Respect yourself at all times. When you respect yourself, you know how to respect others and you help all of us to Ascend to a higher human paradigm. Right now, humanity is outgrowing the profane disrespect that created such a painful way of life. We are instead remembering sacred respect for all, which is your natural state.
Respect includes being highly valued, honored, supported, celebrated, cherished, appreciated, trusted, included, free and healthy. Treat yourself with respect always and interact with those who also live with respect. Disrespect includes being devalued, betrayed, abandoned, shamed, insulted, controlled, distrusted, excluded and unhealthy. Disrespect is disempowerment whereas respect is loving empowerment. It can be helpful to ask yourself regularly, “Is what I’m doing respectful to myself and to everyone else too? Am I coming from a place of being wounded or honored?”
Here are my personal, hard-earned tips on how to embody respect and how to handle disrespect. You may want to post these in your room at the holidays. Remember to treat yourself and others as holy, especially during the “holy days”:
- Feel the highest respect and loving bliss for all life, including yourself, and with this feeling create your own heaven on earth from the inside out. This is how you/we Ascend.
- Go direct to GodSource always. Feel sacred God within sacred you.
- Feel detached compassion for all people, especially those who are emotionally wounded/disrespected, just as you were too. Actively heal your wounding and leave others to heal theirs. Engage with people at a very high level. It’s best not to get involved with those who aren’t spiritually awake or don’t own their healing. Think of them as “Sleeping Beauties” for now.
- Respect your body and yourself with the utmost honor at all times. Be your uniquely beautiful self. There is no need to defend or explain yourself to anyone, and no need to try to prove that you look good enough or are right.
- Own your thoughts and your energy, which are powerful, and give your attention to things that respect your well-being. Speak and think harmoniously about what you want to experience, not what you don’t. Refrain from acting with passive aggression—communicating how you really feel in cryptic, powerless ways.
- If you find yourself replaying painful past experiences in your head, focus on the lessons you learned and take these lessons to heart. Replace each memory with its invaluable lesson. If you truly feel wrong then take your lessons with humility and give respect to those who helped you learn them.
- Stay away from those who blame the external for their problems and then disrespect others. They may use you to feel better about themselves and then turn around and blame you for their pain. This only perpetuates injustice, so get out of the way. Remember to be honored, not wounded, which is what these people are teaching you.
- If anyone tries to disrespect you, leave them be without a fight. Engaging in negativity distracts you from your essential spiritual work on earth. If you feel emotionally upset, go immediately to a place where you can be alone to face your own healing. Love yourself in your most difficult moments—this is spiritual gold! And your healing helps all humans.
- If it bothers you that people who try to disrespect you don’t like you, please understand two things: 1. These people do not like themselves. 2. You are already infinitely, spiritually loved. You don’t have to please others.
Lastly, don’t be a good little robot who follows others, but rather, be a beacon of love who champions respect. You don’t have to take sides. Love with all your heart instead and let the rest go. Let suffering, struggle and survival go. Stay far away from the corrupt old system that taught us to be wounded females and males who fight for resources, and most of all, to fight for love. You are already LOVED, cherished, respected and adored in our gorgeous universe, and all you have to do now is respect yourself. Lead on, shining friend. You’ve got this.
