For me a part of accepting myself was accepting that my personality has more of a bit shy/laid back vibe and thats totally ok. I think being loud and the center of attention has become such a "goal" in our society that we are forgetting that differences in personalities are a real thing. We dont all need to "work" on becoming more extroverted, as long as your silent personality is because you are genuinly just like that, and not because you feel insecure about yourself/feel nervous about speaking up, then that is ok.

Anytime I feel like I've opened up 100% to the point I feel back into the swing of me--people tend to treat me like an overactive dog that should just shut up and calm down. It's either I'm stoic and subdued, or extremely extroverted and passionate. There's no in-between. Plus, anytime I break out of that shell of stoicism and genuinely express my truth to others--it's like they somehow think I'm trying to convince myself of what I'm saying. Like I should've stayed the silent type instead of "preaching" whatever wisdom I held inside that felt important to me. It's embarrassing.

Drugs make you someone your not. To you and the above commenter, do not feel guilt. You are growing because you are realizing you are serving something that does not serve you. Go through the appropriate steps to battle your addiction, but remain spiritual in mindset and soul. Be patient with yourself, and you will have a breakthrough. When we don’t get the results we want fast enough, we tend to think we failed but some things just take longer than others. I will keep both of you in my thoughts. I wish you the best of luck. Accept support and love from those who genuinely love you. Addiction can make you feel lonely as if nobody cares. The reason is because addiction clouds your higher self/being.

Sometimes it’s a fight to stand fully within yourself and shut out the opinions of others or the need to please and fit within someone else’s standards only feel like you have a friend but whats more important is that your a friend to yourself first. That fight isn’t easy but when you know fully know who you are meant to be then it makes following the path a little less difficult to navigate.

[@Christinadistefano]

Serving two masters. This is my discovery right now. I’ve been seeing that in my life and was slowing making that journey to showing my true self. I also grew up bi-racial, feeling disconnected from my father’s Mexican culture and later shutting myself off from my mother’s dysfunctional Caucasian family. I too wanted to blend in and not stand out and so I learned how to hide much of myself in the process. I’ve been straightening my hair for eight years feeling resentment to my natural hair. Sounds harsh and while I felt I’ve advanced spiritually over the years, I this was something I struggled with-accepting this part of my true self. HAIR. It’s so powerful, it has so much meaning. This hair, these curls came from my mother’s side, a deeply wounded, elders with PTSD, drug, alcohol, physical, mental, sexual and emotional abuse history spanning generations. I’ve been discovering that these curls connected me to that linage and I didn’t feel comfortable facing it. A trip to Mexico, on a small island, detached from internet connection helped me reconnect with a part of myself that I hid for my corporate career. I learned as a child how to suppress myself and exist as a chameleon in the world and waking up to the fact that I was still doing this, suppressing my history, my true self and who knows what else-it was profound and I can feel shifts happening in embracing more of my true self. Through the power of KZbin and sending out the intention to receive the message I need-I found this video and your channel. This was the message my heart needed. Thank you 🙏🏽

I now show up for myself & it’s been an amazing journey towards self discovery, self trust, less self-deprecating behavior, & self love. I’ve been training my mind to not focus on what I don’t love about my physical, but appreciating what I do love. I’ve been training my mind to not ruminate over my mistakes absent of solutions but to realize how far I’ve come & how I prayed to be where I am today & that the things I can change will be changed.

[@loveneivs]

I'm so grateful for you to talk about this. I've had a long journey with body hair. I started growing it 2 years ago and my parents didn't accept it because I happen to be a woman. I know they're just worried about what society may think but they don't understand that it's worth it. And I know deep in my heart that the hair helps me connect with my feminine energy. I'm not dirty or masculine or weird for loving my body the way God made it.

[@emi729]

,, If You are new here, You do not even know, we are friends” I want more of that energy in my country.

[@sleepandrelaxhd]

"Are you going to live your truth or are you going to suppress the truth? If you suppress the truth don't be upset if life. . . suppresses you. The acceptance is within." God knew I needed to hear this, right now, in my journey. When a message is clear you can't mistaken it's from the Source. This was GOLDEN Hindz, Thank you!

I love looking like my natural self! It’s been a journey of mine since 2015. I shaved my dyed hair all off, battled with throwing away makeup and started to dress for me. I am more confident and at peace with myself. I will always be growing but it is truly beautiful just to see me in the mirror

[@nla5307]

I did this last year! Shaved my head, threw away my makeup and wore clothes that I felt free and comfortable in. It’s been a long journey but I am loving the woman I am becoming. She is so beautiful and so kind and so brave.

I was about to throw the water down the draing but your video was playing and I heard the tea pour and thought "This has to be a lot of nutrients , let me make a tea" so i poured it in a cup added some surgar and its absoutlely delicious. Thankyou for today's message, I sent this to my best friend and I cant wait to hear his perspective on "two masters". Such a simple statement filled with so much.

It's nice to see a male INFJ. Very rare personality type. Thanks for the stellar content and the cup of tea. Authenticity doesn't come easy for extroverted feelers.

[@Sankofa220]

I had a similar hair story; having had a relaxer since age 6. My sister cut her relaxed hair out and grew out her natural hair. I started trying to grow my hair out but felt like I had to put a flat iron to my nappy roots to blend (no pun intended) into society. My hair did not like this. So I ended up just chopping it off and it was so liberating. I am now 11 years natural. Thank you for sharing your hair story. Your message of self acceptance really hit home. I’m so glad I cut low vibing people out of my life. Sometimes we learn to stand in our authentic self more when there aren’t people to constantly ‘weigh in’ on YOUR journey. Like you said it can’t hinder your process. Peace, love and light Hindz 😘

[@Mrcloudpotato]

"If you suppress the truth, don't be upset when life suppresses you"... These might be the most pivotal words my eardrums have absorbed on this journey. Elder brother vibes received, Hindz! We appreciate you for showing us the way. Thank you, and thank you JAH 🙏🏾

[@TinyMaths]

There's so much pressure,, all around, to live a cliché existence, a 'normal' life. The subtle or overt pressure to 'be' something that's acceptable in the eyes of the other person. I started to notice it in my late teens and it took me until I was 40 to be sick and tired enough of it, to actually start asking myself, 'how do I actually want to be in this life?'.

[@legallycassandra]

I’ve asked myself lately what do I need to focus on right now, and the answer is ‘me’. I’m sat watching your video, twisting my locs with the shaved sides, thinking “You’re right”. It all starts with love; for yourself, for others, and for what you do! I take comfort in knowing you started out with the same insecurities I currently feel. Watching myself back on cam isn’t comfortable but you prove that incremental steps do take you to where you want to be, and that the ripple effects are profound! BIG LOVE for recognising and accepting your gifts. Thank you for being authentic, and keep spreading the positive vibes✨

Yo this message is one that so many of us have been trying to avoid and reluctant to face.

First of all, I really loved the intro for this video! As someone who was bullied for years, I thought I couldn't be myself. So over the years I become a person who was scared to speak up his mind, do stuff other people want me to do, and more. For years I have not spoken up my mind because I was afraid people would spit me out. And thanks to meditation, reading and your videos I feel like I should do this life for me and no one else. Some people might find that selfish, but if I cannot accept who I am no one will. Once again a great vid Hindz!

I so appreciate this brother. Recently I did another big chop to signify me starting over. I come from a corporate background but I’m realizing it made me surpress my true self. I don’t want to be bound by outside expectations. At 30, I am now really learning to love myself as is, how Thee Most High created me. So no more blowouts to my hair. I’m bald, braless, no designer clothes, shoes or purses. Ive adapted to minimalism. No longer using my outward adornments as a crutch to avoid how I was desperately falling apart from un healed trauma, terrible habits and low self worth. This wasn’t how I used to be. I’m currently overweight and learning how to also show love to myself at THIS moment and not just hold out my love for myself when I am back at a visually pleasing aesthetic. It’s a rough journey, but it’s a necessity. I’ve since had a spark of creativity. I know I’m on the right track. Abba has me covered and I’m excited to see my true self. Thanks for sharing. Shalom✨

[@cryptoq7800]

That’s absolutely crazy how you talk about growing your hair and cutting your sides and serving 2 masters. I’ve done the exact same thing. I thought I was being a chameleon working and walking thru this society in the Uk. I grew my dreads back in 2014 and cut them off because I felt I didn’t fit in and now Ive grown my hair back again in 2020 but I cut the sides just to try and blend in. I love your explanation about the man in negril. That’s where my family come from too in Jamaica so when you said that it touched me brother. I think I need to make the decision to grow my hair back fully and stop waiting for the right time because we are timeless and the time is in the moment. Thank you Hindz your good people 🌹☕️🙏🏾
