Coming Home To Yourself: From Approval-Seeking To Self-Belonging

When you think about yourself can you differentiate who you are from the parts of you that were created to suit others? In this lesson we begin to unravel the expectations others held of us and what we truly desire for ourselves.

In a world of self help and bettering ourselves, we have begun to use the idea of self improvement as a tool to create self harm towards ourselves. In this lesson we come to learn the importance of self love and how it has a positive impact on our lives.

We humans have a tendency to cling onto ideas we have about ourselves, even the stories that hurt us. Why is that? Because even if we are holding onto identities that no longer serve our best interests, at least we know who we are. In this lesson we learn to let go.

When you have spent such a large amount of time contorting to the expectations of others, of the society you live in and the environments you inhabit, you can lose sight of yourself. Lose the very essence of you. In this lesson you will be remembering the parts of you that have been forgotten and beginning to tune into yourself.

There is something expansive and exciting when we are faced with a blank space. An empty room or a blank page, because it symbolises all the potential that exists and that we have the ability to fill those spaces with whatever we desire.

Aligning our actions with our beliefs is the next stage of this evolution. This is where we are practising stepping into who we are. People are going to respond to you as they always have and so it will be how you now show up and behave that will signal to them that you have changed and that your requirements may be different.
