Whenever we revisit a circumstance, pattern or wound that triggers our past shame, the Ego loves to brag that we haven’t changed, and we’re moving backwards. So we hook into that narrative and judge or punish ourselves for being where we are. And that could feel like beating ourselves up about it. It could also […]
“It’s too good to be true.” That’s what people say when things come easily and effortlessly. I was looking back at my journals about this apartment and I couldn’t t believe how much resistance I had in accepting it. Because it came to me easily.
