Week 45. Secrets

There are things we hide even from ourselves, sometimes without having a clue about it.

This week I was feeling off on many levels and just couldn’t put my finger on it. It seemed so odd that I can’t figure out what’s going on until things overflowed. Then I realized that there was a subconscious belief that drove the situation to the breaking point. The thing is, at times we choose to not see some things to protect ourselves, other times, our subconscious does that for us without us consciously knowing it. Usually in that case we can feel a lot of inner pain, not knowing what is wrong and how to solve it, we might get all sorts of psychosomatic pains, chronic illnesses, even autoimmune conditions. But I’m not a medical professional, please consult one if you have any of the above. Since these types of problems are complex, they ask for complex solutions, so please be sure to get the help that you need. But I digress. Getting back to the topic. No matter how familiar we are with our inner workings, we still might have quite a vast uncharted territory of our subconscious. That place where secrets live, that we are not comfortable letting even ourselves in on. Although we might try to hear the subtle whispers of our bodies, our feelings and the way we show up in the world. These are usually the means those secrets get revealed on a very micro level but with practice we can get better at spotting them.

I hope this helps to understand ourselves better and to maybe suffer less when we know where to look for clues, for the source of our pains and sorrows.

Have a peaceful week with your inner insights.
