Welcome.
Take a slow,
Deep breath in.
And gently breathe out.
Allow your shoulders to soften.
Relax your jaw.
And feel the support beneath you.
Today we are going to explore one belief.
That can quietly travel through families.
Life has to be hard.
Baby,
You.
.
.
Grow up watching people.
Around you working incredibly hard.
You saw your parents sacrifice their needs.
Rest was not valued.
Money always required struggle.
Maybe you heard things like.
.
.
Nothing comes easily.
You have to work hard for everything.
Life is not easy.
In the butt heaps.
Somewhere along the way.
Struggle become connected.
With being a good person.
A responsible person.
A deserving person.
When life becomes easier.
When opportunities arrive.
When you receive more.
Or when you are not struggling.
Part of you may become uncomfortable.
We are gently exploring the possibility.
That you can honor everything your family went through.
Without needing to recreate their struggle.
Take another slow breath.
And let's begin.
Tap on the karate chop and repeat after me.
Even though.
.
.
Are taught new beliefs.
Life has to be hard.
I deeply and completely.
Except myself.
Even though Struggle feels familiar.
Because maybe That is what I saw.
Growing up.
I own her.
Where this belief came from.
One more time.
Even though part of me may feel guilty.
Having an easier life.
Than the people before me.
I'm open to believing.
That I don't have to struggle.
To honor them.
Take a slow breath.
I'll draw a point.
Life has always felt like hard work.
Sort of got eye.
Maybe.
That is what I learnt.
Under the eye.
You work hard.
The nose to sacrifice.
You keep going.
Even when you are exhausted.
You don't expect things to be easy.
Under the Struggle became normal.
Top of the head.
Maybe struggle.
Even became part of who I am.
Take a slow breath.
Notice what comes up.
I broke one too.
Maybe the people before me.
I really did have to struggle.
That'll die.
They had fewer choices.
And bye!
They've worked incredibly hard to recreate something better.
There's the nose.
I own her.
What they went through.
Chain point.
I honor their sacrifices.
I honor their strength.
Under the arm.
And I don't need to minimize their struggle.
Topo the head.
But I also don't need to recreate it.
Another bread?
Let that possibility settle.
I can honor their struggle.
Without repeating it.
I broke point.
Part of me feels guilty.
When things come easily.
Sadhu Jai.
Who am I to have more?
I'm gonna die.
Who am I to have an easier life?
And with the nose.
They had to work so hard.
See any point?
Maybe I should have to work just as a heart.
May be,
Is,
Feels,
And deserved.
And a doll.
Maybe struggle makes me feel connected to them.
Top of the head.
Part of him believes.
Suffering means belonging.
Take a slow breath.
There is nothing wrong with you for feeling this way.
We are simply noticing the pattern.
I broke point.
But if I don't need to struggle to belong.
Sayonara.
My suffering does not prove my love.
I'm the die.
My exhaustion does not honour their exhaustion.
Under the nose.
My scarcity does not heal their scarcity.
Final point.
My struggle does not change what they went through.
I can love them.
Without repeating their hardship.
Under the arm.
I can belong without suffering.
To boot the head.
I gave myself permission separate love from struggle.
Take a deep breath.
I broke one.
Is can be safe for me.
So I don't die.
Receiving can be safe.
I'm gonna die.
Life does not always have to be difficult.
The denounce.
I can work with dedication.
Without exhausting myself.
I can succeed.
Without constantly struggling.
I can receive a portrait as.
Without feeling guilty.
Under the.
I can allow things to work out for me.
Top of the head.
I'm learning.
That ease does not make me undeserving.
Take another slow breath.
I broke my neck.
I honor how hard they worked.
Saruga'ai.
And I allow their effort.
To lead to something better.
And a die.
I don't have to start where they started.
Under the nose.
Maybe I can begin.
Be on the left.
See you in the morning.
I can build on what they created.
I can choose a different relationship with life.
I did that.
I can welcome ease without guilt.
Top of the head.
The pattern of unnecessary struggle.
And so fun with me.
Take a deep breath in.
And slowly breathe out.
If it feels comfortable.
Close your eyes.
Imagine yourself standing on a path.
Behind you.
Are the generations that came before you.
Don't need to see their faces.
Simply imagine the people.
Whose life eventually made yours possible.
Notice the long road behind that.
Perhaps it was not easy.
Imagine everything they had to carry.
Responsibility.
Sacrifice.
Uncertainty.
The Bible.
Now notice yourself standing.
Where their roads Meet yours.
And imagine saying,
I honor how far you came.
I own it,
But you carry it.
And I don't need to carry the same weight.
Boop.
That I belong to.
Imagine.
So I take down a heavy bag.
You have been carried.
Let that bag represent Unnecessary struggle.
The belief that everything has to be difficult.
The guilt around ease.
The pressure to exhaust yourself.
Place it gently on the ground.
And now look at the path ahead.
That your path is lighter.
There is still growth.
There is still effort.
There are still challenges.
But suffering is no longer the price you have to pay.
For deserving a good like.
Take one step forward.
And silently say,
I allow life.
To become easier.
Under this deck.
I allow myself to receive.
Under this tip,
I can honor my family.
By living fully.
Take a few slow breaths.
I Blueprint.
I don't have to struggle to be worthy.
I don't have to struggle to belong.
And a die.
I don't have to excuse myself.
Deserve success.
Under the nose.
I unworked the still.
That came before me.
And I give myself permission to experience more ease.
I'm allowed to receive.
But they may have wished for.
I'm allowed to create a different experience.
Top of the head.
It is safe for life to become easier.
Take a deep breath.
Place a hand over your heart.
If that feels comfortable.
And repeat slowly.
I honor where I come from.
I honor the sacrifices that came before me.
And I don't need to repeat every circle.
I don't need hardship to prove my worth.
I don't need exhaustion to prove that I'm hardworking.
I don't need suffering to prove that I belong.
I'm allowed to experience ease.
I'm allowed to receive support.
I'm allowed to receive a prejudice.
I'm allowed to prosper.
I can work with purpose.
Without living in constant struggle.
I can appreciate what I have.
Without feeling guilty.
Their struggle does not require my struggle.
Their sacrifice can become part of foundation I build upon.
I give myself permission to live differently.
I give myself permission to receive more easily.
It is safe for life to become easier.
Big hug.
Final deep breath in.
And slowly breathe out.
Notice the support beneath you.
Notice the room around you.
And when you are ready.
Gently open your eyes.
You don't have to reject where you came from.
In order to create something different.
Perhaps.
One of the ways you can honor everything.
That came before you.
Is by allowing yourself to experience.
Some of the E's.
And possibility.
They may have wanted for the generations after them.
You can honor this title.
Without making struggle your destiny.
