there was a point where I couldn’t tell what was mine anymore. my emotions, my energy, even my mood as I walked into a room. I just felt everything and I had literally no idea how much of it was actually ME.
it wasn’t until I got distance from certain people and places that I started to realize what was actually happening. things that once felt so heavy and consuming just started to lift…. and I was like ohhhhh hmm that wasn’t even mine lol
I always felt things differently depending on who was around me. some people left me feeling like my whole body was congested, some people left me completely hollow and floaty, I couldn’t explain why, I just knew I needed to go be alone, crawl into the comfort of my safe space, and recover.
for a long time I thought I was too much. too emotional, too sensitive, too intense. but little did I know, I wasn’t too much. I was just wide open with no protection and no way back to myself. I always think of it like I was holding onto a tree branch with a single string as I drifted into the clouds.
spiritual hygiene changed that for me. learning to come back to myself,my own energy, protect it and clear what isn’t mine. third eye work has been a hugeeee part of that because when everything outside of me is loud I need to be able to hear myself. I need to bring myself back down to earth, and stand on two feet.
this is me tending to that with my lil third eye ritual candle made by yours truly ✨
if any of this sounds familiar you’re not too much, never were, never will be too much. Learning what’s yours to hold, to carry, is a journey I’ve traveled for years, and continue to do so. I understand it all.
