Powerful discussion about another angle of the move Whiplash.
The inner voice. That inner voice, which is like a drill sergeant, non-stop, keeps them in states of chronic unease. Or Disease.
Addicted to perfection, a book by Marion Woodman is helpful.
And some perfectionist suffer from procrastination and self-sabotage. They delay until they must do it and they also delay to avoid a task because they aren’t sure they can do it perfectly. They are afraid of failing so delay. It’s a genius design but untrained it becomes hurtful.
Do you know this inner voice can be a source for success and/or a source for things like autoimmune, cancer, anxiousness, and even depressed mood.
People suffer because they have not been guided on the benefit of using this inner voice to their advantage. Training it. Befriending it. Understanding it.
First you have to learn it even exists. Then learn to not simply believe it, not even trust it, but to learn about it. After understanding, that voice hold within it the potential to guide you to amazing places. Until a person learns and understand, it often beats the s**t out of them and berates them all the day long and no one else knows the battle that an individual faces every hour of every day. They get tired of it, it leads to emotional and physical exhaustion and that causes major health problems and prescription drugs are often the only solution offered. That’s a sad state.
Not everyone has this inner voice. And MOST don’t even have awareness around the inner world.
I work with women who have reached this point. And need help understanding how to navigate this for healing.
