Hey, it’s Anne with your Coaching On The Go.

Today I am talking about when something happens and it’s hard to shake it. 

It stays on your mind.

Do you ever have that happen?

You are busy working in your zone, getting information from the outside, or in conversation with somebody, and something triggers you or upsets you, and you lose sleep and struggle.

I had this happen the other day, I was having a conversation with someone I love deeply.

It was about another person I love deeply.

Something that’s been dangling, I got information on it, and it didn’t seem like it was bothering me but it took up my attention for the whole night.

I had a hard time sleeping.

The next day, I talked to a friend about it. 

Now, if we talk to some friends, we will magnify our feeling of victimhood.

If we talk to others, they might pull us out and set us back on our feet.

There’s room for everything.

Sometimes you do need to articulate what you are feeling.

Other times you need to know when to be done and focus on your good life. 

Today I’m talking about having some sense of inner stability no matter what happens.

Meditation helps with that.

When you are actively engaged in the momentum of something that has triggered your emotions and upset you, if there’s nothing that you can do to clarify or change the situation, it’s good to figure out when is enough and when to let go of it in trust. 

I ended up speaking to my 80-something and 90-something year old parents (at the time) and at the end of our conversation, a deep, emotional, and intense conversation, I got some solid instruction to put it to rest, to simply give it a kiss and let it go and live solidly and squarely in my authentic integrity.

And now, what a gift.

So a couple of things here, one is talking about when it’s time to stop talking about the thing that’s bothering you because it’s not going anywhere, it’s not helping you and it’s creating momentum that you don’t want.

Secondly, who do you go to?

A good friend will tell you to knock it off.

At some point, they will tell you they are done listening and that you are powerful and to be powerful.

Position yourself around people who help clear things you can’t clear on your own, who will steer you in a direction that is empowering, that reminds you that you are the creator in your life, and that it’s up to you what you do with this particular thing.

Wishing you the best.

I’d love to hear from you in an email.

Love to you.
