Human Design for Healthy Boundaries
Have you noticed what happens when there is a feeling of boundaries being crossed? How many times do we go against our inner authorities, or what feels correct for us, and say ‘yes' to something where there either isn’t real recognition or we don’t actually have energy to give?
Even when it’s just for little things, each time we do something that our discernment is telling us to not do, not only is it depleting our energy, but it’s also making us less energetically available for what will bring satisfaction, success, peace or surprise to find us.
Human Design is an incredible system that helps us see how our energy dynamics function and gives us practical tools that can help us build trust with our own Inner Authorities.
Have you ever agreed to do something that actually isn’t feeling aligned? What happens? Not only are we left feeling bitter, frustrated, angry or disappointed, but this can also unconsciously bring up rock solid walls around us in attempts to protect from anything at all getting in; including the things that will bring us success, satisfaction, peace and surprise.
Every time we sacrifice ourselves in attempt to please someone else, we either weaken ourselves and put up higher and higher walls instead of honoring our ‘no’s’ or become desensitized to our no’s and take in situations that are not supportive and potentially harmful.
Our homogenized society has praised this idea of selflessness, but can we take care of anyone else if we are not taking care of ourselves? If our energy is being expended in ways that deplete instead of nourish, can the energy continue to give?
If we honor our Inner Authorities from a place of radical self-love and acceptance and only enter into engagements where our energy lights up or we feel recognized simply for being ourselves and for what we are able to share with the other; does that energy and recognition continue to feed and nourish us so we can continue to get stronger, shine brighter and give more?
When we honor the wisdom of our Inner Authority while experimenting with Human Design; the authority is empowered to continue to send out clearer and clearer messages. This can help us to trust in our discernment and ability to meet life as it comes to us without feeling like we need to run and hide. When we are confident in our ability to say both ‘yes’ and ‘no’ depending on our Inner Authorities, we have a solid foundation from which we can answer life’s questions.
Healthy boundaries and discernment are super supportive to our life process. However, solid walls that keep out both the supportive and the harmful are not conducive to our experience of being consciousness in form. Openness with discernment, this is the magic.
Are you ready to experiment with Human Design as a tool to build trust in and re-empower your Inner Authority?
