SERIOUSLY SPEAKING - WHAT'S IN THAT BOX?

Can you see them squirming around in there just waiting to escape?

Why do those feelings - especially anger and sadness and jealously - keep coming back to bite us? 

Let's face it, these are deeply embedded and difficult feelings for all of us, and yes, 'working' on them does make a difference!

If you have been focusing on these feelings when they come up, and doing the 'work' - deconstructing their history in your life - you'll realize that each time they jump out of that metaphorical box, they are a little less virulent, each time their duration is less, and if you really think about it you'll see that they are actually less easily triggered! 




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

This week pay attention to how often your own Pandora's Box gets opened…
When it does, use your creative imagination to have fantasy dialogs:

Talk to the Box…
Talk to the emotions that escape…
Be the emotions…

What happens?

Remember with all of these dialogs, the more fun you allow yourself to have with them, the more personal freedom you create!

HERE IT COMES… AGAIN!

"I really don't get it."

"Here's the thing," he grumbled.   "I think I'm finished with something…"

"You know, something hurts me or annoys me and I think about it, talk about it, even work on it, and I finally think 'Whew!  Done with that one!'" 

"And the next I know," he complained, "something new happens and it's like that box of Pandora's flies open and all those awful feelings that I thought were gone are there all over again!" 

"Help!"


What do ya say?

Sound familiar?  
Do you get discouraged?
