Spiritual Path Stories
How Clarissa learned to create a new reality
THE BEGINNING
Clarissa was poverty stricken and frustrated. She was trying to run her own business, and struggling with the ‘theory of abundance’. She believed that if only she could get her vibes right the clients would flood in. Because she thought that ‘the world was her mirror’, she was convinced that she must be doing something wrong.
THE BREAKTHROUGH
We quickly discovered what Clarissa’s psychological block to living a life of abundance was. She deeply wished to be free and subconsciously feared that getting more clients would restrict and confine her.
She quickly saw that doing nothing, or even very little, would not ultimately make her happy because it would deny her creative expansion and fulfillment. And so she began to play with the idea of living in the world without being controlled by it.
THE RESULTS
With her blocks cleared Clarissa found that she genuinely wanted to have clients. And they soon appeared. They also brought her the money to expand her freedom even more! Now that Clarissa’s mind was no longer overwhelmed with thoughts and fears about work, she embraced her whole life, putting more of her energy into everything. She had become both grounded and free.
How Harry transformed his experience of life in just three sessions!
THE BEGINNING
Harry was an incredibly energetic man, whose brilliant mind wasn’t acting in his own best interests. He’d long ago given up his creativity in favour of paying the mortgage, and was longing to express himself again. He desperately wanted different work and to live in a different place. He’d dabbled with spiritual teachings but remained unconvinced that “happiness is all in the mind”.
THE BREAKTHROUGH
We immediately discovered that Harry was actually resisting the idea of internal joy because of his subconscious fear that if he accepted it, his external life would never change. Like many people, Harry believed that he needed to stay dissatisfied in order to motivate to make change in his life. Of course all this really did was rob him of potential joy and, ironically, sap him of energy to take action.
As soon as Harry saw things differently he was able to relax and start enjoying the little pleasures of his life. This made him much more powerful to address the rest. He quickly saw that the reality he’d been living, a day-to-day misery independent of the unsatisfying job and location, had been entirely a product of his mind. He hadn’t been living in reality, he’d been living in his negative thoughts about “reality”.
THE RESULTS
Once Harry saw that his thinking had been making him unhappy all by itself, he quickly moved from sabotaging his happiness to serving it. The energy this freed up made him very curious about the real possibilities of his life. He started watching people around him, and how they made themselves unhappy. Harry relaxed. His boring job stopped bothering him: he knew he’d change it when he was ready. Harry started having so much fun, thoroughly appreciating and really enjoying his life.
How Katie discovered the true nature of choice.
THE BEGINNING
Katie had a very painful history and a very difficult life. She was in a job that didn’t begin to match her creative talents and her relationship was unhappy. She wanted to behave with love but frequently acted in a defensive and needy way. She hated falling short of her ideal, berating herself with the idea that “we always have a choice” in our behaviour. She couldn’t understand why love was sometimes so hard to feel.
THE BREAKTHROUGH
We first discussed the nature of choice, and what it really means. Katie thought that her inability to ‘control her ego’ was a lack of self-control. She hadn’t seen that actions driven by the subconscious are beyond the reach of self-control.
It wasn’t Katie’s fault that sometimes she acted in a needy way, her “baggage” made such behaviour inevitable. Invisible parts of our mind need healing before we can actually behave differently.
As soon as Katie realised what was going on, she began to treat herself with some of the love and compassion she wanted so much to offer others. A whole new vision of life was revealed.
THE RESULTS
Katie’s levels of self-esteem soared, while she began to treat herself gently. As she started giving herself some of the love and kindness previously reserved for others, she could begin to heal the wounds of her history. Now she was able to really make choices, no longer controlled by the fears and beliefs of her subconscious mind. And, without pushing for it, she found herself able to be truly generous and loving. Her relationship with both herself and her partner transformed.
