Ever woken up in a relationship and realized that the funny, considerate, and affectionate dream boat that you fell in love with has been replaced by someone closed off, snarky, and sanitized? Have you ever felt the overwhelming resentment and disappointment that accompanies the realization that yet again, you're dating your ex?! Different shoes same bad news!
Frustration sets in. This may not be the first time that you've woken up with your past, and you're desperate to know, "Why does this always happen to me?!" It's an excellent question, and the good news is that it's not a complete fluke.
You may have heard the myth that we only use 10% of our brain. While our conscious mind does only occupy 10% of the property upstairs, the other 90%, our subconscious, is fully functional. We can blame it for groundhog's day scenarios like these.
Ever thought, “What happened, he's like a completely different person”? Here's the deal, your subconscious saw that 'different person' coming from a mile away. It's smart like that.
At the start of a relationship, our conscious minds are in a love haze. We're rockin' all those love hormones, and it's hot! Underneath all of the lust and butterflies, our subconscious sees something in the match that says, "Here's a healing opportunity.”
What the heart knows, and subconscious misses is that even though wounds invade from the outside in, healing begins on the inside and blooms out.
Here's to healing yourself from the inside out, and finding the everlasting love that you deserve!
Amen to that sister!
