/Lesson 159: Emotional Energy Determines Vitality...
Today we are to think about if we provide ourselves with enough emotional support. Are we in balance in providing support to others and allowing ourselves to have support?
I think in general, I’ve always been a person where people are attracted to me for emotional support. I can safely say that it’s unbalanced to where I allow myself to be supported. I feel that a lot of the time I need to face things on my own, learn and grow. I feel that if people do not understand my problem, I just simply wouldn’t go to them for the emotional support. I would go speak to a psychologist if it got really bad, but I never seek out emotional support from friends for things that I just don’t think they can handle. I know what people’s limits are as I test them with various subjects and see how far their emotional state can extend to.
I find more that I do readings through my mediumship that more and more people need more emotional support. There are so many people that aren’t able to make decisions for themselves towards a better future. I have gone above and beyond sometimes by initial reading to provide advice in their lives. I am no psychologist myself, but I find that I have a lot of life experience to be able to help others. I find people that people must see me as approachable in order to unload their issues.
I think what I do take time out to do is support myself emotionally by taking the time to self-care. I don’t always have myself available to help everyone all the time and place my own barriers up when I need to otherwise I would just get constantly drained. I have learned to place myself first sometimes and just have to say no because my time is energy. If I extend myself too much, I know it’s time to take a break from everything and everyone – those are the times to focus on self and I think that’s more than okay. I think most people can appreciate that. I have found when I do medium readings, people want me to provide all the answers and I’m not about that. I don’t want to be at someone’s beck and call whenever they need and that’s why barriers are important. I will help when I am fully energised.
How have you kept yourself balanced in your support of self and others?
