Being withholding is a fear/pain-based reaction
because we have yet to accept and love ourselves unconditionally. We can neither understand nor give to others that which we have yet to experience ourselves. There are really only to reactions to anything: Love and Pain. Withholding people are speaking from a place of pain which I honor. I prefer to speak from a place of love. Namaste.
I withhold from the one's I love because I have me judging me in how I do me. I see me as being different or have me being in some way "out of sync" with the world in me. I not only withhold me, but then I have me retreat when I should express me and open me up.
I also have withholding me hiding a lie or concept of me that no longer fits me. I understand that the truth will "set me free".
I get me today.
i find this new website appealing and .informative. It peaks my interest and i would be interestd in attending a workshop at some point in the future.
I withold from those I love because I feel undeserving of their love, unlovable. I also feel underserving of loving them.
I am aware of withholding for two reasons. First, I withhold when I don't feel good about myself. It's as if, because I don't feel good, I don't want others to get close. I don't want them to feel about me the way I feel about me.
Second, I withhold because I fear the raw vulnerability of connecting at a deeper level.
