Many people say we need to “release the past” and that is a grand idea!

What is often missing however is that this grand idea can’t be done by just thinking about it.
OK small things can be released by just changing one’s mind; however let’s say that one is continually and repeatedly harmed by someone in the same way. I am suggesting that if there is a pattern of being harmed by the same person in about the same way and even when you ask them to stop, the pattern continues, then releasing the past will take some more actions than just thinking about it. Often the person doing the harming may say: “why can’t you just release the past”, and IF this person is continually doing the same injurious behavior, despite your requests that they stop, something else is going on. This person may be living in arrogance, or thinking they are “better than” and they may be thinking that they can do to others as they see fit and then expect the other who is being harmed to just “get over it”. On the other hand, the person being harmed may be living in shame, thinking they are less than, and so unconsciously may be thinking they deserve to be treated as “less than”.

There are 4 steps to take in releasing the past when you find yourself being harmed in the same way even by multiple sources.
These 4 steps are part and parcel of what I call “Global Harmony”, which is part of my ministry that I have been working on for a very long time.

Here are the steps, briefly stated:

1. Connect with your truth. Everyone has their own truth which basically means ones’ perceptions, history, feelings, thoughts, desires, passions, dreams and more. To connect to one’s truth is more difficult than it seems. Most people are in fact disconnected from their truth or their authentic self.

Further, many people are even afraid to “look” at their authentic self. There may be grief to move through because it is very painful to not be connected to our truth or our authentic self. The thing is, however, many people live their lives without really living “their authentic life”.
If this sounds like you, please email me and we can discuss how you can identify and begin to live from your authentic self.

2. Heal what stands in the way of expressing the one you have come here to be. This would be doing grief and shadow work. I suggest that you pick up a copy of The Grief Recovery Handbook by John James and Russell Friedman for the fastest way to do grief and shadow work. If you are hearing yourself say, “Well I don’t have any grief to deal with”, then you must not be alive. There is no human on the face of the earth that does not have grief work to do. Grief is the normal and natural response to any and all loss. Loss is part and parcel of the human experience. Everyone has grief work to do and it is the rare human who chooses to do it because our society has taught us that grief work is unnecessary because in fact, all we need do is “release the past”. And now we are back to the original paragraph in this article, and hopefully you are seeing that releasing the past involves far more than our thinking nature. We must engage our feelings, intuition and physical bodies to truly release the past. I do telephone coaching on the Grief Recovery Method and if this resonates with something within you, please call me.

3. Take the tiniest steps to fulfill your Purpose NOW. The time is now. We are not in a dress rehearsal. When we connect to our truth or our authentic self, we automatically begin to discover our deepest passions, our deepest desires, and our purpose on earth. When we do this, we also get in touch with our authentic gifts that we have to enable us to fulfill our purpose.

4. Take action: express, and be your truth: speak truth in love without attack and use advanced communication techniques. Advanced communication techniques enable one to learn how to be themselves in the world and how to communicate to maximize the possibility of others hearing you and vice versa.

Each of these steps is important and if you take them, they will not only enable you to release the past but they will enable you to be on your own heroic journey.
