A Lesson from Duck….

Today I am grateful for the slings and arrows from others, as they offer me the opportunity to strengthen my core sense of self.

Most of the time, the attacks and criticisms of others have much more to do with them and how they are feeling than with us.

Just remember if you get caught up trying to adjust yourself to other people’s negative energy, you lose touch with your own core.

It’s a priority not to take criticisms or attacks into your heart space, with practice we learn to dodge and deflect other peoples misdirected negativity.

The more we do this, the more we are able to discern what belongs to us and what belongs to other people.

With practice, we become masters of our energetic integrity, refusing to serve as targets for the disowned anger and frustration of the people around us.

When we make like a duck, shaking it off and letting it roll off our back as we continue our way in the world.
