RELEASING ATTACHMENT

RELEASING ATTACHMENT

As I continue to take on more clients and allow for the growth of increasing business, a new website, and of course, the fresh interactive Facebook page, I am gently reminded of what comes with it all; Limelight. A shiny spotlight and magnifying glass was something I was once comfortable under 7 years ago, but these days I tend to shy away from "too much attention." However, with that being said, I must come to terms and accept that with the launch of Zen Tribe Guide will come a flood of clients and opinions.

My only responsibility to world is that I always remain in alignment. What does that mean? For me it means being in harmony with the Universe, living my truth, and staying focused on the job in front of me. I have truly begun to master the ability to allow for an opinion to be shared with me, and then after, I release it back into the atmosphere. I actually enjoy the various different perspectives other's have on things and find it intriguing to metaphorically try on their "glasses" to see what they see and how they see it. Empathy and insight come easy for me, but learning how to disconnect typically does not. While I still value the opinion of other's, I am able to remember that at the end of the day, it belongs to them only. An opinion is based off SELF. A personal filter on how you see something, usually reflecting off emotional baggage and/or past experiences you have accumulated along the way.

The magic really takes place when you are able to release attachment to not just the negative opinions of others, but the positive too. Insults and complaints may have a different vibration than praise and admiration, but the one thing that that all have in common when being presented to you, is that it is being present TO you, not from within you. Separate yourself from YOU and NOT YOU. That is advice I not only dish out, but also personally practice.
