Description
If you’ve ever had challenges with other people in your life, especially parents, you will identify with this episode. On some level, we choose our parents to be our spiritual teachers. Being close becomes complicated as we transition from being a child to being an adult.
Listen in as Jessica is feeling conflicted between wanting to live her own life and wanting her parents approval.
Consider/Ask Yourself:
Can you relate to wanting to please people you love?
Do you feel obligated to do what your parents want from you?
Do you feel guilty if you don’t do what is expected of you?
Jessica’s Question:
Jessica’s conservative parents get mad, impose guilt trips and cause her stress when she talks about her boyfriend, who has a daughter. She would like insights on how to hold on to her relationship and respect her parents feelings.
Jessica’s Key Insights and Aha’s:
● It’s her time to have a relationship
● She allows her parents to emotionally manipulate her
How to get over it and on with it:
● Be ok with your parents not being ok with your life
● Don’t be ruled by fear
● Take a break - try a 30-day hiatus
● Be clear about what you are willing to do for relationships
● Send your parents love and light
● Take responsibility for your own inner experience
Tools and Takeaways:
● Keep a picture of your loved ones and send them love and light every day
● During meditation have your higher-self speak with their higher-self
● Keep choosing love
