Hello Friends,

In this Witches Cauldron, I discuss an activity pulled from the Book I just reviewed, The Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents by Lindsay C. Gibson, PsyD. The exercise is on how to awaken to your true self.

In life we play a lot of roles. Sometimes we unintentionally create a life based on a role from childhood, or a role that helped us survive a traumatic event that maybe no longer serves us in our regular life.

The exercise is to fold a paper in half and at the top of one half, write out True Self, and at the top of the other side write Role Self.
Now turn to the True self and go back to pre 4th grade, what did you like doing, who did you like being with, what was a really great day like. Next look at the Role Self, What roles do you fill start out simple, son, daughter, brother sister, and then think career roles, or even what you needed to be like to be respected.
NOW TUCK THIS LIST AWAY FOR 24 HOURS!
Longer if you found this exercise triggering. You need your emotional responses to come down before you can attempt to be objective about what you wrote.

I hope this exercise opens your eyes like it did mine.
As always take what resonates and leave the rest.
Thanks for listening!!

Until next time,
Love and light!
