People are afraid of the extreme pain they felt as a child from their parents withdrawing their love whenever they took steps towards autonomy.
And why would a parent do this?
Because it triggered painful emotion(s) in them … and as a result they shut down the child.
Withdrawal of love by the parent equates to death to a child. So the child quickly learns to give up their soul and develop behaviors, or avoid behaviors, that might result in the parents disapproval or anger (which is the parent avoiding their own painful emotions).
As a child I had a emotionally weak, emotionally damaged, non existent father.
And a mother who constantly told me that “I can’t do this. You can’t do that” right up to my mid 40’s.
At which point I fully figured out my mother knew next to nothing about what she was talking about. But that she had convinced me as a child she did.
But now my challenge as an adult (58 years now) is to move through the terror feeling I feel in my solar plexus that I numbed and distracted from most of my life.
I know it’s the avoidance of this terror feeling that holds me back.
Even though I am fully confident in my abilities, talents and previous successes to be able to achieve my goals.
My fear of expressing my power is directly related to my family. I was always told that if i go after what i want, the result will hurt them. This led me to depressions and desperate decisions.
Sorry to hear that 🙏🏻🫂 I hope that today, having the awarness of that, you are working and taking steps towards your Real, loving power ❤
That is how they control you. They do not love you, they do what is good for them even when they hurt you. Why then you care if you hurt them back??. Another reason, even bigger one is: if you go for what you want you will need to take full responsability for your own life and decisions. Staying home, you always can say everything is bad because of them, not you. Third reason is that you maybe do not want this so much, so the risk of taking responsability would be much higher then final result. Think about all this!
Omg so relatable
Power is purely and totally spiritual alone.
I learned that the day I encountered a mighty Satanical-demon-demi-god who had my life in his hands. It was the day I also learned that spirituality is my wife.
I'm not a normal human.
Me too
you just blew my mind cause I'm constantly battling myself about trying not to make other people feel insecure if I display my most authentic self, and so Instead I find myself playing small because I don't want others feel bad about themselves but I'm literally doing it to myself , so weird how its all interconnected..
I love your consistent ability to straight talk through the BS out there. Honestly, nobody is doing this quite like you do. Thanks for your continued sharing of wisdom.
I feel so similar to Magi’s example, I learned to survive and feel save by minimising myself around people..
Finally! Someone combating the idea of 'fear of success'!
This makes so much sense, Teal. When I was a kid, if anyone showed confidence around my mom, she would call them conceited. She loathedpeople who had any kind of confidence in themselves. Also, the only time she ever paid attention to me was when I was physically ill, so that was encouraged. Every time I tried to do something new, she would tell me that I wouldn’t be able to do it which made me fearful. Also, I know about myself that if I don’t try to do the things I really want to do then I can keep them as a dream and not risk the chance of failure. The older I get the more I see that dreams are not fulfilling - reality is. As usual, you’re absolutely right and I can’t count the number of therapists who have told me that I am afraid of my own power. Your words makes total sense. Thank you again for sharing your wisdom with us. You’re invaluable. 💕💕
Either be afraid, or be powerful.
The God Phobos approves of your message.
You are just Awesome ❤
I am from India
I have been following you from 2015 . I was chronically depressed and suicidal.
I was abused as a child , as a teenager and as an adult by my own blood relative.
I was in my lowest vibration all the time . I just followed Teal I read all her books .
I am here today as best version of myself ❤
Thank you for that 😊
I am a therapist and I have always thought that being afraid of your own power made no sense. It's a neat little thing to say to someone in the moment because it might make them feel better about themselves, but it does nothing to move them forward.
You are so insightful Teal.
I hope I can meet you some day.
This is spot on- it's the "why" behind people being afraid of their power- it isn't power itself, but the negative impacts of threatening others, inspiring jealousy. At the root I'm seeing an opportunity for someone to not even embrace but become "okay" with being disliked.
Or the underlying fear could be that, if you are given power, you are afraid you will become a monster with it, and hurt others. Because you have seen people who were given power, and have abused that power to abuse you.
Recent realization that I’ve had is that whatever happens on the outside is waaaayyyy less important than I think it is. Decreasing the importance of what’s happening outside of my control is an ongoing practice
This explain my whole life, I've been so afraid of going for what I want because if I do, it feels as if the whole world will abandon me and go against me, yet, this same world I've been stuck in, hurts far more than the promise that the risk I'm about take, the promise of people actually caring about me, having financial freedom and just freedom on when I got to sleep, JUST THAT EVEN.
This is something I will run at, I can't bear a world that doesn't see me, hear me or feel me, it hurts too much, I can't take it anymore.
I want to share how this fear manifests on my life… I can’t physically be happy around my parents, I wake up in a great mood everyday, I love my life, but as soon as I encounter one of them my body is turning into a depressed mode or feeling bored, anything within the lower vibration scale… it’s so weird how I feel so much happiness inside but I have to keep it hidden 😅 I’m trying to work things out, thank you for whoever is reading this 🤗
I have been saying this forever! This notion of fearing your own power always seemed counterintuitive to me. It never made sense to me. Thank you for making this video!!
Hello 👋 RUBY
May goodness and happiness surround you all the time, and may sadness never locate you. Which state are you if I may ask??
Thank you so much Teal for helping me see why I'm like a people pleasing type of person. I'm afraid of being disliked, perceived as a treat and banished from my social network. But it's awfully not being free. I want to be more authentic.
Thank you for showing me the way
I relate to this so much! Ive worked on my people pleassing tendencies for a While, I can tell you that it does not feel that bad When someone dislikes or disagrees with you! It really is not terrible and it feels waaaay better -a 300%_ to be in peace with yourself everyday, than giving someone a moment of comfort that they didn't even noticed.
I read a Book called " The courage to be disliked" I highly recommend. Also, "The subtle art of Not giving a F***" lol
Those two books helped gain and solidify my perspective on What freedom really is.
Big hugs and good Luck in your journey ❤
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences! I will definitely get the books! It's somehow nice knowing I'm not alone 💗
OMG, I love this! Teal, can you please elaborate on this concrete example a bit more? I would love to see how one could overcome the fear you mentioned in this specific scenario! I think I am Maggie from this story, I am afraid that if I will become bigger, brighter, I will attract envious, ill-willing people and keeping myself small will protect me from being sabotaged and disliked.
I can relate to your comment a lot
Me too! @@andziagreen4922

@KelvinRaymond989
My current state is that of chocolate cake. One of the better states if I do say so my self.
Hi 🙂 Well, I'm not Teal, but I think that maybe I can bring you an answer that can help you! I was also recently in this kind of situation, that looks like Maggie's story. I identified the different roles that I was playing with my family, to get their attention, and I realised that I was often afraid to be selfconfident, to show my talents, to say No when I wanted to, to assert my point of view on some subjects, because I knew that they would show competitiveness, rejection, humiliation. Why ? Because of their jealousy, and the fear of losing all the energy that I was giving them for free and that they were never giving back to me. So, what did I do ? Detach from the need to feel loved and recognized by them. Sacrify my relationships with them, because they almost never brought me happiness. And I felt a big release by doing that. Now, I'm gonna move in a area far from them, and live my life without feeling these fears anymore. And that, is priceless ☺ Because when you overcome the fear of something, and just trust that you deserve to be loved and seen for who you are, you won't attract these situations anymore, and if it sometimes happen, you won't really care anymore. Stand up for yourself. Do whatever you want to do, or to say, if it feels good for you. And don't be afraid to loose people in the process, even close ones... The right people will find you, have faith 🥰
I had a pass life regression and in both pass lives, I was so powerful that it resulted in me being kicked out and ostracized from my community. So I feel this! And I also understand why this lifetime I’ve been more hesitant to fully step out in my purpose. Makes so much sense! Thanks, Teal!
Omg....I wasn't ready for this. Yes, I am afraid of the responsibility and discipline and facing obstacles on the path towards what I want to create. That is enough to have to face! But yes--the biggest fear is not being supported, being seen as a threat, diminished, etc. This happened to me as a child; I was scapegoated into playing small. Today I am dealing with the same with my family....just this week as a matter of fact. Wow...thank you for bringing that to the forefront, Teal!!❤❤❤🙏🏾🙏🏾
I totally relate. I don't fear my power. I know in my town I'm one of the top musicians but many of my good friends are musicians also. I don't want to create any jealousy or making anybody feel like I'm being competitive. I especially don't want to come off like an ego maniac but I know I'm one of the best and I'm pretty certain that I'm seen as a threat to other good musicians.
I have incredible power. I'm like the girl you said(Maggie) who put herself down to be included.
Scape goat skills *
But I am getting lost a lot. I use my power and then relised I hurt my self by gaslighting myself and then everyone else gaslight me. So I am really trying to stop doing that. Now I feel like everyone hates me and don't understand me. But I can see finally how I made my own bed. Being alone and misunderstood is my worst nightmare and I am relieving it again right now. First time was 15 years ago and I was a child so I don't think I'm at fault there. I hope there is only up from here.
I hope my old family and friends will see who I am. I don't think they will. 💔
What a huge mirror this is.
This exactly what is playing out at the moment.
Thank you Teal 🙏
Teal! I needed to hear this now! Thank you!
Love this. The moment I decided to go for it 😂🔥 I got to understand this concept. Most of us are afraid of the impact of success. Thank you for putting it into words
In case You'd Rather Read About It Instead: tealswan.com/resources/articles/power/
Woke up and said let’s watch some teal swan for the soul
How can you resolve the fear of being scapegoated? Would love to see an episode on it!
Guys it is INSANELY INSANE!!!!
this video uploaded right in time i realised my power and my fear of my power,'cause my comfort zone is the prison of learned helplessness ,and i was in gratitude for the information and guidance i recieve! Sorry for my English...I love all of you!!!! Keep going! ❤🙏🇬🇷
You just sound lazy.
An argument could be made that "afraid of own power" means - fear of deciding to go through with the plan, which would result in energy being routed through the neurocognitive circuits underlying the "project" experience. But if results don't match expectations, this would result in predictive error cascades/increase in psychological entropy, and sharp feeling of dread, that would in turn trigger error cascades throughout other identities, triggering depression. So in short, it is "power" that the person is afraid, power here is merely free energy gradient actively inferred and converted in to electrochemical energy which can either strengthen your synaptic connections or wreak absolute havoc, depending on the accuracy of your outcome predictions. Thus it's safer to actually fail as long as that's in line with your beliefs.
So fkn brilliant. I feel so called out in the best possible ways. Thank you Teal! You are the meta of meta. xo
Spot on. I have been afraid of judgement, being disliked or making enemies due to jealousy if I fully express myself or use my abilities.
Wow, this is a seriously powerful truth. Thank you for this clarity
You have fabulous insight Teal, and I really needed to hear this. I am the person playing myself down to make others feel safe. Thank you x
Teal you speak such truth. The world so needs you. Keep safe ❤
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Teal ❤
What is leading to so called ”unwanted” experiences? Suppressing, denying physical, mental, emotional needs, desires. Suppressing, denying what we are. Solution: embrace, express instead. Thank you Teal 🌎
Some people aiming for the stars, then they fail or success. Finally they will fail and hold back. Others only want winning situations with playing safe and never fail. In both case it will end up in boundaries.
Yes. correct. Thank you for sharing 🌈
May this year into the next be the final shedding of analyzing how uncomfortable people are and blaming myself. I’ve been going into being too overwhelmed or too intense myself, and my CNS just wants to find people who get what it is like, but not like try to save them from the stuff I went through anymore. That’s where I put my value - in talking people down from suicide every blue moon.
May goodness and happiness surround you all the time, and may sadness never locate you. Which state are you if I may ask??
This video came at the perfect time.
My greatest fear is that I am too inadequate in preparation for my goal as an activist… something that I deem impossible but necessary.
However, if I were to encounter that I had a greater sense of power, I would take full advantage of it!
Nonetheless, my greater encouragement is what I have discovered via personal studies, and my goal to manifest something that is insanely impossible!
I’m 35 and still haven’t pursued my dream of being a performing musician. I know I have everything it takes. But I feel like I’m not allowed to. I’m not allowed to do it. It’s not okay. It’s not safe. I also feel like my music is my most precious and sacred part of myself and I’m terrified to have it desecrated by not just random people, but by the negative reactions of my family. I feel like the only time I will feel safe to be myself is when my entire family is gone. I am moving away soon and I’m hoping this will help.
It is difficult with art. I feel similar when it comes to my books... I guess I'm afraid no one would like them. And even when they like them, it is not really possible to earn enough money to live of it. So I'm still a teacher and have not enough time to write, but I hate it.
I think (I hope) that most of us who relate to being afraid of our power are very aware that what we're actually afraid of is the consequences of being seen as powerful. Many of us have faced the consequences of being ostracized or picked on for being exceptional in some way or maybe even worse, seeing someone we cared about be punished because of some comparison to us. I don't think there lies as much confusion as Teal thinks because it still comes down to the fear of our own power.
One of the ways I've used to get over this fear of my power is to imagine the consequences of what being powerful would mean and decide (observe) that I can handle those consequences.
Note: To anyone feeling disliked or ostracized by your community. STEP INTO YOUR POWER! You can't lose the love and support of friends you never had in the first place! 💡
This made me realize that, yes, I am insecure but whats really crippling my is that if u succeed i my goals, I would have a high standard of lifestyle, values and motivation to uphold else I’ll go back to square one
I’m apprehensive to take on that load. I need conviction
Agreed. So on point. Thank you for putting yourself out there and sharing your well spoken insight!
I feel very much afraid of my own perceived powerlessness in the world. It's like walking through mud day in and day out. It's not fun to be so aware of how powerless one actually feels all the time. I get that people don't want to bear that extra layer of fear and seek easy relief.
Thank you, very enlightening!
Excellent clarification, thank you (I never bougth people being afraid of their own power...)
Hello 👋 JOSEPHINE

Thank you for your kind words. I’m not from the US
@@alexbaer9997 Anyway nice to meet.. I'm originally from Norway, I live in Illinios, But I'm presently at my place of Work here in Miami Beach Florida
@@alexbaer9997 How’s the weather condition over there with you guys?
The caring of human and material things when truly knowing leaves the person at a loss because the fear of knowing what beliefs gives causing to.
Thank you for sharing this! I have heard about this belief so many times and it always somehow frustrated me; never resonated.
Good analysed. But I guess sometimes it is simply the fear of being not successfull. Especially when the chances to be successfull are so low. If Maggie doesn't wanted to sell bread, but to become a famous singer, a moviestar or a writer, who sells enough books to live of it. You could imagine how realistic it is, that Maggie gets her power... Maybe she would be to afraid to fail. So she doesn't even try.
Literally hits the nail on the head. How does one face work through the fear or been seen & the negative effects consequences of this?
That you amazing soul sister🥰
I feel the story as it is mine. I just started listening to you and have seen several of your teachings. My twinnie flame said... She's like you! She's even speaking of the same things as you are. I've been going through this healing for years alone. I want to thank you for your important work and I wish you abundant happiness in your relationships💓🌍💓
I see you siStar🌟👁️🌟
Thank youuuu, so well explained ❤
I associated the fact of expressing my power with the terror, scare and profound sadness of get injured. This has lead me to now. I'm so sad for my situation and still don't have the power to pull off this cover pattern.
I am Amazed always how you dig so deep. Thank you Teal for your work!💫
About being honest, logical aspects of our minds needs to consume negative energy, for example observing people in desperate needs. After the self assessed peek point of the input negative feed back, mind starts to make it self usefull and starts to produce solutional outputs, being comfortable, being calm etc. Under the pressure and being complex situations, problem solving skills may need ridiculous amount of negative energy. And this is the main aspect of fear in human mind.
Closer and closer to heart of all-nessness
Lighter and smoother and clearer
Nicely done TS
Enjoy your tour
I see the effect of power as a part of the power itself ... so I would say that the fear of your own power is true from a certain perspective. When you divide the energy-flow of power into different chapters... as you do when you call it "power", "consequence" and "being seen" then you could say that you are afraid of bad concences consequences or of being seen and judged. Then the fear is defined as a certain linear point in the "parts" of the flow. From that perspective, I say you are right.
But from another perspective "power", "consequence" and "being seen" are connected into one and the same ...
and in that view when you are afraid of bad consequences then you are also afraid of your power.
That´s the reason (or one of the reasons) people are projecting their themes and shadows onto others.
@Telegran-Swan_Teal You´re welcome.
Is it you Teal?
You can truly dissect fears on the deepest level where nobody is capable of reaching
Every video sheds the light on a something completely different and I always reach an uh-ha moment during the video, yet I always end up a little unfulfilled with the video ending. As I always ask myself, and how should I do that??? How can I face my fears.
I read a couple of your books and I followed your methods years back,,, but I’m sure they’ve evolved and became deeper over the past years.
We need an updated version on those methods please.
Teal, can you make a video talking about self neglect and its root causes and how to solve it? It is one of my biggest issues in life and your guidance on it would be heaven sent. I tried everything i could and nothing seems to work.❤ Please, i beg you!!! Nothing in the Internet helps. They are so ignorant about it. I am completely terrified of taking care of myself and always when i do it my heart aches to a point i feel sick and disassociated as if i am commiting a crime.
The remedy for self loathing is self love
So it’s a fear of what bad things could come with that new experience. That makes sense
✨️💎 that just gave major clarity.! Thankful
❤Just at the moment you uploaded this video I was writing down in a notebook: I AM the Supreme Power. What incredible synchronicity.
you are so beautiful actually ,love your voice.
Super beautiful, AND intelligent....woman after my own heart. Love my girl Teal
Teal Swan, you are my hero in this video! Thank you for the truth!
I’ve tried to say this. As usual, your ability to articulate is unmeasurable.
I’m afraid of how people will view and perceive me because I don’t want to be seen until I’m confident in seeing myself.
Girl you gave words to my feelings 🥹💖 thankyou
@@kashaf8922 Oh em gee ofc! Glad we can relate!😅😌🫶🏼 I have full faith that you and I will soon be confident in seeing ourselves.
Teal you are so amazing. Indeed my wgole life time strategy was people pleasing and acting humble and putting others up this way i earned their love affection and closeness and them saying i am a very good girl. As a result my whole life i was avoiding my power . As you explained int eh video is i was avoiding to feel disliked, and being a threat to others if i step in to my power . Amazong knowledge thank you so much ❤❤❤❤
That was incredible, Teal. Love the way you broke that down. So accurate.
true, face your real fears and solve them if possible
Teal,
Thank-you!
That was uplifting!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Much gratitude for your insights and time Teal..Looking forward to seeing you in Dublin soon. Better bring your raincoat 😊❤
Thank you again, teal ❤❤❤
This video was really eye opening
Good morning! Actually fearing my own power is something was I somehow recognize in my own life.. and I really wonder why that is?
Love you Teal thank you for this video ❤️
❤very deep and straight to the point as usual.Much appreciated,Thank you.If playing it down in our childhood was enabling US to get love and acceptance from our family... That's what we will do as adults not even consciously realizing IT.
you are amazing…wow. thank you for helping us
I was Waiting for this one to come out!!! 🎉
This was a really good one sometimes teal hits the nail
Having kids is a common way to pass the buck, that surely comes back on us every time. "If i can just empower an other, i can avoid the trouble my own power will incite."
Surrendering to oppression, feigning powerlessness... are how we control the timing of our strike. Worldly guardians, neighbors, friends... demand revelations of our power, before it grows, while they are paying attention...
Moral whiteness, incompetence, victimhood, depression, and doubt, are ways to recruit help, but more importantly, to control attention, and steal surprise, for the day we teach the world our piece of Natural Law.
Thank you very much, Teal 🙏🏻❤️
Fantastic analysis, Teal! Thank you for helping us empower ourselves by seeing beyond the smokescreen 💖🙏🏻
Master Swan, your insights are well thought through, accessible, and useful in the wisdom! Thank you!!
I struggle with acting incompetent so people will do things for me😭 this was my lifelong pattern with my mother so makes sense it’s still an issue for me.
Thank you teal ❤️
Loved this!! Thanks Teal 💜👏
Nailed it!
Very, very true. 🤔
Thanks so much
WE LOVE YOU TEAL!❤
Spot on💯💯💯 Thank you Teal for making me see this more clearly within myself❤️ Could you maybe make a video on how specifically to let go of these deep seated fears?🙏
I’m not afraid of my power. I’m afraid that I’ll gain everything I want out of life and then something more powerful will come and take it away.
I’m so afraid of losing something I genuinely desire, that I avoid acquiring it in the first place so I don’t suffer it being taken from me.
Thank you Teal!
Woah. I'm gonna think on that some. Thankyou for this perspective. 😊
Powerful video thanks
What about fearing your own love Power of way of love powerfully...thinking It might lead to get hurt?
I’ve been with you for around a decade Teal, you’ve helped me heal and grow so much. I don’t care if she never reads this I still send my love and appreciation energetically ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.
