How And Why Your Past Experience Impairs Your Ability To Heal (Pod #328)

Support the podcast! One of the reasons that the human species survives is because of our innate ability to learn. Every time we experience something new, we have the opportunity to learn how the world works and how our fellow humans react to a certain set of circumstances. With each new experience, we are able to make subconscious comparisons with prior experiences. New information means we are able to update our understanding of ourselves and of the world we inhabit. There are two problems with the way that we learn. First, we sometimes learn the wrong lesson. Because we may not fully understand a situation, we draw inaccurate conclusions. Second, at times we are presented with new information that conflicts with our old lessons and beliefs, so we choose (consciously or unconsciously) to ignore the new information. This conflict means that sometimes not only do we not accept new information about ourselves and the world, but it actually gets in the way of our transformation. In this week's podcast I share with you: How we build our understanding of who we are and how the world works The pitfalls that this creates in the moment as we take action How this slows or halts our ability to heal How you can tap with this knowledge so you are no longer hindering your progress Below the audio player I have included a tapping script for the tapping that we do at the end of the audio. I encourage you to listen to the full audio before tapping to the script because an understanding of the context for the tapping will make the tapping itself more powerful.
