Words, written and spoken, are very powerful. With just one sentence a life can be changed forever…either destroyed or uplifted.
The words that come out of our mouth can also tell us a lot about what we are perceiving on a non-physical level.
Subconscious Talking Out Loud
We interact daily on an energetic level, but we aren’t always consciously aware. However, our subconscious sometimes speaks out, verbally saying what we are not consciously aware of picking up.
For instance: My then elementary school aged child was having some problems at school. They informed me that she was sluggish; her skin color was off and she was slightly nauseous.
At the time we could call a nurse hotline for assistance. I told the nurse what the school had said. The nurse asked me to look at my daughter and describe what I saw.
I told the nurse that my daughter looked like a wilting flower. The nurse chuckled and said that my description was accurate; my daughter was dehydrated.
We hadn’t lived in the Southwest for very long and hadn’t realized that we needed to really increase our daily water intake. I think my subconscious mind knew more than my conscious mind had picked up on.
Hitchhikers
Our vocalization of our feelings or observations can be clues to what’s happening behind the scenes.
“I don’t feel like myself today.”
“I haven’t felt like myself since I had surgery.”
“I haven’t felt right since I went to the concert (grocery store, park, etc.)”
These can be warnings that you might have an attachment*. Note: The first one may also be an indicator of an imbalance – such as a flu bug -which hadn’t quite fully manifested yet, leaving one to feel slightly off.
When we have a hitchhiker being (attachment) we can pick up on their life memory addictions, ailments, dislikes, etc.
Speaking Our Mind
We have become very well versed in guarding and filtering our true thoughts or feelings that sometimes they will come out of our mouth without consciously wanting it to.
Some of us who are not professionals in the mental health field may have a laugh or two when a friend has a Freudian slip. In layman’s terms, we verbally said what we truly thought, even going against our filtered and guarded thoughts and/or the accepted “norm”; and then we are usually embarrassed that it came out of our mouth.
Do You Say What You Feel?
My husband said I am too honest or that I am honest to a fault; I normally say what I feel.
I understand what he was saying, but I work hard to be honest with my thoughts and feelings, and part of my life job is to share my experiences with others (like in this blog) so that others won’t feel alone or perhaps my words will help someone.
More times than I care to think about, it has turned out that when I guard, filter or ignore my true thoughts or feelings on something (or someone) – and don’t speak up (not necessarily aggressively) – it bites me in the behind (creates turmoil).
I understand being diplomatic and cautious about timing – you certainly don’t want to yell out “I hate this job!” to your boss or co-workers; that would be hazardous to your income and probably inhibit your ability to find other employment when you are fired.
We also don’t have to be aggressive about it at all.
I recommend acknowledging your true feelings and thoughts – not necessarily sharing them with the whole world – but also not ignoring them. Please be responsible with your honesty!
Challenge
I challenge you to actually actively listen to what you say this week. Are your words a true reflection of what you are feeling/thinking? (Again, be responsible!)
Is your subconscious trying to get your attention about something? (Don’t drive yourself nuts with this one!)
*(Attachment/hitchhiker beings are non-physical beings that intentionally or unintentionally entered into our energy fields; however, attachments are not the only reason on may be thinking/feeling that way.)
