✨ DO YOU NEED TO GIVE IN ORDER TO RECEIVE, OR CAN YOU JUST RECEIVE? ✨

I’m sure you have heard - in order to receive, you must give.

.

I agree and disagree.
.
There is a beautiful balance between giving and receiving.
.
Giving from the heart without expecting anything in return, does bring you magic because you’re not attached to the outcome.
.
On the other hand, when you’re giving in order to receive, you have an expectation.
.
Then your giving is not coming from a pure, truthful and clean place.
.
It’s coming from manipulation.
.
On top of that, when you don’t receive after giving, you resent that person.
.
This can be the shadow side of overgiving and selfless people.
.
They give so much that it might keep them in a victim place - look at all the things I do and this is what I get in return.
.
They might give to an extent that it could never be reciprocated because it is dysfunctional to begin with.
.
It’s feeling not deserving, so the only way to receive is to give.
.
.
So how do you just receive without having to give?
.
You open yourself up to receive. Soften and allow 💫
.
Stop running around trying to help everyone and come back to yourself.
.
Take a deep breath. Shift from doing to being by opening your arms and just imagining that shift.
.
Take a moment and give yourself what you need.
.
If you need it from others, ask for it. You don’t have to help them first for them to give you what you need.
.
You don’t need to give to receive.
.
You can ask for it and receive it 🙏🏼
.
No manipulation, clear and loving communication.
.
You deserve it all as you are 🤗
.
Love you 💛
