Openness (Why it is Crucial to Be Open) - Teal Swan

[@nightsky8012]

This video speaks my heart. As a gay man, I've suppressed myself a lot which makes me feel completely unhappy. But now I'm more open about my sexuality, which makes life easier although there's discrimination around. Thank you, Teal.

Everyone deserves to be happy, use our skills and talents to contribute to the society and retain the fruit of our labor. As long as we do not harass anyone, touch teens or married men that just had a baby, pack on unprotected boys, or try create world in our own image and tell everyone that there is no gender at all which we are suffering at the moment in 2022 as a part of Covid Global Domination Strategy and from acceptance we came to promotion, which are 2 very different things. Glenn Greenwald is a wonderful example of a valuable contribution to the society with fearless eloquence. He helped Snowden expose illegal surveillance, and is currently fearlessly dismantling the mirage of Covid Global Domination. What his sexuallity is is only His business. Just like our sexuality is nobody's business, and that privacy is to be respected. Glenn Greenwald is simply a respected member of the society. 🕊❣

[@gaylemiller9137]

Yes, it's by far deffinatly not a perfect world!!! And actually not getting any safer. To expose yourself will ultimately lead to harm or death. But I am not so sure it is necessary that we expose ourselves to everyone! Just that we have a core circle that we surround ourself with that we can be open with.

[@TVOF1]

“You are the love of your life, you just don’t know it yet.“ Wow Teal...

[@charlesphillips430]

Love her!

[@TRafael82]

I knew this

[@jerrypixar9245]

I'd like to quote Joel Watson ",your as sick as your secrets"...what a genius

[@johncox2912]

This video and Spirituality 2.0 go hand in hand for me. They're both hitting me HARD!!!!! Complete openness is total surrender .... just letting go of all wanting and grabbing and just BE with THIS MOMENT right now. Whatever is there IS THERE. Just BE totally with it. NO resisting. No running away. No running off after something else in order to cover up, bury, deny, suppress or run away from my feelings. Just total embracing of the moment - whatever it is - with an "I AM HERE NOW" presence of mind. Or an "I AM WITH YOU NOW" presence of mind. Long have I thought that being spiritual meant NEVER having any negative feelings or emotions. I was wrong! Being spiritual means being able to FEEL EVERYTHING, no matter what it is. It means being being TOTALLY open in the moment. It means never running away, never putting up an unnatural facade. To be authentic means being totally present in the present moment. There is one person I have never gotten to truly know in this lifetime. MYSELF. My past actions, feelings, emotions, etc, have largely been driven by living a life chasing after what others have told me I need to chase after. Or doing things they told me I needed to do. Or feeling in a certain because I was told I HAD to feel that certain way. WHAT NON-SENSE!!!! I AM ENOUGH!!!!! JUST AS I AM RIGHT NOW THIS VERY MOMENT!!!!!

[@rejoyy]

Love the indian dressing style. And love the video. Keep doing this, Teal

[@johannaericaandren5092]

This video brought me to tears. It explains for me so clearly why I’ve suffered so much these years, why I’ve become like this, why I can’t let anyone in and why I today am suicidal. Thank you for enlighten me Teal, for making me realize that there’s nothing wrong with me for feeling this way - but that it’s valid.

[@haroldpatrick7772]

There is one absolute gem in this and that is... "People who fear exposing themselves without exception were raised in environments where there was a heavy atmosphere of shame. It would be impossible to be embarrassed if you are not first ashamed of being yourself. (A) person does not become ashamed of being themselves unless they are exposed to someone who convinces them that they should be" Teal I have already quoted you and, if you agree, will continue to quote you on this one. Thank you, love the way you put things.... clear and simple.

[@Asura-j7o]

SUMMARY - Openness (Why it is Crucial to Be Open) - Teal Swan Being open allows source fully expression through you without restricitons when you dont follow your emotional guidance system this is painful openness feels good instead openness vs. constriction constrictions keeping secrets, turning ourselves down to be accepted, doing things we dont want to do, closed minded not being open to new ideas and possiblities, not being honest, not sharing, isolating ourselves, seeing love in finite quantity, not admiting and going after our needs and wants, not expressing our emotions, fiting ourselves into a life dictated by society and much more... emotions and body suffers from constrictions expecially the lungs and heart we fear exposure and being ourselves most people choose to close ourselves down, to be invisible, hide universe is all inclusive, all one everything you experience is not yours but everyones people with great fear of expressing themselves were raised in a heave atmosphere of shame they are ashamed of being themselves cause they were convinced that they should be nothing anyone can do to us can cause us the pain that we feel constricting our own being an arrow can only pierce into something that resists it if we constrict ourselves we are resitant to what we fear and they can hurt us if we are open nothing can hurt us, we are like water to achieve self awareness we need to express ourselves fully to learn from one another we need to express ourselves Who decided what was tastefull and what untastefule? The idea to restrict yourself comes directly from self hate we have all time during the day the chose to be open or closed ask yourself: How am I restricting myself or let myself be restricted? make the necessary changes to be open to restrict yourself or anyone else means to restrict the flow of source energy through your body commit to openness in order to live a spiritual life with happiness Thanks Teal

[@zensvlognotapro]

I am open, transparent. Thanks to this i confirm that there is no wrong about me of being open and truthful about how I feel.

[@alex-ander-13]

Thank you for your help!

[@chefai8333]

The arrow analogy is awesome.

[@marisaijpelaar3584]

[@jocelynezquivel9084]

Teal there aren’t words to express my gratitude for you. I learn so much about myself and what I’ve been through and what I go through.. you have the answer and the practice for me you are my beautiful blessing I appreciate, admire and enjoy this ♥️ My expansion with you

[@Lucidj37]

I love you for being open enough to share this video with us

[@kikiliki3301]

I was not looking for this. I just came across it and it has embodied everything I have come to awaken to in my life. Thank you mama Teal.

[@TheCheese4450]

Everything you say makes complete sense. Every video I watch makes me feel like I'm going back to source and remember what it was like to be untainted by society and living the way I was meant to. Thank You.

[@carolm1110]

This video resonates with me from the beginning to the end. Thank you so much! I really needed to see myself through your words.

[@ekonexus]

Beautifully needed at this time. Teal, you're like a beautiful moon that waxes and wanes, somehow in sync with my emotions and my feelings. Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[@mauimike81]

Teal your video's help me improve just after one day of watching a couple video's. Even before I saw your videos I knew there was a simpler way then Wayne dyer and other self help book that still has you you feeling ashamed about your negative thoughts. But they opened me up a bit so I can better understand and use what you say in your video's. Thank you namesta.

[@TheLiliasinclair]

Words cant really say how much I appreciate your wisdom and clarity. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. :)

[@Raidoven]

i've been keeping my feelings secret from my ex for over a year. this was soon became a detriment to me. even though it was too late to save our relationship when i finally told her, it was a huge burden lifted off my shoulders to finally be honest and open.

[@Sinsearach]

7 years later.. Thanks for sharing. You opening up about this helps me realise what I wish to open up to some people about, no matter the response I'll get. Purely for the sake of openness

[@dawnurbina176]

Thank you Teal. You’re a powerful teacher. Keep making videos and helping us all grow and awaken. I value all of the help I have received through your teaching. May we all be loved and inspired. ❤️💕🔥

[@daveclark8726]

Thank you Teal Scott for plussing my lifes path with this awareness. Freeing me from awareMESS. I AM grateful.

[@cadenrolland5250]

Thank! You! A lot of people need to see this video.

[@YanaGaia]

And again Teal hits the nail on the head for what I knew, but didn't have the words or explanation for. Time to be open...

[@pacosegarra4105]

Always thank you. Superior, insuperable, the real Word of God, in you. Love and happiness for you.

[@svilenaninetta9838]

I just needed this ..it is so opossite of my way of looking at openess .

This is enlightened person speaking. Each word is valuable. Thanks for spreading truth

[@alex-ander-13]

The arrow analogy opened me. THANK YOU TEAL.

[@Ernstly930]

Many thanks to you for making this video at this time. Just what I needed. From leaving religion it's challenging to stay spiritually active. Love you

[@katharineanonymous6992]

Coming back to this one is so comforting it’s one of my favorite teal videos

[@Transcendent-Economics-101]

Teal, one of my favorite colors, is at her best here reverberating the song of my own heart :)

[@captainmfitness6319]

nobody has helped me in my life more than teal , shes awesome!

[@keepgoingspiralout]

I think everyone is capable of making their own decisions in life and I think we need to find a balance between freely expressing ourselves while also not inflicting harm on other life forms. and with that, we must realize that harm could mean different things to different people. it's an interesting dance.

[@rexdxiv]

One of the most valuable and important videos you have posted so far Teal. You are an important teacher and I cherish you. I wish I had a transcript of this video to read and reread. Thank you. I will be watching this many times...

[@kathinorton92]

Love this Teal! Thank you. Also love the Sari and the tilak. You look lovely and at peace. Happy for you!

[@kathinorton92]

Bindi vs tilak. I guess Tilak is for men. :-)

[@caritoonelove]

Thank you teal! Words of wisdom!

[@eddiepower3876]

Very inspirational speaker but no need for the examples;they are a distraction just listening and watching Teal is ample

[@52648teedee]

I love Teal's incredible mind! =D

[@kbellmurray]

I always seem to watch these at the exact right time! Thank you, Teal! -recovering from having serious brain and spine surgery and experiencing huge surges of emotion and outbursts that are kinda scary. This has helped a ton!

[@charlesphillips430]

This needs to be taught in schools

[@Rudi1984]

Powerful words Teal! Thanks for sharing them with us.

[@ContraryMary]

Good thoughts. Remember that the person or people who had lead you down a path of not being all that you are had also been raised to believe this; carrying down those feelings and rules from generation to generation. Now is the time to forgive and grow from there. The forgiveness allows growth for all. Thank you Teal.

[@alanrhyason]

Miss Lou Hello Sister. Why do you feel you have found yourself in the situation in the first place. Beyond the reasons of money, security, career choice of course. The energetic or vibratory reason? All the best on your beautiful journey.

[@misslou3624]

Alan Rhyason I'm an open book and I always share how I feel, but people I know don't which I find very frustrating.

[@TRafael82]

@@misslou3624 yes they want to portray you as weak, when In fact they are the ones afraid.

[@victoriasfire]

Brilliant. Vulnerability is being present and is true power (aka POTENCY) So grateful for this lovely Being.

[@UsenRecords]

Thank you Teal. this message was much needed. God bless and keep on doing you!

[@ami7047]

when i did acid with a very close friend of mine and his close friend, we opened up so much that now they both refuse to trip with me. I made them question so many things, and think deeply about their problems, and we thought deeply about my problems. we opened up and revealed so many secrets and everything on our mind that we opened up too much. I felt super guilty about it after words and i came down very badly like it was all my fault because it was my first time tripping and I didnt trip "correctly" I said too much and made them say too much. I still hang out with my close friend, he is understanding. Lately, I've been around a lot of people with ulterior motives people not being as real with me as I was with them and so thank you for making this video.

[@asarodriguez2899]

+Re gina In your KZbin channel says 'if you want to know me, just ask'. So, who are you?

[@asarodriguez2899]

Ah, well, I still don't know who you really are, but you said two words that I find really pleasing and close to me, "Arts" and "Magic"

[@asarodriguez2899]

Yes, they are. Mostly because I paint fine art and I write professionally that I am close to Art; and, also, because I am into profound meanings in life and spirituality as well as intellect, and that is kind of magical to me.

[@asarodriguez2899]

Yes, it sets me truly free to be more in touch with who I really am, and I must admit it is what drives me in my private and professional lives as well.

[@cstrongman]

Your "realness" will never fade. Embrace it. Because you may feel guilty going that deep, but I guarantee you won't stop doing it either. Embrace it, so others can embrace it too.

[@odelia777]

This was profound, Teal, and as always, timely!!!!! It really spoke to me. Thank you.

[@Ampxx]

I used to be open when I smoked weed. Then I stopped and closed down. I'm still closed down. I think source energy is not flowing through me a lot. It is painful at times and when I realize that I'm hurting myself but I want to be comfortable. I don't work at the moment and live with my parents. I feel bad because there is more of me (other people) out there suffering not being themselves. Thank you for the great video. You are coming to the same topics of Chinese that I have researched and am happy we connect more. I will probably be more conscious of being open for now on and the importance. Where ever we are.. we are meant to be for the great purpose. The wholeness of us all. I am you. You are me different time place and space.

[@SonofGodSieglinde]

This is so good. What truth to set us free.

[@sweety1009]

Yes Ma'am you betta speak that truth! EVERYONE needs to see this! I love Teal :)

[@ElaineRogersHSG]

Leaves us with so much to think about. Thank you Teal...beautiful.

[@sagedevi7398]

Such a beautiful, powerful message. So many need to hear this. Thanks so much. Love the style of clothing.

[@DiddyKatt]

This may explain my panic attacks at night or anytime I'm trying to sleep.

[@Lunalas4123]

this is a great video. I still have a desire to understand how you have learned this information. I know things dometimes, just intuitively, and i think you do too. You give me hope for future generations. I have sought this understanding for many years because thinks learning frequency/vibration was so low when I was your age. Now, you show things are speeding up. Younger people will learn faster. You have a BEAUTIFUL spirit which you shine bright. Don't ever let anyone stop you. You give me hope for my sons future. Peace! Keep it up!

[@mariafairbrother9279]

Thank you Teal,,,,I love all of your videos. But this one made me cry a little. In a good way, I suppose. Self hate feels horrible, and Ive struggled with it my whole life. At 45years old, I am finally learning to love myself. Thank you for your message, Divine Blessings

[@renehenriksen1735]

Oh Teal you can touch my heart with your clarity but still I wish I personally could be more open....

[@StarlightOracle]

Its funny how often I have a question in my mind and then I see it answered in my feed via your video - Thank YOU Teal :)

[@jamtart161]

its good to be open...around people with POSITIVE intentions.

[@jennhall9432]

Thank you Teal! I am still working on feeling comfortable expressing myself. I have felt like something within me is "blocked". Maybe I just need to let go of this idea of constriction as a way to feel safe and let go and be open.

[@yougotgroove]

This is important. Thanks Teal

[@sahrha9814]

[@andreagrimaldi340]

This video is one of the best things I have ever seen. I will have to watch it several times. Thanks so freaking much.

[@sarrivin]

hit me straight to the heart. Absolutely. It's like me talking to myself of things I already know but sometimes forget. This made me uncover many things and caused hidden emotions to flow. Deep thank you. A bit scary to really see a person who has the same image of reality and universe that I indenpendently "recovered" from myself by myself. Or rather, from the source which I feel a part of. Scary, because you have the same vision of disasters which may be coming if human race won't change direction. There really ain't many people who are so deep into this. And I am a curious spirit, discoverer, teacher, adventurer, healer, warrior, artist etc, so I meet many people. Already decided no to marry, at least not yet, because being "free" allows me to teach people real friendship. This is the new model which lays ground for universal love which connects us all and may change the course of the Earth. Love can do it, but that typical "love for one person" may not be enough... That keeps us divided. We can make pairs for some tasks, like children etc, even for whole lives (that's good sometimes). But it doesn't seem like the purpose of all human beings in times to come. We need to learn how to be a family, or crew. We are the crew of this sinking ship called "Human Earth" right now... Just one more thing - probably we're placed so far away to work, or rather respond to the needs of souls in our areas... There's rapid awakening and it still may be _very_ hard to make this planet and people survive... I wish you all the best Teal, your work is impressive, to say the least. Please keep yourself safe.

[@144Donn]

Teal's message this week has degrees by which it can practiced. Many mistakenly believe humility and dignity to be mutually exclusive. I am sure Teal, when speaking of being open, is suggesting it be done with a nice mixture of these two characteristics.

[@jamesmazunda6216]

I recently came across your videos on you tube by coincidence while I was researching about spirit guides. I am love they way you explain complex concepts into the language that a lay person like me can comprehend and relate, for example in this video using the Chinese analogy that ''a spear pierces the object that resist it unlike the object that does not like water or air'' Thank you for all your efforts in producing these videos and other material keep up the good work.

[@CL-CCL]

I have been 80% open and they call me crazy and the other 20% I don't open up about my feelings and worries to anyone but keep it to myself, which I know is not healthy. Thank you for sharing this Teal!

Thank You Teal. 🙏💚

[@TheTrains07]

Love it, my first Teal video ever.

[@AravahStar]

10:20 This is the root of worthlessness. We always choose what we believe will make us feel better even if that belief is that we're unworthy because it's better to feel unworthy and be 'good' than feeling worthy and becoming 'bad', haughty, etc... I thoroughly enjoyed this post. Surely many people will use it as a tool of freedom & integrity in their own lives.

[@LeilaKincaid]

One way I know I need to hear what Teal is saying is that I can't hear it and it sounds like a foreign language. That's when I know I need to stop, rewind, and re-listen again and again until I get it, 'til I get the transmission. Thank you

[@Mariafrancesben]

WOW! Thank you Teal.

[@GrinchDec23]

If only things were about openness, I can be as open as anyone has ever been, and I find that our natural state is hi-jacked indeed, and TEAL is waiting indeed for someone to take her past where she has been, so she can actually confront the TRUTH. Everyone is, this is why all this material, taught by all mystery schools alike NEVER focus on taking it all the way, reaching beyond any avatars, they actually believe the lie that this is run "naturally". Perhaps I need to ask you a question, one that you cannot answer.
