Essentials: Are You Blended Or Solid In Your Sense of Self?

<p>Essentials: Are You Blended Or Solid In Your Sense of Self?<br/><br/>The fawn response focuses our mind and awareness outside ourselves.  In my work, I call this the External Orientation.  This means we&apos;re interpreting our reality through the lens of other people, places, or things.  We are not associated with ourselves and not processing reality through our own perception and lived experience.<br/><br/>This orientation can lead us to feel diffuse, fluid, or blended with others - especially their feelings, their opinions, and their priorities.<br/><br/>We end up taking on things that we don&apos;t actually agree with, like, or are compatible with our personal, unique well-being design.  This is how we either lose ourselves or never come to really know who we are.<br/><br/>Somatically, or in our felt-sense, this shows up as feeling undefined, partially real, incomplete, &quot;missing something&quot;, or feeling lost and confused.<br/><br/>Mentally, we&apos;re hyper-focused on what the &quot;right thing is to say or do&quot;, highly concerned about the other person&apos;s perceptions (especially about ourselves, as that tends to define our worth), and we believe that we have to figure out how to make things work.<br/><br/>No wonder we don&apos;t know who we are!<br/><br/>The solution to this habit is simple, yet not easy to implement.  I call it, &quot;Internal Orientation&quot;.<br/><br/>Learn what this is and how to start implementing it in your daily life in today&apos;s episode!<br/><br/>***<br/><br/>Tired of being stuck, lost, and hopeless in your efforts to actually heal and experience real peace, freedom, and progress in your life?  Join my on-demand workshop, The 3 Secrets To Healing Codependency Permanently and discover how to unlock your natural ability to heal your codependency and thrive in confidence, peace, and freedom.  Click here: https://3sworkshop.freetheself.com<br/><br/>Join my email community to get access to more episodes, tools, my writings, and more here: https://connect.freetheself.
