We live in a world where often it is seen as selfish to honour and put SELFs needs first. Yet if you don’t you compromise your own peace and well being if you’re constantly over giving to others, when in fact yourself needs your attention too. It’s all about finding the right balance and being okay with saying yes when it truly feels right to give and no when it is right too. If you compromise this and do things out of obligation/people pleasing it will catch up with you eventually. Exhaustion, feeling worn out, anger and resentment as you don’t have the energy to do the things you really need too for yourself. You’ve been too busy taking care of everyone else’s needs. Just a suggestion next time someone asks something from you check in honestly with yourself. If I say yes to them, am I people pleasing? If you get a yes then be brave and say no. Yourself will thank you for it. If you are a people pleaser it takes time, practice and effort to break the pattern, some won’t like this new version of you, simply for their no longer getting what they want from you. You don’t need to apologise, boundaries aren’t a bad thing they are necessary. They say I’m okay with this yet not this. Be clear where your level of support for another is, and make sure not to cross your own boundary. You are allowed to live your life in a way that feels good for you, don’t be a puppet on a string with everyone else running the show. Changing the pattern is the repair work, showing up differently, learning as you go. Some days you’ll nail it and other days you go what just happened I’ve people pleased again. All has its purpose. Learn from it and watch yourself build stamina over time. Do the inner work 💛 Could you do with an energy healing or balance? Get in touch to make an appointment.
