Pam, What a powerful share. I could feel tears of gratitude starting to come up as I imagined that young man getting support from the Universe through you that he is on the right path in challenging his fears to change his life. What an impact you had on the others as well. No doubt there are many other lives you have affected that you may not even be aware of. I intend to remember this share when I feel afraid and believe I don’t have anything to offer. ~David |

Soula, What a wonderful example of spiritual partnership with your son. It was also a good reminder to me about how to speak in integrity and hear others when they are in their integrity. Joan, I appreciate you being open and choosing to learn and have a loving perspective. When you choose to see your partner in a loving way what do you feel in your body. ~David |

Hi Becky, Welcome to the community! Now that you are here, you can browse some of the other items that have been posted. Looking at the Live Sessions forum is a good place to start. Under each topic, people share about what they are learning about authentic power and how they are challenging their fears or where they need support. You can share about how your are learning to challenge specific things in your life as well. We are here to support each other. ~David |

Luz, That sounds like a wonderful perspective you are choosing. I’m still experimenting with this. I will let you know as I gain more insights. ~David |

Sundar, You might find it supportive to imagine the scenario in the drug store again while using the various authentic power guidelines. Notice what you are feeling and thinking as each person speaks. Notice your intention before you speak. What does your intuition say? When I have been able to take the time to reflect on my interactions with an openness to something important for me to see, often new insights about myself will come. ~David |

Hi Ame-Lia, I appreciate the reminder again. I had the opportunity today to choose how to interact with a co-worker. It was quiet and only two of us in the office. I was taking a break alone. I wasn’t quite ready to go back to work yet and started to go into his office to chat and then went back to my office so I could stay in my isolated quiet experience. I felt in the moment it was good ‘self-care’ after a long week and was the ‘break’ that I needed. I then remembered that I also want more connection in my life and I went into my co-workers office and had a friendly chat with no agenda just to be in each other’s energy. It was meaningful and I am glad I made that choice. ~David |

Hi Soula, I felt the pain in my body, and remembered my intention to challenge that frightened part. I did my best to listen. What I did not do, that I intend to remember next time is to completely let go of what I think is so important. I can make the decision that right now, for the next few minutes, my presence to listen is what is important. If I really have something urgent to do and I don’t have the time to talk, I can use my courage to communicate that to my co-workers and get back to them later. ~David |

Hi Soula, Thank you for the reminder of what I can create when I set my intention to be open for opportunities to create authentic power. I had forgotten about this. I have had some recent experiences where I allowed myself to take a break from my tasks and have a friendly chat. As recently as yesterday, however, I noticed a frightened part of my personality that felt impatient and irritated with a coworker because it had a compulsion to get back to work immediately. I intend to look at this more closely as I go about my day. Love, David |

Hi Sundar, I don’t know for sure, but I feel that you may have a frightened part of your personality that needs to intellectualize to avoid feeling, especially if it feels misunderstood by others. Does that resonate with you? ~David |

Hi Diane, Thank you for sharing. I think it’s significant and wonderful that you were able to realize that you had a frightened part of your personality active even after a few days. You can keep looking, feeling and noticing your thoughts moment by moment. Is it possible you still may have another very familiar frightened part of your personality active that quickly shifted from focusing on yourself to helping your son? What does it feel like in your body when you imagine talking to him? What does it feel like when you imagine not talking to him? Do you feel it’s coming from fear or love? Love, David |

Thanks everyone for participating in today’s online chat. Even on a weeknight! The online chat is officially ended now, but those who can stay on, can continue to chat as long as they want. Also, you can always come back later and respond to a post that resonated with you. Have a good night. Until next time. Love, David |

Thanks for sharing Lorena. Can you elaborate on how being open to phrases like “letting go of what you think is reward” can help when choosing to no longer drink alcohol? |
