ADVOCATING FOR OUR SENSITIVE HEARTS

One of the hardest things as sensitive, empathic beings is standing up for yourself, and advocating for your own heart
Honestly, this has been one of the biggest parts of my journey, and something that I am still learning.

As Empaths we...

*Enjoy harmonious relationships and want to sprinkle magic fairy dust and love everywhere
*Are naturally conflict adverse
*By nature feel energy much more intensely - so find being around conflict an actual physical experience.
Let me give you an example:
When I was 10 a teacher told a friend and I off. She was yelling at us and naturally I cried (that is my nature). My friend on the other hand was able to quietly and concisely advocate for her own heart and stand up to the teacher in a strong and empowered way. .
That's the thing.
Because of our different natures, my friend was able to remain calm and centered.
I on the other hand could feel the teachers energy like a tidal wave of emotion that flooded every cell of my body.

So how do we handle conflict and advocate for our sensitive hearts:
*Avoidance and getting out of there.... two strategies which pretty much every sensitive has used!!!
*Giving love to our gentle hearts. Much of the return home to our own inner strength is about reclaiming our sensitivity as a super power.
*Learning some energy protection methods.
*Practice out loud advocating for our hearts. Look in the mirror and say
"Don't stand so close to me"
"Go away"
"I don't like it when you speak to me like that"
"Stop it, I don't like it"
I recently had a young client who had a situation that called for advocacy of her own gentle heart.
We practiced this new way of advocating for her own heart and wowser the shift in her energy! #powerhouse
