SERIOUSLY SPEAKING - WHO YELLED AT YOU?

Unfortunately, a lot of our learning is based on systematic bullying.

We get scolded, yelled at, labeled, branded with 'bad' grades…

Often, our teachers, parents and doctors have bought into this system of teaching.  After all, it was how they learned…

And of course, if learning tasks was our only life goal, it might work…  But at what cost?

Remember that 'kick the cat' line?  Each person abusing the one just a little lower on the totem pole?

One of the saddest pieces of this story is how we abuse ourselves!



DANCE WITH IT!   EXPERIENTIAL APPS                           
An opportunity to experiment with some fun ideas…

WHO YELLED AT YOU?
Can you remember …
          Being scolded?
          Yelled at?
          Ridiculed?
          Called names?
          Hit?

Can you remember how these things affected you?

And most importantly can you see how you might have passed on this legacy?
          To others?
          To yourself?

Imagine having a dialog with the bully part of yourself.  
Can you suggest it take a walk?
