Living Your Light Benefits Everyone
Time and time again, clients show me their big hearts.
They are engaged, intentional, and supportive. If you need something, they jump in to help. They are pillars of the community, supporting others as parents, friends, family members, teachers, therapists, doctors.
I love working with such big-hearted people. You are all a blessing!
AND ... I see the tremendous burden of this role.
Clients come in feeling depleted, overwhelmed, and on edge. They have 'compassion fatigue'. They work so hard to ‘do it all’, and are feeling the effects.
In sessions and group healings, we acknowledge the dance between helping everyone else and helping ourselves. We navigate the nuance of being selfish and honoring the Self. We always come to the same conclusion:
The best way to help others is to:
Be True to Yourself. Stand in your Power. Live YOUR Light.
It seems counterintuitive. How does helping ourselves help others?
