It Happened In 6th Grade and 70 Years Later I Still Couldn’t Relax
Yes, The Past Does Matter
Comfortably reading a fiction book in the middle of the afternoon, taking some much-needed quiet time, I started to feel just a bit uneasy. When I explored my discomfort, I realized that it was related to relaxing during my usual productive time.
Suddenly, I was pulled back 70 years — to being a regretful 6th grader. In 1950 I was usually a ‘good girl’ but somehow, I had earned the dreaded punishment of writing 25 “STATEMENTS.”
I was dutifully writing, “If my 6th grade work does not keep me profitably busy, this work, although not profitable, will at least keep my busy.”
Yikes!!! I was still trying to please my 6th grade teacher.
I know that kind of flashback is a common marker of frozen energy and limiting beliefs from the past. What I had not quite realized is that I was still trying to avoid punishment through my normal patterns of being productive.
I describe how we accidentally acquire completely unnecessary patterns in Letting It Go: Relieve Anxiety and Toxic Stress in Just a Few Minutes Using Only Words along with the simplest way I know of to let them go, Logosynthesis®.
Logosynthesis® is a comprehensive model for healing and development, based on the power of words to restore the flow of life energy, discovered and developed by Dr. Willem Lammers.
Of course, I repeated the 3 Logosynthesis® sentences, using that long-ago scene as the trigger. I relaxed and continued to enjoy my book.
This process is amazingly easy to use. I invite you to learn how, and to release your own leftover, unnecessary discomfort.
This link will take you to an excerpt from Letting It Go: Relieve Anxiety and Toxic Stress in Just a Few Minutes Using Only Words (Rapid Relief with Logosynthesis®) that shows how easily we all sometimes freeze energy to protect ourselves.
