Are You Jealous?

What Are The Consequences for Holding onto Jealousy?
            by Susie and Otto Collins

The first step to healing jealousy in your life is to become conscious and aware of the challenges, problems and damage that is being created because of either your jealousy or another person's jealous thoughts and actions.

Now, this may seem obvious because you've been living with it but we invite you to take a conscious look at what havoc is being caused by jealousy in your life. 

We invite you to look beyond the obvious situations and person that jealousy whirls around because it usually shows up in more than one area of your life and with more than one person.

It might be that you have been jealous, to various degrees of the intimate partners you have had in your life. It might also show up in work relationships, when other people
seem to get raises or promotions or perks and you don't.

It might be that you are jealous of the way other people look, their talents or the amount of money they have.

You may be able to identify with several of these examples. The point is to become aware of the pain that is happening to you, your spouse, your co-workers, or family members because jealousy is being acted out in some form or another.

Even if you try to bury your jealousy and never verbalize it to anyone, you have to realize that you are building walls and separation between you and other people until you deal with it and heal what's underneath. 

Whether it's you that is jealous or someone in your life is jealous, begin to 
ask yourself what is happening as a result of this behavior.

Take a moment right now and make a list of how your relationships are impacted because of jealousy, from the obvious to the not-so-obvious.

Your healing can begin only when you start to become aware of how you and your relationships are being affected by jealous actions, words and thoughts.

As you make your list, remember to breathe and to know that this is the first step in your healing process.
