Hi Betty
Welcome to the community. I haven’t been on the board for some time but I am glad to be back. I was on the last call and really enjoyed it. Have you had a chance to be on the monthly calls yet?

Hi It’s good to see your post. Welcome to the community. How did you hear about this Life School and it’s community?

I couldn’t have gone as far as I have in creating Authentic Power without Commitment. Over the years of practicing I have had the thoughts of “this is too hard” “I don’t understand how to do this” “This is too painful” “I don’t want to do this any more”. If I hadn’t had the support of my Spiritual Partners along with my Commitment to my spiritual growth, I would have believed these frightened part thoughts and removed myself from this community. I would have looked for something that is easier and less painful. Commitment to my spiritual growth is one of the cornerstones in creating Authentic Power and what a joy to be able to have this live discussion

Hi all! Just got on the board…

Thanks Gail,
What a wonderful call on Saturday! It really was timely for the holidays and to remind me that when I am feeling “stress”, I am resisting my life. It is much easier for that frightened part of my personality that feels stress to blames others, try to fix things or run away from a situation so I can feel better. I am excited to see where “stress” comes up this week and I will post my experiences as I challenge the frightened parts of my personality and do my best to create Authentic Power.
Sending love,
Lori

Hi Carol Ann
I thought I noticed something too. Is it possible you have an active frightened part of your personality that is trying to manipulate in some way and is so familiar that you were not aware of it when you posted?

Hi Chi and Jennifer
I have been a member of this community for some time and I still find myself in frightened parts of my personality that hold back and don’t connect. It is something I challenge all the time and I am excited to see new people on the board. Welcome!! I look forward to connecting again and often!
Sending love

I love the questions and exercises in the 25th Anniversary of The Seat of the Soul. Starting a study group has really opened up my relationship with my son. He is 23 and our conversations are deeper and more meaningful than I ever thought possible. I feel alot of gratitude towards Gary for chosing to put together the guide and giving us such a great forum to practice creating Authentic Power!

Hi Gail
I am soo excited to have my family here with me this year. I do notice a frightened part that believes my holiday would be better if my mother-in-law were not here, in my home. So for me to create consciously would be to stay present to the fear based thoughts and feelings, remembering my intention to create from the most loving place and to choose love no matter how much my frightened parts want things to be different. It will help to open to compassion for her and myself.
With love

Hi David
Good to hear you are beginning to feel better. When you say that you usually “resist it” What does that mean? Do you pretend you are not sick? Ignore it? How does resistance work in this case?
Love
Lori

Hi Deb
Thanks for sharing your process. I will be interested to hear how your continue cultivating compassion at your place of work. This past week I have noticed my mother in law become weaker and more confused. The only thing that motivates her is smoking on the front porch and having her TV turned on in her room. I can see she is lonely and her frightened parts have kept her from building a life for herself. I didn’t have as many frightened part thoughts come up this week around her behavior. I have more clarity when I am around her and can see she doesn’t know what to do in most situations and that is okay. I can support her by keeping my heart open and looking to see what I can learn about myself when a frightened part comes up and do my best to respond rather than react. What I mean by respond rather than react is when a frightened part of my personality becomes active I notice what I am feeling, where I am feeling it, notice the thoughts, and then do my best to come from the healthiest part of my personality that I can find and then respond with love.

Hi Kristen
Thanks for sharing with the community. I love this forum and work each day to create Spiritual Partnerships and Authentic Power and this is a great place to practice. You and I have had conversations about your frightened parts that don’t feel good enough or feel that you can heal this pain and I can feel your intention (desire)not let it control your life any longer. I have a question. When you are in the frightened parts of your personality that feel superior or inferior, how will you choose equality? Do you have steps you follow or do you use the SP guidelines? Would you share your process?
With love
Lori

Hi Joanne
Where was the pain in your body when you discovered your frightened part was not getting what it wanted? Is this a familiar frightened part of your personality? In other words, when have you noticed these same thoughts and feelings come up?
Sending you love
Lori
