Things are heating up

The Force is Strong With This One
I'm beginning to look at everything around me differently. So today, when someone in my household started an adult version of what can only be described as a temper tantrum I just watched. I usually try to argue, in a rational way. Or try to diffuse it by bridging the gap. This usually doesn't work...
But today, I instantly thought about this being the type of thing that allows energy to be siphoned off. It was hard! The words are so triggering. But I made myself stay calm. And then I started feeling really hot. Like I was having a hot flash. It's been 15 minutes now and my skin feels like it does when I get a sunburn. Has anyone experienced this?

Yes, a lot, feel like you’re in fire?? From my perspective and experience I think it’s friction of conflicting energies. Doing some kind of short intense exercise is is a good way to discharge someone else’s energy impression on you.

Good job for staying calm in the mind and controlling your emotions, the body will probably respond what seems like out of your control but there are things we can do to help it recover quickly. Breathing exercises, grounding, exercise, cold water, something else that works for you.

I think we’d better get used to these kinds of outbursts and irrational behaviour from people, Puma posted this not so long ago.

I get a burning feeling from shame but it's in my neck and top shoulders area. I suppose different emotions can have similar bodily effects. But like Fluffy said, yeah, I think it could be energetic.
 
Might be that it's the kind of thing Gurdjieff was talking about when he talked about the struggle between 'yes' and 'no' as reported by P.D. Ospensky in In Search of the Miraculous.
"Fusion, inner unity, is obtained by means of 'friction', by the struggle between 'yes' and 'no' in man. If a man lives without inner struggle, if everything happens in him without opposition, if he goes wherever he is drawn or wherever the wind blows, then he will remain as he is. But if a struggle begins within them, and particularly if there is a definite line to this struggle, then gradually, he begins to 'crystallize'."

"It is impossible to stabilize the interrelation of powders [ie the elements of our personality] in a state of mechanical mixture. But the powders may be fused, the nature of the powders make this possible. To do this, a special kind of fire must be lighted under the retort which, by heating and melting the powders, finally fuses them together....

"The fire by means of which fusion is attained is produced by 'friction', which in turn is produced in man by the struggle between 'yes' and 'no'. If a man gives way to all his desires, or panders to them, there will be no inner struggle in him, no 'friction', no fire. But if, for the sake of attaining a definite aim, he struggles with desires that hinder him, he will then create a fire which will gradually transform his inner world into a single whole."
 
Yes, I get that feeling too. When I visit my brother's family for get-togethers I have to hold in all my thoughts, feelings, and words because they are all normies. My brother's wife is a nurse who gives the vaxx to vets, while I actually once did gain of function research, yet since she's "in the system" I'm completely ignored. I turn that inner fire and anger into work, and I end up doing most of the kitchen prep work and washing the dishes. It's amazing how focused you can get doing such trivial things to perfection while transforming that energy into something productive, and I do it for several hours at a time every time I visit them.

I found a way to be productive doing things no one else wants to do, and turned it into such a "positive" that my brother counts on my presence to help him every time, while at the same time burning off negative energy while endearing myself to his family. It's not easy, but it's also put me in place in case the narrative ever changes and then I can be of TRUE use: sharing the knowledge I have. But I am also aware that may never happen. Yet I do it anyway.

So yeah, I get it. Find a way to be of use where you can put that energy into action without conflict, and it will help balance things.
