Let Go Of Perfectionism

With Aluna Moon

Living in the future is no fun. Crushingly high expectation is wearying. An invitation of presence, self-compassion, healing and flexibility awaits you! Over the next 10 days, you will learn how to let go of perfectionism and live more peacefully, joyfully, and purposefully. We, Nicola and Sam, will show you how to overcome perfectionism through insights, reflections, practical exercises, positive affirmations, guided meditations, and the use of ancient mantra. Together, we will learn how to move past the fears behind perfectionism, such as fears of failure and rejection, and instead encourage self-compassion and kind self-talk. With our guidance, you’ll delve deeper, moving beyond the mind, to bring awareness and healing to your inner child. We show you how to live from a place of freedom and flexibility and help you understand what it means to be truly successful and fulfilled on a soul level. We will hold space for you on this transformational journey of letting go of perfectionism and living in harmony with the self.


Meet your Teacher

Healers, medicine women and truth seekers, Nicola and Sam welcome you to listen and transform.

By returning to our truest selves, we rediscover our innate wisdom, intuition, and direction. These seeds of consciousness create meaningful existence for both ourselves and those connected to us. Prepare to surrender the past and move beyond future expectations. Sat Nam.

Lesson 1

The Perfectionist Mindset

We begin this 10-day journey together with Nicola, who explores the perfectionist mindset and how perfectionism can reveal itself in different areas of our life: work, relationships, parenthood, and even our spiritual practices. This session finishes with a guided practice that aims to bring light and softness to your entire being, encouraging surrender and letting go of those perfectionist tendencies.

Lesson 2

You Are Enough

Together with Sam, we explore how inadequacy is often the motivator of perfectionism and how this way of thinking can result in being risk-averse, procrastination, and a fear of failure. We explore a mindfulness practice with a heart-centered approach and ujjaji breathwork.

Lesson 3

Inner Child Practice

Today we journey deeper. It’s time to expand our consciousness and explore perfectionism from a more ‘feeling’ place as we meet our inner child. Nicola guides you through a deeply soothing and comforting practice to heal the child within that feels they are not good enough unless they are perfect.

Lesson 4

Hello, Self-Compassion

Let’s look at our inner voice in this session and encourage a more supportive self-talk with a parts therapy meditative practice. We investigate ‘the criticizer’ and ‘the criticized’ and wonder how to introduce an impartial mediator to resolve the anxiety surrounding negative thinking and perfectionism itself.

Lesson 5

Transform Your Fears

Today we are courageously facing our fears with Nicola as we look at the science behind fear and explore the specific fears of the perfectionist. The guided practice in today’s session focuses on transforming the fearful part of you into something much more real and meaningful: love.

Lesson 6

Future Self-Wisdom

Our practice in this lesson involves a future pacing visualization. We endeavour to surrender control and reach toward dissolving underlying fears surrounding not being good enough. The purpose of this practice is to release past limiting expectations and trust in a more optimistic future.

Lesson 7

Freedom & Flexibility

In this session, Nicola introduces us to a simple yet powerful exercise based on cognitive behavioural therapy. Learning to challenge and reframe our unhelpful thoughts, we can shift from black and white thinking and instead choose to ‘find the grey’ and positively affect our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. We finish the session with a mindfulness practice which uses the affirmation ‘breathe and surrender’ to experience more freedom and flexibility.

Lesson 8

Body Harmony

A deeply relaxing body scanning practice awaits you in this session. Our goal here is to move beyond a mind cycle of perceived failure into a space of self-care, surrender, and rest by focusing on deep body healing - something, us, perfectionists can avoid easily or feel detached from.

Lesson 9

Soul Fulfilment

Today we are redefining success with Nicola and exploring what it truly means to be successful: to follow our purpose, our joy, and experience deep fulfilment on a soul level. Nicola guides you through a powerful mantra: ‘Om Shanti’, which translates to ‘peace of the world’. Allow the vibration of the mantra to touch your soul and invite into your entire being a deeply touching and sacred sense of peace and well-being.

Lesson 10

Whole Heart Affirmations

Let’s end with a bang with some relaxing but empowering affirmations. We aim to build new thinking patterns that reflect surrender, self-awareness, forgiveness, acceptance, and self-compassion. These positive statements work on a subconscious level in a meditative state, allowing us to feel a sense of gratitude and certainty.

I didn’t realize how much perfectionism I had. I’ve always know I’ve been afraid of failing but I it’s apparent that fear was because of not getting something right the first time. Thank you for this course it was so insightful and encouraging!

I did not think of myself as a perfectionist BUT once I dig down a bit about the definition and what drives became clear I am. I liked the format of switching between two instructors. AND the structure of information and then meditation. I particularly liked the session looking at your inner child. Excellent course.
