Beingness

In navigating the complexities of life, our ways of being — physically, emotionally, socially, and behaviourally — shape our experiences and interactions. The Wild Horse lifestyle, strongly influenced by a victim mentality and characterised by its untamed and reactive nature, has profound effects on our well-being. Let’s delve into the traits associated with this lifestyle to gain insight into its impact on our beingness:

Physically:

• Various vague aches and pains may manifest daily.
• Indigestion, particularly heartburn, could occur frequently.
• Chest pains and headaches, potentially leading to migraines in severe cases, frequently appear.
• Stomach issues such as ulcers and a spastic colon arise.
• Expect discomfort in the lower back, shoulders, neck, and arms.
• Muscle spasms and fatigue syndrome (ME) tend to develop.
• Make sure to monitor blood pressure, as it might rise and to prevent it from getting out of control.

Emotionally:

• Anxiety, irritability, and a sense of being easily threatened are prevailing.
• Frequent occurrences of feeling hassled, jealous, and fearful might happen.
• Panic and extreme sensitivity could be common.
• Might experience disagreements as personal attacks, causing the holding of grudges.
• Could fear and avoid change.

Socially:

• Relationships, both personal and professional, may become strained.
• Social interactions and outings might decrease.
• Unassertive or aggressive behaviour might be observed.
• Workplace conflicts could be consistent.
• The oscillation between over-pleasing and harbouring resentment towards others often occurs.
• A sense of entitlement may prevail, with feelings of being owed by others.

Behaviourally:

• Constant rushing or expressing frustration is quite common.
• Aggressive actions, both active and passive, may be present.
• Compensatory behaviours might become routine.
• Making excuses for missed deadlines might be habitual.
• Sleeplessness and insomnia could become frequent.
• Chronic tension and an inability to relax might be apparent.
• Relaxation may seem elusive, with a perpetual sense of being on the go.
• Competitiveness and defensiveness might be prominent.
• Skipping meals or rushing through them might be habitual.
• Crisis management might become routine.
• Long work hours and blaming others for failures might become standard.

Understanding the manifestations of a Wild Horse lifestyle is essential for recognising its influence on our lives. From physical discomfort to emotional turmoil, and strained relationships to habitual behaviours, the repercussions are far-reaching. By acknowledging these patterns, we empower ourselves to break free from the confines of victimhood and reclaim agency over our well-being.
