Failing To See The Cues Of Safety

Anxiety Rx

Many of us worriers have a "sunscreen" view of the world in that we block out 99% of the safety that is all around us.

If you can't see and commit to the world as a safe place, of course we are going to stay in ALARM.

If we believe the focus on threat keeps us safe, we will experience the exact opposite!

Previous Episode

Do you allow yourself to RECEIVE?

Do you allow yourself to receive? Or are you doing most of the people pleasing/giving to others?

When we see the world as a place that does not nourish us enough, as was often our childhood circumstance, we learn not to expect the world to help us, and actually CREATE a world that stops feeding us.

We often BLOCK and RESIST any help the world does give us, and then blame the world for not filling our needs... INABILITY TO RECEIVE is a chapter in my book "Anxiety Rx", and if we don't see how we block good things coming to us, we will sabotage our own perception of the world, seeing it as a place where we don't get enough.

But often we do get "enough", but just resist receiving it!
