WEEKLY SPIRITUAL ENERGY- July 15 – July 21, 2024  by Lady Dyanna

                                   “Don’t limit your challenges. Challenge your limits.” – Anonymous

Whenever we look at a part of ourselves or someone else and says, “This does not deserve love”, we unwittingly place a barrier on our own hearts. We may have been taught by others that sensitivity is for the weak, that compassion is for the naive, and that love is only for the beautiful and deserving.
Most of us will have inherited our parents’ and authority figures’ judgments of us. These judgments may have persisted as barriers to loving ourselves as we became adults. The walls we put up inside ourselves usually don’t just stay there, but become the walls we put up between ourselves and the others around us. Believing that we are flawed and unlovable, we actually affect our relationships because we’re busy hiding our objects of shame from others, distancing ourselves from them, and putting up false fronts.
The time has come for us to learn to love it all. Authenticity becomes important to us once self-love teaches us to accept ourselves, together with all our imperfections. Doing so, loving others and their imperfections becomes easier too.
Compassion becomes natural when we understand that everyone has been damaged in some way by false beliefs and fear. Our compassion is complete when it includes everyone and ourselves. Carrying this compassion, we will fight ourselves less, love ourselves more, and become capable of more.

Affirmation: I release self-judgment, self-punishment, and self-sabotage.
