Today our country celebrates freedom but are you REALLY free?

Building the life of freedom I have for myself today, was a miracle...

You Will NEVER Guess What’s Written in My Baby Book....

Hello love,

For years I thought the doors to love, joy, success and freedom were locked on the outside and that I could never open them.

Today I know they were locked from the inside and it was through my inner work that I learned to unlock them. I keep large unlocked doors from Morocco in my house as a reminder that I can open them whenever I want now, and I help others do the same.

Through sharing the work of shutting up and sitting with the world, I have shared my own story too: some of the details of my parents’ staggering levels of dysfunction: Like alcoholism, drug addiction, and domestic violence.

For example, my baby book notes the very first time I drank a beer: At nine-months-old. Seriously. It was 1972 and my mom was only 18 years old and living in staggering dysfunction and despair.....bless her heart, she did the best she could all things considered.

And the first time I got drunk: At eleven-months-old.

That’s just how my life began. With chaos and raw emotion, alcoholism and drug addiction, survival and lack and despair.

But, throughout all those years of drinking and drugging, violence and dysfunction, suffering and despair, I wonder if anyone ever thought to themselves: We need to STOP.

I doubt they even knew they could.

This week at Shut Up & Sit, we’re talking all about how to stop negative thoughts and feelings in their tracks, opening ourselves up to choose something different.

Something better, that nobody can take from you.

It is how I found REAL freedom, TRUE freedom, LASTING freedom, INNER freedom.

Do you desire inner freedom? Freedom from your mind? That part of you that holds you back, second guesses, lives in fear, doubt, pain, shame?

I am starting something new to help YOU achieve inner freedom.
