Jun 01, 2021When you Accept what Is...
Hear me out for a minute...
When the wind blows, we don't try to change it; we accept it as it is. We don't run up to the trees and attempt to hold them down because ultimately that wouldn't work. The movement of the trees is a bi-product of the wind. When it rains, we don't try to change it, stop it or alter it. Although some days we may not want it, we don't push against the sky to make it stop, we simply accept it and adapt.
What if we used this same concept with our emotions? What if when our emotions came up, we didn't try to change them, suppress them, minimize them or ignore them, we simply accepted and adapted?
What if we accepted them for what they are: energy moving through us.
What if we backed up, allowed space for our emotions so they could move through us instead of become us?
My theory is that when emotions come up for us, it's a clue. A clue that has the potential to lead us to deeper healing, understanding and awareness.
What if you approached your emotions like you do the wind and the rain - accept them for what they are, shift to a vantage point of observation and adapt, as needed?
I invite you to honor any feelings that arise for you in the coming days, accept what is, while you stand firmly in your truth; stand firmly in the knowing that you are grounded, despite any emotion or feeling that moves through you.
Something to consider: "I am the container for all of my emotions: I allow them in and I allow them out."
