Today,
I'm going to chat about boundaries and energy leaks.
So I'm looking at boundaries from an energetic perspective.
I mean,
Really that's what they are.
It's energy.
Boundaries are a containment of energy.
That's it.
And it's so interesting,
Isn't it?
Because we think of boundary,
It almost,
It feels quite finite.
It feels like a line and it's an energetic containment.
And so it is going to move,
You know,
As energy moves.
But it's a bit like if you think of your aura that surrounds you and it holds your energy in.
It contains your energy so you're not leaking out.
Well,
That's exactly what a boundary is.
And for many of us female entrepreneurs,
We may not realize that our boundaries are a little lax until we set up our business,
Until we're showing up in our business.
And we probably hear the term boundaries used a lot more.
And we start to realize where we have some slack boundaries in our business.
And as this awareness grows in us,
We then translate that across to our lives outside of business and realize there where our boundaries have also been lax,
Where we're leaking energy.
So I decided to share this topic with you this week because it's come up a few times for me in the past week.
And this is how I decide my podcast topics because there's a pattern.
It shows up a couple of times over the week before.
And I think,
Ooh,
Universe is getting my attention there with this one.
It must be time to talk about it.
And for me over the last week has been boundaries.
Now,
This has actually been a great insight that I've had about this pattern because it's the way I've tended to work,
Especially with my podcast and my blogging is I write or speak about what's been obvious in my life over the last week,
The signs that have come in.
And I'm currently doing a course and it's for generators and manifesting generators.
And I'm finding it so helpful in this way.
So if you're not familiar with human design,
I'm going to talk about familiar with human design,
I'm sorry.
You might just put this might be interesting for you anyway,
But I'm a generator.
So a part of that is that I respond.
So in my marketing and what I put out there,
I'm responding to what's been coming into me rather than initiating.
And I've been doing this with the podcast because I get these little messages from the universe and go,
Oh,
Well,
From the universe through others and think,
Oh,
Oh,
I'm going to talk on that this week.
So it's been awesome to do this course and realize that actually this is me really honoring my generator energies.
And by bringing this into my awareness more,
I'm going to use it much more in my offers,
Which I haven't done so much before,
But anyway,
That was just a little aside,
But now back to boundaries.
So boundaries have come to me over the past week through a couple of clients mentioning it,
But also through realizing where I'd had some Slack boundaries.
So I've been on the,
On both sides of it,
If you like.
So let's get into it.
I'm going to talk about three things in particular today to do with boundaries.
So one is the boundaries between you and others,
Or in this case,
It's your clients,
So the boundaries between you and your clients.
And a second thing that you may not think about,
You may not have considered the boundaries between you and your business.
And then the third thing,
Which just came to me this morning prior to recording is the boundaries between you and the patriarchal rules.
I was going to call it the boundaries between you and yourself,
Because that's what it felt like.
But then I realized that the patriarchal rules or the shoulds are the stories of the mind,
The beliefs and rules that you have in your energy body.
You know,
It's almost like putting boundaries between yourself,
Your essence and those rules.
So that's the third thing I'll talk about.
But before I get into that,
I just wanted to talk about the energy body and boundaries are very strongly associated with the solar plexus chakra.
The solar plexus chakra has a yin and a yang component.
The yin component of the solar plexus chakra is the self-love,
Self-worth,
Self-trust,
Self-belief.
The yang aspect of the solar plexus chakra is the warrior energy.
They're taking action,
The being in your power.
And when these two aspects are in harmony,
That's when the solar plexus energy really shines.
And the thing is,
Boundaries are an act of self-love.
They're an honoring of yourself.
They're an honoring of your energy.
Boundaries keep your energy strong and intact so that you have more to give.
Which means the yang aspect of the solar plexus,
The action,
The coming from a place of being in your power,
That warrior energy is more powerful.
It's more aligned because it's actually more contained because your energy is more contained.
Now there is another chakra strongly related to boundaries,
And that's the throat chakra,
Which is very connected with the solar plexus chakra because the throat chakra is how those boundaries are communicated.
And if there's stories and beliefs in your throat chakra that are holding back your expression,
Making you remain the good girl,
If you like,
I can't speak that.
Who am I to say no to this person?
You know,
I have to be agreeable.
I have to put others first.
All those stories that make you swallow your truth.
I told them I'd go along to that.
So I've got to go along to that.
Swallow your truth.
Swallow the self-love.
Swallow the boundary.
Energy leak.
So the throat chakra is very powerful in the expression of boundaries.
And we are overcoming our conditioning to express those boundaries.
So throat chakra solar plexus,
Very,
Very powerful.
The base chakra also has a role to play because the base chakra is about you feeling supported and secure and stable to honor and express your boundaries and express them.
But on the whole,
I find when I'm looking at energy bodies,
Female entrepreneurs in particular,
It's the solar plexus and the throat chakras.
Where I see old stories,
Old beliefs,
Old memories that stop boundaries being enforced and expressed.
So let's look at the story.
Let's look at the story.
