*Never invalidate your feelings*
Being an empath I navigate each day through the perspective of others - each person I meet and each situation I'm in is then experienced from the lens of their awareness... Their emotions, their thoughts, their pain...
It took me a long time to understand that as I was overcome by external energies my own feelings were always invalidated. My emotions brushed aside to make way for someone else's pain - thinking that this was helpful and healthy 🥴
And so many of you live like this too by saying things like *"my problems are nothing compared to so-and-so"*
But don't forget that your problems are important because they are YOUR worries that possibly keep you awake at night or bring upon anxiety and fear -
So let's stop that!
We each have our own Triple A -
* Acknowledge that you are upset by naming the emotion and feeling where it sits in your body
* Accept that your feelings are valid and okay to feel
* Allow them to release through journalling, meditation, prayer or verbal communication
Show yourself compassion as you move through these steps understanding that acknowledgment of our inner feelings allow release so from now on give your concerns a space to breathe 🤍
And remember that only once we have given this turmoil a passage to move through will be possible to open our hearts to living in gratitude and calm with greater ease 🪻
