Some quick steps to reset your energy when you’re not on the same page with someone else. 

Whether it’s political disagreements, personal beliefs, or ways you go about something…we’re not always on the same page. 

There’s a saying in Kundalini yoga “See the other as you.”

In other religions there’s a similar concept. In Hinduism, oneness is often understood as the individual soul (Atman) being identical with the universal soul (Brahman). Buddhism teaches that all things are interdependent and arise together, with no inherent separate existence. 

Learning to live this principle of oneness is a practice in itself…but it is such a meaningful way to approach life, others and times of conflict. 

Remember, while we all may have differing opinions, at the root of it we are all the same. We are all human. We all struggle with similar challenges, fears and insecurities. 

We all are seeking similar desires for safety, healthy living, love and connection and ways of thriving even though we may differ on the beliefs or the how to accomplish that. 

The one tool I’ve found most helpful in truly honoring different perspectives and ways of doing something is the demartini method. 

The demartini method helps you break down labels and behaviors in such a specific way, that each trait, action or inaction can always be matched. 

It allows you to see the equal benefits and drawbacks of each specific action step that we take. And, those of others. 

You also end up seeing the equal support and challenge that always co-exists. One is never present without the other in some context. 

However, when you don’t consciously take the time to truly look for these principles in action and just think “oh, I know that,” you miss the magic and depth of implementing this as a practice and a way of being. 

Mastery means learning and seeing how things are working for you to help shape you into your most authentic aligned way of being. 

If something is feeling off, it’s a signal to pay attention. 

I set aside dedicated time to work through the demartini method often and then I have a daily practice (and I also use it as needed if I feel ungrounded or judgmental). 

Here’s the process I use in a moment to get centered and clear.

Then I can own my information and desires without attaching to or judging someone else. 

1. Separate energetically and own my space. Give someone else permission to have their path and their way of doing something without judgment. 
2. Find a space of connection energetically. See what challenges, doubts or fears are aligned in both of us. 
3. Accept that part within myself for what it is. I don’t make it larger than it is and I give it space to be without needing it to change. I can still have my path and thrive with all the parts of myself being seen. 

(In fact, that’s what gives me even more ease and confidence…so counterintuitive to having those masks and not wanting to see what exists. It’s always easy to find rational reasons, but taking accountability and seeing all of ourselves requires some time and attention.) 

4. I give myself permission to let in my spiritual knowing and light. I imagine opening up at my crown chakra and letting my own information in through my entire body. With that I take another deep breath and visit my heart chakra to see what I’m truly in affinity with creating, having and sharing. 

5. From this place there’s a sense of flow between all the chakras and a balanced way of seeing what is and having the efficient focused energy to create, to have challenging conversations from a grounded and loving space or move through life’s demands in a new way with even more trust. 

Let’s check in: 

1. What’s something you’ve been challenged by recently? 
2. What is this challenge teaching you? Where is life calling you to grow right now? What could you own even more of within yourself that could help you uplevel into even more of what you want? 
3. What do you need to feel safe consistently? Is that answer within your control? If not, what can you take ownership of? 
4. How do you find your flow through disagreements? Do you have a consistent practice?
