Let's be gentle with ourselves.

When the feelings get too intense, uncomfortable -
let's try holding our self with deeper compassion,
with unconditional love, more kindness.

When it's challenging to simply BE
in the situation, feeling the feelings, with the circumstances we find ourselves in...
let's release the judgment.
Let's not fight or resist or hinder -
Let's flow.
Let's embrace whatever we are feeling
and experiencing.

Let's allow it.
Let's befriend it...
And, when we can't,
let's just sit with it in the moment
and pay attention to the experience.

In time, it will move on, or we will let go.

Let's be gentle with ourselves.

Let's just breathe
deep, cleansing breaths...

Let's remember and reclaim the transformative power of observing, without criticism, attachment, or fear.

Let's hold ourselves, not the emotion...
Let's be with what is - without labeling it,
or allowing it to get tangled up or rooted within us.

Let's allow the energies to move through us -
to just pass through our mind, body, heart and soul.

Remember:
We assist our transformation by allowing.

Transformation is an act of surrender -
an awareness of allowing.
Its action is BEING - not doing.

So let's let go of victim thinking...
release the impulse to fix, heal, change...
and simply let ourselves be

Today:
Let's be gentle with our self, especially when things don't feel good... Let's be at rest and practice self kindness. Let's be gentle with ourselves.

Lovingly,
Leesa | The Gypsy Priestess

A tweet that says, “it is no surprise that when you feel tired, heavy, and short tempered once you start deeply engaging with your emotional history. Healing will make you feel what you avoided in this may impact your mood. Letting burdens move through is hard, but it will help you feel lighter.”]

*The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz*

I read this beautiful book sometime back and it has indeed made an impact on me and my perspective of Life. Presenting a summary of the Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz.

The Four Agreements draws on the long tradition of the Toltecs, an ancient, indigenous people of Mexico, to show you that we have been domesticated from childhood, how these internal, guiding rules hurt us and what we can do to break and replace them with a new set of agreements with ourselves.

The Four Agreements are :

Agreement 1: Be Impeccable With Your Word.

The First Agreement is to be impeccable with your word, and never use it against yourself or others. What does “impeccable” mean? In this context, it comes from a Latin word that means “without sin”. Being impeccable with your internal language means not judging or blaming yourself. Simply having those thoughts means you’re sinning against yourself. You need to change this, and start telling yourself how great you actually are, and giving yourself some TLC

Agreement 2: Don't Take Anything Personally.

When people are rude to us, it can often stay in our mind for too long, and we constantly repeat the words in our heads. When you take things personally, you begin inadvertently agreeing with the slight and making it yours, even if it had nothing too do with you.

The reality is that nothing people say or do to you is actually about you – it’s all about them.

When you get upset by something someone said to you, it’s about your own fears and experiences, which makes it essential to deal with this.

Overcoming this issue means you have to know who you are, because then you don’t need to have other people’s acceptance, and nothing they say will hurt you. Everyone looks at the world from a different viewpoint, and you should also recognize your own perspective in this.

Agreement 3: Don't Make Assumptions.

The Third Agreement tells us that instead of making assumptions, we should ask questions instead.
We often jump to conclusions and make assumptions that are wildly wrong. If you say “hi” to a friend, and they don’t reply, you would perhaps make the assumption that they were mad at you without any real evidence.

When you have trouble understanding something, you assume you know what it means. When things become clear, you can see that it means something else entirely.

Agreement 4: Always Do Your Best

The Fourth Agreement shows you how to put the first three into practice. This agreement is to always do your best, even if your best constantly changes.
If you were told to always do your best as a child, it was actually sound advice. Doing your best depends on the situation you are in, and is not a one-size-fits-all thing. On certain days your best will be world-beating, and on others maybe it’s just a struggle to get something positive done, but you do something.

To do your best, you should do things because you want to, not because of external motivation like a paycheck.

If you love the job or task you’re doing, you’ll do your best without even trying. Your work will feel effortless and you’ll perform much better. This final agreement will help you to increase the power of the other agreements, while freeing yourself from old patterns.
