ep.20 - Protection vs. Rejection

Welcome back to another episode of Spiritual Fitness. In this episode we are going to dive a bit further into the lack of communicating our needs as it relates to the fear of rejection. Definitely the BIGGEST thing many of us would do anything to avoid... REJECTION. Learning to work WITH and through rejection is CRITICAL to self-growth and development. This episode goes into discovery of why we reject others and how to NOT take rejection as such a horrific event. The whole idea of holding the mirror up in front of ourselves, instead of saying the world is rejecting us, to see what we maybe rejecting in ourselves. Can you FLIP THE COIN and realize at times when you reject others, it is because you are setting a boundary for yourself. In most cases, in some way shape or form, looking out for yourself can come off as rejection to the other person. Ask yourself, each time you have rejected a person were you doing it because there was a behavior happening that you could not allow? TOPIS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: 🎯The idea that rejection, can be viewed as setting a hard boundary to protect oneself, often it can be that simple 🎯Setting a boundary in hopes to look out for your own well-being; not so much to hurt another. 🎯Choosing discernment in order to claim what we deserve. 🎯Removing attachment to desired outcomes of why someone may reject or protect in their own decisions. 🎯Doing your best to honor and respect the choices of others just as we should do the same for ourselves. When we don’t get so caught up in ALL THE LITTLE details from point A to point B, we free ourselves from emotional expectations and allow for ourselves to accept things as they are. We don’t have the right to know everybody’s reasons for protection. They may have stories and hurt feelings they have yet to acknowledge which need to be healed. As a loving caring person of human nature, one can hold compassion for another who is looking to protect themselves.
