This message is such a great reminder that we all have something going on.
.
One of the things we talk about a lot in Reiki sessions is - when others say or do things to hurt us, we need to realize that they are projecting something that is going on in their own life. (This is especially hard with people we love and care for)
.
If we can disconnect from the emotions of the situation, it can help us make the decision that works best for us. These different methods can be — to not react, create distance from the other person, create boundaries, to not give to make others feel good if it is not making you feel good, etc -- It takes a bit of practice to do each of these things, but the first step is being aware of the situation and be aware of how you are responding.
