Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 571

Are you aware of the archetypes that are stopping you from reaching your full potential?

Greg SchmausGreg Schmaus, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom podcast, episode 571, to share how core archetypes represent your relationship with your own power, why you should heal your inner child, and what it takes to break generational patterns and become at peace with your life.

"Ego is a collection of archetypes that protect the safety and security of your inner child. You're not really able to ascend into higher states of consciousness that 30,000 foot vantage point until you've healed your inner child. Because the vulnerability of your inner child will always keep pulling you back down." - Greg Schmaus

Power Quotes From The Show

The Ego Protects You

"Our ego is always trying to protect what life is always trying to annihilate. Life has a target on your core wounds because the universe knows that until you heal those core wounds, you're always going to be brought back down to that level of development. You're going to attract situations in life that are going to give you an opportunity to heal core wounds that you experienced as a child." - Greg Schmaus

Collective Wounds

"A lot of times we have this illusion that if we keep revisiting things or the same things keep coming up, it means we haven't healed that in ourselves. Which maybe that's true but I think there's a possibility that that's not true. A lot of the things that we're healing within ourselves are not actually ours personally. They're collective patterns that we're voluntarily working through as a way of transmuting that energy out of the collective." - Greg Schmaus

Intuition = Relationship with God

"Your relationship with God directly connects to your relationship with your intuition. Your intuition is an expression of the higher self that's guiding you towards your potential which a lot of times goes against what feels safe and familiar. If you're still in your survival archetype, always needing to go to self-preservation, you're going to override intuition to always go into that self-preservation because the two are in conflict. Once you heal these survival archetypes, you're in a different relationship with truth. And when you're in a different relationship with truth, now it can come in without as much interference from all of these survival parts telling you why it is not a good idea." - Greg Schmaus

Your Power Is Your Energy

"Where you give your power away is where you give your energy away. Where you give your energy away is where you give your vitality away." - Greg Schmaus
