Jeanne Stewart’s Post

Some time ago I wrote a post about things you should know when you are young. There was some great feedback and I thought I would post one of those each Sunday. These came from John Bullen, some great advice here: ·      Think for yourself. We are all taught to do as we are told and believe what we are told. We need independent thinkers to challenge and prome gress us as a species. Most of us spend too much time in our comfort zones ·      Love. Love yourself and love others without conditions. We say “just do you” but most don’t mean it. Unconditional love can heal, create miracles and allows us to all meet our potential ·      Learn to listen to understand not listen to respond. We are taught as kids that the fastest “right” answer is best so all most of us do is listen to give our answers ·       Be responsible for the impact of your actions. Not just your intentions. We need people who are responsible for their impact even if they think they are doing good ·      Don’t quit. Excuses are so easy but anything good takes time and effort

This quote reflects a mature and loving approach to relationships. It’s not about harboring resentment or ill feelings but about recognizing your worth and creating space for those who truly value and uplift you. Distance doesn’t mean a lack of care; it’s an act of self-love and kindness, both towards yourself and others. By setting boundaries, you foster healthier, more positive connections that nurture your well-being. This way, you remain open-hearted and compassionate, while also protecting your peace and happiness. True love and kindness start with valuing yourself and surrounding yourself with those who do the same.

Happy Sunday everyone.. On this most sacred of days what is the one thing that you want in your life? Each day that passes I realize I want two things in my life more than anything else: Peace and love... Well, maybe three things because I also want Mexican food, but you know... I want peace and love. I want friendships that aren’t fragile. I want relationships that aren’t volatile. I want people in my life where the connection between us isn’t delicate—where it isn’t easily broken. Where you trust me and I trust you and things are talked out. I want it all as comfortable as possible…like sweatpants that are worn in and cozy and allows room for growth and grace in the same way drawstrings work. I don’t want misunderstandings, bitterness, or anger, or awkwardness with anyone that rob us of relationships. I want peace and love.. I have learned finding peace is about confronting things head-on. It’s about asking good questions. It’s about listening. It’s about keeping my ridiculous knee-jerk reactions to myself. It’s about refusing to brush the difficult stuff under the rug and pretend it doesn’t exist until that rug becomes a mountain in-between me and my friends. It’s about talking things out and approaching every situation with kindness first. And finding love isn't all about attractiion but looking past the expectations of perfection and soaking in all the essence of chemistry that is outside our realm of understanding. So on this last weekend of July 2024 the things I want most for myself and for others is peace and love ❤️ And tacos and stuff, obviously🫠 #peaceandlove #positivity #loveoneanother #blessings #Sundaythoughts

Transform your life by following the three rules: Love, Trust, and Change. 🔸 I've got 3 basic rules that I follow to make sure I'm treating people well and making good choices. Love Means Action ❤️: Love isn't just a word; it's an action that shows you care. It's about being present, showing kindness, and making your actions speak louder than words. Love is all about what you do, not just what you say. Trust Means Proof 🔍: Trust is like a sturdy bridge between people, built through consistent actions and kept promises. It's not about luck or magic but being true to yourself and others. Trustworthiness is proven reliability and genuineness. Faith blossoms from actions, not just words. Sorry Means Change 🔄: Apologies are not just words; they're a call to action. It's about making things right and showing you've learned from your mistakes. Saying sorry is important, but true amends come from understanding the consequences and actively working to fix them. ✨ What are your rules for living a meaningful life?

My Surname is “Power” Yes, my surname is “Power.” I was born with it. I’ve grown up and grown older with it. It is a blessing and a responsibility for which I am sometimes not prepared. I’m also short. Both can be a hindrance or a help to respect (self- or from others). Some people challenge just because of my name. Others are certain I changed it from something else. A few even think I am too pressed down, patted flat, and made light of. The challenge is really this: I own my personal power and Power. I’ve spent a lot of time and thought on the issue of power, what it is, how people develop or acquire it, and how it is used. The right use of power (or Power). I’ve come to believe it is, for me, to take actions that promote the greatest good and highest call for all involved. The catch is, what do I believe is the greatest good? Do I have the right or the obligation to define that for others? Is the answer to any of these arrogance or humility? If I say it’s humility, does it become arrogance? It’s delicate. How to exercise influence. How to gracefully back up when you don’t need to fight. How to identify and do the right thing, the thing that promotes Love. How to Light up a room even when the electricity is off (and the Power is still on). Names matter. Power, and how it is used, matters.

There are many things out of our control. Such as who are our parents, what nation or decade we are born into, what our skin color is etc. We all have a mother and a father. We all have a story. We all have unique personal experiences, strengths, weaknesses, personalities, core values etc. So, our perspective can be wildly different from one another. In The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People (by Stephen Covey), habit #5 is “Seek first to understand, then to be understood.” Empathetic listening to others compels them to reciprocate that listening model. This leads to greater understanding and communication. It is easier to give grace to others when we understand their point of view, whether we agree with it or not. God is the only one with a pure and true vantage point. His is an eternal purpose-filled vantage point! We cannot know the heart of another. We probably don’t know their story or the pains that drive their behaviors. But we can be slow to anger and quick to forgive even when we don’t understand. We can live from a heart of compassion versus a heart that simply chooses offense. May we all consider the vantage point that we are all a work in progress, that we all need love, grace and mercy from others. Lord, help me seek first to understand before being understood. Help me to see through Your eyes of mercy, grace and a patient love.

Unconditional love is telling the truth and loving others no matter how they respond and loving yourself no matter how you respond. People pleasing is lying to yourself, being inauthentic and/or lying to other people-- and that is not love. Listen for more on how to distinguish between love and people pleasing and how to reduce the people pleasing tendencies and have more love in your life.

So much of what we currently experience in relationships is based on old, outdated ways of relating to each other. We show up from need, lack, dependency ... which is anything but love and anything but freedom. If you want to experience true love in your relationships, you must reclaim your sovereignty. Only then can you experience freedom in your relationships. The 5-month portal to Revolutionize your Relationships is about creating an embodied transformation as you reclaim your power, sovereignty, and cultivate internal freedom to be all of you, fully expressed. You will be supported to create deep levels of internal safety so you own your boundaries, speak the truth of your heart, open to receive for who you are, and cultivate conscious relationships. We will meet every other week for 5 months with at least 2 powerful embodiment practices each month. During our LIVE biweekly calls, you will receive coaching, energetic transmissions, and teachings so you embody your divine power. I'm offering a BONUS 1-hour private session to everyone who signs up on or before Valentine's Day! You are worthy of saying yes to YOU. You can reserve your spot or learn more at https://lnkd.in/e7w4wFaY or click the link.in bio and “Revolutionize your Relationships.” Feel free to DM me as well!
