Ability to say ‘No’ ‘No’ is a simple two letter word that many of us are fearful of. Many a times we say a yes even when we want to or need to say a no. Many of our problems stem from our inability to say a No. A simple two letter word ‘No’ has many benefits such as it helps to set firm boundaries, it reduces stress and makes one more productive. It’s said that success in life requires a short ‘Yes’ list and a long ‘No’ list. Let’s see why it is so hard for some of us to say a No. The primary reason being the fear of offending others or in other words lack of self confidence. One of the other major reasons of hesitancy in saying a No is the lack of self belief, wherein individuals trust the judgment and decision making skills of other more than that of themselves. This lack of self confidence and belief is the result of an unbalanced Manipura Chakra. Manipura Chakra, located directly on the navel demonstrates courage, discipline, conviction and high self-respect and Independence in all respects. An unbalanced Manipura Chakra makes individuals supersede their own desires and opinions and give more importance to desires and opinions of others. Chakra gets imbalanced due to an illusion of dependency on others for either Physical, Emotional, Financial or Social support. One needs to release dependency and understand that all unions are just partnerships formed to fulfill purposes in life. There will always be someone and something that will require your time and help but it is also important for you to set self- boundaries. Understand that saying ‘No’ and meaning it takes willpower and ability to take risk and trust in self opinion. Your primary responsibility is towards none other than yourself and the best love in the world is self-love. So, balance your Manipura Chakra, empower yourself and harness the ability to say ‘No’. 7 mukhi and 12 mukhi Rudraksha beads and Ruby Gemstone help balance the Manipura Chakra.
An illuminating article that argues that the ability to say no is just as important as the inclination to say yes.
