From what I can see, change hinges on three variables:
- Unconditional acceptance of who you are.
- A deep commitment to your inner work.
- A supportive guide and/or community to walk you through the portals of healing.
We can want to change, but if we’re bogged down by shame the first variable shuts the process down.
We can want to change, but if we don’t make the commitment to healing, nothing will change. Nobody can do your inner work for you.
We can want to change, but walking through the sometimes tricky portals of healing alone can be too scary. We’re not meant to heal alone.
This is why I created Break Free From Anxiety: a 9-month course on the art of living. Through making the commitment to a 9-month journey alongside like-minded others with me as your guide, shame softens and true healing occurs. We start with a curious mind, an open heart, and a true desire for change, and the rest unfolds with sparks of paradigm-shifting insights and moments of deep heart opening that allow us to heal at the root.
This is what happened for Sarah, a participant in the 2023-24 round of the 9-month course. Sarah and I recently sat down together to talk about her experience with the course, and she was gracious enough to allow me to share our conversation here**. She also speaks to the overwhelm that can happen when you sign up for a course of this length, so be sure to listen to the end.
Here she is, in her own words:
Whether you’re struggling with generalized anxiety, intrusive thoughts, relationship anxiety, insomnia, depression, loneliness, apathy, resistance, career anxiety, social anxiety, overwhelm, worry about your health, your kids, the world… this course can help. You might be wondering how one course can address so many different struggles. The answer is that I share a roadmap to help you address the root cause of much of our suffering. When we’re in the realm of roots, the various manifestations of suffering become secondary.
I’m paring down the live courses that I lead each year, so if you’re hoping to learn and heal with me directly, this is the time to do it. The 6th round of Break Free From Anxiety starts on September 22, 2024, and I very much look forward to meeting you there.
**Thank you so much, Sarah, from the bottom of my heart. You are a gem of a human and it was a true delight to get to know you through the 9 months.**
