Hi Open,

Thank you for this article and for answering my post on another forum thread. I had no idea BS was present and was going to ask, do I try to force it out or what? So this article today will help me a lot I believe. When you'd said relationships, I don't have any. I thought. No romantic ones in years, I avoid them. But I do have a phone relationship with my dad as we live far apart in the U.S. Lately he's become oddly vocal, forceful and then tried outright insinuating I'm ignorant because I won't listen to his advice that I don't feel works for me. Our first couple of different conversations over time seemed to result out of nowhere and escalated quickly into yelling. Wow!

Then I decided I was not going to be insulted or yelled at by him that way, so recently he once again tried to insist and keep the subject going after I said I'm not going to argue, let's just drop it. I said it 3 times and he kept persisting so I said I'm done with this, I'm going to hang up now and I did. The other times I just didn't bother to call him for a few days, one time he emailed me and tried to start the crap there so I didn't read it, just deleted it and later told him so. I won't be called names by my father and yelled at. It's like he was not there, just some screaming crazy person. So now I realize there's the BS energy rising up. I'll work carefully and be watchful, knowing I've been projecting thoughts onto one other relationship, a former real relationship. I take ownership now and hadn't realized I was pressuring and projecting onto them from a distance, but still was projecting the thoughts...so I will step back and look at everything.

The breathing chakra work recently that felt like I was being pulled unconscious in every chakra, and where I saw the pyramid in my solar plexus while doing the breath work, was where you posted the reply about BS energy. I don't know why every time I see the letters BS, my mind thinks "BullShit." lol It is a lot of bullshit to me that the yelling, name-calling happens so I'll take it as a reflection to work on.

I thought being forceful to make the BS energy leave me would work. So now I've got to learn how to be more empathetic towards it but firmly keep doing my breathwork to stay conscious. I had no clue the energy was even there but I really want to grow and change and clear it out. So thank you for this very timely article today. From reading here it looks like many are dealing with this now. I'm just thankful I'm starting to recognize things and not be totally unaware any longer and that's the first step to changing. I'm sure there will be many times I'll revert to the projections but will be aware sooner and catch myself.

Thank you for being there!
