So let's start together and let's pull up a major core wound. And you can start this process by just closing your eyes for a moment and pick the core wound that is troubling you the most. So it could be I am not good enough. It could be I am abandoned, it could be I will be betrayed, I am defective, I'm trapped. So pick that big core wound that keeps showing up for you and you know is wreaking havoc and you're ready to let it go. And then what you can do next here for a moment is just think about the opposite. Okay, so what is the opposite of that core wound? If you're trapped, you are free. If you are not good enough, you are good enough. If you're abandoned, you will stay connected. And what I want you to do here is we'll go through this together and look for different pieces of evidence.
(03:55):
Because remember that evidence or memory is leveraging that repetition, that emotion, that imagery. So we're going to use our conscious mind here to speak to the language of our subconscious mind. So now that you have that opposite to your core wound ready, and we'll use the example of not good enough to good enough, I want you to take a moment and think of a time that you felt the opposite of that core wound. And we can look at the different areas of life. We can start by looking just in our career area for a moment. Are there places that you felt the opposite of the core wound that you felt, for example, good enough? And we can look at different characteristics that we have and the way that we show up different traits that we express. We can look at different ways we've shown up with other people as a friend, as a mentor, as somebody who cares. And I want you just to take a moment and really sit and sort of bathe in that memory or that experience.
(05:03):
Now the more specific that you get, the more you feel about it, the more specific the imagery becomes for you, the easier of a job you'll have in reprogramming. So pick one big thing you can see in the career area. Now let's look for another one. Is there another time that you felt the opposite of that core wound that you felt connected or good enough or free? And I want you to look for a second time in the career area of life that you felt that you showed up in a way that demonstrated those attributes. And if you can try to really feel about it in your body. Try to notice the different sensations that appear, that feeling in your body of being free or of being connected or that feeling of pride in your torso and face of being enough. And really try to sit in that for a moment.
(06:11):
And now we'll move into another area of life. Let's look at your friendships. Where have you shown up or had experiences to oppose that core wound? Where have you shown up as a great friend? What traits or characteristics or where have you felt free or connected? Try to think of a specific time or memory where you felt the opposite of that core wound. Try to really notice as you're imagining that memory, you're remembering it in your mind's eye. Try to really notice in the friendship area what the people felt around you. Can you tell how much care or support was in that experience with other people? And try to really feel those emotions and sensations in your body.
(07:12):
And remember, the more you tune into the specifics to the images, to the feelings, the deeper the reprogramming reaches your subconscious mind. Now let's move into another area. Let's look at family. Let's look at a time in that specific area with family where you felt the opposite of your core wound. What attributes did you showcase? How did you show up as a human being? Or what characteristics do you just naturally have as a person when nobody's watching that are the opposite of the core wound that make you good enough, that make you free, that make you connected?
