In this first session, we will explore how at the deepest level only two paths in life are available to us: “the path of fear” and “the path of courage and love.” Underlying the choice between these two paths is the moment-by-moment choice of one of two intentions. You will explore four different aspects of yourself that need to be understood and eventually integrated. Subjects include:

Understanding the intent to learn about loving yourself, and the intent to avoid pain through some form of controlling behavior

Understanding the various forms of controlling behavior that stem from self-rejection/self-abandonment

Integrating your essence, your ego-wounded self, your loving adult and your higher Self on another level

Defining the 6 steps of Inner Bonding

Becoming aware of the consequences of each intention

In this session, we will go deeply into your survival mechanism – the part of you that got you through difficult times as you were growing up.

Understanding the false beliefs of your wounded self

Becoming aware of where you got your false beliefs and your controlling, addictive behaviors
