Resistance is Fruitless

 So you want to change…

You realize that there are some habits that are stealing your Dream or hindering your ability to live your purpose.

You are committed to this change because achieving these new quality of life is essential to you.

So why are you stuck?

It feels like the Borg in reverse. You are trying to be more of who you are and want to be, but there is a resistance in you that keeps you assimilated to the old learned limitations.

Old stories are ruling your presence and sequestering your future.

What is going on?

These old stories you learned early in life were embedded with life/death urgency. At the time you were trying to figure out how the world worked so that you could survive on it. The stories about the world, survival and “how things are” became embedded in your Reptilian Brain, the part of your brain that functions for your survival. It learns fast and forgets with great difficulty. This is the way that it protects your survival. But it also means that all those false beliefs and erroneous assumptions you made as a child are embedded with such strength as to override everything else, and they are hard to release.

These stories become like the collective machine part of the Borg, the parts that sequester your highest and unique self-expression.

But you are an adult now! You know those stories are not true. You are making different conscious choices. So why are you stuck? Or why do you end up with similar circumstances?

Your RAS (Reticular Activating System) is like the guard dog guarding the portal between your conscious and subconscious minds. RAS will not allow anything into your subconscious that:

• is not in agreement with who you FEEL yourself to be,
• has been taught to be dangerous or bad for you, or
• Is unfamiliar, and therefore seems dangerous.

In any of these cases, your alarm system activates all your Survival Biological Systems, which include:

• Amygdala
• Nervous System
• Psoas Muscle
• Triple Warmer Meridian

This creates a resistance that makes your attempts to grow, heal and transform completely fruitless.

You need to interrupt the old patterns, the old story and embed a new story, and you also need to store this new story so that it is recognized and so that the old story does not come back with a vengeance.
