Authentic Self

We develop patterns of behavior that support our “fake” self, and then wonder why we feel so unfulfilled regardless of circumstances. So we interact in a way that keeps up from discovering and living an authentic life.

Becoming Aware

The first step is awareness of our situation or predicament. This is a very important step, even though finding our way out often seems impossible. It’s that “stuck” feeling that we all experience at least from time to time.

But once aware, it is very difficult to go back on automatic pilot, and feel okay about it. At this point there is a strong impulse for change and transformation. Even though it is uncomfortable at times to make this transition, the process is straightforward, and relatively simple.

Breaking Free

It’s a matter of opening new pathways of perception which lead to a new perspective. By first becoming aware, and then consciously shifting one’s point of view, one is able to uncover one’s real self.

This can be done in a number of ways including energy work, counseling and different types of therapy such as cognitive behavior therapy, or even healing laughter. But one shortcut is simply to force oneself to become more present moment to moment. The more that we remain present, the more our authentic self will emerge.

Our authentic self, being who we truly are, will appear once we get in alignment with all aspects of ourselves. We must feel good physically, emotionally, ,mentally and spiritually. And that is only going to happen when we let go of all the debris and false ideas that we have picked up along our life’s journey. But once we do, the result cannot be talked about or explained. It must be experienced. Click here for the Transforming Child Behavior Home Page.
