How to gain emotional freedom.

Let me give you a hint.

It means that you don’t care.

Sounds a bit callous doesn’t it?

Not caring?

I’m not telling you not to care as in giving compassion to people.

What I’m talking about is this.

Stop caring what people think of you.

If you really want emotional freedom, then stop caring!

Why do we actually care about what others think of us?

How many times have you NOT done something because you thought you may look like an idiot?

Or maybe not worn something because you worried what people would think?

I’ve learnt something really important as I’ve gotten older.

Not to give a flying fuck what people think of me.

With that I have gained true emotional freedom.

I am not going to allow what others may think to dictate to me what I wear and how I act.

When it’s warmer and I’m going to pole dancing, I just walk from the car to the studio in my itty bitty shorts and top.

What makes my heart sad is when at the end of the class, the younger girls all cover up.

When I ask them why, they reply with ‘I don’t want anyone to see me in these shorts’.

Why? Because they think they’re fat.

That’s just so sad that they are allowing their perception of what people are thinking to dictate what they do.

Why do we care what people think of us?

I suppose as humans we desire to be accepted, to fit in, but at what cost to your soul and your self-esteem are you trying to fit in?

All that really matters is what YOU think of you.

Ask yourself this really important question.

The next time you go to limit yourself, I want you to stop and ask yourself this question …..

Are people really thinking about you at all?  Really?

Sure, they might have a fleeting thought of ‘what the fuck was she thinking putting that on’ but that’s it.

They won’t really give you a second thought, yet you are allowing a PERCEIVED idea of what someone else is thinking to limit you.

I mean do you really know what others are thinking?

When you can live your life with no care whatsoever with what others think of you, it is the most freeing thing in the world.

It allows you to live your life the way that you want.

Gives you the emotional freedom that you’re wanting.

Allows you to focus on what makes you happy, not what others think.

Be kind to yourself, you deserve it.

Love & light
