216 George Bryant: Exploring The Shadow Self For Healing

Jul 17, 2018

There are 4 rules that I live by: no fault, no guilt, no blame, and no shame. In a 24-hour day, I probably go by those rules maybe for 30 minutes, but I always choose those 30 minutes wisely to forgive myself at that moment and move forward. - George Bryant

How can you acknowledge, embrace, and neutralize feelings of shame, blame, and guilt in order to connect with the people in your life?

Power Quotes From The Show

"Human connection is the remedy but the first step is to discover an authentic connection to yourself. It's about who you are at the core; not who you think you are or pretend to be but unapologetically who you are at the core." - @CookingCaveman http://bit.ly/wfpodcast

"Talking, in general, is the most underutilized and important facet of any healing. I don't care if it's with a therapist, a mirror, or your dog. How do you neutralize fault, shame, blame, and guilt? It's really, really simple. Those emotions only have power over you as long as you allow them to stay your head." - George Bryant

"There's this illusion that once you've done the work, you can let go of everything but that's not true at all. You learn how to coexist with the feeling to the point of where it's no longer toxic but neutral. As I go through my life and have all of these experiences, every one of these experiences is like a new neighbor moving into my neighborhood. The truth is that I really hate some of those neighbors and when I resist them, they resist back stronger. When I can love my neighbors by simply acknowledging their existence, they become neutral and I can choose not to listen to them or give them power for just 30 seconds before I take it back. It's a daily practice." - George Bryant

"If there are any thoughts that we have in our brain, mind, or being that are taking up real estate or affecting an emotion that's anything but neutral, that only reason that it's capable of doing that is because there's only one person that knows that it's even happening and that's us. These thoughts keep us disconnected, in self-sabotage mode, and we stop ourselves from telling anybody because we want to be right about our stories and it's uncomfortable to go to the other side. However, the moment you can take a thought and speak it into the universe, it neutralizes the charge because it's no longer just yours; now it's everybody's." - George Bryant
