How to Turn Jealousy into Something Positive

Nov 3

Jealousy might appear as your enemy, but if you remove the mask and reveal what’s underneath, you’ll realize, it’s actually your friend.

Jealousy is the type of friend interested in supporting your growth.

They don’t sugar coat, or present what they want to communicate to you wrapped up in a pretty bow, and gently give it to you. They’re blunt, and straight forward, and sometimes it’s uncomfortable.

They tell you exactly what you need to hear, and point out wounds, triggers, and traumas that need some attention. They invite you to get curious, introspective, and reflective.

They’re invested in your healing, so that you can become the most confident, secure version of yourself.

Rather than dismiss it in all the ways you often do—feel it and lean into it.

When jealousy says “Hi friend! I’m here.” Respond with, “Hi friend! What are you here to show me?”

Curiously and compassionately explore why the feeling is coming up and what’s it’s revealing.

What externally is triggering it? And what internally is being stirred up? Do you feel threatened? Inadequate? Insecure?

Is it inviting you to establish more security in yourself, showing you that you’re misplacing your worth, or highlighting something you really want for yourself?

Jealousy can be used as a wake up call to finally go after what you really want OR feedback on things you need to work through internally and heal.

Don’t let the discomfort of jealousy steer you away. It’s here to help you.

If you:

Find jealousy gets the best of you
Go about your day feeling really good, and then suddenly get lost in the fruitless spiral of comparison
Have a difficult time naming and identifying your emotions
Feel disconnected from yourself and your body
Use food (among other things) to cope
Don’t understand the whole “intuition” thing
