Thoughts On Not Covering Our Darkness with Love and Light

How are your heart, mind and body doing?

I spent this week 3 relaxing days in the Swiss Mountains (Engadin) and it was magical. It feels like coming home: The spaciousness, climate, air, food, nature.It really feeds you on a different level.

Something I’ve been pondering about:

What happens if we don’t escape parts of ourselves that we dislike?

What if we become honest with how destructive we act sometimes?

What if we don’t try to cover what feels off about ourselves with blaming others (aka “you’re triggered/I’m triggered jargon), defending ourselves, distracting ourselves or trying to cover it up with light and love?

What if we actually would tell ourselves what behaviours we find shitty and then start changing it.

I’ve seen people blaming pyschotherapists for why people circle around the same topics without deep change…well it’s not therapy, it’s being human and to be honest, I see it in spiritual circles and modalities as well.

Some love and light therapists will cover up your darkness by telling you, that the other person is just not as conscious or “toxic” but what if we’re toxic? What if it’s up to us to make a change or be honest or apologize?

We can always circle around anything and everyone BUT we can also choose not to and then not loading ourselves with shame, guilt and negative thoughts is equally important. It’s not always the others, sometimes it’s us and that’s worth adressing in life as it drives our choices and thoughts.
