    Anthony DeMello famously said:
    “The first thing to realize if you want to wake up
    is that you DON’T
    want to wake up...”
    Our somatic programming DOES NOT
    want to wake up (aka: deprogram).
    Instead of listening to and believing the resistance/repression -
    which can look like feeling stuck and dysregulated, among other things -
    we can just expect it.
    Here’s just a few tricky ways that repression can show up in our experience:
    1. Nervous System Dysregulation
    2. Addictive Behavior
    3. Anxiety and Depression
    4. Chronic Pain
    5. Compulsive Enemy Making
    6. Chronic Self-Doubt
    7. Brain Fog and Confusion
    8. Bouts of Self-Hatred / Self-Attack
    9. Isolating and/or Withdrawing
    10. Choice-less Approval Seeking and Giving Our Power Away to Others

    We’re all traumatized, and we all need compassion and healing. Thank you for raising consciousness. I always want to learn from Tim Fletcher.

    Senior abuse in retirement communities and how it exploits and manipulates the “family box”, agencies and then channels up to government paying out to ruthless, calculated bleeders of finances from the unknowing public. I could write a book myself. It has so much to do with TRUTH. Emotional abuse causes stress and the stress causes, in my case, adrenal failures. I must listen to this over and over it makes so much sense…thank you

    Thanks for the new format. It’s easier for me to listen to. I had a difficult childhood with a military family. They yelled and were loud. It still causes anxiety for me when people are loud. I will catch up soon! TY 😊

      I get auditory overload. I cant deal with clashing noises or more than one thing occurring it's really jarring to my senses.
      I'm pretty quiet if I'm relaxed but if I'm talking to other people I end up talking really far too loud than is appropriate.
      It's like my internal volume knob is faulty and not tuned in to the volume of others.
      I'm pretty sure I saw in another video of his that sensory stuff is also linked to trauma?
      I reckon my stuffs probably to do with coming from a very noisy house where everyone just constantly shouted over the TV and over each other.
      I love restful voices like Mr Fletcher's it's very soothing. Hope he brings out an audio book someday, or makes a sleep playlist. It's probably not all that healthy for my psyche to keep falling asleep to True Crime documentaries lol (its coz of the monotone narration, I swear!)

    The Matrix was amazing at showing how we think we are living when we are just surviving as batteries for other entities.
    As a military child, we were in fear when our parents were on the front lines as observers in the occupation of nations by the Russians and also the 6 day war.
    It was psychologically upsetting and the propaganda was unsettling.
    Years later as a parent in the middle of a sudden plow wind and tornado, while camping on a hill, we were in mortal danger. I told my children to go back to sleep and we prayed Jesus to protect us. They went to sleep. Soft snoring. In the eye we woke them up and got into our vehicle. Years later we talked about when it was reviewed on the news. Because I had been through the stress of propaganda of radio broadcasts. My mom snapping the radio off when the commies jammed and over rode the radios. I learned that war was not black and white, it was oppresive and stressful. And those in authority need to absorb the bad parts of culture so that survival is about more than victory. So against the storm that came at us twice, we survived and trust was built. Childre need trust.
    The BBC kerps pumping out war drama garbage. What you say is true, humans need to be human.
    Living in fear is not healthy.
    What you say about greatness is true.
    What you say about winners and losers and black and white is true.

    • @Charity-vm4bt

    Politics follow a changing culture. Our western culture has become completely disfunctional. Separated from truth and reality. This has happened before. Over and over again. There is always a scapegoat. It's going to get ugly. Just like the home I grew up in. My violent anger has been triggered to the boiling point again. There is no political solutions to these problems.

    I have loved this entire series until this video. You’re actually bordering on sending people who are in an unhealthy emotional state (AND YOU KNOW IT) to go protest. This is HIGHLY irresponsible as a medical professional!!! I have a formal diagnosis of CPTSD and have been with the same amazing therapist for 11 years - I don’t believe she would ever give such ill and unhealthy advice!!! Do better!!!

      The abortion ban stuff is kinda nuts. Like I’ve done endless research on how people work on all levels of understanding ,and there is not really evidence that things like pro-life are actually about saving lives. At least at the group level. It’s more a mating strategy designed around being reactionary hierarchial defense activists that litterally every single position at the group level they have across history lines up with defending the hierarchy and also often about punishing out groups that threaten their cultural world view that they use to buffer their terror management theory death anxiety. And so to buffer the anxiety, they need to fight and impose on others in order to feel safe. It’s messed up. And don’t get me wrong, I get much of that red pill stuff too about how women function. or at least the EP stuff, and yet this thing is still nuts.
