Who Are We?

Who or what is running your life? It certainly isn't you.
Did you know that you are pre-coded? What I mean by this is you are your ancestors' inherited traumas. This isn't woo-woo... it's neuroscientific FACT.
And all shamanic healing traditions are centered around this knowing. This is why they say in old Gaelic shamanic traditions we need to “balance the Weave”… because we inherit trauma… and we pass it on energetically through our DNA and our energy currents. We hold 7 generations of crap and what we do not heal is passed on to the future 7 generations.
Why life seems harder in the last 10 years than in the 20 years before:
There are more solar flares and geomagnetic storms.
There are increased weather patterns.
The energies are heightened and frankly, humans have done a lot of really dumb shit… one of the biggest ones being to not heal their own inner traumas and secondly, losing that sense of self that allows you to tap into your own intuition, which is your inner guidance system.
We read headlines and scroll social media for hours. Do you think that stuff doesn’t carry a frequency that impacts you? Think again!
Mental health problems are on the rise, but why?
Blame your Amygdala- the brain's emergency broadcast system.
However, it doesn't notify you directly... it calls in the troops... named cortisol. It pulls from scripts from different timelines, including ancestral memory. That stuff- those scripts, are encoded on your DNA.
Also, blame society, as it has given the vibe that it is ok to be a f’ed up mess and victim consciousness is rewarded with attention. Think I am wrong? Think back to the mass shootings… who gets the attention? It isn’t the victims or their families. We are drawn to darkness and drama. The media gives attention to it and this gives “some” the idea this is a good way to get the attention they seek.
Where is the personal responsibility we should feel for dealing with our own shit? I believe most are numb and dumb to the fact we pass this shit on. We do not teach our kids how to be responsible for their own shit… because we don’t want to face our own.
Depression, anxiety and panic attacks are not "present moment" related... it is INHERITED. It is PAST shit screaming for your attention.
Depression: stuck in a past timeline script.
Anxiety: stuck in a future timeline script that is rooted in timeline from the past. Yet, we fail to recognize it is coming as a warning, saying “Hey knucklehead, do you see we got shit to heal here”?
yep... the anxiety in today's children is inherited from the parents' unresolved trauma... the grandparents' unresolved trauma. Biological and cellular memory that becomes a code that replicates time and time again, lifetime after lifetime. You need to know we can re-code it, but it isn't easy.
It sure the hell isn’t comfortable.
Approval was/is the currency of love and survival:
Look at how you change yourself or sensor yourself to fit in.
Back in the day, a lack of acceptance made it difficult to survive, so we learned to shrink ourselves down to not be persecuted. Now imagine you are carrying 7 generations of this shit.
So, no, this isn't YOU. You are ancestrally programmed.
Now, add in all the news, TV, social media shit... more programming.
So effectively, you are an avatar, a child trying to navigate a world built to program you. There is absolutely no free will in that unless you reclaim your awareness.
You are merely auditioning for love, for acceptance, for survival.
Every single one of us struggles with hypervigilance:
Each of us carries ancestral scars of war, exile, abandonment and rejection that likely resulted in our demise.
You are an actor in someone else's tragedy, and you are bleeding out and not getting paid for it. YOU ARE AN ACTOR in someone else’s play!!
Choose authentic self over obedience. Become the author of your life!
The body completely regenerates itself in 7 years, so today there is no single cell in your body that was the same as even 8 years ago... so how is it that you are STILL being triggered as if you are a wounded child?
The answer:
Programming. Codes.
Where and how the darkness gets in:
The evil one, I do believe is a real force, so we need to understand how it works.
It attacks our focus to create division.
It takes away personal authority, self-control, willpower and discernment.
It preys off your need to fit in and be accepted and feel safe.
It knows your trauma and will hijack your emotion… remember, all emotion is rooted in the PAST… only sensation is in the present moment.
It manipulates with emotional intensity to confuse you (this is a warning sign you have been hijacked).
So, if you feel some form of intensity, in the moment, ask yourself what your reaction belongs to.
How to go about finding YOU:
Awareness is a weapon, so do not trust your first emotion... it’s a hijack. Trace it back to its signal/source. Anything you do not have control or awareness of, is not you. But karmically speaking, you are still responsible.
Pause to find the middle, the breath between. Your authentic self lives here.. between the trigger and the reaction. It is the “now”, the present, and it can undo the past bleeding into your future. This means we gotta slow the eff down.
How many of you have become catastrophists and think of how to prepare for "worst case scenario"? Change the “prediction”. Your brain tries to prepare for what it predicts, so change the narrative. But we need to be aware of the narrative first (awareness!).
In doing this, you rewrite your chemistry, you rewrite reaction into response, you rewrite your future... by actually writing the past right out of it. Trust me, this is really hard work… I know this from personal experience.
Ask yourself-
Who's script are you playing?
Who's voice is it in your head?
Who's experience are you playing out from whatever timeline?
Who's rules are you obeying?
Your reactions don't belong to you... they belong to the past.
Rebel against your inherited limitations. This is how you get true freedom. Free will is directly related to awareness.
The difference between something that is true and the Truth itself:
Something that is true is a statement or fact that accurately reflects reality (the sky is blue), while Truth itself is a deep unchanging principle, with integrity, beyond mere facts, that represents a holistic understanding that embodies inherent meaning, character, wisdom, or an absolute, unchanging state.
The "me" you refer to isn't YOU… it is the “you” being controlled by ghosts of your ancestors.
Truth isn't something we learn... it is something we remember.
