Sometimes referred to as “top dog”, “the Judge” or the “internal saboteur”, our internal negative voices have become familiar and consistent companions. When we unknowingly agree with their debilitating accusations it does harm to our soul. This inner voice-when believed- eats away at our sense of self, crippling our creativity and spiritual potential.

I began to see that there was another level, so to speak, separate from the problem itself. How I thought about, felt about, and most importantly the meaning I was assigning to my problems was this other level. This was a brilliant insight and the beginning of my becoming unstuck. Just being able to see that my thoughts about the situation mattered as much, or perhaps even more than the matter itself empowered me to consider that change might indeed be possible. In fact, it caused me to realize that my thoughts may be the only thing I could change if I wanted to.
