If your self help/spirituality/personal growth practices are making you feel like there’s something fundamentally wrong with you that needs to be fixed - please question these methods.
SO much of what is sold to us as the ‘fix’ we need to live lives that are going to feel better than the ones we have now are centered around the idea that we are broken in some way, and that if we just figure out how to fix ourselves - how to get rid of our coping/self sabotage, if you can just stop being codependent, if we can just rid ourselves of our laziness or ways we don’t ‘take responsibility’ enough - that in doing so we will find our best lives ever.
They are centered around the idea that we have these coping mechanisms, self sabotaging behaviors, that we are lazy or shameful or have relationship patterns that hurt because we are just choosing to be terrible and thus we just need to choose to be better.
This is a false understanding that oversimplifies what’s actually happening with us, what the solutions are and how we can actually support ourselves in feeling better.
The real ticket here is this - if we are feeling shame or like we are broken from the start, we aren’t seeing the ROOT of why we are how we are and we are therefore never going to be able to grow and heal in the ways we want to grow and heal.
At best we will only ever be pruning the leaves.
If your self help, personal growth and spirituality isn’t helping you FIRST see that you are how you are for a GOOD REASON and then giving you tools to SUPPORT yourself in finding better ways of being - then it’s not it.
