Aretha sings, we live it. Why is respect so important vital in fact to wholeness, to connectedness to sustainable thriving balanced relationships? It is vital because without it you have trampeling of boundaries, you have loose edges in your world, your conduct and your being. This allows a bleeding through of energy, and an invitation for unsavory and possibly dangerous interaction to occur.
How do we invoke respect and hold it? It starts with you; knowing your truth and claiming it, speaking it all while holding yourself accountable first. When we respect ourselves we set the tone, we learn what it means, the gift it brings, the places it heals and the wealth it bestows.
Restorative, healing integrative wholeness. This field of balance in your energy field is palpable and directly felt by those you are in relationship with as well as those you first meet. The connection you radiate emits its own beacon, its own signal if you will. People read this, they act upon it, they are attracted to or repelled by it whether they understand why or not.
You know it, that funny feeling you get when someone is saying something to you that is not aligned with their actions. Action speaks louder than words.
The way you feel when someone trespasses a personal boundary, violates your space, transgresses in any way your field of personal energy and awareness.
What do you do? Do you speak up or do you allow it to continue by staying silent, do you berate yourself for being weak or are you just bewildered at what to do. The power you have is to choose to respect yourself enough to hold your own, to claim your space, to mark the boundary of what is acceptable conduct. Say it, claim it, speak it, hold it.
It is up to you, only you in fact, to protect and safeguard your boundaries, your energy, your being.
Somebody steps into your space with disrespect, inappropriate conduct or worse….Choose Respect, and say so.
Stand up. Be free in the moment of recognition of your power to say to speak to claim it.
Do it without hesitation and watch your world shift realign and release the attractor factor of those not in accord with that.
Get ready to receive immaculate gifts of deeper resonance, and more profound connection.
