Who's your kryptonite? We all have one. You know, that person that can make you feel small and stupid with just a look. Despite swearing to ourselves that we won't let them get to us this time, we do. And the next thing we know, we're handing them our power right there on a silver platter and we're left with nothing but anger and self-loathing for being weak once again. Is it your mother? Your ex? Your boss? Who?
This afternoon a friend asked me to help her come up with a mantra to build strength when dealing with her ex-husband. Mind you, this woman is beautiful, intelligent and strong. She is such a phenomenal burst of energy packed into a pint sized body, nobody would ever suspect that she could be intimidated by anyone, but she, like the rest of us has her kryptonite. I came up with the following mantra on her behalf but think we can all benefit from the message it holds.
"I am strong, smart, confident and powerful. I have done and will continue to do great things with my life. No one can, nor will I allow anyone to try, to take that from me. I own my own power in all situations."
Say it outloud, repeat it often and keep it handy should you be exposed to your version of kryptonite.
Blessings
