WITH CHRISTINE HASSLER

EP 176: Freeing Yourself From Your Past with Betsy

This call is about breaking patterns, shifting identities, and looking at life from a spiritual perspective. Today’s caller, Betsy, has done some therapy but can’t seem to shift her story. During our discussion, we uncover that Betsy is basing too much of her identity on her past and with people who weren’t meant to play such a big role in her life.

So many of us are addicted to suffering. Why? Because it’s a comfort zone, it’s familiar, it’s what we know. It’s perpetuated by our limiting beliefs and on some level, we think we are supposed to be suffering. And, we hang on to our addiction to suffering because it gets us love and attention. Or, at least we think it does. Do you think you need to earn the good things in your life?

The main reason for going back and reflecting on your past is so we understand why we think, feel, and behave the way we do. Not to blame your past or to try and go back and change it. Your past doesn’t define you. If you grew up feeling scared, rejected, and unloved, it does not mean you have to feel that way now or in the future. It has nothing to do with your identity.

My next Spring Retreat in San Diego is taking place on March 15 – 17.If you want to feel physically lighter, emotionally free of sadness, worry, and anxiety, mentally clear and accepting and confident of your body go to ChristineHassler.com/Spring-Retreat or email Jill@ChristineHassler.com to save your spot.

And, I will be conducting a Retreat for Men, Women, and Couples on the magical island of Maui! Spots are limited for this intimate gathering. There is an application for this retreat; visit ChristineHassler.com/Hawaii or email Jill@ChristineHassler.com for more information.
