Great message. It is up to you to make yourself happy but others can also make you happy. There is nothing wrong with being dependent on other people. No man is an island.
My mother is a kindergarten teacher, and brilliant at that, but that actually made her make really poor choices with me. I remember my very first trauma as vividly as if it had been yesterday. I was walking with my parents down a really busy street with shops on both sides of it (no cars, pedestrian zone) and I was exploring all the windows, flashy lights and colors. All of a sudden, I turned around looking for them, and they were gone, vanished into thin air, like a magician. I always had a very good sense of place, proximity, and especially "spiritual" connections, so I was stunned. I must had been around 3 years old. The world started warping around me, and I felt like fainting. I started crying in panic and running around trying to find them. After half a minute or so, they came out of some building entrance laughing at me, saying: "Haha, we got you there, didn't we? Now you'd learned that you must stick with us when we are outside the home because otherwise bad things can happen to you!" Yes, my mom's idea of teaching me a lesson, something she had been doing ever since. She even told me once: "Every life failure you make is my not only personal, but also professional failure." Well, now I'm 37, have two master degrees, half way trough my PhD, speak 5 languages but still live with them. Can't find work, can't find a proper girlfriend other than those who meticulously mirror my relationship with them, am deeply depressed, full of anxiety, more usual than not on the verge of suicide. Your videos help a lot. I just wish I could do more. With my life, that is. Thank you.
+DrUmSensitive bless you ! what an awful misguided thing to do! praying for healing to you &; all; maybe that's how ur parents were treated ? so repeating the family pattern?positive thoughts &; lots of love on your journey to peace &; self love xx so many ways to help now ; trust yourself; you will find ur way ; be gentle with yourself &; honour your feelings & needs;&; get all the support you can there are some great healing &; self love meditations free on you tube play them when ur anxious ; all night if necessary &; however intense ur fears \& emotions get ; allow then to flow thru you; find someone you can trust, a loving healer \ therapist\ friend ?can you talk to ur family? to help heal ...the pattern ...trust its all releasing to heal &; take 1 moment at a time, those feelings are terrifying to the child r but if u can breathe; be present, reassure ur inner child; remember you are able to process the feelings now. the more you accept them; but dont act on any negativity to harm yourself or others ; if u feel you cant handle the feelings ask the universe to guide you to a safe person to talk to & support ur healing. ; the intensity will lessen & you will feel less overwhelmed in time .Blessings xx xx
I think you just got to the root of co-dependency and narcissism and all other emotional disconnects. It's not about self-esteem like psychologists say; it's more about a bad love story about getting needs met, but no one is trying harder and that requires great self esteem. I think we damage more when we say it's a lack of self-esteem. Just a bad love story that needs to be rewritten. I hope you help change the false foundations that have been here damaging people further and now they can be set free. Thanks so much! Great job!!!
Thank you Teal! Thank you so so much. Your Wisdom, your Explanations, are much needed. Being self sufficient and hyper independent, has brought nothing but pain into my adult life. Getting applauded by everybody for being an independent woman, i always knew: this is not what i wanted. There was something missing. And now i understand, my yearning for, not dependency, but interdependency. Thank you Teal!
I agree, Teal. It is a trap I have been falling into myself whilst on my spiritual journey. Along with the video from last week I think it is fantastic and brave of you to mention what I would name shadow aspects of spirituality. Thank you very much indeed for your truly heartfelt and sincere insights.
There's a fine line to what you're saying teal, but it's about time someone told me what the hell I was feeling. This is exactly what I've been stuck in for the past few years and I always felt that I was alone and empty and that I earned more than just having to carry myself forward. I don't understand what you mean just yet because Im scared I think, but thank you for sharing. One day I'll be healed and won't be as angry anymore I'm hoping.
@@oilinmyface787 life is pretty good internally. I do trust myself moving forward but I'm still learning how to build on things within myself. I don't remember what this video was about but I take things teal says with a grain of salt because not all of them will apply to everyone. Lol howd you find my comment?
@@SergeMagnavox wow, I didnt expect such a quick response ! I don't know I was just scrolling though the comments haha 😃 do you have any other teachers you could suggest ? I'm still trying to figure some things out and I feel like it's always good to know what people a little further down the road experienced :)
@@oilinmyface787 honestly I just read a lot of things about what I'm struggling with and note my reaction towards them. Dolores Cannon, sometimes Simon Parkes helped. I dabble in many resources and filter them for what fits my needs. Most teachers aren't authentic so filter very carefully :)
@@SergeMagnavox I have multiple books of Dolores cannon .. maybe I should finally start reading them :D I think that's a very good advice to take everyone with a grain of salt .. all the best to you ! Where are you from, if you don't mind me asking ?
Dear Teal. Your simplicity, objectivity and brutal honesty is helping me finally to go inside and find what I have been looking for my whole life without knowing what it was. I love your uncomplicated way of taking me by my guts and leading me to the place of myself. Please continue your brilliant work. Finally a person, teacher that leads us towards life. Thank you. I love you. 🌻
I have been on this inner journey. Thankful to finally learning self-trust in proper parts. Now, apply this to groups of people. Hello dynamics of identity politics. But healing that can only happen when we heal ourselves. Much love and peace to all!
This week's video has mirrored my own personal struggle so closely , it is almost scary ,but at the same time comforting. This tells me i am now aligning with a vibration that can take me out of the redundant pattern that has seemed to dictate my life for so long! I wrote a rather inflammatory post last night on my Facebook and everyone thought it was just about being angry. It was instead me beginning to realize how i really feel. Now, maybe i can begin to end my resistance to what i feel and finally be free and self- trusting. i know this is not a cure-all , but from the core of my being , Thank you Teal, Always Love
As I listened to the video I looked out the window only to see a sweet tiny bird perched on a thin branch at the top of a tree. It was preening it's self iin a confident and peaceful manner. When the video ended it flew away. I love the image of a Kandinsky painting as you spoke about emotions.
This message was perfect for me right now. I feel I am stuck but that it is only me who can get myself out. I do have those strong feelings of not being able to trust those I'm around most either. I have been noticing this about myself. Your message really brought it out into the light for me. Thank you.
💞thank you so very much Teal. Nail on the head. I feel very blessed to have found your insightful videos on TH-cam. Stubbornly independent and a codependent but understand interdependence only spiritually not trusting other humans and you have revealed to me the 'why' and the 'way' very eloquently.
synchronicity - I was talking about reasons of watching TV, movies, smoking with my friend yesterday. Teal did it again - I analyse / discuss particular topic, and then video is being released day or an hour later. Thank you :)
Thank you so so much, Teal! I have been searching for this explanation for four years..this has experience has been painful indeed. Yet, I'm so glad you uploaded this video today, it came at the exact time I needed it.
Oh my God I need to hear this exactly today, thank you! Just realized I was at one stage being fiercely independent just to stop attracting needy people, and I started attracting emotionally unavailable ppl, then now as I am opening up again I am meeting ppl at the same position of opening up 😂
This has been so far the Ask Teal episode that has given me more instant enlightment than any other..... namasté dear Teal, I think I finally catch up with your frequencies...... thanks! truly
Very helpfull for me ,,,,, iam still in that painfull relationdhip with myself,,,,,, it makes total sense to me and resinates within me ,,,,,,, dong dong the bells are ringing ,,,,,,, thank you Teal once again a big eye opener,,,,,,
THANKS ZEESHAN I GUESS ALL OUR VIBRATIONS ARE UNIQUE , BUT ITS SIMPLE NEVER FORGET THE COMMON TOUCH ,IM NO BETTER THAN THE LOWEST CAST THE ETU NOT FALSE MODESTY WHILE WEAR THAT VIRATION I MISS THAT SAD PERSON AT THE BACK OF THE HALL , BUT STAY IN THE LIGHT , GOOD LUCK, XX
Thanks Alan. Yes, however try to we put our feelings in words, words are always limited, to describe the fact that "we are now more in alignment and synchronicity than ever before" and that is what is so wonderful to share I believe. I love you ALL.
That has always been one of my personal goals, to surround myself with loving, understanding and trusting souls. And the more I evolve, the more I attract just that! I also notice it becomes very easy to love these people :-)
I am cracking up laughing at the Universe right now. Lol. For the past week, I have been synchronized with the word Symbiosis. When I meditate, it keeps popping into my mind. Others keep mentioning the word, and I keep seeing the word in different places. LOL. And now this Entire video, from my FAVORITE Spiritual teacher is allll about SYMBIOSIS. HAHAHAHA!!! I guess you recorded this one specifically for me Teal! LOL. hugs to you lady!
i can't believe you exist, wooooow this is what i need to know, said in a language i understand completely, about the topic i should acknowledge and give it more aware approach. Unbelievable ... all this wisdom, knowledge, insight i'm getting from you .. uff Makes me wanna share .. which i'm doing right now :) You're amazing, really!!!! Thank you!
Thanks for the work you do Teal. You are very wise. You practice Owl Medicine. You holds a mirror for others to look at themselves honestly. Some people aren't ready, and that is okay. Others who are ready may experience a powerful shift. It can be difficult to practice Owl Medicine because people will often project their anger or other similar emotions on you, which can be emotionally harsh. It requires sacrifice, and you are obviously good at sacrifice. Thanks again. You are helping to change the world in a very positive way.
The algorithm sent this to me at the right time 👏 praise the lord of Algorithm 😂 I’ve been watching Teal for 2 years now, just came across this video. Just a day ago, I had realised exactly all she’s explaining.
Where have you been all my life. I needed to have this information when I got beamed into this world LOL you are so knowledgeable I hope you realize you have been gifted to the highest extreme of helping life. Once again my pleasure watching your videos God bless
I always thought psychiatry was a bit too free with the term "co-dependent"--and now I know they sometimes confuse that term with as you say, inter-dependence. Thanks for your clarity on this issue, Teal--you nailed it. I get so tired of hearing that mantra that you have to rely on yourself and only yourself. P.s. you are so pretty...just saying 😊
3 things: 1. Does this mean that Tom Cruise line at the end of "that" movie, "You complete me" holds some truth? People freak out at that line. 2. Not going to lie... this video has made me confused. 3. I doubt the OP will directly respond; so I'm completely open to having soneone explain this video to me, thanks 😣
Is it possible to be of both extremes? I feel I attract either relationships where I can't, or should not, trust or people that are too much about me and I feel guilty. I've been quite horrible to myself in the past and have a parent who would not only do things for me, but never really gave me a chance and then would make jokes about how I don't cook or clean and stuff like that. I moved and proved I can cook... Lol not very organized though. I'm in a weird position where I'm filing for disability and have no car money or anything. I HAVE to depend on others for things. I go back and fourth with how I feel about disability. I keep getting signs that although I feel stuck the answer is right there... nEwayz I closed my eyes and this video came up and was just the thing I needed to hear. Your videos really clarify so much confusion that I have unlike any other spiritual teachings I have ever Encountered, and I thank u.
Thank you Teal, this was perfect timing as earlier I was trying to further understand the universe providing interdependence for a better relationship with ourselves. I was on the edge wondering if that were possible and so I guess I am the right path... Thank you for the confirmation. :) :)
Loving oneself is a prerequisite for engaging constructively with others (without co-dependence). When you seek love or other need-fulfillment from others without having achieved the ability to self-suffice, there is need which often gets expressed as desperation or a desire to control others in order to control the source of one's needs. In this way, interdependency/symbiosis without first establishing the ability to self-suffice can be an impetus for unfulfilling relationships with others. Whether the relationship in question is emotional, economic, spiritual, etc. self-sufficiency is never a bad goal to strive for, even if it is not totally achieved, because the more self-sufficient one becomes, the less 'need' they feel toward controlling those others whom they may freely choose to interact with. Beating oneself up about continuing dependency and failure in achieving self-sufficiency is just the ego getting in the way of progress. In reality, there are two approaches to interdependency: 1) one in which people simply expect their needs to be taken care of by others, often with the justification that there are some things they just can't do for themselves or 2) one in which interdependency is used as a means of empowering oneself to learn from others and become able to provide things for oneself and thereby gain resonance with those others who teach and learn through engagements of interdependency. Every true and loving master of any skill would rather teach their skill to others than to keep them dependent on them for providing that skill, whether it is spiritual empowerment or some material or economic skill. What is better, a community or couple that MUST depend on each other because they cannot manage without each other or a community or couple that freely interact for reasons of their choosing despite the ability to suffice in the absence of others and their help? Please don't give up on self-sufficiency and independence. It is both the ideal ultimate achievement of interdependent networking among individuals and the ideal state of an individual from which to enter into relationships of interdependency.
VERY GOOD! AT THIS POINT OF MY JOURNEY, I NEEDED THIS PERSPECTIVE, THANK YOU TEAL "CLOSING BUT ANOTHER DOOR . AND OPENING UP THE WONDER AND BEAUTY THAT IS BEHIND ANOTHER., THANK YOU TEAL "CLOSING BUT ANOTHER DOOR . AND OPENING UP THE WONDER AND BEAUTY THAT IS BEHIND ANOTHER.
VERY TRUE STUFF TO CHEW N DIGEST. I LEARNED TO LOVE BEING ALONE AS A TEENAGER, NOW AT 54 I SEE HOW I NEED TO LOVE N TRUST MYSELF N 80 PERCENT OF OTHERS. I REALLY NEED MORE MENTAL HEALING HERE IN LOS ANGELES, SO HOW FAR AWAY DO YOU PRACTICE, MS. SWAN? RUSS
i think i don’t trust other people because i went through Hell getting to “know” myself from a place of fear and resisting myself that ultimately lead to me trying to love myself but now i feel like others can’t possibly love me because i associate the love i feel for myself with all that pain and struggle and i don’t want / can’t expect other people to go through the same pain just to love me. i isolate myself thinking i’m being independent when really i’m just protecting other people from myself, and protecting myself from other people. i was so afraid of myself i feel like i can’t trust other people to not be afraid of me. and if other people AREN’T afraid, if it doesn’t hurt them to love me, then that means that the pain i went through was completely unfounded and unreal, and it’s like i’m gaslighting myself. in order to accept that it might be easy for others to love me, i have to reject the part of myself that found it so difficult to love myself, and then i am abandoning myself. i feel like it’s a paradox i can’t escape. do i heal myself by trusting others or do i heal my relationship with others by trusting myself?
This makes me feel like Universe is talking to me personally. What you described really fits my situation. Thank you.
Great message. It is up to you to make yourself happy but others can also make you happy. There is nothing wrong with being dependent on other people. No man is an island.

Is it possible to be of both extremes? I feel I attract either relationships where I can't, or should not, trust or people that are too much about me and I feel guilty.

When you seek love or other need-fulfillment from others without having achieved the ability to self-suffice, there is need which often gets expressed as desperation or a desire to control others in order to control the source of one's needs. In this way, interdependency/symbiosis without first establishing the ability to self-suffice can be an impetus for unfulfilling relationships with others.
Whether the relationship in question is emotional, economic, spiritual, etc. self-sufficiency is never a bad goal to strive for, even if it is not totally achieved, because the more self-sufficient one becomes, the less 'need' they feel toward controlling those others whom they may freely choose to interact with.
Beating oneself up about continuing dependency and failure in achieving self-sufficiency is just the ego getting in the way of progress. In reality, there are two approaches to interdependency: 1) one in which people simply expect their needs to be taken care of by others, often with the justification that there are some things they just can't do for themselves or 2) one in which interdependency is used as a means of empowering oneself to learn from others and become able to provide things for oneself and thereby gain resonance with those others who teach and learn through engagements of interdependency.
Every true and loving master of any skill would rather teach their skill to others than to keep them dependent on them for providing that skill, whether it is spiritual empowerment or some material or economic skill. What is better, a community or couple that MUST depend on each other because they cannot manage without each other or a community or couple that freely interact for reasons of their choosing despite the ability to suffice in the absence of others and their help?
Please don't give up on self-sufficiency and independence. It is both the ideal ultimate achievement of interdependent networking among individuals and the ideal state of an individual from which to enter into relationships of interdependency.

We are experiencing ourselves..
i think i don’t trust other people because i went through Hell getting to “know” myself from a place of fear and resisting myself that ultimately lead to me trying to love myself but now i feel like others can’t possibly love me because i associate the love i feel for myself with all that pain and struggle and i don’t want / can’t expect other people to go through the same pain just to love me. i isolate myself thinking i’m being independent when really i’m just protecting other people from myself, and protecting myself from other people. i was so afraid of myself i feel like i can’t trust other people to not be afraid of me. and if other people AREN’T afraid, if it doesn’t hurt them to love me, then that means that the pain i went through was completely unfounded and unreal, and it’s like i’m gaslighting myself. in order to accept that it might be easy for others to love me, i have to reject the part of myself that found it so difficult to love myself, and then i am abandoning myself. i feel like it’s a paradox i can’t escape. do i heal myself by trusting others or do i heal my relationship with others by trusting myself?
THANK YOU
