– Learning not to feel by conditioning the brain due to lack of control!
When working on self and trying to heal, a persons’ mind has to be focused on “self”. Understanding first what it is you’re trying to heal from. A person can never try to heal from another person, only focusing on things that can be projected out into the world as things you’re trying to heal from is the wrong approach. Moving past a situation is okay to do but it will never change the way you feel until you take a deeper look at the situation and find out what it is that is giving you some sort of trauma or setting triggers off. Work on those issues so you can move on and get the healing that feels like an epiphany. A lot of time we suffer from the inability to trust and when someone does something that offends us, we have a hard time wanting to forgive, allowing us to release emotions that does nothing but hold us back in life, attributing nothing to our greater good. We have to learn how to heal from the inside.
No matter how much perfume someone sprays on a turd, the odor will never go away. If we do not start our healing by going within ourselves and fixing it, no matter what we do or how much make up, fancy clothing, expensive jewelry we wear, the issue(s) will still be there like the stench of a turd. Sometimes, in order for us to get this healing, we have to take time for ourselves to do a deep introspection, some would call “some me time”. During this time of healing it is about no one but yourself. Do not feel the need to be surrounded by others. If you cannot sit in a room by yourself with only yourself and be ok with yourself, how can you expect someone else to accept and love you? If you can not accept yourself you can not expect someone else to. The more practical a person is about what is going on in life or around them, will set themselves with achievable expectations, seeing life for what it is and still remain optimistic working towards their goals being in touch with reality.
