Today I had a bit of a test sent to me via a
client who came in seeking some advice..I must admit I didnt have my
"nice ghost lady" hat on and in hindsight I could have been a little
more gentle with this person but I had to dissolve a lot of fear from
this person having dabbled in things that were totally inappropriate in
their very sensitive state, having just suffered quite a major event in
the
ir life. I told it like I saw it
and... as it wasnt very fluffy, sage filled and crystal encrusted it did
not go down well. I was looked at as if I was stupid.
Sometimes these things go beyond anything that sage can fix - vulnerable people need the truth and not be strung along. When they think that they cannot cope, its heavy duty fixing time which means that not only does it involve someone who can take the situation by the short and curly's but who can also inform the client that they will have to work on their own protection and psychological wellbeing so that they do not remain vulnerable and fearful.Yes..we do work on this together..
Maybe I was a bit too tough...but thats just the way I do it. No bullshit, no fancy bells and whistles and knowing when to say that some things are out of my league and I need help. Thank goodness it has not gotten to that point yet ( although I have asked for help and advice on many occasions) but we are dealing with things that, sometimes, we just dont know what will happen next..things that can be dark and horrible coming from not only the dead but those that are still alive..- thats why I am still learning, why each experience is still a test and as confident as I may feel I am I can NEVER afford to be too cocky cause thats when you get bitten in the backside.
