Instead of trying to hide it, cherish it."
~Najwa Zebian
Our hearts allow us to be unique and individual. One of my beloved teachers has taught me that as children we take on the energy of those around us. We internalize the statements of others, we take on their shame, we take on their insecurities; we somehow abandon our magical essence in the pursuit of keeping harmony in the world around us. Our ability to feel and emote is beautiful.
Through my own personal work I have been able to ascertain that my sensitivity was and is my ability to feel through my heart. This sensitivity allows me to relate to others. This sensitivity allows me to navigate through the emotional landscape of my life. This sensitivity allows me to shed tears of sorrow and tears of joy. Within the eye of an emotion I find that life is wishing to reflect a moment in time. This too shall pass. This season will fade into the next. Nothing ever remains in a solid state. Our emotions are always changing.
One of the great thinkers of our time, John Bradshaw reminds us, "We cannot heal what we cannot feel." He also shares that, "Our emotions are a basic part of our power. Emotions help us to monitor our basic needs. They also give us fuel to act. E-motion is simply energy in motion."
Allow the e-motion of your life to move through you. Your sensitivities allow you to feel and heal. They allow you to be compassionate and kind. They allow you to be you.
May You Sweetly Seek:)
