The Prison In Your Mind.
Most people spend a great deal of their lives in a state of punishment.This energy can be so present that we no longer even notice it – it feels “normal” or “natural”. The most surprising thing about this is that most of the time, the punishment comes from within ourselves.
Punishment is a terrible energy to be generating within yourself. You can be punishing yourself by not being allowed to have the kind of job you’d long to have. Or not being in the kinds of relationships you would flourish in. You can be punishing yourself by remaining in situations or conditions that are very unhealthy to you “because you made your bed, now you need to lie in it.” You can be running your whole life feeling out of place, like you don’t belong, like you’re not worth anything. This can be the “story” or the energy that informs everything you experience.
Not surprisingly, when you’re punishing yourself like this, it gives other people permission and encouragement to punish you, too – on an unconscious level. We’re all psychic, and we are all sensing subtle energies all the time. When you meet someone who is generating a energy of self-punishment, it’s a little like a subconscious cue inviting you to punish them too. You might go right along with and support their punishment. Or, if you’re a healer, you can get stuck trying to make them feel better about themselves – which allows them to remain in punishment mode (ie – a victim), relying on you to constantly and continually heal them.
You might be carrying punishment from your childhood, from failures of the past, or even past lives in the form of karma. Punishment that people around are in that you heal for them, “here – let me help you with that” – is a way of making someone feel better or protecting them. But where does that energy go? Chances are you’re taking it on.
None of this is in present time, and does not deserve or require that you hold on to it, or remain punished. The best way to learn is through mistakes – so even things you’ve done in the past that could be seen, in the worst light, as “in error” – are really your greatest assets going forward.
If there’s an area of your life where you’re in lack, chances are that there’s some form of punishment going on – and it might not be punishment coming from other people, but generated within your own space. You might be blaming people, things, the world for your punishment and pain – but the genesis is almost always within you. You can clear these energies, you can heal yourself, and you can take steps forward towards having more!
Where and how are you stuck in a cycle of punishing yourself? It might be hard to see at first. A clairvoyant reading can look at these energies, at the root causes behind them, and help you to take a step towards self-healing and having more in your life.
