Women and Self Esteem: A Smart Woman keeps her Energy Field Clean

So, you have been doing your personal inner work and are feeling pretty good about yourself. You have resolved much of what needed resolving from the past, and are committed to your growth and wellness.

You have created a new reality for yourself. You don't claim to be perfect, but you are definitely moving ahead with an honest and willing spirit. You are noticing that your life is steadily becoming easier and your experiences are richer. You really like the changes and are determined to continue on your authentic journey.

You are a Smart Woman and you want to keep and protect what you have created. Here are 4 Golden Rules to keep your energy field clean.

Mind Your Own Business
You have enough of your own 'stuff' to work on; you don't need to work on someone else. Everyone is responsible for her own personal growth. If asked for advice, simply give honest feedback.

Keep your emotional hands to yourself. No fixing or rescuing.

You can't change others anyway, so let it go. Adopt a Live and Let Live' attitude. Allow others to make their mistakes and learn their own life lessons.

Be careful of what you invite into your energy field. You will enjoy your life much more if you mind you own business.

Admit your mistakes as soon as you make them
You are human; you are going to make mistakes. You are going to step on the occasional emotional toe that belongs to someone else.

One of my favorite sayings is... "When you spill the milk, simply clean it up and move on". No big deal.

It takes courage to admit your mistakes. Keep it simple. You don't have to give long explanations, just say you messed up.

Ex: "I need to apologize to you for something I said yesterday, I was wrong...." simple, clean.

Don't apologize when you are not wrong
Many of us were raised to be peacemakers and one of our handy tools is to be the one to make things right and apologize all over the place. If this is one of your habits, notice how often you say, "I'm sorry".

If you have truly stepped over a boundary, then by all means take responsibility, but don't apologize when you haven't done anything wrong.

In other words, if you didn't spill the milk, don't say you are sorry. Go ahead and help clean it up if you like, but be honest with yourself.

The term 'co-dependency' comes into play with this habit that comes naturally to so many of us have. Don't play little so someone else can feel big.

Seek your own best council first
You are the only one who can create the perfect creative solution to your problems. Only you know all the intricacies of your situation.

There is nothing wrong with seeking healthy feedback from someone who is not invested in what you do, but go inside first.

You have a Higher Power at your immediate disposal. Become practiced at relying on that relationship for your answers. You will find that your solutions fit you perfectly.

There you have it, 4 ways to keep your energy field clean and fresh. Imagine an energy bubble around you. Take full responsibility for the efficiency of your bubble. Keep it clean and honest and simple. You will appreciate the results.
