Deep dives
Loving Self-Awareness and Shameful Self-Awareness
Loving self-awareness and shameful self-awareness are two different states of consciousness. In shameful self-awareness, we are trapped in patterns of self-hate and shame, believing that we are inherently bad. This perspective is often influenced by societal and religious ideas that humans are born sinful. On the other hand, loving self-awareness is about recognizing that every part of ourselves is seeking love, warmth, and belonging. It is about understanding that all our actions, even the ones that may hurt others, are driven by an unconscious desire to access love. By embracing self-understanding and the acceptance of the present moment, we can begin to cultivate loving self-awareness and create change in our lives.
