On HSP's Empowerment and Finding Belonging and a Sense of Home – Conversation with Grace Kerina
So many sensitives struggle with feeling different and finding that sense of belonging, a sense of home. Some of us move around, escape, or make other lifestyle changes, such as becoming spiritual, and always seeking something. I’ve seen this happening amongst many HSPs and intuitive people, and I’ve noticed that there is wisdom guiding these changes.
I just had a new guest on my RUclips / Podcast and it was a delight to talk about some very interesting subjects relative to our seeking nature.
In this episode my amazing guest, Grace Kerina, shares her empowering thoughts on boundaries, finding an authentic sense of self, and other lessons from navigating her life as a creative, highly sensi...

Absorbing Energies as Highly Sensitive Person, INFJ, or Empath
Просмотров 52814 дней назад
Highly Sensitive People, INFJs and Empaths have an unconscious radar going on all the time and scan the environment to make sure they're in control. Unfortunately being so open makes them overwhelmed in return. Not only this safety radar doesn't bring the desired effects, it exposes HSPs to feel more unsafe and in a perpetual fight-flight mode. Today I describe this mechanism and how you can tr...
HSPs, INFJs and Criticism Sensitivity

I've heard many complains that express how deeply triggering it can be for HSPs, Empaths, or INFJs to hear negative words about their performance or ideas.

    You're doing ground breaking work here. Having been in this body for 61 years as an INFJ/HSP, I don't understand why I haven't figured some of this stuff out myself. And I don't understand what kind of mind it takes to come to the realizations that you're expressing. Very enlightened. I recently destroyed another relationship as a result of overthinking. This is the first time it's really sunk in that my overthinking is a big part of the problem in so many of my relationships.

      Overthinking is not a fault. It's a tendency we can learn to grow from. Eventually, the way INFJs are designed gives them an enormous power that's hidden under the mind-body disconnection. I hope you'll stick around for videos and more insights. Best wishes! Gosia

    As an INFJ, HSP and empath I have always hated being treated like a child even when I was a child. My parents wanted me to go to Sunday School but I could not stomach the thought of some stupid sky daddy looking down on everyone so I didn't go. My biggest problem with this reality is dealing with immaturity. Most people are manipulated and exploited by religion or political parties because they are unconscious robots conditioned by group think. However my greatest teacher was my mother who suffered from paranoid schizophrenia and was an alcoholic. I learned indirectly from her the greatest lesson "people behave the way they do for a reason". The sad part for me is realizing I can't do anything about how people behave even when they are self-destructive or extremely manipulated by power structures within this reality.

    Tell me why does our life has to be so hard. Why can't we just enjoy life and be normal. We constantly have to try and figure ourselves out, our childhood, our parents, our trauma, why we do this, and that. Why we never feel good enough...etc. we're always researching digging, trying to slove ourselves and learn about ourselves and others or their behaviors towards us. Why can't we have peace. Why can't we live in harmony. Ppl ask me what I want in life, and my answer has always been to be at peace with me. I'm 50. I'm so frekin tire. I just want to go and live off the grid and be by myself.

    Hi Gosia. This might not be the place to talk from a Human Design point of view but I think it crosses over with what you’re explaining here. Last night I dreamt that my scalp pulled apart down the middle (sorry if this is sounding a bit ‘horror movie’). It wasn’t frightening in any way but it left my head exposed. It took me a while to realise it was referring to my HD Open Mind and how thoughts that may not even be my own come into the Mind and kind of get caught there, buzzing around unable to get out or settle and for sure I make other people’s problems my own. I can see how the strength of my unexpressed emotions as a child would have pushed me to find a mental solution, even though there is none. I know when this gets ‘bad’ because I talk out loud to myself, repeating over and again the same problem and why it’s not fair on me. Appreciating my emotions and their process is helping me to balance this. 🙏❤️

      Hey Alan. Thank you for your sharing. Lately, I've received a couple more messages that there is a crossover between what I teach and HD. This coincided with my own insight after watching a video by Maggie Ostara. Although I don't know much about the details of HD, it's now clear to me that the stuff that I've come to realize are very similar to those in HD, mainly the moving from conditioned mind into the wisdom our our bodies and the intuitions that speaks through them. In my view, this brings so much liberation, sovereignty, and alignment .... so I agree with you. I'm actually in the process of getting a HD teacher in for an interview. And yes, I resonate with all the buzzing, intensity, and even talking to myself. These were my experiences, too. I'm still finding ways to better articulate my findings, but I'm glad it resonated. 🙏✨️ thank you

      @@gosiaporaj Hi. I will have a look for her videos. HD is all about taking the decision making away from the mind and into the body and that although the body is considered the keeper of consciousness it is, and remains, unconscious to ‘us’ and so we have to find ways to hear what it’s saying and to allow it to guide us in the best direction for us. For me (and you) it’s through our emotions and that fits in with what you say on your video. For me in childhood the emotions were pushed down and the head forced to make decisions, something it’s not capable of or designed for.

      Yes, OK. I understand. So in that respect, my work is exactly about teaching a person do that. To decondition from using thought process for everything > to using wisdom that runs through the body. I don't believe that the body is the keeper of consciousness per se, but it is a conduit through which we communicate with a higher intelligence and connect with the world. The body is a tool that helps us be in the physical world as a spiritual being. The thinking mind is an important tool for discernment, but only when it's used with clarity. I mean to get more into understanding HD because it seems that my work would be helpful for all those who are using HD but can't connect with themselves outside of meditation and alone moments. Thanks so much for your thoughtful comments. Who is your favourite HD teacher?

    Hi. I don’t know if this relates to me but I find it interesting. Someone called me an Empath and I thought, Oh no! I don’t want that 😂. I have convinced myself that I lean towards selfishness and yet I’ve often been supportive in different ways and yet feel guilty and sometimes ashamed when I do things for myself. Sometimes it’s been financial support and recently someone said I’m good for “holding space” for those I care about. This was a compliment for sure but I can’t tell if I’ve overdone this and overlooked what I want. For an Empath finding the balance between care for ourselves and for ‘the Other’. I know my ‘status’ as a ‘guilt sponge’. If someone is unhappy it’s either my fault, or it’s my job to make things good for them. A Selfish Empath!? 😅 Huh. What do you know, there is something here for me. Thank you 🙏 Insecure and yet I have a Defined Will Centre

    • @gosiaporaj
      @gosiaporaj 2 месяца назад

      I remember when I heard about Empaths the first time, I was convinced it was some BS.. haha. But now I definitely know it's a thing. And I agree, it's not the easiest thing to "be". The funny thing is kind of what you described, that many empaths are full of contradictions, that's why many might doubt. Anyhow I'm glad it resonated. And like you, I've defined will centre and used to be super insecure. It is my sense that willpower takes us sometimes too far into various directions. Just because we can. When we exhaust the energy, but still used to using willpower, we don't know where to get energy from to do even basic things. We need to have the flexibility and trust to work with the universe. It helps conserve energy. Connecting with my body and becoming more defined helped be claim my "bigness". Even if I'm still just 160 cm ;) Thanks, Alan for dropping by with a nice reflection.🙏

Dealing with people always feels really stimulating for me in a way that I feel the need to make myself small or withdraw back into my shell. Being an INFJ, my first tendency was to figure it out in my mind and change my mindset, and as you said that has definitely helped but it’s not the complete solution. How my mind and body reacts in these situations is still something I’m working on. Thank you for the insights! ❤

      Absolutely! These habits are so ingrained. And you have the best raw material - a sharp mind and high sensitivity. The path is to have them work together. Your awareness of doing what you observed is a great milestone on that path.

    Claim your personal autonomy, and the prison of timidity and neurotic boundary fears become irrelevant. Be a tiger!

    🤯 Thank you for connecting these dots between disembodiment and the tendency to retreat into the mind. This is spot on of my own experience with being an HSP/INFJ/Empath. I have been working towards trying to set boundaries and am still struggling with social anxiety in large groups. So much so that I have been prescribed beta blockers to avoid fight/flight symptoms in my body like racing heart, changes in how my voice sounds, shaking hands, etc. I thought that I knew what it meant to have self awareness, but after watching your video, I can finally see that I am stuck in my mind and ignoring my physicality/physical aspect while I'm in these situations. I'm looking forward to bringing this new knowledge with me into my next group experience. I'm interested to see what changes I can make and if I'll be more skilled at setting boundaries in the moment with more difficult/intrusive individuals.

      Thank you for sharing! You have just described what so many Empaths, HSPs, and INFJs feel. I know how this is debilitating also from my own experience. I'm sure you'll get more insights and healing as you go. Best wishes
