Your Wisdom Keeper
You’ve called in the support of the
Wisdom Keeper of Altruism!
Thank you for inviting me into your compassion practice. I’m here to balance giving with receiving, so you never empty your own cup.
My Gift to You
It is time to look honestly at your relationship to giving. Are you giving from your heart, or are you giving away your power? Are you giving without attachment, or with a hidden agenda? What did you learn during the first seven years of your life about selfishness and Selflessness? I ask you to be intuitive in your giving. Give to causes and to people who are fertile, who can make use of the gifts they receive. If you are feeling angry or resentful, do not give. Not yet. Wait until your heart opens. Practice random acts of kindness whenever possible. And your sincere Altruism will bring more joy and abundance into your life than you can possibly imagine.
My Story (excerpt)
My people looked down upon selfishness. Status and respect were earned through generous giving and personal sacrifice, not through self-centered accumulating and individual achievement.
From the moment I could hold something in my hands, I learned to give it away. On birthdays, I gave gifts to my guests. When participating in ceremony, I gave gifts to my teacher and those around me. When I became a young woman, I served my family willingly and without complaint.
But there were times when I was expected to give, and I felt taken advantage of and disrespected...
Tip
Before your next act of kindness, check in with yourself—are you filled enough to give freely?
Possible Questions to Ask Yourself:
Where are you sacrificing yourself in ways that aren’t healthy for you? Where are you giving with strings?
Have you ever given too much of yourself and then resented it later? How can you better care for yourself so you can give from a full cup?
Where and with whom do you find it most difficult to set healthy limits?
Where and with whom do you tend towards selfishness?
