Uncover the hidden trap of personal development
You’ve already been through several therapies, consultations, and self-development seminars. You’ve dealt with past relationships, childhood traumas, and self-love. You feel therapy helps, you always get to the root of the problem, and leave feeling good, thinking you've uncovered the block or discovered the repeating pattern that was preventing you from living normally,
but after a few days, you feel the same or even worse than before therapy?
You lack satisfaction in life, you don’t experience any joy, one problem piles up after another, and once again, life doesn’t feel right? After a while, you try again and choose a completely different therapy, retreat, healing festival, or even visit a tarot reader to finally understand what’s happening—to get it all figured out!
You believe:
„“Now it’s going to work. Now I’ll 'fix' myself and live a happy life. This is definitely what I needed.”
When the tarot reader describes your struggles, chills run down your spine, at the retreat you shed a sea of tears, and your heart feels warm… Now you’ve definitely discovered self-love. After leaving the festival, you feel like you’re flying on a pink cloud, sending love to all beings.
These are intense, unforgettable experiences that undoubtedly help you at that moment.
But history repeats itself.
Although you try very hard to hold it together, reality hits hard when you’re home.
- Again, arguments with your husband,
- explosive anger with the kids,
- the stressful work cycle that keeps you awake at night
.. until it once again leads to criticizing yourself for not managing everything, not working out, never sticking to any diet...
- and your body responds psychosomatically with headaches, heavy PMS, hair loss, insomnia…
It’s no wonder that many people just don’t have the strength anymore and reach for pills like Neurol. I don’t blame them at all, and I’ve heard and read thousands of stories about it.
All these stories have one thing in common.
The modern self-development trend focuses on working with the mind and subconscious, uncovering and bringing up patterns and traumas... so the mind understands it. To achieve that famous WOW moment.
“I finally figured it out. Now I know why I bite my nails. I understand why I’m afraid of confined spaces. I realized I was abused… Now I understand everything. It makes sense now.”
More specifically, the mind understands it and has control over it. You have an explanation for your problem. Many people fall into this trap.
They believe that once the problem has been brought to light, they have WON
But why do they feel miserable again? Because no one warned them, and rarely does anyone emphasize that working with the mind and our subconscious is NOT ENOUGH. We also have a body, where our traumas and memories are stored through EMOTIONS. And how do we work with emotions?
Usually, we fall into the trap of positive thinking
We’ve come to believe that we can’t have negative thoughts and we shouldn’t feel bad. In reality, we’re afraid of negative thoughts and the uncomfortable feelings they bring. We don’t want to slip into them.
Because (according to the book The Secret and others like it), we’ll attract what we don’t want into our lives, so we push ourselves to think only positively:
“We have to smile, believe, and recite affirmations. These will tune us to higher vibrations.”
With this attitude, we suppress what we feel. We throw a pink napkin over it. But it will start to smell, and sooner or later, we’ll feel uncomfortable about it. Our body will remind us that we’re ignoring something.
Many of us have learned not to cry, not to whine, not to feel sadness, and not to release anger… because no one wants a grumpy little girl, the police man will take the crying boy, and angry children are taken to hell by the devil.
No one taught us to work with emotions healthily.
Because honestly, very few people know how to do it. And our parents, their parents, and teachers at school struggle with it too.
- We’re not used to and don’t know how to effectively experience and release sadness, anger, injustice, or heartache—we don’t know what to do with it.
- It feels uncomfortable, we feel uncomfortable with ourselves, and those around us don’t like it either
- So it can happen that we easily suppress unpleasant feelings by drinking alcohol, eating cake, watching a movie to disconnect, smoking, or sleeping it off…
And it seems like we feel better. In reality, we’ve just shoved the emotion somewhere into the back of a drawer, but it doesn’t disappear. It doesn’t evaporate.
Emotion needs to go through our system - our body.
Emotion needs to be experienced
Emotion = emotions - movement.
If we don’t do this, the emotion will stay somewhere in our body.
- Then a small thing happens, and we explode = stored anger.
- Then we see an emotional commercial with kids and puppies, and we’re on the verge of tears = repressed deep sadness.
- Then our partner forgets to wish us first on our name day, and we feel wronged. It’s a small thing, but it triggers a much deeper and bigger sense of injustice, deeply stored in our system.
And these repressed emotions can lead to illness.
NO - EMOTIONS. Simply: we’ve rejected our emotions, told them “NO.” We’re human beings—we have a body, we experience emotions, and we have a mind, we think. It’s necessary to focus on both parts of ourselves. That’s why Dr. Bach focused on both the body and the soul, aiming to achieve harmony between them.
Bach essences can help you once and for all identify and release the emotions stuck in your body, which may have reached a stage where they’re limiting you from functioning normally, both mentally and physically.
