In the last section we activated your mama vision – and what the embodiment of this feels like (what I call being in your Mama Goddess).
In this section we’re going to access what we call your Pain Body. This is the shadow aspect of your being that has you unconsciously say, do or react in ways that you may later regret. This negative patterning often stems back to your earlier experiences in life and is powerfully described by Eckart Tolle in the book, ‘The New Earth’, as your PAIN BODY.
You may have noticed that when you did your Mama Vision there was another voice that said something like:
“But I’m not like this a lot of the time.”
or
“Its too hard. If only my situation was better, I’d be a better mother.”
or
“If my child was different or if I had more help, or if there was less pressure … I’d be the mother I really want to be.”
or
“I’ll never be the sort of mother I’m yearning to be.”
This negative thinking is your Pain Body speaking. It’s a neural (brain) pathway from your past that is manifesting now in your body, feelings and thoughts.
For a lasting change to your Pain Body you need to bring awareness to these old unhelpful pathways and patterns and use embodiment and transformation practices to create new supportive brain pathways.
We’re going to explore this Pain Body so we can bring awareness to it and begin the process of change.
{Download, print out and do the exercise in the Info & Playsheet, ‘Pain Body Process’. Listen to the Pain Body Healing Meditation to accompany the ‘Pain Body Process’ and to support you to release unhelpful patterning}
You’re invited to share in your village FB group. Even though this can feel vulnerable many mothers find it very freeing to put it out there and be witnessed in such a loving space.
Listening to and experiencing the Pain Body Healing Meditation daily this week and regularly throughout the program and beyond will begin developing positive neural pathways in your brain and you will begin to expect healthy shifts in the way you manage your reactions to life experiences.
With love,
