You know exactly which voice I’m talking about, don’t you? You’ve heard it, it’s the one that tells you how fat you are, how stupid you are, constantly reminds you what you have screwed up, and what you cannot do, be or have. You’ve heard that voice your whole life. She has talked you out of things and talked you into them too. She makes so much sense sometimes it’s hard not to listen to her!
She’s very practical, extremely outspoken, and tells it like it is. Or does she? She was created by your subconscious at the very beginning of YOU. She filtered information from the people who took care of you – like your parents-which is why she sometimes sounds like them! Her job was to keep you safe and secure. She represents the boundaries that were created to keep you out of harm’s way. When you strayed beyond the safety zone she was there to reign you back in. She kept you from physical and emotional danger – by replaying your parents warnings against running into traffic, and she recorded the experience you had when you burned yourself touching the hot stove. She kept track of literally millions of messages, warnings and experiences and played them for you to keep you safe. She came in very handy when you were four years old!
As you grew older and your world got bigger, she stayed the same. It became more difficult for her to keep you safe, so her voice got louder and more aggressive, sometimes downright mean. Nobody told her that your needs changed. She never got the memo. So, there she is still trying to keep you living within the boundaries t you needed as a toddler. She keeps you safe, by keeping your world small. She is so dedicated to that mission that she will do and say anything (play dirty tricks, replay bad memories and deep fears) to keep you “safe”.
We give so much power to this Voice. We let her make decisions for us, give us advice, dictate how we live! We let her hold us back from our own greatness because we believe her. We may think of her as our Divine or Inner Guidance, but in reality she is a relic of our past. She is an alarm system we no longer need.
The next time you hear her harsh, critical, attention grabbing, paranoid, cruel voice, dismiss her. Look at her for what she is. Talk back to her! Tell her to beat it! Feel free to use any kind of language that feels good to you! If you want to tell her to F**K Off, do it! Don’t worry about being nice, she never does! If you’re not that angry, you can simply thank her for her years of service, acknowledge her “point of view” (that’s all it is!). But don’t give her credit for being your Inner Guidance. Your True Inner Guidance doesn’t threaten you or manipulate you with fear, she inspires you and help you see your beauty, strength, power and promise.
