Resentments and Blaming

Resentments and Blaming

Jim Sherman LCSW

“The resentment we have towards someone can be as simple as an unexpressed need.  The more we don’t express our needs the more the resentment grows. The greater the resentment, the more likely one closes down, express anger, or use an unhealthy way of coping. Resentments can be a gift, if we look inward towards ourselves and ask… “is there something I need to express?” “What is the highest vibration I can be in this experience?”

“If you are blaming someone for something and you spend time building a story, you may get yourself unbalanced.  Explore your thoughts with curiosity instead of building onto the story.”  Spending time blaming someone can be a distraction from greater understanding of self.

“A possible key to freedom from merging with resentment and blaming is to turn towards yourself and explore what is happening into your internal world as well as being grateful for the opportunity to learn and grow.”
