Good morning from Kent, England where I have been travelling now for 2 weeks visiting relatives, seeing sacred sites, and generally enjoying the land of my birth.
Oh, and I pitched my book to Hay House Publishing! It is called Choose Yourself and is based on the very things I write about here.
You are here to expand, whether you like it or not.
A human baby or child does not just decide one day they are going to stop growing, learning and walking. This does not cahnge throughout our lives, unless you let it.
Even when injured either physically or emotionally, our bodies magically know how to go straight towards healing.
Your body wants you to be whole. It is only your mind of should-shouldn’t, good-bad, right-wrong that gets in the way.
We learn very early what is correct behaviour and emotions, and that is 100% dependent on your family, your environment and your culture at the time.
But there IS an overarching code of behaviour I have observed in women, in my clients and in myself over the years that causes so much misery, anxiety and tension.. and loss for the world.
It is the archetype of the good girl. The one who pleases, who performs, who gives and gives and barely receives, the one who is “selfless”, the nice one.
Turns out this is very bad for your health. You were already born good. You are not broken. It is only the conditioning that told you to prove it.
Re-patterning yourself can come with great upheaval, as you begin to set boundaries, take care of yourself and take time just for your own pleasure and rest.
But these are short-lived if you have not looked at the subconscious beliefs below the patterns of people-pleasing and perfectionism.
The good girl is locked in, from thousands of years of fear passed down through generations and epigenetics.
But when you go to the roots, to where this began by feeling that greed, anger, pleasure were sinful, whether you are religious or not, you can see how the whole thing was created on a faulty foundation.
And yes, you can pull it up from the roots.
This is what we are doing in October in Choose Yourself: Awaken Your Full Aliveness.
A seven day retreat (one hour or more) each day where I will take you through the very places that you were told were bad, were sinful, and see them in truth: as valuable parts of who you are.
It is like a chiropractic adjustment for your soul. You will be straighter yet more flexible, more aligned with life.
You see, these are the most powerful parts of you. You need them on board.
And when you see each one and reclaim it in it’s pure, original energy (this is true purity, not the other nonsense), magic starts to happen.
This is the most powerful work I have done so far, and I have seen the magic happen in my own life when you open to the whole of who you are. It works.
