In this video, I'll share how the Law of Attraction made me confront my need for approval. Discover how we can unknowingly give our power away to external sources like the Law of Attraction and how to reclaim it for ourselves.
This is Chapter 3 in my series: Diary of an Alchemist. This series is me re-telling my journey over the last 6 years through emotional healing, inner child work, shadow work. I took extensive notes and have 20 journals to reflect on to remember what I was going through and what I was feeling.
The reason why I'm sharing my journey so publicly is because I know the immense amount of inner peace, confidence and happiness I feel as a result of it. And while I can be the happiest me that I can be in this life - that's as far as the impact of my journey will ever go, if I never talk about it to anyone else.
However, if I share what I went through, I may be able to help others learn how to move through very difficult emotions and release limiting beliefs and shift into a place where they feel happy, peaceful and confident too. A world full of people who are kind, empowered and take no shit, will be a very awesome place indeed.
