Energy. It’s everywhere around us and in every one of us. It’s flowing within the ocean waves, twirling when fallen leaves make way for new ones, beaming when we dance to our own crafted playlist. It’s a constant rise and fall on the rhythm of our heartbeat. It’s in each inhale and each exhale. Its presence is impossible to ignore and one that can tell you more about how you carry and take care of yourself.
Unfortunately, it’s not easy to let energy flow as how it should flow in this society. Energy can flow when we can express ourselves authentically. But as we age and move through life, there comes restraints and a lot of situations where we don’t feel safe anymore to express. Still, emotions that we feel and arise from our frustration, from anger, from sadness, and even happy emotions – should flow through our natural body, and out to the natural world. Only through this way are we able to properly go through whatever we are going through at that moment. It doesn’t even have to be something big, it’s about how you feel about it. It’s about setting boundaries when you feel like someone is overstepping yours, whether they meant to do it with intent or not. We can’t be understanding of everyone’s point and making our own self as an exception. That is just not something a self loving person should do, because
You are the vocal point of yourself, you are your own home base.
Understanding and acceptation starts within yourself, it’s a non-starter if everyone comes before you, because then you will get damaged before you are even aware of it. Then, we fall behind before we even have the chance to advance ourselves.
Energy that we don’t express stays in our body. Period.
When we feel angry with someone and gulp down the words we want to say, that same anger finds a place within, rummaging around, looking for another source to let out the steam. Anger has become your unwanted house guest. The same happens when we feel like we want to say no to someone but do not dare to. Even with positive energy, when we feel joy and want to share it but fail to do so – that same feeling of wanting to share your happiness get diminished and make its roots in our veins. Another unwanted house guest makes it way to our heart.
If you don’t do anything about it, it will lead a life on its own, growing more restless and restless as time goes by.
Until your whole body feels stagnated and cloudy because of all the unexpressed feelings you once had. It takes time and awareness to get them to move out of your home. If we put a stop to our tendency to please others and start to give respond to our own needs, that’s when healing start to appear. At first, it will feel like the hardest thing you will have to do, and giving up seem to come with more ease. It will probably take a lot of attempts to even jump start the whole thing. But atleast energy will be moving, and with movement always comes growing pains and change. It is healing from within by turning your attention outwardly by learning to express your opinions, your boundaries, your stories and all what makes you you.
What comes after is what it is all about, and that is coming back to ourselves in the purest form.
Flowing with the energy within and outside of you.
