     Receiving is hard. It requires us to be vulnerable and open in a way that can be really challenging. Most people are good at giving, but in order for giving to be successful, someone has to receive.       In this session of Spiritual Psychology we will bring healing to the trauma underlying the fear or opening to others in an intimate way. Opening in a safe way allows us to be nourished by the generosity of others and to feel and benefit from the love that we all crave, but often reject or hide from in an attempt to stay safe.

Guilt is when we feel badly about something we've done. Shame is feeling badly about who we are. Guilt can have it's place, but shame is always toxic and destructive. Shame undermines our sense of self, names us as unworthy and breeds self hatred.  Appropriate or healthy guilt lets us know when we're violating our own principles. Inappropriate guilt is when we're acting against someone else's ideas of right and wrong.  Inappropriate guilt leads to shame.  In this episode we'll use Spiritual Psychology tools to bring healing to shame and new hope to former despair.

Simple, relaxing, centering, this short guided meditation leads to a place of pure consciousness that has only our highest good in mind. This inner journey is the first step into the world of Spiritual Psychology. For many people nature provides an easy access to Universal Source and our own Highest Self. This inner journey can be a first step through the gateway to higher consciousness and personal growth. Spiritual Psychology uses your own active imagination as the vehicle for spiritual, emotional and mental liberation and healing. When we integrate the non-rational realm of emotion, felt sense and experience with present day awareness, we are free of past trauma and fear of the future. We are empowered to live fully in the only moment that matter, right now. When we open our mind in this way, we experience the connectedness of all things and know that we are truly part of a larger whole. We are not alone.
