“I Don’t Care If Your Father Is In Hospital!”

As I have said in a previous article, my father had to go into hospital in the middle of 2011, and this was a time when I was under a lot of stress. My mother had had a stroke the previous year and soon my life would change once again. During the time that my father was in hospital, I would help to run our family guest house when I wasn’t at work. I had a lot going on at this time, and this helped to keep my mind off what was taking place. At Other Times

True-Self: Is It Harder For Someone To Express Their True-Self When They Are Emotionally Dependent?

In order for someone to be able to fulfil their needs, they will need to be in touch with them. But that’s not to say that this is all there is to it, as one will also need to feel as though it is safe enough for them to fulfil them. The Two Levels It could be said that, as a human being, one of their greatness needs will be to feel safe, and once they feel this way, it will allow them to fulfil their so-called higher needs. However, if one generally feels safe, this is not going to be something that they will need to think about.

“You Need Therapy!”

Shorty after I left where I was working in 2012, I felt overwhelmed with stress and emotional pain. Due to this, I head back to the spiritual shop where I had had a reading a little while before, and I spoke to the owner. Her name was Sheila, and she was down to earth, genuine and supportive. I think I opened up to her about what I was going through and she recommended a woman who did Reiki healing. Something Different

Communication: Where Can Someone Improve Their Conversational Skills?

Although someone may have the desire to improve their conversational skills, it doesn’t mean that they will know what to do next. If they were to think about what they can do to make progress in this area of their life, their mind could end up going blank. One thing that they could do is to look for information online. This could be a time when one will pick up a few tips that they will be able to implement in their day-to-day life. Ready

True-Self: Why Do Some People Only Feel Safe When They Are Playing A Role?

Although there are going to be moments in someone’s life when they will need to be serious, they won’t need to behave in this way all the time. Along with this, one will need to be easy going at times, and at other times, they will need to be firm. Multifaceted Ultimately, how one will need to behave can all depend on what kind of environment they are in and what the context is. Yet, as they are going to have more than one side to their nature, it is not going to be a challenge for them to adapt and to change their behaviour.

Critical Thinking: Why Do So Many Men Follow Female Models Online?

There are quite possibly hundreds, if not thousands, of female models who share pictures of themselves online. And just as there are a number of these models online, there are also going to be a number of reasons as to why a woman would want to live her life in this way. For one woman, this could primarily be a way for her to express herself, while for another; this could primarily be a way for her to silence the voice within her that says that she is not enough. Both of these women, then, are going to be coming from a radically different place. A Small Part

Fathers: Does A Father Play An Important Role In A Child's Development?

It has been widely reported that a lot of children are now growing up without a father, and this is in addition to the adults who also grew up without one. There are, of course, a number of reasons as to why this is the case. Firstly, moral decay has led to an increase in hedonism, which has resulted in the decline of personal responsibility. If, then, a man has a child/children and the relationship is not going well, he could just end up disappearing without feeling the need to play his part. Another Part

People Pleasing: Is Someone More Likely To Please Others If They Are Emotionally Dependent?

In order for someone to live a fulfilling life, there are going to be at last two things that will need to be in place. On the one hand, they will need to be aware of their needs, and on the other; they will need to feel safe enough to fulfil them. From here, one will have the ability to behave in a way that is in alignment with their true-self. This can then allow them to move towards their goals and to achieve what they want to achieve.

Self-Worth: How Can People Who Are Attractive Act Confident Even Though They Feel Worthless?

When someone is in touch with their inherent value, it is going to be a lot easier for them to act in a confident manner. For one thing, they are not going to feel as though they have anything to hide. The Truth Deep down, they will realise that who they are is enough, and this will allow them to express their true-self. Consequently, how they come across is generally going to be a reflection of who they are.

Child Abuse: Is It A Surprise That Some Parents Deny They Were Abusive?

If someone comes to see that their early years were a time when they were not treated very well, there are a number of things that can take place. Firstly, they can start to think about what they can do to heal the damage that was caused, and, secondly, they can have the need to talk about what took place with their parents. There is also the chance that they haven’t even thought about what they can do to heal themselves. In this case, their need to talk to their parents about what happened could consume them.

Critical Thinking: Is The Establishment Only Interested In Silencing Dissenters?

A little while ago, three public figures tried to enter the UK, only to end up behind bars for a few days. These people were seen as a threat due to the views that they had, and this meant that they had to go somewhere else once they were released. An Odd Scenario If this is taken at face value, it can sound as though the people in power were simply looking out for their fellow human beings. Their main job, after all, is to protect the citizens who give them the money and the power to do what they do.

Free Speech: Does The Attack On Free Speech Show How Feminized The Western World Has Become?

While men are a physical expression of the masculine and women are a physical expression of the feminine, it doesn’t mean that each sex only has masculine or feminine traits within them. Now, this is not to say that each person on this planet is made up of half of one side and half of the other. A Big Difference It would be easy to say that men are more masculine on the inside and women are more feminine on the inside. The reason this is easy to say is that it doesn’t require much thought.

“You Are Always Happy!”

During the time when my father was in hospital, towards the end of 2011, I did my best to carry on as normal. This would typically mean that I would act as though I was happy and that everything was fine. But as I had been this way for most of my life, it wasn’t as if I was doing anything new; it was simply business as usual. This meant that there were a number of people where I worked who were not aware of what I was going through. A Select Few

Emotionally Dependent: Do Some People's Childhoods Set Them Up To Be Emotionally Dependent On Others?

In order for someone to be able to express their true-self, it will be essential for them to be an integrated human being. What this means is that their mind (thoughts), heart (emotions) and body (instincts) will generally work together. Through being this way, they will be in touch with their needs and they will be able to go about fulfilling them. There will be no reason for them to focus solely on other people’s needs and to do what they can to please them. Boundaries

Are You Relying On Luck To Get What You Want?

When I used to go to different bars and clubs on a regular basis many, many years ago, there were often men who would talk about how they hoped to ‘get lucky’. Sometimes I knew the people who would say this and, at other times, this was something that I would overhear. To these men, it was as though they didn’t have any control over whether or not they would attract a woman. It was something that was completely out of their hands, which was why they had to get lucky. Another Example

Don’t Make Another Person The Centre Of Your World

When I was reading the book, ‘Feel The Fear And Do It Anyway’, there was a chapter that went into how important it was to have many different areas of interest in life, and not to put all our eggs in one basket, so to speak. The author, Susan Jeffers, pointed out that a lot of people make their partner the centre of their life.

Energetic Abuse: Can Someone Energetically Abuse Another Person?

If one was asked to talk about what abuse looks like, they may say that this is what happens when someone is put down, hit, sexually taken advantage of, or emotionally invalidated. When something like this takes place, it will be clear that someone is not being treated in the right way. At the same time, even though all of these behaviours are expressions of abuse, it wouldn’t be right to say that it will always be clear that this is the case. One reason for this is that if someone has been treated badly for a very long time, they may have become accustomed to being treated in this way.r

Living In The Mind Leads To A Very Unstable Existence

After a conversatio I had with someone the other day, it made me think about how different it is to live in the body compared with the mind. In a way, living in the mind is similar to being on a bouncy castle, while living in the body is similar to being a tree. The reason for this is that the mind is unstable and is unable to live in the now; it doesn’t have the ability to experience stability or to be present. On the other hand, the body is stable and in the now, and is not thrown around by anything or caught up in what may or may not happen. A Big Difference

The Healing Power Of Presence

Earlier on, whilst I was out running, I was reflecting on how important presence is when it comes to healing. It is important in all areas, of course, but this was the area that I primarily thought about. For example, when a healer has been able to let in a certain amount of presence (I say let in as presence is always there and not something we develop), they will be able to be present with a client. This is likely to be a time when try will be connected to their heart, as opposed to being caught up in their head. Transformation

Authority Figures: Do Some Peoples Childhoods Set Them Up To Have Trouble With Authority Figures?

If someone was to reflect on how they behave when they are in the presence of an authority figure, they may find that they are typically able to hold their own. This will mean that, in general, they won’t retract and neither will they have the need to take up too much space. In other words, they will feel comfortable enough to be themselves. Being this way is going to allow them to be in their own power and it may even cause the other person to warm to them. An Incentive

However, not only can this be something that other people are unaware of, one could also be unaware of it.

Or, they could say that they are pretty normal, not overly fearful nor confident. Out of Nowhere

“I Thought I Just Lacked Confidence!”

When I was younger, I often found it hard to behave how I wanted to behave, and I was often described as being ‘shy’. This was something my mother would say, and there were moments when other people would say the same thing. During this time in my life, my emotions were frequently out of control and I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t realise this at the time, though, as I would just end up feeling overwhelmed; I didn’t really know what emotions were at this stage of my life. Conflict
