Believing that we don’t Matter

Mondays with Mike Episode 36

How painful and self-separated we feel when we are believing that we don’t matter.

This is an emotional session for me, Harmony.

I go slow and deep, not just talking about painful emotions, but actually experiencing them in the moment, within the safety of MIke’s caring. He accompanies me with warmth and resonance.

And With this support, I find the safety and holding I need in order to express, grieve, process, and experience resolution

The camera was accidentally set to capture only Mike’s presence on the video.

But maybe this was actually providential, because we get to see just how Mike shows his caring attentiveness, which signals to me that he is friendly empathic ally, and enables me to share my raw self so openly and vulnerably.

HEALING THE WOUND OF NON-SUPPORT

We must receive support before we can ever give it Many of us were born and raised in homes where we did not receive the support we really needed in order to feel safe, seen, grounded, and valued. For whatever reasons, our parents and families and perhaps even our communities were unable to give us enough responsive attention for us to anchor a feeling of being empowered and supported into our Beings. Because we did not receive this support for our very Being, our essence, we came to distrust ourselves and those around us. We became unable to receive support, even when it was sincerely offered.

Since we couldn’t receive support, we reasoned, maybe we didn’t need it. We managed for quite some time in this way. But we found that we were unable to feel totally at ease with ourselves and ...

Living with Emotional intensity and remaining Anchored

As a Highly Sensitive Empath, I can easily over identify with another’s emotional state. Attuning to others is automatic for me. Yet I easily fall into others’ emotions, losing myself, losing my own emotional balance and losing perspective. It’s not comfortable nor sustainable. I’ve uncovered an intuitive and instinctive ability that lets me stay connected and present, highly attuned, yet not over-identified with, or engulfed by my own, or others’ emotional states. I’m able to be aware of and witness difficult or intense emotional states, without being overcome or unbalanced. I remain alert, yet relaxed. I don’t get activated into fight or flight. I’m able to ride these states without being thrown. I’d love to share this ability with you, and show you how to access it for yourself. If you could have access to a simple subtle practice that would moderate and eventually free you from emotional roller coaster-ing, yet allow you to have fully alive, emotionally connected, ...
