Sitting with Discomfort and Not Lashing Out.

Recently, I saw someone I had met only a handful of times, and as soon as I greeted her with a friendly hello, I saw her immediately get uncomfortable. Within minutes, she gave me a backhanded insult that had nothing to do with her, or anything that was going on in that moment.

I don’t know that I will ever understand why.

The real issue is, why couldn’t she just sit with her discomfort? Something triggered her, and only she knows what that trigger was. The irony is that within her discomfort, she lashed out at someone she hardly knew.

The reality is that we are all uncomfortable with something or someone, at some point. Sometimes it makes complete sense to us, other times, not so much. The real question is, how do we manage our present discomfort to become centered, and not pass it on to others?

Here are 4 tips:

1. Breathe. Take a minute and get some oxygen, so you can relax and take stock of yourself.

2. Ask yourself what is going on, so you can get some answers that can help you manage how you are feeling.

3. Focus and determine if something about the situation is reminding you of something else that you have not resolved. Is it problems in a current or past relationship, a past trauma, or an insecurity within yourself?

4. And lastly, are you physically uncomfortable? Take a minute to either sit down, drink some water, eat something small, get some air, or go to the restroom. Sometimes by putting ourselves on pause, we can collect ourselves.

Feelings and triggers are always something we can recover from. By getting centered from how we are feeling (and taking responsibility) before making a comment or an “observation” that will hurt, insult or embarrass someone, it may save our dignity and someone else’s feelings. In these moments, we can pivot. But fractures in relationships take much longer, if ever, to glue back together. 

I hope this message resonates with you, and helps you on your path.

Tracking Your Life to Live With Intention.

 

Things in our lives sometimes feel differently than what they actually are. This video emphasizes the importance of documenting and color coding events and activities in our calendars.

By doing this, things become clear and easily searchable. Having everything notated and color coded allows us to identify patterns and see what is working and what is not working. This gives us the opportunity to move forward feeling purposeful and fulfilled in our lives.

Tarot Card Message. Happiness, Partnership But Needing to Walk Away.

The three cards represent happiness and joy, working in partnership with another, and at some point, needing to move on. 

Certain situations can be joyful and fulfilling, and part of our journey, but there is an end to the story. It can be super painful to accept that reality and move on, but certain situations are not meant to be forever. 

I hope this helps you on your path. Please pass this along if you think it can help someone you care about.

Tapping Into The Right Side of the Brain, Where Intuition Lives.

 

We are told that we are either “right brained” or “left brained,” but the reality is that we use both sides of our brain. We may be more dominant, or have the traits of one or the other, but in order to live and survive, like most things, it is a balance.

Many of us have been conditioned to rely mostly on the left side of our brain (which is responsible for logic and analysis). When we speak of things that are not black and white, we might have been described as frivolous, silly or too emotional, and not taken seriously as a result. Research shows that there is a lot to be said about tapping into the right side of our brain, where intuition, body memory, and the subconscious lives.

Using the right side of our brain is leaning into our intuition. We can strengthen this by using visualization, releasing fear, relaxing and optimizing the physical aspect of our lives to strengthen ourselves.

Once we go into our subconscious and start using our intuition, we start relaxing. We let go of the inner (or outer) critic, and we become more creative. We start letting go and it works more and more in our favor.

Just think what this world could be if more people used the gifts given to them. We would be more fulfilled, useful, and helpful to others.

The video above is the first of a playlist I am creating, entitled "Tapping Into Our Intuition." The series is about believing in, and trusting, ourselves to live life in the most authentic and fulfilling way possible.

Tarot Card Message. Burdens, Choices, and Regret.

The three cards represent carrying a burden and having a lot of choices to pick from. Sometimes waiting for the right time and not feeling rushed is better in the long run. Waiting can be really hard when we feel pressure, but the regret of making a rash decision can be much worse. 

Take your time and do what’s right for you!
