When Feelings Swirl: Name to Tame to Go From Floundering to Flourising
Feeling the strain of the energetic forces around you? Learn how I'm navigating the swirl of 'all the feels' and the solution we both can use.
Hi Reader!
This week I've been more tuned in to what I'm feeling. Spending time with the feelings in me and discerning whether or not they are truly mine.
As humans, we are energetic beings.
Our hearts run on electric pulses.
Our beings are imprinted by the neutrinos that come from the sun.
And we can sense the vibes of a room, a person or a moment.
So this week on my daily walk, I spent some time untangling the swirl of feelings to notice and name each one.

Taming the Swirl
One thing I noticed was that some of the feelings I was feeling weren't 'mine'. I could tell they were sticking to me, but weren't something that was coming from inside.
I didn't quite pinpoint the source, but definitely realizing that they were things I was picking up from the world around me.
Even the affirmation of the week in my Chani app was helping me notice this.
Others were coming from a sudden lack of direction.
I wrapped up all of the details for the Firefly Scout Glow Foundations course and after weeks of focus to wrap up every last detail to create something I'm whole-heartedly thrilled about, there is an energetic vacuum that's causing my glow to flounder.
Noticing this, I have been able to navigate this period with less worry knowing that it's simple Glow math (more on that to come).
No big surprise, it has involved a lot of lists. (Totally recommend the Firefly Scout More/Less List course to help you start your own guided list making for solving life's problems.)
Maybe you are caught up in a swirl of different energies that are making life feel a little wonky right now.
Whenever you notice a disturbance in 'the force', take a few moments to notice which of the energies you are feeling belong to you and which do not.
Then you can efficiently focus your glow replenishing actions to nurture your glow to a more flourishing state.

Your Heart-Inspired Call to Action
What is straining or draining your glow today?
Are the energies coming from within or acting like a stage 5 clinger from someone else/the world at large?
Make the effort to change your environment and spend a little time alone.
That might be bundling up and taking a walk, sitting in the car before you head into the house or work, or taking an extended bathroom break.
(The Glow Foundations course is specifically designed for exactly these moments, I'm not kidding ๐ถ๐๐ฝ๐ฎ)
While you are in your own energy, see what you notice about your glow.
Which facets are holding their own and which could use some attention?
Tune into your intuition and notice what intuitive action sparks your energy.
The answer may not come to you in that exact moment, but by opening yourself up to the answer, you are sure to notice it when it appears.
When you tune in and listen to what you heart is telling you, you feel confident in what unfolds next in your story.
Ask yourself-
Would I say that my glow is flourishing or floundering right now?
Which facets of my glow are holding their own and which could use some attention?
How can I discern what feelings I'm feeling are mine versus something I'm carrying for other people?
What am I going to do about it?
Reader, what energy do you sense you are surrounded by today?
This awareness makes life so much easier to navigate, so you can allocate your capacity in a way that supports you taking the aligned actions that help you live a life that truly lights you up.
That's the Firefly Scout way of life. โจ
p.s. If you are exhausted by life and want to get to the bottom of what's keeping you from living a life that lights you up, my Glow Foundations course is the place to start.
It might just be the best $35 you ever spent on yourself...
