A Common Misconception About Mindset and Energy Work…

It doesn’t mean you’re happy all the time. Pretending that ‘it’s all good’ when it’s not isn’t helpful.

I’ve been doing a lot of teaching around this in my masterminds lately, and it really hit home for a lot of people this week.

Emotions are meant to be felt – all of them. They are part of our path to healing. And by felt, sometimes it means you need to wallow in them. THAT is true energy work.

Because in the acknowledgment of them, we are able to slowly but surely make space for other emotions.

You’ve heard the phrase, what you focus on expands. It makes sense, and it works. But there can be a flaw in the application. It doesn’t mean you are supposed to just not pay attention to something that is very real.

Mindset and energy work are not about avoiding things or pretending they don’t exist. Sometimes it is about allowing things to co exist.

Yes you can feel sadness and grief, but can you also make space for joy, gratitude and appreciation in another area of your life?

Can you let them both be there?  Can you find moments of happiness and encouragement?

Can you allow those feelings to lift your spirit and offer hope?

To your success!
