Acceptance is the cure for insecurity, relationships, trauma, anxiety, and depression. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is Acceptance?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Acceptance embodies both surrender and faith. Accepting means to see and to validate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The 3 Pillars:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 1. Acceptance:<\/strong> In order to be in a state of acceptance, one must first accept whatever it is that needs to be acknowledged. Without acceptance, one cannot fully see, because you are in a state of denial, repression, or suppression. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. Surrender\/letting go: <\/strong>After acceptance comes letting go (surrender)<\/em> and having faith (trust)<\/em>. Surrender means to let go of trying to control. It includes mental control of how you expect things \u201cshould go\u201d or \u201cshould be\u201d. You must let go of whatever your mental attachment is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. Faith\/trust: <\/strong>Then finally, you can open your awareness to unknown possibilities by having faith that this is for the best. Knowing that everything happens at the right time, for the right reason. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Insecurity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Insecurity is a lack of self-worth. Insecurity is a state of not loving yourself. To attain true self-love and self-worthiness, you must learn to see and accept <\/strong>who you truly are. <\/p>\n\n\n\n That means:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Relationships<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n There are multiple dimensions to a relationship. However, in its essence, acceptance is the core component of the majority of solutions to relationship-related problems. Here are some examples of applying the concept of acceptance to relationships:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Functional Relationship:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Toxic Relationship:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n After Ending a Relationship: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Being single: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Trauma<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Trauma is always a complex subject because individual experiences, environments, and circumstances differ. However, the pain that is associated with trauma fluctuates from person to person. Some people recover quickly, while others spend a long time to fully recover from the implications of their experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Anxiety<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Anxiety is being stuck in the future. It is stress, it is a racing mind. It stems from your thoughts most of the time. Anxiety is often a worry about upcoming events such as what your future looks like, what response you will get, or what will happen tomorrow. In social anxiety, there is often the fear of messing up and wondering what people think of you. A crucial key component that is neglected during anxiety is surrender. People who have anxiety often have an abundance of preconceived scripts of how things are supposed to go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n As for all examples, there are many examples to play with, but here is one to help you wrap your head around the idea:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Depression<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Depression is being stuck in the past. It is sorrow, it is a narrow and negative outlook on life. People experiencing depression tend to reminisce about the past. Stuck in emotions such as guilt, regret, and shame. This can occur after a variety of experiences such as the death of a loved one, making a wrong financial decision, or doing something you feel ashamed of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Acceptance in depression, or being sad\/stuck in the past can feel miserable. It feels even worse when it is persistent. To get out of your grief, here is an example of how accepting thoughts would look:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Ask yourself what it is you need to accept in your life to help you lift the blockages you may have. Ultimately, you know yourself best. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Acceptance:<\/strong> I See<\/p>\n\n\n\n Surrender: <\/strong>I release<\/p>\n\n\n\n Faith:<\/strong> I trust<\/p>\n-M.J.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Acceptance is the cure for insecurity, relationships, trauma, anxiety, and depression.
