Hello,
0:03
welcome back to this space
0:07
where we are
0:10
to pause
0:12
and actually get into gentle reflection
0:17
of who we are, what we have and what we
0:21
can do to make life easy.
0:25
This is from Modeline.
0:28
Over the years, while working with many
0:32
people,
0:33
listening to their stories,
0:36
their struggles, their hopes, and their
0:39
silent battles, I began to notice
0:43
something very profound.
0:47
Beneath the different challenges people
0:49
face,
0:51
beneath anxiety,
0:54
relationship conflict, self-doubt and
0:57
emotional pain,
1:00
there often lies a deeper and quieter
1:04
struggle, a struggle with the self. In
1:08
many ways, the basic inner wounds many
1:11
human beings carry is a form of
1:15
selfrejection.
1:18
Sometimes it appears as harsh criticism.
1:23
Sometimes it appears as perfectionism.
1:27
Sometimes it appears as the feeling that
1:31
no matter what we do, we are still not
1:34
enough. At the deepest level, this
1:38
struggle can be understood as a subtle
1:43
form of self-hatred
1:45
or nonacceptance
1:48
of the self. This is not because people
1:51
are bad and definitely not because
1:54
people are weak
1:57
but because many of us learn very early
2:00
in life to judge ourselves before we
2:04
learn how to love ourself. Can you
2:09
get some moment to
2:12
allow this statement seen?
2:15
The reason is because
2:19
we learn very early
2:22
during our formative years
2:26
to judge ourselves
2:28
before we learn to love ourselves. Can
2:32
you take it? Can you inhale
2:36
the fresh available abundant natural
2:39
air? Hold it.
2:43
Now release.
2:46
Can you take another inhale
2:52
slowly?
2:56
Gently release.
3:00
Now do it again the third time.
3:05
Gently
3:08
and then
3:10
release.
3:15
And this inner struggle does not appear
3:18
the same way in everyone.
3:22
For some people, it appears as constant
3:26
self-doubt.
3:28
For others, it appears as a need to
3:32
please everyone.
3:35
For others, it shows up in emotional
3:38
distance, control or the fear of
3:42
vulnerability.
3:46
These different ways of coping form what
3:50
psychology
3:52
often call
3:55
character structure. The pattern through
3:58
which we protect ourselves,
4:01
survive different experiences,
4:05
navigate the world.
4:09
Yet behind all these patterns
4:13
is a deeper human longing.
4:18
The longing to be accepted,
4:21
the longing to be understood.
4:25
and most importantly the longing to feel
4:29
at peace with oneself. The journey we
4:32
will take together in this series is a
4:36
journey back
4:38
to the self.
4:42
A journey of understanding the stories
4:46
we carry.
4:50
A journey of reflecting on the patterns
4:52
that shape our lives.
4:57
A journey of slowly learning to meet
5:01
ourselves with compassion
5:03
instead of judgment.
5:08
Because as we begin to understand our
5:10
inner dynamics,
5:13
something beautiful happen. Acceptance
5:16
begins to grow.
5:19
Healing begins to unfold.
5:24
And when and we start discovering that
5:28
the person we have been struggling with
5:31
the most is actually the person who
5:33
needs our love the most.
5:39
This journey is not
5:42
for us to become perfect beings,
5:46
but it is rather calling upon us
5:51
on a journey of becoming honest with
5:55
ourselves. At this very instance,
6:01
we are learning to say even in moments
6:05
when we make mistakes, there's something
6:08
here for me to learn. We are learning to
6:11
forgive ourselves even when we fall
6:13
short. And this is about remembering
6:16
that within each of us there is a deeper
6:20
a deeper truth or a deeper truth,
6:25
a deeper wisdom, a deeper light that
6:28
continue continues to guide us back home
6:33
to ourselves. Many people spend years
6:36
seeking meaning, seeking peace, seeking
6:40
connection with something greater.
6:44
But one of the most powerful steps
6:48
on that journey begins with a simple
6:52
question. Can I learn to love myself
6:56
even while I am still growing? In this
6:59
series, we will explore different themes
7:03
together.
7:07
self- loveve, self-awareness,
7:09
self-reflection,
7:10
self-compassion, self forgiveness.
7:14
You may be asking yourself why self
7:18
because
7:20
this is simply answering the question
7:23
that is
7:26
uh the greatest
7:29
longing of humanity.
7:32
The journey back to self. Understanding
7:35
the self.
7:39
When you understand the self,
7:43
there is nothing that can actually
7:46
cause you to be in despair.
7:52
Understanding the self means you're able
7:54
to understand your personal life purpose
7:59
and the world's purpose
8:01
for you which they both are connected.
8:05
They are enveloped in themselves.
8:12
And slowly through reflection and
8:14
understanding we will begin to move from
8:17
self judgment towards self acceptance.
8:24
So where are you on your journey right
8:26
now?
8:29
I invite you to slow down
8:33
breathe
8:35
and join me in this exploration
8:40
because the journey towards peace in
8:42
life is
8:44
the journey towards peace in life often
8:47
begin with simple
8:51
steps
8:54
or it often begins with One very simple
9:00
step
9:03
turning gently towards the self
9:08
is what we actually talking about today.
9:12
And on this note,
9:14
we are moving to the first part of this.
9:21
The first part of this our journey
9:28
towards the self
9:32
is
9:34
love
9:36
and we look at self love
9:39
to be that
9:42
aspect that we are supposed to begin
9:44
with. Until then, I am glad that we have
9:48
been able to push this idea of
9:52
journeying back to the self
9:55
and I understand that you really want to
10:00
get to understand more about the self. I
10:05
am delighted
10:07
to be always having you
10:11
on this channel with me.
10:14
Learning how to become empowered,
10:17
learning how to become useful to
10:19
ourselves, learning how to become
10:24
those beings who understand the simple
10:28
realities of human life.
10:35
Thank you for choosing this path with
10:37
me. The path of self-growth, the path
10:41
towards selfactualization.
10:45
I love you so much
10:48
and I will be willing and ready to
10:52
receive you again as we move on with the
10:57
next segment which is going to be self
11:02
love. Thank you. Bye for now.
