Our journey here is a series of experiences that I believe allow us the opportunity to experience ourselves and through our experience, to create ourselves.
How would you know what you do want, if you haven’t experienced what you don’t want? See, life is that opportunity. What I’ve come to realize is that every event or experience is actually completely neutral. It’s our perspective, beliefs, perception etc. that creates what the experience turns out to be for us.
Therefore the work we do never needs to be on the outside. That’s just taking a detour to a beautiful destination, with the destination being YOU. And you know what… even if you do choose the detour, that’s fabulously fine too; because eventually, we all get to that place where we realize it’s all within.
That’s where you want to spend your time so that every thought, belief, perspective, and perception you hold about yourself speaks of your infinite value and worth.
As you journey through life you also realize in time that it’s not about having an opinion about people, the world etc. Because even that is not separate from you, it’s all connected. So believing it’s separate and creating that, you are creating another version of yourself. Ultimately we want to be only one version of ourselves and that’s your TRUE SELF.
That other version of yourself could be well justified through past experiences you have lived through and how people and the world treated you and made you feel.
I call this version of you, your trauma self. It’s not who you want to be, but it’s who you are struggling to accept you are not and to let go of; because of the power you gave the world or people to believe for a moment that their opinion about you is more important than your own.
That’s what the trauma is about, not the people or the world, but a belief that you have about yourself that separates you from your TRUE (truth) knowing of yourself.
When people become aware of the trauma self, their first reaction is, like get it off me!! Wanting to push ALT+CTRL+DELETE and pretend that it never existed.
What you might not realise is this part of you is very well ‘trained’ or skilled in abandonment, being treated like the outcast, so this response to that part of you is as natural as breathing.
You can hit ALT+CTRL+DELETE as many times as you choose to. The moment you relax and think you shook it, it looks you straight in the eyes with a big smile, and says ‘I’m still here’.
Your trauma self is what I believe is one of your greatest teachers. As it holds an infinite amount of wisdom about YOU and where there are still aspects in SELF that you are avoiding, disconnected or separate from.
This energy has the potential to take you to the next level in your personal growth when you go sit with this part of you and meet it as your best buddy.
Meet it with compassion, like you have all the time in the world to sit down and just listen. Not have to fix anything, listen and understand from your trauma self perspective and actually get what the trauma is about. How, when, where and what happened?
Now you are in the absolute sweet spot of transformation. This is where the magic happens. It’s all about awareness, questioning what your truth is about what you experienced and then accepting that truth that you chose for yourself. It never was about the opinion of people or the world, that’s just where we go if we don’t know or realise our own worth and value.
BUT, the moment you define, own and choose to be responsible for owning and living YOUR truth, the trauma self is transformed into inner acceptance and freedom within self.
So before you hit ALT+CTRL+DELETE, take a moment and ask yourself if you want to treat yourself the same way people or the world might have treated you before, by doing an ALT+CTRL+DELETE on an aspect of yourself.
And if you choose to sit it out and face that trauma part of you, or need support doing it. I want to invite you to contact me. I would love to assist you through this valuable SELF-investment and transformation.
Till next time, may you love and accept every part of your awesome self.
Love and blessings
