General Talk on Abusive Relationships

Play Episode Listen Later Jul 13, 2019 29:51


Abusive relarionships: you arenot a victim, you just dont realize how strong you truly are. Giving your significant other the.benefit of the douvt, choosing to be patient, and ignoring the warning signs of abuse, chips away of your self confidence. It leads to self doubt, and poor me victim mentality. That is the abuse which steals your positive thinking, zapping you into a weak, and pessimistic person. If you do not heed to the red flags in the beginnings, and nip it in the bud, by holding to the greater version of yourself, then little by little you will chip away at your confidence, self esteem, and accept the story that you cant change.

Not seeing the negative is empowering.

Meditation is the act of not being controlled by the mind, body. In that act, in that practice, the mind body connection refines, free from cyclic habitual thinking no matter.what it is. When that state is reached, the brain/nerves and mind are free. Have you experienced that? Very few have, and fewer do. It isn't a state but a total "being". Until then, the act of meditating is practiced, free from dogma, religion, philosophy, accessory items and behavior that causes one to cling to more cyclic thinking.

Move to what scares you. See the adversity that has already happened, and realize the biggest, greatest of fears has already happened.

It's over, but your mind plays it over and over, validating the experience as a truth that you can't deny. Deny it. It scares, it fears, and that's why you face it, and strip it of power piece by piece.
