Reclaiming your power

Here is why I say blaming is a distraction:
If you feel angry or stressed, or hurt, or anxious, you may blame someone or something. What is accomplished? Does it make the feelings go away? It often makes them worse. It distracts you from doing your work--from growing up.

Try this instead:

Dive into  the feeling and experience it. Just sit with it, no matter how uncomfortable it feels.
Welcome it. Tell your fears: "Bring it!"

When you hit the peak of discomfort, tell yourself the truth:
"I created this experience." "This is my illusion." "It's not real."

Next reclaim your power, because you have given your power to someone or something, and now you need to reclaim it. Reclaim it and feel it.  "I am reclaiming my power now!" "I'm taking it back."

If you are spiritual this is the time to call forth your Higher Power/ Higher Self  and ask IT (He, She) to use you for a greater purpose in this situation.
Ask and it is given. Go forth in confidence and faith.

Beneath every fear, and every hurt, and every pocket of anger lies great power.
