Owning Your Past

Owning Your Past

Season 5 Episode 370 Published 4 years, 1 month ago
Description
In this episode I am sharing some thoughts on how to own your past.  This may seem counterproductive since we are always told to stay in the present moment, but have you ever thought about how much energy, time, thoughts, are spent replaying your past?  It is not as simple as just moving forward or ignoring those feelings that are wrapped up in your past stories.  We have all spent years pushing things under the rug and we know that doesn't work.  What if instead we learn how to own our past and spend the time healing it in order to bring out our best self forward into our future?

In this episode we discuss:

1)  Our current life is a result of all of our past actions, choices, and experiences and our future is determined by the meaning of those stories, how we act in the present moment and not letting it define us in the future.

2)  Perspective is everything.  The story only has the meaning that you give it and learning to remain more neutral, more forgiving as opposed to judging your past, will help to put it all into perspective. 

3)  Where can you acknowledge and accept the past you cannot change. This is the serenity prayer in that serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.  This is where perspective can improve from, recognizing what we can control. Where can you forgive yourself or others for what your past stories are? 

4) With perspective, acknowledgment, acceptance, forgiveness, surrender and owning what was yours to control, you will be able to see how life has happened to help you become who you are today.  If you don't own it it owns you.

5) NLP techniques and subconscious reprogramming is one key tool to heal your limiting beliefs, from hypnosis, subliminals, EFT Tapping and other NLP techniques it will help you to heal and own your past stories.
