My Biggest Block: People Pleasing External Validation- as my Picture uploads show-
Why is this block preventing you from raising your vibration? Because if my vibration relies on external validation, it is dependent on something outside of my control.
If my self worth hangs on :
- Being needed
- Being useful
- Being the rescuer
- Being the teacher
- Being the helper
- Being the one who can solve it - this is a big one. With great knowledge comes great responsibility- and what if it's not mine to do?
What is the payoff from having this block?
The payoff is feeling safe.
I spent years identifying as:
- The fixer
- The advocate
- The one who carries everything
- The one who must push through
- The one who survives impossible situations- It's exhausting.
How can you raise your vibration and remove these blocks?
There's a step in AA called Drop the Rock. I can drop the rock.
I think - Recognition and intention, creating new routines that help me and hopefully what I learn here will also help.
What is your biggest improvement from removing these blocks?
My biggest improvement is that I have more capacity, peace, and self-trust. Instead of managing everyone else's needs and expectations, I am learning to steward my own energy. Kinda Like I act as steward on our Homestead...
I no longer need to earn my worth through over-giving. I can create boundaries, choose alignment, and invest my energy where it creates the greatest good. As a result, I have more energy to build my sanctuary, support my health, nurture meaningful relationships, and share my work from a place of abundance rather than depletion.
And right now, to honor my alarm that is telling me to follow my natural Ultradian rhythms. It's time for a break! Even though I get such pleasure from hyper-focus and feeling like I've solved a problem.
