Life-Draining Vs. Life-Giving

Have you ever gotten to the point in life where you feel discontented—when things just don't quite feel right anymore and you’re struggling to find peace and satisfaction in the things that used to bring you joy?

Me too. In fact, during one such time, I had listened to a podcast that talked about filling your life with things that give you life—versus things that sucked your life away! So that night, I sat down to make a list with three columns:

    Life-Giving       |      Neutral      |      Life-Draining     

I started with people and relationships… I put friends, acquaintances, family members, co-workers, etc. into their appropriate column.

Then I put my job where it belonged. 

And proceeded with various things in my life: foods, activities, hobbies, groups, music, movies, etc.

It was an amazing experience. Honestly, I felt kind of bad about putting certain people in the life-draining category, but the truth is… some people just aren’t good for me. 

I really didn’t expect anything to happen after making the list, other than deciding to choose to fill my life more with things and people that felt life-giving. 

But I kid you not, all of the people and things on my list that I had placed into the life-draining category fell out of my life! Some within a few days, and others within a few weeks—including my job!

Simply doing that list exercise helped me clear some patterns that were keeping me stuck, so that I could move toward better things—things that resonated with who I wanted to become.

If you are feeling discontent in your life, give that list a try! There’s also a dose of enlightenment below.

Love from Jac

Since we promised to treat you to an extra dose of light in your inbox, we include a Dose of Enlightenment for you at the end of each newsletter. We value your agency, so it’s up to you whether or not you receive it!

This Dose of Enlightenment is a frequency equation meant to clear a hidden and trapped emotion that you’ve been holding onto. 

If today's emotion is one that we have already cleared, know that we are addressing a different layer or situation this time.

*******************************************************

Today’s emotion is: discontented

How does this emotion apply to you? For best results, ponder this question and identify how discontented applies to you.

Dose of Enlightenment: 156 + 844 = E

Say it out loud with intent: “one-fifty-six plus eight-forty-four equals enlightenment.”

Breathe. Let it go. Feel the shift. Allow your body to be filled with light.
