Identity and image, the true definition.
Often people are in loops, hard on themselves for little to no visible change from all their work.
Sometimes self-awareness becomes another way to criticize yourself. The work becomes confirmation you are broken beyond repair. Truth is the fact you can name the pattern does not mean you can choose outside it instantly.
The moment you revert is not proof that the work didn't work. It may be the money an old response became more familiar than the new choice to your nervous system.
ASK yourself: what might this response once helped me protect, avoid or secure? This ain't about excusing your actions. It's about getting compassionately curios and gathering enough information to stop turning a pattern into an idenity.
Embodiment is not about never repeating an old loop. It is catching the loop sooner, meeting it with less judgement and creating enough space to choose your next response.
We are not broken because an old strategy still appears. Simply start to learn to relate to it differently, with patience and love.
P.S. If you want a supportive place to keep practicing this kind of embodied shift, explore the V-SAGA App Library with a free 7-day trial. 🦋🤗
