The transformation that happens when you walk into a room with your bullsh*t and baggage from the week, and all of a sudden, the lights dim and you start the breath and move, and suddenly that mind-stuff doesn’t matter anymore.
I think of inner self talk like a text message, all tone is removed…which I think we can all agree is dangerous. Can we wordsmith our inner dialogue?
If I still had an AOL Instant Messenger account, my away message this week would have said: “BRB, busy healing childhood wounds, byeeeee!”
I’ll bet you think this VM is about you, don’t you? This was my “you’re so vain” moment. Here’s what I learned the hard way…sometimes it’s not about me. Let me type that again. It’s not always about me.
I’ll be honest, rejection is probably my number one pain trigger. But, if I claim to love the uncomfort zone, it’s probably about time I learn to love rejection. I believe all experiences directly support personal growth and upliftment. Maybe I need to settle in, just like in my favorite yoga pose half pigeon, and find that space that allows me to find some comfort in the discomfort of all the emotions that come with rejection.
