Whenever we experience events that are overwhelmingly painful, part of ourself is left in the past, unresolved, almost in a kind of suspended animation, until such time as we’re able to heal and release the pain.

We never want to enter that room because of the painful feelings it holds, but we can’t clean it up and remodel it without going through the door.

If anyone has ever told you to "lighten up", you know how unhelpful that suggestion can be! But being hard on ourselves is a serious problem that bears looking into. It keeps us unhappy, makes us not much fun to be around, and tends to keep us from being successful - or enjoying success even if we have it. But as with many negative patterns, this one is often unconscious, so it's difficult to get a handle on. That's what this program is all about - bringing that pattern to the surface so you can recognize it and giving you tools to release it.

Feelings of shyness are based upon deeply held beliefs that others won’t like us, won’t understand us, that we have little in common, and if we reach out, we’ll ultimately be rejected and hurt.

This guided meditation will help you get over the initial fear of connecting to others by visualizing yourself in social situations, easily meeting people, and enjoying the results.
