are all worthy of loving our life

0:28

0:36

of healing from narcissistic relationships

0:39

is allowing it or

0:41

using it so it becomes

0:43

part of our spiritual path

0:45

. We can use narcissism

0:48

as a means of finding our true

0:51

self , so we can distinguish

0:54

what is real from what is unreal

0:56

, what is narcissistic

0:58

, what is the truth ? What

1:01

is an illusion ? What is real

1:03

, what is gaslighting ? What

1:06

is the truth ? It

1:08

enables us to actually get

1:10

to the real reality , the truth

1:13

of everything . A quick

2:03

2:05

2:07

2:10

2:12

2:14

a difference . I

2:16

2:25

2:27

please do subscribe or leave

2:30

a review . That'd be great . I

2:32

really appreciate that . So let's dive into

2:35

the conversation . So

2:37

many spiritual teachings are

2:39

stating that what is real is

2:42

our true nature , is

2:44

perfect . You are perfect

2:47

and that is the truth around

2:49

spiritual beings . The spiritual

2:51

part of you is so

2:53

beautiful , is so perfect . There

2:56

is that part of you that is

2:58

so perfect . What is unreal

3:00

is the egoic

3:02

part , and what is narcissism

3:05

is the extreme egoic

3:07

. All on this scale . We're

3:10

all on this scale where we have a sense

3:12

of self . We have a little bit of narcissism

3:14

. We do have the ego . We don't

3:16

want to make it into a bad thing , but

3:19

with narcissism what

3:21

we are we're going away from the truth

3:23

in a big way . So

3:26

narcissists have . They're

3:29

disconnected from

3:31

their truth , from the truth your

3:35

books speak of . God is love

3:37

. You know that

3:39

God loves his children . If

3:42

you don't believe in God but you believe

3:44

in the universe , in essence

3:46

, what we're saying is we're taking these teachings

3:49

and saying that the

3:51

universe is loving and

3:54

it really won't feel like that right now

3:56

. When we've been in a toxic relationship

3:58

, I can feel that it will

4:00

be far from what you feel . Yeah

4:02

, you know , if what we

4:04

have experienced is full of suffering

4:07

. So let's put that on hold for a moment

4:10

. But let's just be aware that's what the spiritual

4:12

texts are saying . Toxic

4:15

relationships we lose our sense

4:17

of unity with ourself

4:20

or we lose

4:22

our connection with the universe

4:24

and other people . We get out of flow

4:27

and people just don't understand

4:29

what we've been through . So we do feel

4:31

disconnected from people

4:34

. There's only so many people that we

4:36

can speak to and

4:38

will understand without judgment

4:40

. So how could anyone

4:42

understand that you

4:44

know who hasn't been through something

4:47

like this , that we have been addicted

4:49

to somebody that hurts

4:51

us emotionally and psychologically

4:54

. It doesn't make sense

4:56

, because , looking

4:58

at who you are , you

5:00

know you're much more deserving of

5:02

that . You're a smart person , but

5:05

you have lived with in

5:07

a world that is so full

5:09

of pain and we've had

5:11

to pretend to be strong , we've

5:14

had to pretend that we can handle

5:16

it . We've had to put our hopes

5:18

and dreams into this narcissist

5:20

, hoping that they will

5:23

become the person who

5:25

will show us the love that

5:27

we know we are worthy of . But

5:30

it never works that way . If

5:33

something isn't real , how

5:36

can it provide us with

5:38

satisfaction on any shape

5:41

or form ? Feeling

5:44

that they are an illusion

5:46

is so

5:49

disheartening and so much

5:51

full of pain , but

5:54

at the same time it

5:56

is so freeing

5:59

. Because if the relationship

6:01

is unreal and is

6:04

an illusion , if

6:06

it's narcissistic , it is not real

6:08

, it was not real , it

6:10

doesn't exist . If

6:13

it doesn't exist , it

6:16

has no real power over

6:18

you . Now this

6:20

relationship is not

6:23

the source of happiness

6:25

that you're looking for . Then

6:28

, when you can come to terms and it

6:30

is a process of coming to terms

6:32

with that , then the narcissist

6:35

can truly become irrelevant

6:38

in your life . Then

6:40

this relationship can

6:42

become a source of great

6:45

, great learning . Spirituality

6:48

speaks of lessons . That's

6:50

how we learn , we grow

6:52

, and it's when we have failed

6:55

to learn you know we've

6:57

gone through one experience but we haven't

6:59

taken the learning from it

7:01

that we will continue

7:04

to be presented the same

7:06

scenario , maybe even worse , again

7:10

and again and again , the

7:12

purpose being that , where

7:14

we might have made a mistake in

7:16

choosing , making

7:19

choices before , we

7:21

can then have the opportunity to make

7:23

a better choice . One

7:25

of the most important ways of learning

7:28

is learning how to choose what

7:31

is best for you . If you haven't

7:33

healed your emotional pain and psychological

7:36

thinking , you will choose

7:38

based on the emotions and

7:40

the thinking , from the pain that you've

7:42

endured , from the narcissistic

7:44

relationship in all areas of your life . So

7:47

you will choose

7:49

a relationship where you

7:51

think they

7:54

will stay with me , even though I know

7:56

they're not worthy of me . There's

7:59

a choice , there's a choice to be made

8:01

, and there is a voice . There

8:04

is a voice . Some people call it a gut

8:06

instinct , intuition , whatever

8:10

you want to call it . There

8:12

is a wisdom within

8:14

you that is your own internal

8:17

teacher , who instructs

8:19

you , guides you , shows you red flags

8:21

and leads you upon a path

8:24

of letting go

8:26

of everything . That is an illusion

8:28

that the narcissist

8:31

may place in front of us . But

8:33

this means that we have to learn

8:36

to trust

8:38

our gut instinct or our intuition

8:40

. So we see the red flags . You

8:43

see , the narcissist is always going

8:46

to take us down a route , a path

8:49

that isn't going to be good for us

8:51

. It's always going to lead us to pain

8:53

. It's never , ever on

8:55

our side . It gets

8:58

us chasing love . It's

9:00

like that carrot that we're constantly

9:02

chasing after this love

9:05

and happiness , that it is an

9:07

illusion , so it's always going to fail

9:09

. The narcissist wants us

9:11

to be stuck in this never-ending

9:14

cycle of guilt

9:16

, shame and fear , so

9:20

that we always are looking for

9:22

that illusion , that hope

9:24

, that want of having something better

9:26

for healing . We

9:28

need to understand this cycle , that

9:31

the cycle is guilt , shame

9:33

and fear that they want us to be

9:35

stuck in . You see , if

9:38

we look at the cycle , you

9:40

know the cycle

9:42

begins with love bombing and then devaluation

9:45

, and we go through this cycle over

9:47

and over and over again . I

9:50

mean there is a hoovering , et cetera

9:52

, but just let's take those two elements

9:54

, the love bombing and devaluation , and

9:57

there is the obviously discard . That's an extreme

10:00

devaluation . If

10:03

we keep going through this cycle and

10:06

most of us have been through the love bombing

10:08

, devaluation cycle , sometimes

10:10

many times through the day . You

10:15

just don't know how many times you've been through

10:17

that cycle . It's

10:19

so confusing

10:21

in terms of as a mode of

10:23

attack one minute you're being loved , next

10:26

minute devalued . It's the most

10:28

confusing thing ever in terms of being

10:30

attacked . It leads us to feel

10:32

compelled to think and feel that

10:35

this pain that has been inflicted

10:38

on us is down

10:41

to us . It's like it's my fault

10:43

, but the key to recovery

10:46

is whether we feel

10:48

like we're good enough is

10:50

to see the value within

10:53

yourself and then to heal

10:55

. The worst thing

10:57

is when we no longer value

10:59

or think we are worth healing

11:02

. Then life becomes

11:04

extremely gloomy and that's

11:06

when I feel it's so sad

11:09

that so many people live

11:11

in this . They live

11:13

thinking they're not worth healing

11:16

when we keep going through

11:18

the same cycle within ourselves

11:20

. So , even if the narcissist is

11:22

out of our relationship , out

11:25

of our life and not in a relationship

11:27

with them , sometimes we

11:30

will feel so positive

11:32

and we'll be like encouraging ourselves yes

11:34

, you can do it , you can achieve

11:36

your goals , I'm gonna do this . And

11:39

then the smallest thing happens

11:41

and we give ourselves a hard time we

11:43

become the worst critic

11:46

and we're down again and

11:48

we're actually not moving anywhere . We're just

11:50

going round this cycle continuously

11:53

. We're not actually moving forward

11:55

in our life with tangible results

11:57

in our life where we can see yes , I'm

11:59

moving forward , we are . We're

12:02

afraid to go ahead with our life

12:04

. We're afraid to face the

12:06

pain that they've created

12:08

, and the way to heal

12:11

is through cultivating love . You

12:14

might . If you've been listening to my podcast

12:16

, you'll know that I'm

12:18

big on love . Making

12:20

choices from a place of love

12:22

rather than fear is the way

12:25

to release the guilt and shame . It's

12:27

like you're actively looking at how

12:31

do I release this guilt and shame

12:33

, release the fear ? We don't need

12:35

to defend , explain or

12:37

justify yourself ever . You

12:41

are free to forgive yourself

12:43

for getting into the relationship . Then

12:45

You're free to release

12:47

these painful emotions . Love

12:49

is the most transformative

12:52

power in the world . In

12:55

the end , our love changes

12:57

the us faster

13:00

than putting pressure

13:02

and blame and criticism

13:05

on us within ourself . The

13:07

most , I think , healing

13:10

thing you can do in the world is

13:12

be there for someone with

13:15

real conviction and

13:17

to be able to look at somebody and say you

13:20

are not a bad person , you're worthy

13:22

. You're worthy of love , to

13:25

actually be able to do that for somebody is

13:27

the best gift that you can give

13:29

them . I'm not talking about you doing that to the narcissist

13:31

, because it really won't matter what you do . Unfortunately

13:36

it doesn't work . But

13:38

if you see someone that

13:40

you know that could get up , who

13:43

has empathy , if

13:45

you tell them that they're

13:47

worthy and

13:49

that they're a good person and they're worthy

13:52

of love , the difference it will

13:54

make to them is huge . See

13:57

what you are

13:59

worthy of in your life , and

14:01

when you start to feel worthy

14:04

in your life , opportunities will

14:06

start to open up for you . The

14:08

narcissist cultivates people to

14:10

feel lonely , defend and attack

14:13

them . They separate you

14:15

from who you are and separate

14:17

you from other people in lots

14:20

of different ways , where you start isolating

14:22

yourself because

14:24

we feel secretly guilty

14:27

for the thoughts and feelings that we have . Now

14:29

. Even you've got to understand

14:32

hating the narcissist is difficult

14:34

as well for you . You're probably a really decent

14:37

human being and you don't wanna hate

14:39

this person . This is not what you're about

14:41

. You have to forgive yourself

14:44

and start healing so

14:46

that you can start living your

14:48

best life . If you

14:51

want to move forward and you want

14:53

to heal , then maybe the Heal

14:55

to Five program is for you , it's intensive

14:58

, it's four months and it may

15:00

well be right for you . Do look

15:02

in the resources section . I only

15:04

take on a limited number of people every

15:06

month . So if you want

15:08

to heal 2024

15:11

and you want it to be different for you , do

15:13

look in the resources section . If you're interested

15:16

in investing in yourself , and

15:19

look to watch the masterclass and

15:21

see if you're aligned with the Heal

15:24

to Thrive program . In the meantime

15:26

, please do keep being loving

15:29

to yourself and I wish you a wonderful

15:31

2024 and

15:33

New Year celebrations and I'll see

15:35

you next time in the New Year

15:37
