One of my friends calls shame, “the biggest interference on the planet at this time!”
I think that speaks volumes.
What does shame interfere with?
- Knowing the essence of our being is love and peace
- Being able to forgive self for mistakes
- Being able to forgive others for mistakes
- Extending love
- Living in a peaceful space with ourselves and others
- Knowing our rights and other peoples’ rights
- Being in the now
- Taking responsibility for our choices and being able to change our minds and choose again
- Basic trust
- Basic compassion
This is just the beginning of what shame interferes with. However, if you look at the list I have started you will see that what shame interferes with is what is good and what would move our world in the direction of healing.
Namaste
Thanks so much for pointing our the specifics of the interferences. Sometimes its hard to know, since shame’s shenanigans can be so sneaky! Great stuff!
