Welcome back to The becoming the big knee podcast. I'm your host
Speaker:Djemilah Birnie and you are tuning into minute madness a
Speaker:little dose of epicness delivered in five minutes or
Speaker:less.
Speaker:If you can guys Djemilah Birnie here. And today I wanted to talk
Speaker:to you about your emotions and your feelings that don't belong
Speaker:to you Do you know that you are carrying around other people's
Speaker:feelings, other people's baggage, other people's emotions
Speaker:with you, every single day.
Speaker:Everywhere that you go, every person that you interact with,
Speaker:you are picking up a little bit of their energy, a little bit of
Speaker:their energy is seeping off, and you're absorbing it. I know,
Speaker:you've heard of the phrase about a smile and how it's contagious
Speaker:and how a smile can just spread across the whole room, you
Speaker:smile, someone sees you smiling, they start smiling, someone else
Speaker:starts smiling. While this is happening, with all of your
Speaker:emotions, with all of your feelings and your energy. Now
Speaker:smile, you can see. So it's a little bit easier to kind of
Speaker:track. But this is happening with the things that you can't
Speaker:see as well. So everyone that you interact with every person
Speaker:that you allow into your energy space, you are picking up a
Speaker:little bit of their energy, you're picking up just a little
Speaker:bit of their stuff. So by the end of the day, you're just like
Speaker:walking around, carrying just like, all this luggage over
Speaker:stuff, and it doesn't even belong to you. Right? So
Speaker:how do you know how do you know like, and I feel is this
Speaker:feeling? Does it belong to me? Or does it belong to someone
Speaker:else? Well, the way that you're going to discern what emotions
Speaker:belong to you, and what emotions belong to someone else is by
Speaker:giving yourself space. By giving yourself space to reflect. This
Speaker:is one of the reasons why I believe it is so important to
Speaker:put your phone away an hour, two hours before you go to bed, no
Speaker:technology, you got to shut it off, you got to stop allowing
Speaker:the world other people, the collective into your space so
Speaker:that you can give yourself that time to really process your own
Speaker:stuff and process. Okay, what did I pick up today? What did I
Speaker:pick up alone? My way? What am I now carrying around with me?
Speaker:That doesn't belong to me. Take this time to ground yourself, to
Speaker:speak to yourself to take out your journal, and reflect on
Speaker:what it is that you're feeling where you might have picked up
Speaker:these feelings. If there's not a reason behind it, guess what,
Speaker:it's probably not yours, probably someone else's. And you
Speaker:just picked it up. Like we already have enough stuff to
Speaker:carry around. I don't know about you, but I've got a heavy enough
Speaker:load on my own. I don't need to be adding way of other people's
Speaker:emotional baggage onto my psyche. So are you carrying
Speaker:around other people's emotions? Is that feeling that you're
Speaker:feeling doesn't even belong to you? Or does it belong to
Speaker:someone else? Take the time, give yourself space to
Speaker:completely shut off from the outside stimulus. Because guess
Speaker:what, most people don't give themselves that space. And then
Speaker:they're just constantly being bombarded by all of these
Speaker:opinions, all of these thoughts, all of these things from the
Speaker:outside world from social media, just like constantly their
Speaker:friends and family, just like yeah, and then you don't even
Speaker:have time to process your own stuff. You're just picking up
Speaker:everybody else's stuff. And you're having to carry all of
Speaker:their stuff. How are you going to be able to process your
Speaker:stuff. So
Speaker:give yourself time. Take a break. Put away all the
Speaker:technology in the morning. In the evening, give yourself a
Speaker:time if you can't do an hour, do half an hour if you can't do
Speaker:half an hour do 10 minutes. Whatever you can do is going to
Speaker:help it's going to help you process now I highly suggest you
Speaker:do an hour before you go to bed and an hour when you wake up in
Speaker:the morning so you can center yourself and really understand
Speaker:what is your feelings? What are your thoughts? What is it? What
Speaker:are your intentions for the day? What do you need to carry? Stop
Speaker:carrying out other people's crap.
