EP 397: When You Know What You Should Do But You Just Can't Seem to Do It with Cindy

<p dir="ltr">This episode is about a conflict between what our inner child wants and what our adult self needs. Today’s caller, Cindy, is in a relationship that she knows she needs to leave but she feels frozen. She is looking for guidance on how to move forward and take action. This can be applied to anything whether it is a relationship, a job, or a pattern. There are some great tidbits about why we don't shift. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">[For show notes go here: <a href= "http://christinehassler.com/episode397">Christinehassler.com/episode397</a>]</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">When we know there is an action we need to take but we just can't seem to do it we can analyze it, process it, and have awareness about it but we may still feel frozen and unable to take action.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Freeze is a trauma response. It doesn't matter how much we know what we “should” do when we are in a trauma response it all gets overridden with survival patterns. Our inner child believes that we will heal a wound by being with someone similar to the person who prompted our trauma. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">One of the best ways that you can make a change in your life is to do something different to get out of your comfort zone but to do it with a lot of love.  </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">For empathetic or people with co-dependent threads, love bombing is like a drug. Whether someone's a diagnosed narcissist or they have narcissistic tendencies, love bombing is not about the person receiving the love bomb. It's about control. It's not love.  </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">So, choose yourself. Legitimately and authentically love yourself out of the situation. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">My upcoming Signature Retreat is for women who want to go deeper into their own consciousness, release layers that need to go, expand their femininity, get clear about their purpose, and heal wounds. It is October 13-15 in San Dieg
