      @@samboe2009 I'm not an expert but if object permanence can be summarized as "out of sight, out of mind" it definitely means out of conscious mind. I don't think it makes trauma worse but maybe (and I'm not sure) certain memories are harder to retrieve from your subconscious, but that is where they still are. But even if that is the case, you can still notice when you get triggered and work with those sensations. Best

      You may have went further than most people but then again, what is your merit of judgment on that?? People love to cherry pick where they exceed others and then completely ignore where they don’t. The fact that you state it in such an absolutes just shows you carry a level of arrogance. You don’t know what people have gone through and have overcome. Not everyone shows you everything. Most battles go unnoticed.

It's got that "I'm so much better than everyone that I needn't care what they think" and less "everyone is on their own journey and for that reason I shouldn't compare myself to others or let others opinions bring me down." Not that I'm hating on the OP but word choice matters. Kinda conveyed the opposite idea of what was originally intended I assume.

      Well, but then the only people you´re gonna listen to is yourself and the people of whom you think that they are further in life than yourself. I would say that is problematic; sure you don´t have to take every opinion of others seriously, but to straight reject them just because you "are further in life" sounds like something a narcissist would say.

    • @BaelMortos

      @@xXTensaXxX it's not ALL of their opinions. It's the way that they view you. If you care too about others opinions OF YOU, then that is the issue. Outright rejecting the opinions of everyone does essentially just put you into an echo chamber. It's good to take what you find valuable from others opinions and leave the rest.

    • @Segagens
      @Segagens 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      You clearly have not yet understood the premises of this type of work. You are still comparing yourself to others and now being even slightly narcissistic. It's still the exact same process.
      The goal is, through shadow work, to integrate the parts of you, that are split from your core being that seem unacceptable by you. Once this has been completed, you will no longer feel a need to think about caring or not caring what people think. If you take that "f*ck' em, Idgaf what people think, I'm better than them anyway" -route, you're just overcompensating for the fact, that you do indeed care - immensely so. And you're not fooling anyone.
      Society is built on the approved and unapproved. Through the shadow, the society has its hooks in you. You will be defined by the apparent standard of society as long as you have this split of approved/unapproved within yourself. And it is your unconscious parts that does it on behalf of the society you're living in.

    Excellent workshop!
    Some questions that I noted for myself to journal about/do shadow work on, which may also be useful for others:
    How do I feel about me?
    Day to day, what is it like to be me?
    Why is living up to my potential bad or scary?
    Why do I secretly not want to succeed in my dreams?
    Why do I secretly love staying in my comfort zone?
    What is my actual deeper fear stopping me from doing what I want to do?
    What is so scary about rejection?
    When did I start rejecting myself?
    How has the idea that things aren't going to work out for me then followed me in my life? - Where has it resurfaced?
    What does my mind say, or my body say, if someone tells me that there's nothing wrong with me, nothing broken in me? - Does every part of me believe it? For the parts of me that don't believe it, what's their comeback?
    What would I immediatly respond to the following questions? Would a part of me believe these questions are justified and that they reveal some truth about me?
    - Why do my parents hate me and why is it entirely my fault?
    - Why am I not good enough?
    - What is missing in me?
    - What do I hate most about me?
    - Why is no one going to love me?
    - Why am I a disappointment to myself?
    - Why do I deserve to only play small?
    - Why is playing big not for me?
    - Why don't I deserve success?
    - Why don't I deserve happiness?
    Looking at myself in the mirror, saying, 'I love me as I am now.' Which parts of me do not believe that or resist the idea? - What do they say?
    Do I believe that I am worthy of love? - Why or why not?
    Why do I think that I am not good enough for others?
    Why am I not good enough for myself?
    Why do I feel like I do not belong?
    Why do I hate myself, or parts of myself?
    What if I chose to love myself as I am now?
    Can I still have dreams and goals and ideas for developing myself both physically and mentally, and yet still love and accept myself exactly as I am now both physically and mentally? - If no, why and is this best for me? If yes, why and is this best for me? - Which of the two responses would help me be both happier now, more likely to achieve any dreams etc, and enjoy the journey? Why?
    Am I seeking external approval? - In what ways?
    How can I give myself internal approval, as I am now?
    Am I seeking to control the people and the world around me?
    Do I feel at home with myself and feel safe within? - If yes, why? - If no, what would it be like if I did feel this way? - How could I begin to feel that way?
    In what ways am I being abusive to my inner child?
    How can I become less abusive to myself and my inner child?
    Would I accept the level of abuse my inner-voice gives me from a friend?
    How can I put a stop to the abuse from my inner-voice?
    How can I better care for and nurture my inner-child?
    Are there any thoughts or actions that can change how I am right now physically or mentally?
    Would I feel better if I resisted myself or embraced myself as I am now?
    What is so bad about me as I am right here right now?
    Am I doing things for myself or for the approval of others? - What things and why?
    Am I setting living up to my potential as a requirement to love myself?
    - If so, at what point will I give myself permission to love myself or be satisfied?
    - What if I were to love myself as I am right now and then simply enjoy my journey?
    Who decides if my body is perfect or not?
    Who decides if my life is perfect or not?
    Who decides if my achievements are enough or not?
    Who decides if I am a success or not?
    Who decides if I am a failure or not?
    What exactly is perfect? - Is it one singular thing?
    What exactly is success or failure? - Is it one singular thing?
    In what ways am I being true to myself or not?
    In what ways am I being authentic or not?
    What is the one thing I would hope someone would tell me? - Could I simply tell this to myself right now (and believe it)?
    Is it OK to be me? - Why or why not?

    I believe owning how you feel is always important but I also believe that when you wake up, saying affirmations to yourself in the mirror and then letting it go for the rest of the day has a tremendous impact on your abilities, and how well your day goes. If you JUST accept and then leave your mind at default without trying to upgrade your thinking, you may feel good around people but you won’t handle tasks as effectively and you’ll limit how good you can be at something. As someone who’s practiced both for many years, I can say that mixing the two produced the best results rather than JUST accepting!

You won't believe a beautiful girl class from class is trying to approach me and messeged me later and she seems pretty cool and i resonate with her but when I talk in person my voice tremble and i have fear that other people in class will judge me and shame or make stories about me.
    Missing my friends from school and kinda lost and also why there is so nervousness and my voice sounds weird during class when teacher ask something even though compare to other student i am far smarter and even I answer questions still there is some kind of weight on my chest I don't feel light and free like I used to be earlier.

It was as if I was electrified, not shocked, but vibrating; totally unprompted thought - just - "there"; in my head and ringing true to my core.
    Ever since that day, more videos and teaching moments have come before me.

    I just found this channel a few weeks ago and this specific video hit home for me, especially at the end.
    I used to be a person that would just push down all my emotions and experiences as if I am trying to "fit in" to not be judged by others. I would people please and just felt like I was losing who I am, constantly feel controlled by others. This lead to alot of behaviours I didn't understand; procrastination on work (in my case university) and overeating alot are the main examples.
    The letting go aspect of my emotions and acceptance has opened my eyes to all that I was hiding through a fake mask.
    I'm still new to alot of this meditation stuff, identifying which emotion I have, or which step on transformation I'm at because personally it just feels like alot of random emotions all at once; most of the time. However, I am starting to notice more when I'm triggered and doing more meditations when I feel triggered inside.
    Thank you so much for this content Julien! You have changed my life in a big way, and I am so greatful for that!

    I've been watching a lot of your vids from the perspective of someone that has always had a deep core of self love.
    Even when I've self sabotaged, I haven't stuck with it when push comes to shove. Throughout my youth, I stood up to those around me in defense of my true, authentic self. Including my parents. It was often times lonely but I somehow knew it was going to be okay.
    Between the ages of 7 and 9 I felt utter depression even though my life was sheltered. I felt disconnected from what I wanted to be and it felt out of reach for a long time. By the time I became a teenager, I was dying to express myself.
    I rebelled hard against the world around me and found myself in the process but it went against the image of myself I had created for approval growing up. By my late teens, early 20s I was able to manipulate people around me with well crafted lies to preserve that image but it got very exhausting.
    True happiness came at 24 when I chose to say enough: I am this imperfect person, take it or leave it. Now I can look back at pictures and memories of myself in every stage of life and feel real connection and pride at who I was then. I have moments of cringe, like anyone, but I did my best with what I knew at the time.
    I am NOT perfect, I work on myself constantly and your content rings true because it stands on the shoulders of giants. It's hard. We are living breathing creatures and our subconscious is a raging torrent with ever shifting currents. Whenever there's a moment of realness, it's like being thrown an oar to help steer those waters.
    Massive love and gratitude to you and all the people who put in the work to reconnect to themselves. It's never too late to have a happy childhood.

    Her whole vibe changed by the end of the video AMAZING! did you see it? Her aura went from high anxiety, low self worth to being at peace with herself and even a tad bit confident. you can see it in her posture too! amazing. this makes me think perhaps why great actors are so important, (beyond the entertainment and financial value) they show us how to completely change our emotions and thoughts on command. If people can utilize that fake it to you make it method, it's like a shortcut to hack our system. I wonder what methods they use besides tapping into an event from their lives to bring up an emotion, if there's another technique they do to embody a character.

    I so appreciate her comments on the diagnosis of social anxiety and how it confirmed her previous thoughts that there really is something wrong with her.
    I work in the field of mental health and I have come to the conclusion that diagnoses are there for practitioners, not for the client. I feel they damage clients, in fact. Further, I feel practitioners should dump diagnoses because the same dynamic works as Julien described when taling about confirming your biases about self. If a psychiatrist decides someone meets the criteria foe bipolar disorder, they will (and do) miss the many signs of development / attachment traumas many people carry with them at all times and their, "manic," symptoms are simply someone doing ANYTHING to avoid it.

    Saying to someone they are not broken is only going to work when they look for the company of those who think the same and there are not many people like that, that’s why you are making money, people are willing to pay to hear they are Ok. The reality is that we often feel broken when we seek the company of people who are completely different to us, where we don’t fit. Find the crowd where you fit in and you’ll never think you are broken. An alternative is to become similar to those whose company we are after either through training or styling which many people is trying to do and there is nothing wrong with it

      Well we aren't anxious as newborn kids.
      These are scars that makes us stiff.
      They veil our true nature more and more.
      It's just very new that we humans have this much free time to think about the misery.
      Humanity is used to being busy with surviving and working.
      Now that we are close to fixing many life-threatening problems we get the time to actually look inside.
      Back in the day this was only monks and religious leaders.
      Now we all get to access that knowledge.
      So in some sense it's a phase.
      But lack of awareness isn't the reason.
      The open wounds and scars are the reason.
      Lack of awareness and hence suffering is the consequence.
      We managed to get through worse conditions so we're also gonna have this solved :)

    100% blunt honesty: Lilian is very pretty, she is not overweight but looks a bit out of shape like she doesn't work out, and she has poor posture. This is stuff that can be fixed in a few months. In a year she could be a 9/10. This is not shallow, it is all part of health and well-being, and just shows how the mind can blind us. She is already very close to what she thinks she should be. So imagine what more she can be when she opens her eyes. I am rooting for you, Lilian.
    Working out has been a game-changer for me, it is such a relief not just to get rid of stress but also to see how the body can just take control and that it knows what it's doing, it knows how to make itself stronger and fitter if you just put in the reps. I feel much more confident now that the mind is the same. We just have to put in the reps and show the mind what we need and it will follow without question.
