Growing up was a time of learning and growing. We learned about family, communication, money, security, jobs, working…we learned many things. As adults, we are still learning and growing. Today, as we view the challenges in our daily lives, there may be things we learned that still make sense…and then maybe there are things that need to be unlearned.
When we unlearn something, do we forget about it, discard or erase it from our memory? Consider this…when we learn something we accumulate information. When we unlearn something, we challenge what we have come to know or learn, based on our current experiences.
Our feelings and experiences form our day to day living. If something isn’t working for us, we can start to challenge what we are doing or what we ‘know’ in what we are doing. This challenge isn’t about changing the world…this challenge is more about finding peace within us.
Allow me to share an example of something I became aware of in the last few days. It may assist you in moving through some of your challenges…or at least see them in a new light.
There have been some strong feelings come up lately around key challenges in my life. Those feelings took me to a time when I was growing up. There were so many times where money was a reason or excuse for not doing something. I heard about that over and over. It seemed if we were to do something, we would need money, and if the money wasn’t there we didn’t get to do it. I remember days where we would think people were poor, having no money, and feeling that was the reason they couldn’t do things either. I became aware of what I was experiencing with the people around me. Was that always the case of not having money, or were there times when having no money was just an excuse or reason for not doing something?
As I look back on what I experienced, I now see how we did a lot of energetic ‘projecting,’ if I could use that word. Energetically we held ourselves and other people in a place of having no money and not being able to afford to do things. Now I can see how it’s time for me to unlearn that! I am now aware of this life issue and the inner healing begins for me and my lineage. As people, things and situations show up to challenge my patterning in this process, I will heal around projecting and holding people in a place of having no money. I’m already feeling more at peace inside myself and one day this whole thing will be a non-issue for me.
When you look at your life, where are you constantly struggling? Is it around communication, rejection, money, relationships, weight…where is the struggle or the issue? What are you seeing over and over again? What may be in the patterning, if any, and what may you chose to unlearn? Part of the unlearning process is challenging what you feel you ‘know’ is taking place. The Universe is so perfect in supporting us in ways we understand.
As you experience life, whatever you are experiencing is perfect for you. Whatever you are seeing, feeling, doing and being is perfect for you and only you. Your journey is about you…it is within you where you will feel the changes…and where you will come to find peace…regardless of what is going on around you.
