates a faster transformation. Merge with your challenges as opposed to viewing it as a battle. Opposition can often increase resistance, so the more you can view your current hurdle with a sense of curiosity, the easier it will be. Sending blessings of strength to you all today #strength #soulsjourneyhawaii #threadsoffate
