Day 198 - A Year to Clear - Self Accepting
/Lesson 198: Self Accepting
Today we are to practise the following statement in present time “I allow myself to be myself.”
Notice your feelings as you say this statement over the course of the day but also any resistance to this but allow them to be.
When I allowed the words to flow from my mouth, I felt a sense of calm and acceptance. I really felt like those words were true. I guess when you’ve never really told yourself to just be yourself, it’s a new feeling and sense. I was reminded to just be a better version of myself when I did a group meditation today. The messages I received from meditation is that to not let the emotions rise up from things I truly don’t care about. I received the reminder that it’s okay to let the annoyances of the day to just wash over me and not to let them get to me. There is something better for me than to fall victim to the noise of the world. This is all in reference to my office job – it’s not truly what I am meant to do in life, so why am I letting it bother me so much. I just need to let the emotions go and let them wash away. The emotions I get from the woes of work, is not truly me. If I allow myself to be myself, then I would just let it out to the Universe and move on.
I will continue to practise this statement out loud so that this calming feeling can spread to any day of the week.
