Attunement & Bypassing
12/3/2023
After a long break, with a lot of inner processing and exploration, I've felt inspired to share what has been a core learning on this journey.
In this episode, I describe what attunement is, and overlay IFS terms onto it. I talk about why attunement is so important, especially for people of colour, and I introduce the concept of bypassing.
The inspiration and importance of this, for me, is to provide you all with the wisdom of attunement to support things that are important to you. As I advocate for a #freepalestine and an end of the occupation, current genocide and white settler colonialism, this process of attunement has supported me immensely.
A quick note* because of course upon listening, I recognize what I didn't say: 1) this is not meant to shame or guilt those of you who have been experiencing burnout, or actually need rest (and unapologetic rest); attune to that with care, step back when you need, etc.. 2) we are not meant to hold these big things alone, even (especially) those in helping roles. Community and Spirit is even more important for these times. We heal in community.
