Meet your delightfully rebellious heart. Say hello to Thanksgiving. While you are at it, make a wave at the end of the year and add on a big scoop of what it’s like to ride on the tails of a contentious election.
Eeeek, right?!?!
I mean with a combination like this—-you know the highly flammable kind—-the type that creates what we will call an inflamed situation—is likely to spontaneously combust at any time with hurt feelings, lash outs, and backed up emotion tension. Yes, for times like these, it might be best to just give yourself permission to back away from the situation and assess from another vantage point.
So let’s do that together…And while we are at it, let’s just admit that maybe right now—-at at a time in which everyone (maybe you are even participating in this too by some degree) is telling us to just be grateful—-maybe you are honestly finding that a little tough these days…
Perhaps you are concerned about what is happening at Standing Rock. Maybe you feel guilty about enjoying a big huge meal when you think about where Thanksgiving really came from and the exploitation of the Native American people. Maybe it bothers you because you do not eat meat and meat is kind of the focal point of the meal. Maybe you are annoyed with others who keep pointing out problems that you have no idea how to solve…
You might even be stressed about the results and fall out of the election. Maybe you just really want to unplug and you are are not looking forward to spending time with loved ones who see things differently from how you see them.
Yet, even in all of this, there is still a part of you—-a big part—-that simply wants to be at peace with yourself and be free…Maybe this Thanksgiving, you want to have a nice meal and you want to enjoy yourself, and love everyone around you, and maybe—-since you are a love renegade at heart—-you want to do it on your terms and not be fake…
Does any of this sound familiar? 🙂
These are just a few of the different expressions of the conundrum of the heart-centered, people-oriented, and highly conscious individual.
You really see things from such an elevated and unique point-of-view. You are truly wired to shed light and offer comfort to others. This is such a beautiful position to be in, but maybe it is especially hard right now.
Do you feel stuck when it comes to receiving love?
Do you feel like others do not appreciate you or listen to you?
Do you find yourself being resentful of others?
Do you find yourself being hard on yourself?
Have you been feeling especially critical lately?
If you answered yes, then I would like you to acknowledge that your rebel heart is begging for your attention. Listen to your heart by really feeling into the questions below…What would your love life, relationships, and life in general be like if you…
…Released self-judgement?
…Embraced your desire to attract and receive love?
…Experienced healing?
Right now you might be thinking, OK Lauren, that all makes sense, but I am not sure how.
One way that I can personally assist you is through a service I offer called a healing elixir, a long-distance energy healing treatment that will help you release resentment and fear and open your heart, mind, and body to LOVE and the power of your heart’s journey.
In a healing elixir, you will experience newfound confidence from the wisdom of your rebel heart and discover a clear path to how you can love yourself while loving others and allowing yourself the freedom and space to receive love by stepping out of fear with A.) an energy healing treatment facilitated by me and activated by you B.) a written reading filled with loving soul wisdom and insight into your heart’s journey and loving intuitive advice that is grounded in universal law on how you can attract more love C.) and a 30 minute PRIVATE session with me that is a total love fest all about you! 🙂
I am so passionate about my healing elixir service and I absolutely love giving healing elixirs to amazing heart-centered people like you!
So if you feel like it is time to practice some radical self love and say YES to receiving and attracting love and to truly show yourself some love and gratitude, then please: will you do me the honor of receiving a healing elixir? If your answer is yes, invest in yourself with a healing elixir today by clicking on the link below.
After I receive notification of your payment, I will reach out to you via email to schedule your healing elixir and to obtain information that I need to create it.
In the meantime, I am sending you lots of love. Please know that t I am deeply grateful for you. Because of you, I get to connect with you at least once or twice a month with love renegade advice on how you can have your best relationship and experience love—-on your terms.
Before I go, I want to reiterate that getting a healing elixir is all about you. Many of us heart-centered people feel weird about investing in ourselves. Some of us may find it highly uncomfortable when we are going through a hard time. Regardless of where you’re personally at right now, with all of the things you could buy for Black Friday, be a love renegade and give yourself this gift of healing. Like attracts like and choosing to love you always benefits you and everyone around you.
Imagine that you and I are in a fight. In this moment, you hear about all of the ways in which you are deficient. You are reminded of all of your failures as a light shines brightly on a lot on all of your inadequacies.
OMG! Don’t I just sound like the worst person in the world?!
Let’s continue with this scenario and pretend—just for a moment—that because, I am in fact *the worst, you choose to cut me out of your life and never ever speak to me again. You choose to unfriend me. You gossip about me. You call me abusive. Maybe you let everyone know that it is because of me (and how awful I am) that you will never ever succeed in love or in life.
And that really, really sucks. 🙁
Because we were never in a fight. All you did was ask for my opinion, my feedback on the situation. You asked me why things—-your relationships, your health, etc—-were not turning out in your favor, and I told you the truth.
I was not even “brutally honest” with you. I simply facilitated some support in connecting the dots as to why A+B (and C and D) has brought you to the outcome that you are currently experiencing.In the moment of truth—-of LIGHT—-you blamed me and made everything my fault.
The only person who ever brought judgement into this interaction was YOU.
Of course the “you” I address to is not you—-not specifically anyway…Instead I speak to the little you, your ego—-or Junior as I like to call it. Everyone, no matter how empowered or spiritual they think they are, has a Junior. In fact, my first spiritual teacher once told me “the bigger the spirit, the bigger the ego.”
Yes, my friend, my Junior is pretty freakin big! 🙂 (And my spirit is really big and vibrant and bright and shiny too!!)
And I am grateful for my big ass Junior. Why? Because if it were not for the massive victim consciousness of an illusion that I used to be entrenched in, I would not be where I am today.
See, I used to be someone who would blame others for my circumstances. For every relationship that did not work out, it was the other person’s fault. For every obstacle I encountered, it was always because I was at a disadvantage or because I did not have A, B, or C. I also used to get really, really down on myself. I was so mean and hateful to myself. I made myself wrong for anything good that I tried to do.
One day, I got really, really tired of it all. I was completely over myself. I decided to break free of all of the junk. I chose to break free from the mindless repression of the status quo.
In a moment of truth, I chose to BE RESPONSIBLE.
Responsibility is a word that many of us free spirit types may cringe when we hear it…This and that annoying word “discipline” go hand-in-hand. But responsibility really is sexy. Let me tell you why and first let’s start with what is NOT attractive and sexy.
It is not sexy (unless you are into that whole damsel-in-distress nonsense) to be helpless, powerless, and wounded. If there is any part of you that wants to be rescued or feels that everything would just get a whole lot better if so-and-so behaved in the way that you wanted them to behave, I ask you: how do you want others to feel when they are around you?
If you want people to truly want to spend time with you, be with you, and appreciate you, then YOU get to be someone they would want to spend time with!
Honestly, do you enjoy being around someone who complains constantly? (Does misery really love company? lol) Are you someone who constantly places blame on others? Are you someone who always has a problem? Are you always talking or thinking about what a failure you are?
In case you were detecting any judgement in my tone, I am asking you to recognize this as your own judgment. (We are not in a fight, remember?) I am simply connecting with you, from a place of love, on how you can have the relationship that you long for and the results that you love…
…Which leads me into another possibly more serious aspect of this conversation…
Often when a person is complaining and crying about how badly they are treated by others and how disillusioned they are within their relationships, it sheds light onto all of the ways in which that person has blocked herself from receiving love.
Can you see how it is an act of self-love to admit that maybe you have been blocking you from receiving and attracting love?
Trust me, even if it appears to be unconventional or inconvenient or feels uncomfortable, taking responsibility for your circumstances makes you a highly attractive person. To be responsible is to love yourself and to embrace life. Like attracts like. If you love you, you create love within and around you. You become a love bug!! 🙂
OK back to me——
When I chose to accept and embrace every single problem in my life as an opportunity for peace, healing, and transformation, my life transformed. My heart expanded. My love life became really, really good.
Choosing to be responsible is a choice to truly heal. It is healing all of the parts of yourself that you may have abandoned.
It was NOT an easy choice for me to make, but when I looked in the mirror, I did not like who I had become.
In that moment, I made a new choice. I chose to be responsible. I chose love. I chose to heal.
And you can too….And look, I don’t care how evolved you are or how much “work” you have already done, everyone can stand to grow and transform just a bit more. To think that you are “done evolving” simply is not true. It is an illusion that is made to keep you exactly where you are, when in fact, there is always an opportunity for love. For expansion. Healing is love. Love is part of expansion.
In this moment, I want to offer you an opportunity. This opportunity is to have a healing elixir with me. A healing elixir is a very sexy service that I offer that includes a loving and empowering energy healing treatment, a written reading from me filled with divine messages that are intended to support YOU on your healing journey, and a 30 minute processing session with me.
In a healing elixir, you will discover and become enlightened to the following:
Your infinite potential
Specific opportunities to choose love over fear
Healing guidance from your spirit guides and angels
When I wake up in the morning, my first thought is “I can’t wait! Let’s do this!” Years ago if you would have told me that I would be jumping at the chance to get out of bed and get to work: I would have responded with a combination of amusement, intrigue, suspicion and disbelief!
But that was before I chose to completely heal my broken heart through connecting with my soul. That was before I chose to listen to my inner wisdom, follow my heart, and ruthlessly abide by my own advice!
The day I chose to follow my heart, everything changed. My relationships shifted. My confidence grew. I got rid of all the meanies, the naysayers—-the toxic people in my life—-and now I am IN LOVE with life!
Each morning, I have an incredible amount of gratitude for my sexy entrepreneur husband and our adorable pets! I love that I have chosen to truly LIVE a life that exudes LOVE and to have this reflected to me in my relationship with my husband and in what we have created together!
Before I used to be overcome with grief at all the manipulation, disruption, and deception in the world.
Now my heart glows when I notice an illusion or a manipulation. Why? Because I know that if I can see it, I get to voice it and choose not to buy into it! By shedding light or guiding another person into making a new choice—-a love-based and soul-driven choice—-the illusion loses power and the person sets themselves free!
What I found is that love is not always fluffy and cuddly. Love is often telling someone the truth or setting a clear boundary.
Love is the greatest healer that way, and the healing process can be messy. Things often come to light that we do not like. We can either choose to ignore this or be intimated by it or sweep it under the rug OR we can choose to be courageous and TRANSFORM the situation.
Courage is the vehicle of love!
On the flip side, my heart breaks when I watch someone—-who knows better—-choose fear over love, because they have bought into an illusion that they have no other choice. This really, really bothers me, but I deal with it through knowing that I have done my part by showing them the illusion and communicating new options of response to them.
I often joke about how my clients are all better than me. They are heart-centered, loving people who are fiercely committed to having their best relationships—-on their terms——and being the change they want to see in the world.
More than anything, I care about empowering my clients to heal—-like really heal from the inside out—-and to have the healing positively impact their relationship with themselves—-more self-love, self-trust, and grounded self-confidence—-and of course: to have this really sexy energy reflected back to them in their love life too!
In my world, intuition is an absolute necessity. Sure, a person (most people actually) can get through life using only reason and following research and opinions of other “experts” but without intuition and a clear connection to your heart and inner wisdom, discernment and intention can be muddled.
It takes a strong person to follow their heart and think for themselves!
It takes an even stronger person to go deep into the depths of their psyche and to heal their heart and soul. Breaking free of the status quo and healing is always a fabulous idea. It is the most high vibe act of rebellion there is!!
Doing something the “right way” or someone else’s way is overrated and sweeping everything under the rug is an ultimate no. It is the easy and yet soul-crushing way out. It is saying that you have nothing unique to contribute, that you are too weak to connect with your true feelings, and that what you care about most is tip-toeing to the grave.
That is NOT LOVE. That is fear!
When I die, I want to be remembered as a person who didn’t hold back. A person who loved fiercely and courageously and did not let anyone—-not even herself—-off the hook!
And who inspired others to heal, break free, and REVOLT FOR LOVE!
How does my manifesto make you feel? How will you revolt for love today? One way you can revolt for love is by shedding light on the love myths that hold YOU back. I can help you do this with a Love Myth Breakthrough Session. Find out more by clicking here.
The two sentences that scared the absolute SHIT OUT OF ME were now out. In full view. On the table. Front and center.
Terror ran through my body. I braced myself, closed my eyes, and waited…What would happen next?
His response surprised me…
“That’s OK. We can wait. Whenever you are ready.”
The emotional build up I felt in my heart turned to tears. I couldn’t stop crying. I was shaking. Was I relieved? Was I in shock?
Five years later, I know now that what I felt was love.
Not the mere feeling of love or the addictive illusion of it. What I felt was the big type of love. The kind that heals. The kind that transforms. The type of love where you experience an envelope of complete acceptance, grace, and safety: the type of love that creates miracles.
And, a miracle, I did create. I spoke my truth. I chose courage.
Like many of my clients and maybe even you specifically, I had a pattern of not checking in with myself before I made decisions. Instead of asking my heart for advice and checking in with my own inner wisdom, I would often go along with what the other person wanted. I was afraid of making my own choices. I did not trust myself.
And you know what? I paid the consequences. Choosing to go along with what others wanted me to do only led to resentment, burnout, and a continual pattern of what happens when a person constantly refuses to trust themselves.
Can you relate?
A new level of empowerment beckoned me. On this level, I would know to listen to my inner authority and my hear t. I would choose to be authentic and trust myself.
This was not an easy choice. I knew that my choice was no doubt going to disappoint people. The thought of hurting another person made me feel nauseated, but now was an opportunity to choose my own way.
In doing so, I let other people down. My choice to call off the wedding really hurt my mom. And that killed me…but you know what? We all moved through it….Eventually. 🙂
And you know what else? Today, on October 27th, Daniel and I celebrate our forth wedding anniversary together.
The moral of the story is that right now, you might be at a cross roads. You might be afraid of hurting someone’s feelings. You might be stuck in fear. You might be going along with what others want because you are afraid of living your own truth. You might be suffering needlessly from not trusting yourself.
Whatever it is, I urge you to choose love. This is a courageous choice. It is not always easy.
How will you choose love today?
And just in case an answer does not immediately pop into your heart, I have enclosed a few more questions for you to support you in courageously choosing love.
Have you ever made yourself do something that you did not want to do simply because you said you would?
What were the results of that choice?
Are you experiencing the results of those choices now?
What change do you want to make that you are afraid to make?
Today, I invite you to treat yourself to a few minutes of quiet time to connect with your heart as you answer these questions.
And if you like, you can always reach out to me with your answers or any follow-up questions that you have to this article. I love hearing from you.
You have been dating someone for awhile. This person is super into you. It may even feel like they like you a little more than you like them. They start using words like “forever” and “always” with you.
It’s romantic and it’s sweet, but maybe it makes your stomach turn, just a little.
Or maybe—-on the other side of things—-you are so super, head over heels—- in lust or love with somebody. You feel like this person completely understands you. You feel like you two are meant to be. You want FOREVER with this person.
Does either one sound familiar to you?
Like most people, I too have fallen into the myth of forever and I gotta tell ya…Despite its romantic and whimsical nature, “forever” is a slippery slope.
I created a video just for you where I shed light on this love myth.
Is there a topic that you want me to cover? Is there a question about love and relationships that you want me to answer? Go ahead and submit it here: https://laurenkaywyatt.com/ask-lauren/
You stand there, seething. Clenching your fists and grinding your teeth. The adrenaline pulsates throughout your body. Your heart is pounding. You feel yourself about to boil over.
Then, your voice begins to shake. Are those tears? Oh no! What were you going to say? The feelings that you have in your body can somehow not make their way into words. Instead, you are standing there feeling humiliated and unsupported.
What you are experiencing right now is a cross roads. While you may not realize it at this moment, this challenge is an opportunity to heal and step into your power—-to be the badass love renegade that you are!!
Even if you feel like life is totally unfair right now—-even if you have been rejected—-Even as you endure your heartbreak, I want you to know that you have choice.
This is your “make or break” moment!!
This is your opportunity to practice unconVENtional love!
Let me back up a bit…
When it comes to “love” and our intimate relationships, a lot of buttons can be pushed. Whether it is with your partner or a date gone wrong—what once brought you so much excitement and joy—is now seen as a source of pain.
How do you deal?
If you are like most people, you go into either fight or flight mode. This is completely human, and it is a combination of the following:
Lashing out
Feeling victimized
Shutting down
Neglecting yourself
Trying to make the situation better at all costs
Seeking approval
Struggling to effectively communicate your feelings
The good news is that the way you deal with fight or flight is they key to transforming your relationship karma and healing your love life.
This is unconventional love in action.
By practicing unconventional love, you reclaim your relationship with love. You become a master in transforming your love life from a battle field and into your own personal field of dreams.
What does it feel like you to you?
Does it sound easier said than done?
Does this perspective feel a little too airy-fairy for you?
Or maybe, this possibility terrifies you.
Even if you are afraid, will you still choose to step into your power and make your way to an empowered path of healing?
This is why I made a new video.
In this video, I will NOT tell you to “turn the other cheek.” Instead I will walk you through how you can begin to create your best relationship—-on your terms—-by practicing unconVENtional love.
After you watch the video, please feel free to comment or reach out to me with any feedback. I sincerely love empowering you to break the laws of love, heal your heart, and be the badass love renegade that you are.
Something has been nudging at my heart for a while now. I have reflected on it. Written about it. Meditated on it. Now, I am following my inner authority to “go public” with it.
While it may not be completely original, the perspective that I am guided to share with you is not popular.
It goes against much of what we, as spiritually-conscious and heart-centered people, are taught and what many of us accept as Truth.
My discovery has to do with uncovering another love myth. A love myth is something that appears to be true, but in reality: what it actually does is block love.
I made a video for you where I begin to shed light on the love myth of unconditional love.
As a Love Renegade, I am committed to evolving. I am committed to breaking free of what no longer serves me and shedding light on what I feel suppresses and represses many of us.
You are welcome to dismiss this video, embrace it, or reject it completely. And that is just fine. Free will makes our world a colorful, interesting, and diverse place.
A little over a week ago, Danny and I returned from Europe. It is an understatement to say that our time together was expansive and magical. During the trip, I could feel so much transforming and shifting within me. I knew that I would never be the same again, and now I might be in a little bit of a conundrum.
See, all of the new energies and insights I received have not made their way into word form yet. In fact, if I tried, everything that I had to share might not make the most sense! It might even feel forced.
For these reasons, I have chosen to do something that I am not very good at. I am choosing to wait.
Here’s the thing about waiting. Waiting does not mean doing nothing. It does not mean assuming that things will just fall into your lap. It does not mean meditating or praying your way into a new reality. (These behaviors can lead to frustration, disappointment, and heartache.)
Instead, waiting is a form of accepting and receiving whereby you get to simply be. When in a state of waiting, you get to take note of your environment and notice your feelings, emotions, and options on what you are experiencing and attracting.
To wait is pay attention. To wait is to listen.
When we are in this period of waiting, we are invited to heal. Through the healing process, we can acknowledge our desires. Through healing, we release all blocks us from bringing our desire into our reality.
For instance, do you desire a new relationship? Or a new dynamic within your current relationship? During this process, do you feel like nothing you are doing is working? Do you feel frustrated and stuck?
If you answered yes, then please consider that you might be in a period of waiting. The Universe and your higher self are asking you to look within and to observe your circumstances in a new way. You are being invited to heal so that you can have the new experience that you desire.
Greetings from a Europe-bound plane! In the nearly eight years that Daniel and I have been together, this is our first international trip together.
A dear friend—someone who I met when I was eight-years-old and who went to Catechism with me—is getting married in Dresden, Germany! I cannot wait to celebrate her very special day with her! During our time in Europe, Daniel and I will explore Prague and Budapest too.
As I reflect on this, I have tears in my eyes. See, years ago I declared that I wanted to explore with Daniel. This included exploring our inner worlds together, healing and transforming together, and co-manifestation. My dream life also includes travel and having a business that reflects my soul’s true essence…
Today is the day that I realized that all of this has come to fruition. I am humbled and overcome by love and appreciation.
I bring this up, not to brag, but to shed light on how this all came into being. I did not “get lucky.” I simply chose manifest my desire. To quote Paulo Coelho from my favorite book, TheAlchemist, “when you want something, all of the Universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”
What do you desire? What is in your heart? What does your dream life and your best relationship look and feel like? In your desire, how are you spending your time?
Please know anything that you desire is within reach. It is only a few choices away. I used to make achieving my desire so much harder than it actually was. I had so many excuses about why I could not have what I wanted. I allowed these excuses to hold me back. I would feel like no matter what I did, it would never work or be good enough.
But one day, I made a new choice. I chose to heal and let go of all of the energetic baggage that was keeping me from having my best relationship with Daniel and from being in love with life.
You can have your own version of this, and I can show you the path to get there. This path is called the empowered path of healing. It is accessed by the following:
Acknowledging your desire
Embracing your challenges
Choosing to heal and transcend
Making soul-driven choices
Taking love-based actions
The empowered path of healing looks different for each person as all of us are unique expressions of the Divine. For this reason, I have created the Uniquely You: Empowered Path of Healing Startup Program. Here are some of the benefits of the program:
Healing from the inside out—gain insight into spiritual blocks, your Divine strengths, and unique roadmap to have all that you desire and more
Higher frequency of attraction—when you allow your soul self to shine, you are more connected to the Divine and open to seeing and receiving gifts from the Universe
Heightened intuition, self-love, and self-trust—Reconnecting to your true source of power: your soul
Releasing energetic baggage—when you let go of what holds you back, you empower yourself to access everything that you need to manifest your desires
Clarity on next steps—components of the program give you a uniquely you roadmap outlining who you get to be and what you can do to create a life and relationship that you love
Here is the structure of the Uniquely You: Empowered Path of Healing Program:
It begins with a soul reading from me. In this 90 minute session, delivered by phone, you will gain insight into:
Who you are at soul-level. These are your soul-level gifts and talents, and your soul purpose. Embracing these gifts will allow you to heal and create a relationship and life that you love.
Practical application of these gifts to your relationships, your love life, your career, etc. to assist you in creating a life that reflects your soul’s true essence.
The energetic blocks that are holding you back from having a life that you love—if you know what is holding you back, you are empowered to change the situation through being your soul-self. (Value $597)
This service also comes with a unique 21 day prayer practice and energy clearing work to empower you to make love-based and soul-driven choices.
Approximately three weeks later, you will receive a healing elixir, a powerful energy healing treatment that is delivered long-distance as you sleep where you will wake up feeling recharged, empowered, and loved. More Divine insights and messages from your Spirit Guides will make their way to you in a unique written report created just for you. (This report will be emailed to you, the morning after your healing elixir.)
After receiving both your soul reading and healing elixir, you will receive a 3o minute follow-up session to further assist you on your empowered path of healing.
The Uniquely You: Empowered Path of Healing Program is delivered in six weeks. In that time, you will be able to receive guidance and support from me via email. This will support you in integrating all that you receive from both the soul reading and the healing elixir into your relationships and life.
The value of this program is over $997, but until July 31, 2016, it can be yours for $697.
After you purchase your Uniquely You: Empowered Path of Healing Program, I will be in touch with you within 24-48 hours to schedule your soul reading and to obtain information that I need in order to deliver this program to you.
*Please know that your information will be kept confidential and treated with love and care.
Have you ever felt like it was time to give up? When you hear the phrase, “give up” what comes into your heart? Do you feel angry? Does it make you want to fight harder? Does it enlist a feeling helplessness?
If you are…
Single and have been in the process of finding your best relationship for awhile now
Feeling heartbroken from a breakup
Experiencing frustration at the dating process
Yearning to heal your relationship karma
Desire your best relationship with your partner
It could be time for a different type of reaction and new types of choices. Perhaps it time to experience surrender instead?
Whatever your response or situation, know this: Giving up does not mean giving in. Instead, reframe “giving up” as a conscious choice of surrender. When you choose to surrender, you are choosing freedom. When we are free in our relationships, we reclaim our personal power. This allows us to be our most recharged selves in our relationships.
In order to free yourself from negativity in your love life, you must be willing to heal. As this is not the easiest thing to do, I have created a video to assist you in the following:
Acknowledging frustration, anger, pain, and heartbreak that you are feeling
Using these emotions as a gateway to healing
Transforming personal fear into love for optimal healing
Healing is an act of love. Love is the greatest healer. When we heal, we are empowered to have our best relationships.
How does this video make you feel?
And just to shed a little more light on how we can choose love and an empowered path of healing—even with the most recent current events…
Even in this time of tragedy and senseless violence, I am making a conscious choice to acknowledge the highest potential and love spark in humanity.
In times like this, it is not always easy, but know this: no matter how heartbroken and maybe even hopeless we may feel by current events, please know that you matter.
While it may feel small or like it is “not good enough,” each time you smile and allow yourself to fully experience the beauty of the moment…for every hug you give and receive, for every time you choose love over fear, you are acting as a part of the solution. You are powerful, loved, and lovable.
I mean with a combination like this—-you know the highly flammable kind—-the type that creates what we will call an inflamed situation—is likely to spontaneously combust at any time with hurt feelings, lash outs, and backed up emotion tension. Yes, for times like these, it might be best to just give yourself permission to back away from the situation and assess from another vantage point.
