The Cure for Soul Fatigue

CureLife can be exhausting. Recovery from physical fatigue happens easily. Soul fatigue is like being in quick sand.  The more you struggle the deeper you sink. This mental quick sand consists of all the limiting, judgemental, fearful thoughts and stories we've ever had. We've believed them forever. Left unchallenged, these critical thought become our truth.  

Anytime you believe these crtitcal, limiting, fearful thoughts and stories, the  true wisdom you've gained from past experience gets muted.  Your passion for life, your primal connection gets suffocated because you are stuck in the quick sand of your old unresolved pain. You've lost your way.

Try This! Ask yourself what you do, how would you live if you could be absolutely sure that there would always be enough money, love, strength and security for yourself and everyone you cared about?  Write down four words that describe how you feel when you imagine this new kind of freedom.  Now write down four words describing how you usually feel at the end of an ordinary day, like yesterday. Compare the word lists, freedom on one side, and ordinary day on the other.  Are they the opposites of each other?  

(End soul fatigue)

Julie StassWe all have a Past with memories and stories. Old stories and beliefs continue to cause us pain because we've held on to them, believing we are what has happened to us. Most folks never challenge their beliefs about the past. Failing to challenge painful stories and beliefs keeps us stuck, unable to access our true nature, our primal connection. 

We are not what has happened to us.  We are who we choose to become.

"I was molested when I was eight years old and I cannot trust anyone."

"I was a sickly child and cannot handle much stress."

"I am an alcoholic and have wasted my life."

"It is too late to find happiness."

"I'm too fat, thin, tall, short, uncoordinated, poor, stupid, uneducated, insecure, phobic, weird, you fill in the blank, to effectively contribute to the world."

Try This!  Ask yourself what's your limiting story?  Answer the following questions: Are you absolutely sure that story is true? How do you behave and feel when you believe your old story? What would your life be like if you could not think your old story or belief anymore?  (for more depth go to TheWork.com of Byron Katie)

Your painful past does not define you nor does it predict your future. Pain is the catalyst that develops your gifts and defines your Truth. You need a different prespective. Seeing yourself as a survivor instead of a victim and letting go of your pain and fear allows you to begin embracing your life again.

It is time to hornor yourself, your pain and your courage. As Hemmingway said," We get stronger in the broken places." It is so easy to get paralized in our old fears and judgements. Are you ready to challenge your old stories and limiting beliefs about who you think you are?

Are you ready to be your free, unafraid self and make your primal connection? I hope so because there are people in the World waiting to hear from you and receive your gifts.

My clients tell me that, for a long time, they have believed that were born for a purpose. Like a calling, they sense something deep inside telling them there is more for them to experience.

Your authentic self, your Primal-Connection is the sum total of your genetics, personality traits and the Source of your passions. You have a unique approach to life. The wisdom developed as you went through those many painful challenges helped form the gifts the world, your tribe, are waiting for you to express.

Your primal connection is your, authentic, unafraid self, without all of the limiting stories and expectations.

Become all you were created to be and help us heal the world.
