We all lose touch with ourselves at some point in life - it's normal. Whether you're middle-aged
and facing the reality that your kids are leaving for college; or you have young kids and are just
realizing that somewhere in the midst of being a parent, you've lost yourself; or if you're facing
the breakup of a marriage; or you're leaving an abusive and oppressive marriage; or maybe
you're living the life set out for you by someone else - your parents, perhaps.
Or maybe just because we are living in a weird world at the moment and we cannot see ourselves in this new situation.
Whatever the reason, if you've ever looked into a mirror and thought, "Who is this person?" this practice can assist you to answer your query.
We will go on a healing journey together.
On this journey, you will get to know a little bit more about who you are, how you see yourself. We will use two main
methods to make our way from the beginning to the end of this part of your journey, including:
guided imagery meditations, question and answer reflections. Below you will find a journal which you can use to keep notes of your practice.
It's important, though, that you answer the questions in written form - that you actually see
your thoughts and feelings on paper or a screen.
Journal Reflection
1 - What was it like taking your first guided journey in this practice?
2 - When you looked at the current state of your life, how did it make you feel? What did it
make you think about yourself?
3 - What has changed between the self you saw in your childhood and the self you are now?
4 - What was your home like when you were a child? How do think that has affected you and
brought you to where you are today?
5 - As you moved through the major events in your life, what patterns did you notice?
How do you think these events and your reactions to them helped shape you into the person you are today?
