Many are so use to being criticized every day that when they leave the confines of their cage they continue to take everything very personal. As they try to step up and speak up for them selves they sometimes falter in their approach. Those that patiently and lovingly stay with them through those times are absolute Angels.
Remember those that abandoned you during your healing are scared with serious issues of their own. Try to forgive them, and especially forgive yourself for the stumbling and the awkwardness in this new world of freedom. You are learning to walk again. You are raw, terrified and so very vulnerable, easily opening your self up to other narcissistic people. It takes time to realize you are able to safely express yourself. Exercising your muscles of self empowerment takes time. Breathe and keep on keeping on. One day, yes maybe several years later you will wake up and realize you are restored to wholeness again. oaoa https://soundstrue.leadpages.co/empaths-survival-guide/
I encourage you to download this free chapter from Judiths new book The Empath's Survival Guide ""WHAT IS AN EMPATH? Empaths have an extremely reactive neurological system. We don’t have the same filters that other people do to block out stimulation. As a consequence, we absorb into our own bodies both the positive and stressful energies around us. We are so sensitive that it’s like holding something in a hand that has fifty fingers instead of five. We are truly super responders. Research shows that high sensitivity affects approximately 20 percent of the population, though the degree of one’s sensitivity can vary.1 Empaths have often been labeled as “overly sensitive” and told to “get a thicker skin.” As children and adults, we are shamed for our sensitivities rather than supported. We may experience chronic exhaustion and want to retreat from the world because it often feels so overwhelming. But at this point in my life, I wouldn’t give up being an empath for anything." ~ Judith Orloff,MD As a Spiritual Alchemist I found Natalie perfectly described what is involved.
"A spiritual alchemist is a person who seeks spiritual direction, spiritual connection, and spiritual growth by embarking on a fearless, joyful, and lifelong path to self-knowledge. Many traditions teach that spiritual connection comes through transcending the self (through meditation, etc.). The underlying premise of spiritual alchemy, however, is that we connect with the divine—and learn to hear the voice of our soul (the part of us that is part of the divine)—through who we are today. Spiritual alchemists are essentially people who yearn to deepen their connection to the “above”—to the divine." http://thespiritualalchemist.com/about/ It is comforting in knowing that we empaths are recognized as more than the New Age trend some make it out to be.
By Judith Orloff, MD The trademark of an empath is that they feel and absorb other people's emotions and/or physical symptoms because of their high sensitivities. They filter the world through their intuition and have a difficult time intellectualizing their feelings. 10 Traits of an Empath
Interesting conundrum: We intentionally work to expose and heal those murky layers to allow more Light to radiate out. Thus sending out more Light, This opens us up to be more sensitive to a larger population and all their emotions. Yet as an empath this means we are also setting ourselves up For even more diverse energies to bombard us. Talk about brave ! Breathe knowing you are an amazing strong courageous person. For you face your own fears and then step out to face the fears of others. This takes absolute Faith to leap into your calling as medicine women and men. My cup runneth over ~ Diana Time to face the day ahead. Time to clear and align my energy field, connect with Source, ground and center as a means of staying above the bogs. Always starting with the breath. Remember whatever your definition of God, God is within, without, all around and in every living thing and creature.
May you be met with kindness in evrything you meet today. And if not? Be the kindness. Breathe in the Light, exhale the love. I have been using the term setbacks to refer to those times when releasing repressed emotions. Is it really a set back? Or is it a chance for moving forward with lesser baggage. We are taught to not show our emotional chaos for it implies weakness, even mental illness. Mental breakdowns,nervous breakdowns etc. Many years ago I could no longer hold back my tears of repressed sorrow and grief. I held them in for so long for they only riled my partner into anger and my goal was to keep harmony in my home at all costs. Alas they poured out of me like a waterfall. Four days of uncontrollable crying. Needless to say this did not bring harmony to my home. My partner was livid with me. He called several mental institutions to have me committed and prove me an unfit parent. This only made me cry more for I was once again afraid. The burden of his raging emotions and all my childrens innocent fears weighed me down and I could no longer figure out whose pain was whose. Had I known then that I was an empath I may of handled this situation differently. I know I would of handled it with a stronger conviction.. A reminder to us all to keep doing our spiritual practices, our energy work and as an empath stay grounded and centered. As far as calling our days of sadness or feelings of rejection or abandonment set backs? They are merely the stirrings, the necessary means to activate those dark niches ad hopefully release them completely this time. They are most definitely a means to move forward with a more radiant Light. Instead of the ever depressing Facebook happening lately here is an alternative media site.

It is so easy to perform spiritual work to own our projections, work through negative states of consciousness, and to shine our light in the world when everything in life is going “right”. But when true challenges come in it is so interesting to watch how we can lose our focus and fall off the path. I am pretty amazed to read what some people on posting on social media. I know we can do better. I know many of us are having a really hard time watching all that is going on that effects our environment, human rights, and animal rights. But this is not the time to lose our focus on our spiritual work. Yes, become activists and donate money to help organizations that are defending our planet and our rights. Don’t discount the power of spiritual work. And remember that using the principle of oneness and unity consciousness whatever energies we send out to others comes bouncing right back to us and to all who we love. Sending hate is not the solution. Why not feed yourself, your loved ones, all life on the planet, and the Earth with love right now? It is time for all of us to hold our focus and a positive vision for all of life. This is a time of enormous teaching for all of us. We have to remain strong in the midst of so much turbulence. Evolution is occurring. All initiations involve dismemberment, disintegration, illumination, remembering, reconstruction, and re-emergence. Too many people are getting lost in fearing the disintegration that we forget to stay on the path that leads to illumination. What is love but acceptance of the other, whatever he is. Anaïs Nin
Then there is romantic Love. We hear how we do not need anyone to complete us. I use to agree but now I find that statement rather smug. But human affection is a lovely thing. To know you have a love that accepts you back is Divinely sent. To have someone who takes the time to really look into your eyes and see the beauty that is you and adore what they see. The warm skin to skin embraces are healing and nurturing. Actually nourishing. So maybe it isn't to complete my soul so much as to enhance my essence. Morning pondering
Whether we are to focus on raising our consciuosness or thinking about Source, or prime creator. Whether we are to think about Love aand how we are all one, or why we might be The Spark of The Light it seems we are reaching these levels through analyzing, through thinking of all the possibilities. Our brains have been through many generations of conditioning. Sometimes we must just surrender ~ Surrender to the mystery. Allowing it to be a mystery brings forth the magic. One of my go to songs when I get my brain all twisted to remind me how simple it can be when we just surrender to the mystery. Satyaa & Pari - Surrender https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TxETFbJuLc As I entered the building of the nursing home, in a town I lived many years before, the stench was overhelming. My nose has always been sensitive and this smell that entered my nostrils was one of dirty clothes, medicine, and a smell of spirit decaying.
Seeing the majority of the residents in wheel chairs lined up against the wall, and the couches full of patients amazed me by how many are actually in the home. But even sadder, most of them had their heads dropped off to the side, either sleeping or in a trance from the medication. People I knew years ago as vibrant vital souls now zoned out in this bog of eternal stench. I did my best to stay uplifted and cheerful for those I was visiting, but each minute became more of a challenge. Why I did not do my Wise Woman Energy exercises before entering I do not know and boy, it sure would of helped. After visiting for a couple hours my heart ached with the heaviness I now carried. My throat was full from trying to control the sobs. I felt their distress, for they had given up. Their only hope was to die. I could feel it, I could sense it. I absorbed all their dispiritedness and carried it out the door with me., without the intention to do so. I was not prepared and now know if I was prepared with my energy work, I could of better served these disouraged souls. However it is my hope it gave them moments of repreive as fragments of their sufferings went with me. As I sat in the car I was thrown into a vortex of hopelessness. A wallowing in a bed of murky muck. The cemetery was next to the nursing home so I ventured over to my Dear Kindred Sisters grave site, Florence, and talked with her. My anquish became more sentimental and I reflected on the life I led there in that town.. It has taken two full days to process all those emotions. I could not decipher which was mine and which was theirs. Fortunely I reached out to a dear friend, Moo, and she walked me back to sanity. While in the muck I was shown my own issues and layers which needed to surface. This gave me a chance to release them to be purified along with the spirits I met earlier. ~ Diana Every moment, every issue, every emotion always carries a Gift. "Disappointment, embarrassment, irritation, resentment, anger, jealousy, and fear, instead of being bad news, are actually very clear moments that teach us where it is that we’re holding back. They teach us to perk up and lean in when we feel we’d rather collapse and back away." —Pema Chödrön "Hope is not a form of guarantee; it's a form of energy, and very frequently that energy is strongest in circumstances that are very dark."
— John Berger Within the heart of a man is the call of the wild … to be the hunter, the warrior and the conqueror. It’s how he is wired. And it shows in how he lives life, pursues his dreams, and conducts his relationships.
An awakened man will take that masculine energy and live life at a higher level, stepping away from his self-centred, self-absorbed ego-nature, and instead, pursue love with all his being. He still is the warrior, the leader, the champion, but in his enlightened state he gives himself permission to open up and reveal the tenderness of his heart, and without shame, to express his manly emotions and feelings. He accepts that he is whole, that love is who he is, but he knows that he is only half of what he is meant to be, until he has found his feminine counterpart. And so he allows his wild heart to hunger for his goddess, looking to the day when he can offer the rich gift of his love and adoration and pour it upon the one who calls to his soul. Within the heart of a man is a call of the wild … which is reflected not only in how he lives life, but in how he loves a woman. ~ Daniel Nielsen |
