Disturbing emotions…

By admin | Juli 22, 2009

… are nearly always the „construction site“ of the one who faces them.

You’ll know that, the identic situation coming up, can either make you smile or getting angry, depending on your basic mood before, resp. referring to your own balance. A little difficulty, as an example while cooking dinner, faced being very hungry, can lead into a strong dispute with your partner, child or friend, but must not.

You can learn to realize your disturbing emotions as indications -you could ask yourself how you went into this. Probably in this example you’ve been the one who didnt care about yourself the whole day, you forgot breakfast and lunch, you haven’t been aware about your needs. The indication you get out of it – Be aware of your needs.

Another expamle: One of your friends calls in often in the evening, when you just sat down for dinner after a long busy day. Several times you told him seven to eight p.m. is your family hour, but he/she doesnt listen or respect your indication. If you go ahead answering incoming calls in „your hour“ you give wrong indications by the difference between talking and doing – how can he/she learn patience or awareness if you don’t set your limits ?

In this situation he/she might get into disturbing emotions, cause you take care for yourself, but this time it is his/her „construction site“ – not yours.

Try to learn how to make a distinction. If it’s your disturbing emotion -find the indication inside – if it’s the one of someone else – either leave it with him, or help him to see his indication or lesson.

    Thanks Petra for your precious lines – just came here through your tweet. And I can confirm – it´s one of the most exciting processes to view „Störgefühle“ – and learn to let them go.

    Find your pure nature – and listen to your inner self.

    Liebe Grüsse vom See, c.
