Do you ever engage in activities or fantasies that you judge yourself for? Most people do. I used to do that EVERY DAY.
What’s that about?
Many would avoid entertaining this question, but I’ve learned that when I can bring my attention to something, with a loving intention, then there’s a healing that happens. I’m UP for my healing.
I discovered that I intentionally set myself up for judgement to keep myself playing small and miserable. Why do that? Because it feels familiar and safe. That’s the craziness that comes from being identified with the body, and thinking that “I’m a body and I’m never going to be free. Death is my only freedom.” Death is no escape from the mind which is eternal.
When you look within, what do you feel is your motivation for self-sabatoge and self-attack? Be willing to see what you can learn from this inquiry. Awareness is curative.
So often I’ve been afraid to look beyond my surface judgments of myself to the real motivation for my choices.
I’ve been afraid to look because I thought the only result would be an increase in judgment, shame and blame and I already had enough of that. I didn’t realize that choosing not to look was preventing my healing and increasing my suffering. The pain of my suffering moved me to start really looking within.
So, why would we ever actively engage in things that we know we’ll then judge ourselves for?
I can say for myself, that I’ve learned this:
It’s not what I do,
it’s the motivation for doing it,
therein lies the impetus for the judgment, shame and blame.
In a dedication to loving myself free of judgment, shame and blame, I’ve learned to be willing to look at my motivations and adjust them, if even a little.
So often my motivation was to drown my pain and disconnect from it – and everything I did with that motivation increased my pain. Now, I see the value of that – the pain pushed me to make a new choice. Apparently, everything really DOES work together for my good – even the pain.
I’ve learned that if I do make an unloving, unkind choice, I will not intensify the pain by judging myself. That was a huge shift – and it changed my life. It’s the basis for what I share in my classes and support other people in doing.
It’s the path of profound healing.
It’s the direct route to miraculous healing.
At all levels!
Being willing to move out of self-judgment is self-forgiveness.
Forgiveness is the FASTEST and MOST DIRECT way out of misery. This is a fact. If this is the only fact that we allow ourselves to know, then our life will become miraculous. I know this because I’ve been proving it for years and I’ve been helping those who are interested in proving it to know it for themselves.
No matter how unloving your choice, the only way to make amends and move on is to release the judgment you harbor against your self. Your willingness to practice this is what sets you free. It is the #1 thing you can do to bring Peace to a fitful world where people choose attack and revenge as a way of seeking reparation.
Lay the weapons of self-attack thoughts to the ground.
You will find that by loving yourself you will be MUCH less inclined to do the things you’ve been judging yourself for.
