Aspire Magazine: Inspiration for a Woman's Soul.(TM) Feb/Mar 2020 Aspire Magazine FULL Issue | Page 29

I  dentify your unhealthy patterns
that stem from insecurity: Notice
the patterns you engage in to avoid,
resist, or cope with any feelings of
insecurity.Trace your personal history to
discover the origins of these patterns.
Identify the patterns and when they first
occurred and the people and
circumstances that trigger them in the
present. Ask yourself the following
questions: In what past situations were
these patterns formed? Do I have any
unfinished business related to them,
such as forgiving my family? Discuss
your insights with a trusted therapist or
supportive friend.
D
 istinguish between your
external identity and your true
being: First, write down as many
ways to identify yourself focusing on
external characteristics such as: My
name is . . . therefore I am, I think . . .
therefore I am, My work is . . . therefore
I am, or My body is . . . therefore I am.
Now drop down into your heart and
write down as many ways to identify
your being such as: I am light…
therefore I am; I am love; therefore I
am, I am a co-creator; therefore I am,
or I am divine energy; therefore I am.
Finally, write the second group of
affirmations on Post-it notes and place
them where you can see them.
As we reach a higher level of spiritual
development, we have to do the inner healing
work to free ourselves from the shackles
of insecurity. We must be accountable for
recognizing and then releasing the co-
dependent patterns that inhibit our soul’s
expression. It’s time we break the cycle and
stop repeating these patterns so that we can
spiritually grow and thrive.

up today, with this person or in this
situation? What are you here to show
me? What do you need from me to feel
secure? Allow yourself to be still and
allow the answers to float to the
surface in whatever form they come
through. You can journal the answers
