Rejection: Learning to Repair the Damage

Originally written in 2011 | Revisited through Conscious Synergy in 2025

By Robbyn Raquel Wallace

Reflections from the Path (Intro Note)

Fourteen years ago, I wrote the original version of this piece in the raw aftermath of a rejection that shook me. I didn’t know then that I was laying the first bricks on a path that would become the foundation of Conscious Synergy. Revisiting this now, I see just how far the journey has taken me—not away from the wound, but deeper into its wisdom.

The Wound as Portal

There was a time in my life when rejection felt like annihilation. Not just a dismissal of an idea or a misalignment in paths, but a soul-deep rupture that cracked open all my inner fault lines. I didn’t know it then, but I was being invited—over and over—into the sacred work of repair.

Back then, I didn’t yet have the language of energy or alignment. I didn’t yet understand that what I was feeling wasn’t just emotional pain—it was a vibrational dissonance. The withdrawal of someone’s presence or affection would send me spiraling, because I hadn’t yet anchored in the truth of my own worth.

“Rejection wasn’t just hurt feelings—it was stored frequency.”

Rejection activated old imprints—abandonment, unworthiness, fear—and I let it harden into shame. I absorbed it, made it mean something absolute about me, and allowed it to shape my self-perception.

Listening to the Field

Eventually, something began to shift. I started listening. Not to the noise of others’ opinions or the echo of past betrayals, but to my own energy field.

I learned to pause. To stay with the discomfort without letting it define me. To interrupt the story of “I’m not good enough” with grounded tools rooted in conscious awareness and energetic coherence.

One of those tools is the ABCDEF process, which I now teach as part of the Conscious Synergy framework. It’s a practice that walks us through layers of awareness:

• Awareness: What’s the story I’m telling myself?
  
  
• Body: What sensations are present?
  
  
• Connection: Can I hold space for the part of me that hurts?
  
  
• Discernment: Is this really about now, or is it echoing something old?
  
  
• Energy: Where am I vibrating? How can I shift toward coherence?
  
  
• Forgiveness: Can I let go—not for them, but to reclaim my wholeness?
  
  

“Forgiveness isn’t weakness. It’s energy reclamation.”

Frequency as Foundation

This model didn’t just help me reframe rejection. It helped me re-code my responses and recognize my own agency within the energetic field.

I began practicing frequency shifts after painful moments—using breath, sound, stillness, or movement to recalibrate. These weren’t just coping tools. They became daily acts of energetic sovereignty.

And I came to understand something essential:

“My vibration is not determined by others’ approval—

it is attuned by my alignment to truth.”

Synergy Through Alchemy

Yes, rejection still stings. I’m still human. I still cry sometimes, or retreat. But now I see those responses as energetic data rather than personal failures. I’ve learned to alchemize the wound into wisdom.

We live in a world wired for performance and external validation. But when we reclaim our energetic field—when we learn to feel, discern, and shift consciously—we build the muscle of true inner synergy.

We don’t bypass the pain.

We transmute it.

“The repair was never about going back to who I was.

It was about becoming who I really am.”

Understanding Zionism — History, Trauma, and Paths to Reconciliation

“We cannot heal what we refuse to name. And we cannot name it if we fear being misunderstood.”

When collective trauma goes unhealed, it doesn’t disappear—it becomes architecture. May we choose bridges over walls, presence over protection.

Zionism is one of the most emotionally charged and misunderstood movements in modern history. For some, it represents survival. For others, displacement. For many, it holds both—and that’s where the conversation must begin.

This post is not here to tell you what to think. It’s here to widen the field—historically, energetically, and soulfully—so that we can begin to see what has been hidden in plain sight. Because beyond the headlines, beyond the slogans and hashtags, there is a deeper invitation: to witness the wound, and to participate in the repair.

What Is Zionism? A Brief Historical Context

Zionism emerged in the late 1800s in response to rising antisemitism in Europe. For centuries, Jewish people had endured pogroms, expulsions, and scapegoating across the continent. The trauma was generational—and very real.

Theodor Herzl, considered the father of modern Zionism, published Der Judenstaat (The Jewish State) in 1896, arguing that Jews needed their own nation to ensure safety and dignity. His vision was secular and political, not religious.

Over time, multiple strands of Zionism formed:

• Political Zionism (Herzl): Create a Jewish state.
  
  
• Cultural Zionism: Revive Hebrew language and Jewish spiritual identity.
  
  
• Religious Zionism: Merge nationalism with messianic belief.
  
  
• Labor Zionism: A socialist vision that helped shape early Israeli institutions.
  
  

In 1948, following the Holocaust and World War II, the State of Israel was established. For Jewish survivors, it was a long-awaited refuge. For Palestinians, it was the Nakba—the “catastrophe”—in which more than 700,000 people were forcibly displaced from their homes.

This is where the energetic split becomes undeniable:

A land claimed as salvation by one people was experienced as dispossession by another.

Judaism ≠ Zionism

This is one of the most important distinctions we can make.

Judaism is an ancient spiritual, cultural, and ethical tradition. It has survived thousands of years without a nation-state, rooted instead in texts, rituals, memory, and a sense of divine covenant.

Zionism, on the other hand, is a modern political movement. Not all Jews are Zionists. Not all Zionists are Jewish. In fact, some of the most vocal critics of Zionism have been Jewish rabbis, scholars, and spiritual leaders who believe the movement contradicts Jewish ethics of justice, humility, and nonviolence.

The conflation of Judaism with Zionism has caused immense confusion—and harm. It silences critique. It fuels antisemitism. And it obscures the real spiritual heart of a people who have known exile intimately.

A Double Trauma Field: Jewish and Palestinian Pain

To truly understand the impact of Zionism, we must be willing to hold two traumas at once:

• The Jewish trauma of centuries of persecution, culminating in genocide.
  
  
• The Palestinian trauma of displacement, occupation, and erasure.
  
  

These are not symmetrical experiences. But they are interwoven.

And when trauma is unprocessed, it often re-enacts itself through domination, control, or dissociation.

Zionism was, in many ways, a trauma response. But trauma—left unhealed—builds walls instead of bridges. It turns longing into possession. It forgets that safety rooted in harm is not true safety at all.

The Energetic Field Beneath the Politics

From a consciousness perspective, what we’re witnessing in Israel/Palestine is not just a geopolitical conflict—it’s a rupture in the human energy field.

The land holds memory. The people carry ancestral codes. And both sides are entangled in stories that have calcified into identity. These stories matter. But they are not the full truth.

True reconciliation begins when we start listening to the field:

• Where is there contraction?
  
  
• Where is the story looping in pain?
  
  
• Where are we protecting narratives instead of tending to life?
  
  

Energetic healing doesn’t mean bypassing justice. It means making justice whole. It means seeing the unseen—and letting grief move through us without needing to win.

The Power of Story to Heal—or Harden

Narratives are not neutral. They shape what we fight for, who we fear, and what we believe is possible.

Zionism became a dominant narrative of Jewish return.

Palestinian resistance became a dominant narrative of survival.

But behind these headlines are human beings—poets, teachers, farmers, children—carrying stories that never make the news. These are the stories we need now.

Reconciliation is not about erasing difference. It’s about decentralizing domination.

It’s about telling stories that can hold paradox. That allow for tears on both sides of the wall. That make space for both return and release.

Conscious Synergy: A Path Beyond Binary

At the Conscious Synergy Movement, we speak often about decentralization—not just as a political framework, but as a frequency. That frequency invites us to:

• Deconstruct inherited narratives
  
  
• Heal energetic trauma fields
  
  
• Embody new storylines rooted in truth, dignity, and co-creation
  
  

This is not about picking sides.

It’s about choosing presence.

It’s about weaving reconciliation into the structure of our future—not through erasure, but through reverent remembrance.

In Part Two, we’ll explore how Zionism became embedded in American political and religious power structures—how empire, evangelism, and military-industrial agendas have shaped the story we’re told, and what it means to dismantle that architecture from the inside out.

This narrative piece invites you beyond the facts—into the energy of the land, the memory in the roots, and the sacred wound longing to be healed.

What Are You Feeding? Conscious Attention as Currency

Conscious Attention as Currency

“Energy flows where attention goes.”

It’s more than a catchy phrase—it’s a foundational law of consciousness.

In the ever-shifting landscape of our inner and outer worlds, attention is not passive. It’s a powerful energetic currency. Every thought you entertain, every narrative you rehearse, every scroll you indulge—feeds something. And what you feed, grows.

When we find ourselves in challenge, transition, or even overwhelm, this truth becomes a fork in the road. Do we unconsciously feed fear, resentment, or resistance? Or do we consciously invest in presence, possibility, and alignment?

The Currency of Consciousness

David R. Hawkins, in Power vs. Force, illuminates the difference between reactive states that drain energy and attuned states that expand it. According to Hawkins, lower levels of consciousness—like shame, guilt, or anger—operate at frequencies that contract our awareness. When we fixate our attention on these vibrations, we become tethered to them.

But there is always a choice.

Eckhart Tolle echoes this in The Power of Now, reminding us that attention is presence. In any given moment, we can withdraw our investment from the mental movie of fear and return to the now—where clarity and peace live.

What we place our attention on, we energize.

Feeding the Fire or the Flame?

Imagine attention as a form of fire.

Unconscious attention is wildfire—consuming everything in its path, often fueled by fear, judgment, or distraction.

Conscious attention is a sacred flame—deliberately tended, illuminating what truly matters.

Are you feeding the wildfire or tending the flame?

Attention in Times of Transition

Times of transition—loss, illness, awakening, reinvention—are particularly fertile grounds for conscious attention. These liminal spaces ask us: What are you aligning with, even when the outcome is unknown?

Are you feeding the story of defeat?

Or nurturing the frequency of resilience and rebirth?

This is not about spiritual bypass or ignoring the hard. It’s about choosing what you want to fortify. It’s about energetic responsibility.

Practices for Redirecting Attention

• Pause & Witness: In moments of tension, ask: Where is my attention right now? What am I feeding?
  
  
• Shift the Channel: Even one breath of gratitude or a moment of presence can shift the frequency of your inner broadcast.
  
  
• Use Visual Anchors: Surround yourself with images or phrases that reflect your conscious intentions.
  
  
• Energy Hygiene: Like digital detox, sometimes we need an attention detox—clearing the clutter to reclaim clarity.
  

Final Reflection

Attention is not just focus.

It is creation.

It is energetic authorship.

In the Conscious Synergy Movement, we recognize attention as a sacred act of co-creation. Every individual choice—every moment of presence, every decision to disengage from fear and re-attune to truth—ripples into the collective field. This is how we reweave our shared reality: one conscious investment at a time.

So pause. Breathe.

Feel into what you’re feeding—internally, emotionally, spiritually.

Because that’s what’s growing.
