Lesson 1

The Spiritual Journey And The Evolution Of Your Consciousness

The journey of self-acceptance begins by knowing yourself. Then, choosing to become self empowered is the purpose of our spiritual journey. There have been two major decisions that are a part of each and every lifetime. The first decision you've already made. Before you even became physical, before you entered into the physical domain to experience what is called human life. You made the decision to discover and know the unique expression of the Divine that you are. You separated and began your journey of self-discovery as you choose to incarnate through the mineral, plant and animal kingdoms, until you evolved into the human being. This first lesson helps establish the big picture of who you really are so that self-acceptance can begin.

Lesson 2

Understanding The Shadow Self (The Unlovable Parts Of Us)

Our shadow self is a part of our Soul. It's there to hold and collect all the disowned (unacceptable) parts of you that you have judged, repressed, or denied. I help you to understand the purpose and function of your shadow self so that you can retrieve the power lost there, the power to more fully embrace your light and darkness as a whole spiritual being.

Lesson 3

How To Discover Your Shadow Self

Where do you locate and find your shadow self that holds your power and keys to self-acceptance? I share with you the dark shadow and the light shadow and how to gain clarity and acceptance of it. From denial of your energy, emotions to the collective unconscious, the shadow holds mystery and power. Learn how to harness it.

Lesson 4

The Number One Reason Why We Resist Loving Ourselves

In this lesson, you'll uncover the core reason why people are unable to accept and love the unlovable parts of themselves. People have difficulty with self-acceptance because of the shame dumped onto them in childhood, which causes them to become adaptive, to try to fit in and belong. Shame robs people of self-acceptance and our ability and willingness to feel genuine remorse.

Lesson 5

Discernment: Understand The Judgmental Mind

In this lesson, you'll uncover that judgments make something acceptable or unacceptable, lovable or unlovable. Understanding how the judgments we've adopted from the past keep us in the torment of rejection versus acceptance of self. Discover the seven characteristics and differences between judgment and discernment.

Lesson 6

The Journey (Seven Steps) To Personal Empowerment & Inner Peace

Michaiel shares seven steps of the empowered journey. Each step is vital in fully knowing and aligning with your true self. Understanding the empowered journey allows us to become more aware and to finally accept ourselves. Self-acceptance is the first step in our empowered journey and is essential once we have chosen to wake up and come home to true selves.

Lesson 7

The 2nd, 3rd, And 4th Keys For Greater Self-Acceptance

As you understand the first key, the journey of personal empowerment (previous lesson), we move onto additional keys to love the unlovable parts of ourselves so we can accelerate our growth, healing and personal change. Michaiel explains three more keys we can use to accept ourselves more fully.

Lesson 8

The 5th, 6th And 7th Keys For Greater Self-Acceptance

The first four keys provide the foundation for the remaining three keys. Michaiel helps you to expand your consciousness to align with your inner power and strength. Learning to value who you are, as a power, beautiful and magnificent spiritual being.
