Freeing Yourself From Emotional Bondage!

Hello y’all! Hope you are doing well! So in my previous write-up, I said that I’m going to talk about how I freed myself from emotional bondage. Ready! Let’s go! So one thing that helped me out of emotional bondage was I gave myself time to heal. I found it very difficult to let go of my wounds which was caused by how some people took me for granted, humiliated and discouraged me. All these thoughts emerged into something dangerous which was severely affecting me emotionally. But I asked myself how I can heal from these painful wounds which was severely burning inside of me, until I read this quote by Kevin Hart which says “laughter heals all wounds, and that’s one thing that everybody shares. No matter what you are going through it makes you forget about your problems. I think the world should keep laughing.” Wow! Powerful quote there! At times when people do certain things to offend you , you just have to laugh about it and move on with your life. This quote really helped me to the extent that whenever I’m entangled with unnecessary thoughts, I try and laugh about it and forget about it because it’s not worth it. So I decided to replace my wounds with laughter which has healed me from any emotional bondage.

• Be responsible for your own happiness: Exactly! Everyone born on this earth have his or her purpose they have to achieve. You shouldn’t wait for someone to make you happy. You have to be determined to excel at all cost without depending on anyone to make your dreams come into reality. You must be in charge of your own happiness. You shouldn’t wait for someone to create happiness in your life. You must create your own happiness and be happy about who you are!

• Make peace with your past: One way to break free from emotional bondage is to make peace with your past. In our past lies experiences that we may not be proud of or regret. Certain experiences in our past depletes our energy and happiness such that we fail to consider the good things that life has in store for us. We cling to thoughts or experiences of how bad someone has treated us or how unfairly people we trusted betrayed us. It’s human to be angry, sad and cry for a while as a way of releasing and expressing our emotions. However, anything beyond this is poisonous to your soul.

In order to move on and free yourself from the bondage of holding on to our past, you must first make peace with yourself and your past and then acknowledge that you deserve the best this life has to offer. This mindset is necessary because it will liberate you mentally and psychologically and you’ll begin to draw inner strength to stay away from the emotionally bonded thoughts that has enveloped you. In other words, you will need to make a conscious effort to break away from anything that doesn’t give you peace of mind so that you can enjoy and experience the fullness of life gifted to you by God. Know that the future holds better promises than the past. Our past becomes a memory and the only thing relevant in our past is the lessons we learned so that we can become wise and make a better future. Time is moving fast and the past is not a place to dwell. Our present is our truest reality, therefore you must make the most out of it.

• Stop thinking negative: Negative thinking is basically a thinking pattern that is skewed towards the worst-case scenario in any given situation. You see the bad in every situation whereas you could have just seen the brighter side of it. Negative thinking is like poison to your soul. It robs you of your happiness and peace. Positive thinking is like a light in the darkness( Emotional Bondage). It gives you the opportunity to see and feel positive vibes deep within your soul and spirit. In so doing it liberate you from anyone that’s projecting a negative feeling to you. It enables you to dissociate and free yourself from things or people that keep you hostage to emotional bondage and emotional blackmail. Someone who genuinely loves you won’t make you suffer emotionally but rather inject positive feelings and love into your spirit.

• Don’t compare yourself to others: Everyone’s life is different. God created everyone differently in terms of colour, height, face and so on and so forth. You all have a great purpose you have to accomplish here on earth. Don’t allow inferiority complex dictate to you, else it will lead you astray. Most people compare themselves to others because they don’t understand why they can’t enjoy the same benefit another person is enjoying. Look! Your life and purpose is different from them.There will come a time whereby you will enjoy whatever you are yearning for! Just be grateful and love who you are and make sure you become a better version of yourself by being determined to achieve your aspirations in life. Free your mind and live well!
