Time to relax

Dear Readers,
I took a break from writing this blog to work on other areas of Fullistics, including a new website: www.fullistic.com.  There you'll find more information about Fullistics, a list of great books and reference resources, information about Fullistic programs and keynotes, and links to some Fullistic events coming up.  If you're looking to add more energy and fun to your life, check it out!

For today, though, let me answer a couple of questions that have been in the queue since I've been gone.

 Dear Energy Lady,
I have a coworker who's really toxic.  Any way I can protect myself?

Signed,
Bruised

Dear Bruised,
For this question, I'm going to refer to The Course in Miracles, which points out that "nothing real can be threatened, and nothing unreal exists."  So instead of taking this person seriously, think of him or her as a character in a dream- not real.  Just an energy field that has come into yours to teach you something about yourself.

What are you supposed to learn?  That the behavior you see is a reflection of something you fear may be true about yourself.  Even if you don't demonstrate it, you recognize it, and that's enough to bond you with it.

So ask yourself : can I forgive this, accept it or transform it?  Try to release both this person and the behavior, and you will release yourself.

You know you have succeeded when you feel peaceful.  You don 't need a new job or new colleagues;  shift your thinking, and see if the picture doesn't shift, too.

Love,
EL
