UNDERSTANDING IS THE FIRST STEP TO ACCEPTANCE

FACILITATING HEALING

Facilitating Healing

You cannot help people heal
unless you are feeling love in your heart.

Then what you say and do will flow through your love,
not through your fear,
and you will inspire, encourage and uplift.

Remember, you are here to empower others,
not to fix them or to take responsibility for their pain.

So don’t force your gift on others.
Give to those who ask for your help
and are ready to receive it.
Then, you will not trespass on them
or exhaust your own energies.

THE COMPULSION TO HEAL

The Compulsion to Heal

The compulsion to heal others
can be a major obstacle to your own healing.

Some people don’t need or want you to fix them.
Some people can’t be healed, no matter how you try.

Please step back, detach, and let go.
Give people the space to heal themselves.
It will be the best gift you could give to them
and to yourself.

EMOTIONAL AND SEXUAL BETRAYAL

Emotional and Sexual Betrayal

When love is mutual and you and your partner
are surrendered to each other emotionally,
sex is uplifting and sacred.

But when communication in your relationship
becomes careless and shoddy,
when time is not taken for one-to-one intimacy,
your relationship becomes a shell
in which you both hide.

Energy and commitment disappear from your union,
and sex becomes an act of physical betrayal.

It is not surprising then that one or both of you
may look outside the relationship for satisfaction.

Infidelity is a symptom of your emotional disconnection
from each other.
Unfortunately, it involves another person in the dynamics
and makes it more difficult
for healing and reconciliation to take place.

LET GO OR BE DRAGGED

LET GO...or be dragged!! Decide to release the hold on what you have been hanging on to that has kept you stuck, frozen, ashamed, or indecisive. Let go of the clutter in your life, and decide not to do harm to yourself in your own mind. Give yourself permission to release any memories of experiences that keep you from creating your GREATEST life.

Look around the spaces of your life, and take the time to clean up, clear out, and throw out what does not serve you. Do you own the stuff in your life...or does it own you? Learn to live with less. The more you release...physically and mentally, the more space you will create for new energy, new relationships and friendships, and brand new perspectives on life. Sometimes ~ less is more! Free yourself to live a life you love! You Deserve!

YOUR LIFE MATTERS

You are important to life. Take time to shut out the world and take care of you. Initiate a process to become grounded. Create a ritual where you go within yourself to create a space of joy, peace, and healing as a process of centering yourself. Leave behind the worry, anxiety and stresses of life, if only for a minute, around finances, work, family, health, and relationships.

Focus on things that build a stronger and more courageous you and that help you to get a good night's sleep. These may include mindfulness, chanting, meditation, deep breathing, laughter, prayer, enjoying silence and stillness. Read something inspiring, stretch and exercise your body and mind and practice gratitude. Your life matters. You have something special. You have GREATNESS within you!
