‘I Identify My Lies’ …Travel Along, Day 29

‘I Identify My Lies’

I didn’t know I was lying to myself.

I was in denial.

I thought I had worked everything through, at least enough.

Boy, was I wrong.

I didn’t realize I had blocked out my mom’s death and my grandfather’s abuse.

The pain was too much.

The hurt was too much.

I had to tell myself a lot of lies to survive, to bury the past.

Like: The problem is ME. I’m at FAULT. If it wasn’t for me, then everything would be/have been ok. I’m NO good. I’m not worth it. I AM not capable. I cannot do it. I AM too tired. waaaa… waaaa… waaaa

And then, these old lies translated into more lies as I grew up, like: I want to be an athlete, look like an athlete, but not want to do what it takes to be an athlete. … on and on. waaaa… waaaa… waaaa

These lies are tiresome to say the least, wouldn’t you agree?

On the positive side, somehow the pain and hurt made me more of an optimist.

One clue: I’m alive.

With working out in GRIT StoryAthlete, sometimes the pain can feel like it’s too much; the hurt can feel like it is too much.

Then, it’s time to examine the lies I have told myself.

The lies may have to do with the pain and hurt that is coming up from past trauma I went through, like traumas mentioned. Some may even have been inherited, just like we may inherit the looks or mannerisms of our parents, or other ancestors.

During trauma, our body tightens up, contorts, gets stuck, and then we bury the negative thoughts, emotions, and beliefs we chose about what happened. There’s a great book called “Feelings Buried Alive Never Die…” by Karol K Truman, which really explains this well. The negative thoughts and feelings we have, I can almost guarantee you that every single one is from the past, not what is happening now in the present. We all want to do all the hard stuff working out in GRIT, and do it more easily. It makes sense that the negative lies, thoughts, and feelings that are coming up about something we really do (GRIT) want to succeed at (GRIT), are really not about what is happening right now, but about something that happened in the past. Our mind is just going down the same track it has been down, probably time and again. It’s time to erase those tracks.

So… on the positive side…

Opportunity, like GRIT, comes up for more buried lies, pain and hurt to surface. I can choose to release the pain and hurt, the lies that try to block me. That’s what I do with clients and myself, as an energy practitioner. Identifying my lies helps me see what needs to go, to dig it up, and release it, thereby freeing me to move in the direction I choose, a lot more easily.

This is all about aligning the conscious and the subconscious so you move 100% in the direction you choose.

Working with athletes, like surfers in Hawaii, who for instance, can’t get the next wave they have been desiring, just out of grasp, we look for the limiting beliefs, stuck emotions, anything in the way, so that the surfer actually can do what he or she always wanted to do.

Two years ago, a guy who has been an avid surfer since he was a boy told me this was his best year ever. I said are you kidding me? I thought it would have been when he was a teen, or in his twenties, maybe even his thirties. Two years ago, he was 65. His BEST YEAR EVER. Who would have thought?! He thanked me for helping him release everything that stood in his way of being the best surfer he knew he could be.

Now, it’s my turn to put on, and let my INNER ATHLETE shine.

Through all the pain and the hurt, all the lies I told myself in the past that are coming up now, that I continue to dig up and release, and with GRIT, the 1% happens and I move forward! BOOM!
