Free Your Spirit

By Susanne Hartas

Relationships can be loving, wonderful, challenging and complicated.

The soul purpose of experiencing any kind of relationship is to better know and understand oneself. The primary relationship one must focus on and pay attention to is, the relationship with "SELF" first.

Your experience of outer relationships will reflect the relationship you have with self. Low self worth, self-loathing and non-acceptance of one’s self will be mirrored back to you in your relationships. This does not mean however, others do not have there own self worth and self love issues, it only means that what others see in you, they subconsciously see within themselves and react to this energy. Therefore, the greater love and acceptance you have for yourself, the less affected by this energy and less likely you will be to draw this energy toward you.

Be loving and accepting of self and you will create magnetic energy, drawing toward you, loving and fulfilling relationships. It is important to be gentle and kind to yourself. There is neither wrong nor right, there is only learning and growing as you lovingly uncover the layers, and remember the beautiful spirit of you. When you remember the magnificent you, you will reflect on the outside, how you feel about yourself on the inside, and how you relate to others. Affirmations are very powerful tools.

You may like to try practicing daily affirmations while looking in the mirror, (Your name,) " I LOVE AND ACCEPT YOU EXACTLY AS YOU ARE."

We tend to hold onto unforgiveness in relationships, believing it serves to protect us from further hurt. Whether you do this consciously or subconsciously. Holding on to unforgiveness may be slowing your progression to higher enlightenment and only serves to hold you prisoner to your pain and sadness and will hinder you from experiencing the joy and love you deserve.

To release the prisoner within and accelerate your growth, surrender and release unforgiveness. This may seem difficult to imagine doing when there is anger, resentment and sadness within your heart. However, just by holding the intention to forgive and affirming daily, " I RELEASE AND SURRENDER UNFORGIVENESS WITHIN MY HEART" will begin the process of lightening your heart.

It is not necessary to forgive the personality or the act of another; it is only necessary to forgive their spirit.

Take back your power, free yourself and allow your heart to expand and be filled with joy, love and light.
