If you are feeling the weight of the world polluting your peace and sanity, you're not alone and you're not crazy. Many of us feel the fatigue in our eyes, our skin, and definitely our social media. We are living under a sky that looks like Armageddon, we have hurricanes and natural disasters in the weirdest places, and the police are on an unchecked killing spree.
Is it even possible to go through this time with EASE and with our head held high? Yes, but we need to get some pieces in place.
This week, Dr. Venus talks about spiritual/emotional/mental fatigue. How to recognize it, move it out of your body, and claim your peace — the ultimate power.
Key Takeaways:
[4:34] In doing this week's powerful exercise, there is no judgement. The more you can be honest with yourself, the more your own truth will come out of your body and onto the page, and the better you will feel.
Exercise: Get a pen and a piece of paper, and make three columns. Name each of the columns:
And then under each of the columns, make a list pertaining to that feeling. The key is to write it down. Here are some examples:
Spiritual Fatigue: what is making you exhausted? Robbing you of your energy? Making you feel doubtful about your connection with the universe or your own faith?
Emotional Exhaustion: How are your emotions? Are they up and down? Angry one minute and hopeful the next? Sad? Mad? Write it all down.
Mental Burnout: What is the conversation like in your mind? Are you thinking the same endless chatter? Or judgements like, this shouldn't be or this is wrong or this should NOT be happening?
[9:37] Next, write down the answer to these three questions:
[12:53] Chances are, most of the things on the list are things you can't do anything about (besides vote). There are some you can take action on, but for the others, the solution is to surrender.
[18:05] We have to be smarter about how we take on the challenges. Much like how our Black ancestors figured out that they had to live through it spiritually, instead of trying to fight their enemy head-on.
[20:07] This is a tactic designed to wear us down, called Marketing Stamina in the world of marketing and sales. You see a message so many times that you surrender to it, and it takes up your mental real estate. You can combat this by actually going and enjoying your life, and being present to the miracle of being alive in the moment.
[34:58] It may seem confusing why this is all happening, but it's all in the right timing. We are meant for this. You are meant to take this on, and strong enough.
