Energetic siphoning

This may be my favorite picture I’ve ever taken! It was yesterday afternoon at a coffee shop in Grayton Beach.

I’ve been contemplating themes around consent, participation, & energetic siphoning while writing a chapter of the book on the importance of healing so that we aren’t susceptible to having our wounds weaponized against us.

This creates a slave state &, over time, depletes our energy. It is a form of siphoning, & while I don’t typically like to operate from what could be interpreted as victim consciousness, it doesn’t feel good.

Needing to be sick, disempowered, or holding a belief in my own brokenness and dependency in order to participate in something is no longer a viable option for me. It’s just not worth the trade-off.

While some of these arrangements appear to offer shiny things in exchange for buying in, when you look a little closer, it’s all an illusion.

For example, the unspoken message (fine print) of a toxic family system is that you have to follow all the rules in order to receive love and belonging. However, if this is the deal, then I would argue that love and belonging were never available there to begin with.

I do not subscribe to a belief that says I have to disown parts of myself in order to access abundance.

In fact, any “abundance” I do manage to experience within those dynamics is artificial, shallow, and fleeting.

I believe we’re headed into a time where parasitic energies will not be able to hang on. Anything that can not sustain its own life by a personal connection to themselves and to Source will die as people heal and cut off the food supply.

In the meantime, if you’re feeling entangled in something that you can’t immediately extricate yourself from, you can create a practice of saying “I do not conset” multiple times throughout the day, and even doing energetic cord cuttings.

Anything that’s hooked into our lower chakras has the potential to be parasitic.

Lower chakras govern safety and security. Connection based on this alone can feel obligatory and needs based. Healthy and reciprocal relationships are heart to heart connections. They will feel free and expansive.

I’ll write more about this soon. ..this entry was longer, but I backspaced because it just felt like too much for today.
