Child Abuse: What Can Happen If Someone Was Verbally Abused As A Child?

If someone was abused as a child, it could be something that they are only too aware of. Many years will have passed since they were a small child, but it could seem as though very little has actually changed. They would have gone through hell during this part of their life and they could still be going through hell now. Each day of their life could be a struggle, with them wondering if there is any point in them staying alive. Another Experience

Depression: Why Do Some People Get Depressed When They Give Up Extreme Sports?

In recent years, a lot has been said about mental and emotional health and how so many people are not in a good way. Largely, the focus has been on the inner challenges that the average person is trying to deal with. Along with this, there have been times when different celebrities have come out and spoken about their own challenges. In general, these have been actors, singers and reality TV stars. Another Area

There Is Nothing Wrong With You!

There are a number of reasons as to why someone would get into self-development or try to change themselves. One reason that this can take place is because they believe that there is something wrong with them. Now, this is not to say that one will be aware of this belief, as is it can be a belief that is running in their unconscious mind. What this then means is that even though they will have this belief, they won’t realise it. A Massive Impact

Receiving: Why Do Some People Feel Guilty When They Receive?

On one side, there is receiving, and, on the other, there is giving. Now, although it would be easy to say that each of these elements is as important as each other, this is not the case. One of these things is more important than the other and this is because if one of them doesn’t take place, it won’t be possible for the other thing to take place. The most important thing is that one has the ability to receive. For Example

Is Dubai A Physical Representation Of The Conscious And Unconscious Mind?

Recently, I have come across a number of people who will be moving to Dubai, and this has made me think about the place. I have never been there, but I have seen pictures, videos and heard stories about it. On the surface, it seems as though it is paradise on earth; everything looks perfect and it is tax free. It is then a case of who wouldn’t want to live there, not who would want to live there. The Other Side

Critical Thinking: Should Germans Feel Guilty For What Happened In The Past?

After the first and second world war, Germany had to pay back a lot of money in reparations. According to some accounts, this money has now been paid off, but there are other voices out there who claim that more money still needs to be paid. Along with the price that Germany has had to pay financially, there is also the price that individual Germans have paid emotionally. And, even though most of the Germans alive today played absolutely no part in what took place all those years ago, it doesn’t mean that their conscience is clear. A Mixed Response

Shame: Can Someone Hide Themselves When They Are Carrying Shame?

It could be said that the only way that someone can hide from others is if they isolate themselves. Therefore, if they are around other people, it won’t be possible for this to take place. Nevertheless, while this might sound accurate, it is something that has very little basis in reality. In the same way that someone can hide by isolating themselves from others, they can also hide when they are around others. Disconnected

‘Men have a Strong Aversion To Shame’

In the book ‘Manhood’ by Steve Biddulph, there is a section where he says that “a deep aversion to shame has become wired in to male biology.” The reason that is put forward for is that “throughout history, women are most sexually attracted to high-status males”. What this means is that if a man experiences shame, it will be interpreted to mean that his status is lower than other men’s. The outcome of this is that he won’t be seen as sexually attractive to women, which will stop him from being able to attract a mate and pass his genes on. An Unconscious Process

Critical Thinking: Why Do Some People Believe In Conspiracy Theories?

Thanks to the internet, it is easier than ever before for people to not only get hold of information, but to also disseminate it. What this has meant is that no matter what someone wants to know, there is a strong chance that they will be able to find out about it online. And, someone is free to share their views online; that is of course, unless their views go against the official narrative. There may be certain sites where they can share their thoughts, but due to the amount of control that is now in place, there is so much information that is now seen as being off limits.

Relationships: Why Are Some People Attracted To People Who Are Emotionally Unstable?

For some people, being in a relationship with someone who is unreliable, unpredictable and who has the need to keep them on edge and in a place of uncertainty is not going to interest them. If they were in this position, it might only be a matter of time before they walk away. Being with someone like this is then going to be like offering dark chocolate to someone who can’t stand the stuff; it will repel them. A quick decision will be made, allowing them to walk away.

Self-Righteousness: Can Someone Become Self-Righteous If They Feel Worthless?

Just as there are many ways in which someone can respond when they get to another country, there are also a number of ways in which someone can respond when they feel worthless. In the same way that going to a new country can have a big effect on someone, feeling worthless can have an even bigger effect on them. It would be more accurate to say that it not just a feeling, as it will most likely be something that has permeated their whole being. To see it as just a feeling would create the impression that it is something that can simply be ignored and have no effect whosever.

True-Self: Do Some Peoples Childhoods Set Them Up To Disconnect From Themselves?

There is the chance that they are aware of what is going on up top, but are unaware of what is going on down below.

After a number of months have passed, a woman may see that her partner is overly focused on his mother. Regardless of if this stood out in the beginning, then, it will now be something that is only too clear. The next step can be for her to talk to him about what is going on, to see if she can make some headway. Most likely, she will hope that by pointing out what is going on, he will gradually change.

As a result of this, it can be normal for someone like this to be overwhelmed by their emotional self and to lose their ability to think clearly. This could be how they have been for as long as they can remember. If this is so, they may believe that this is just how their life is and there is absolutely nothing that they can do about it.

What someone may find is that it is hard for them to take action, with this being something that they need to work on. At the same time, they may find that they are able to take action when it comes to certain areas, yet struggle in others. Either way, it will be vital for them to do what they can to change this.

Being this way is naturally going to make it easier for them to function at their best and to enjoy life. If they were often emotionally flat or taken out by how they feel, it would be much harder for them to experience a fulfilling life. Balanced

Critical Thinking: Is Being Able To Cause Offence Part Of Free Speech?

The mainstream media often talks about people who have caused offence and how these people need to apologise for what they have done. Additionally, it is not uncommon for people in the public eye also say this. Based on this, offending someone is tantamount to physically harming them. So, in the same way that there will be a ‘victim’ and a ‘perpetrator’ when someone is physically harmed, it will be as though the same dynamic exists when someone ends up being offended.

Critical Thinking: Is It Easy For The Media To Manipulate People's Emotions?

It has been said that the mainstream media doesn’t need to prove that what they sell is the truth in order to influence people; the only thing that it needs to do is to make sure that people see the information. What this comes down to is that once someone has been exposed to a certain view, it can end being seen as the truth. Like a sponge, their mind will have absorbed what they have seen, with it having an effect on how they perceive the world. This information won’t have been held at a distance and scrutinized by the critical faculties; it will have just gone straight in.

Intimacy: Can Childhood Trauma Cause Someone To Have A Fear Of Intimacy?

It has been said that human beings have a strong need to form deep and meaningful connections. These are then not the type of connections where only surface level things are spoken about and an emotional distance is kept. With this type of connection, someone will share what is taking place in their mind, their heart and allow themselves to be vulnerable, and the other person will do the same thing. Neither of them will keep an emotional distance, thereby allowing them deeply connect to each other. One Area

Trauma: Can Childhood Trauma Stop Someone From Being Able To Stay In Their Body?

When someone is in their body and feels connected to it, they will experience life in a certain way. For one thing, they will be aware of what their feelings and needs are, and this will mean that they will be in touch with their true-self. Along with this, they will probably find that they feel fairly at ease and that their breathing is deep. The connection that they have with themselves is then going to have an effect on the connection that they have with others. A Mirror

This is a message that has been expressed directly and indirectly. Over the years, there have been plenty of people in the west that have heeded this advice. This has meant that some people have only had one child, while others haven’t had any children. Two Parts

How To Develop Self-Compassion

What you may find is that although it is relatively easy for you to be compassionate towards others, it is not as easy for you to be compassionate towards yourself. So if another person makes a mistake, you could offer words of support; but if you were to make a mistake, it could be a very different story. Others can then see you as a compassionate person, yet you will be anything but compassionate to yourself. It is then going to be necessary for you to treat themselves with the same level of kindness that you often show others. Something to Consider

Law Of Resonance: Does Someone Need To Let Go Of Their Resistance If They Want To Manifest Something?

What can be normal is for someone to spend a lot of their time and energy focusing on what they don’t want. This can be something that just happens and it can be seen as a result of what their ancestors when through a long time ago. Ages ago, when human beings had to fight off predators to survive and were scratching around for food, they had to be tuned into danger and “negativity”. If they weren’t this way, they wouldn’t have lasted for very long. A Remnant of The Past

False Self: Is The Need To Rescue Others Part Of The False-Self?

For as far back as one can remember, they may see that they have had the inclination to save or rescue others. As a result of this, they will be used to being there for others and doing what they can to ‘help’ them. For so long, it would have seemed as though they were doing the right thing, but there would have come a point when they came to see that living in this way wasn’t truly serving them, or others. This could even be something that they were forced to accept, after getting to the point where it was no longer possible for them to behave in this way. Waking Up

Child Abuse: What Beliefs Can Someone Have About Other People If They Were Abused As A Child?

If someone was abused and/or neglected as a child, they might not have a favourable view of their fellow human beings. As a result of this, they will be part of the human race but they can feel the need to keep their distance from others. Through being this way, their life is likely to be far harder than it would be otherwise. Instead of being part of the human race and having other people who are there for them, it can be as if they are all by themselves. An Analogy

If someone is carrying a lot of emotional pain, they may do just about everything that they can to keep it at bay. This could take place by taking things, doing things, and focusing on things. What this will typically do is stop them from having to come into contact with what is taking place in their body. Clearly, then, they are not going to feel strong enough to face this pain; if they did, there would be no reason for them to run away from it. Inner Conflict

“A Relationship Shouldn’t Stop Us From Realising We Are Alone”

I have often thought that even though I can say something to someone, it doesn’t mean that they will actually hear what I’m saying. Or to be more precise, they can hear the words that come out of my mouth, but that might be as far as it will go. Due to the experiences they have had on this planet and what certain things mean to them, for instance, the message I was trying to convey may have gone straight over their head. Therefore, even though we spoke the same language, it can be as if was speaking a different language. A Unique Experience

How Do You Develop Courage?

The other day I was looking through a book called, ‘How to Survive Without Psychotherapy’ by David Smail. From what I read, it was clear that this was someone who was not too keen on the type of approach that is often taken when it comes to mental and emotional problems. He didn’t like the fact that so much weight was put on the individual, when the reason they were not in a good way was largely because of the society that they lived in. Putting the onus solely on the individual was seen as something that wasn’t good for their mental health either. Another Part

Critical Thinking: Is It Wrong For A Man To Approach A Woman?

When a brand released a short film a little while ago focusing on ‘Toxic masculinity’, a lot was said about how it demonized men in general. One part of the short film that stood out for a lot of people was where men were lined up in front of BBQs, with this being a clear example of men who had been castrated. Naturally, it would have been too blatant if these men’s penises had been chopped off and were on the BBQs, and it would have been too explicit too. So what they did, to get around this, was to have them lined up in front of a BBQ with a sausage cooking.

There are children who, practically from the moment they were born, were made to support a certain sports team. This is likely to be a team that one of their family members also supports. Perhaps this family member ended up supporting this team because one of their family members behaved in the same way when they were younger. Still, once a child like this gets the point in their development where they have the ability to think for themselves, it is unlikely that they will end up supporting another team. Fully Absorbed

Therefore, they won’t need to achieve anything or to please anyone; they will just feel good.

The ideal would be for someone to get a clear idea about what they want to achieve and then to go about achieving it, without there being anything within them that would hold them back. After all, they will have enough to deal with exte ally without there being anything internally to overcome. Their inner clarity - along with the support that is within them - would supply them with what they need to keep going, no matter what challenges arise. And, if this is what happens when they set out to achieve something, there is the chance that they don’t have trouble moving forward.

This was something that I had heard about a number of years before, but after hearing it again, it reminded me of how powerful our story is and it made me think about it more deeply. If you are not familiar with the term ‘our story’, one way for you to understand what this means would be to for you to think about how you see yourself and how you see life.
