Upon reflecting on last week, I can see how I was pulled into the space of ego by those around me at work. I got involved in their personal journey and got pulled into their level of consciousness which in turn meant that I became a reflection of their head space and not of my own.
This happens often because I’m an empathetic person who absorbs the energy around me and in turn puts out in the world what it is pouring over me. But I’ve come to learn that there are ways in which I can protect my own energy and become better at showing up in the world in a way that is true to me and how I want to be. Though at the moment this is a big challenge, I’m determined to learn how to become better at this.
So, as this week comes to an end and the next week starts, I pray that I can let go of all the tension that I’m carrying from events and situations that disrupted my energy.
I pray that I can step into the space of peace and pause, so that I can lead with joy and gratitude.
I pray that I don’t overstep my own boundaries and the boundaries of those around me.
I pray that I can let go of the claims that bring me down, so that I can live in abundance.
I pray that I am kind to myself and that I don’t cast judgement for the inability to protect my own energy all the time.
I pray that I am constantly reminded of Maya Angelou’s wisdom: “Do the best you can until you know better, then when you know better do better.”
I pray that this week I am able to be more deliberate about my experiences, decisions and outcomes.
I pray that I remain focused on what matters to me and that I don’t try to impress, please and or meet the expectations of others.
I pray that I become more confident in expressing my authentic self and that I don’t carry shame, embarrassment and or fear around who and how I am.
I pray that I stay close to my heart and don’t let my ego take me away from my centre.
Love Always,
M
