On Conflict

This was a very interesting day. I felt like I experienced the entire gamut of human emotions. From peace and empowerment all the way to frustration and anger. In the morning I facilitated a leadership retreat; this was well received and for this I was grateful. In the afternoon I found myself losing patience at a meeting where the leader had lost control of the room. Then I returned to work to a very contentious email that sent me into a tailspin. This email felt like the last straw in an ongoing tenuous situation. I sensed that there was a latent historic mom-energy that i was reacting to, mixed in with fear of retribution. TéO I need your help to navigate this. I want to maintain my connection to Source strongly and actively, you can’t allow something like this to consume your mind. Here is where you get to harness your mind and trust. You will rise above, you will see growth. This is for you to see and understand these emotions so you can feel compassion. You feel wronged but she who’s doing wrong is reaching out in a cry for help! Trust yourself to respond accordingly. Maintain your decorum, be professional and TRUST. 

 I meditated and got validation for  the decision to not accept this situation passively, rather to make my case for support with no drama, and to expect support! I felt this deep sense of gratitude and relief come over me. What’s telling is that after that decision to take action on my own behalf, I felt so incredibly light-hearted and playful almost. I’m so grateful to have you with me TéO- this knowledge that if I just trust and pause and be deliberate so that there is space for you to enter and act and guide on my behalf is priceless. It’s wonderful to know I don’t have to make those decisions alone. I don’t have to ask outside myself. I can ask my guides- I can basically trust that I know the answers- because I AM TéO, I AM the one writing, they are not separate from me- they ARE me and I have access to them always and in all ways.
