The Akashic Masters showed us several times where she organized and constructed plans for family events. There was a brief scene where she talked on the phone with a friend about a problem she was having while searching for the answer that would solve it. The appearance was that Lucy is a thoughtful friend and family member, a true professional and concerned with keeping facts straight.
After we exited her Akashic Records and began to talk, Lucy acknowledged that what we saw could also mean she was a bit of control freak. “I just know I can do it better than most,” she laughed. “And most of the time, people let me.”
The belief beneath the pattern
As our conversation continued, she began to see that her first thought wasn’t the entire story either. “Consummate professional” was a mask as well. “I remember earlier this year an editor called me out on a statistic in an article I’d written,” she told me. “I felt like the rug had been pulled out from under me. I pride myself on perfection in my writing and I was really disturbed by the accusation.”
We finished our session, but it was only the next day when she wrote to me with the amazing discovery of what was underneath the drive to figure things out, to be perfect at anything she did.
As I processed our time together, I kept coming back to that experience with my editor.
I realized she didn’t really accuse me. It was more like she just wanted me to double check.
It bothered me that I made it out to be something it wasn’t when we were talking and it kept niggling at me. When I journaled the next morning, it hit me. I only feel safe when I have things figured out. Her asking me if that statistic was correct threw me back to childhood and I suddenly felt very unsafe. I realized that as a kid I believed if I had it figured out I was less likely to get hurt. I had no idea I’d brought that with me. Imagine, I’m
45 and still acting the way I did as a child when something makes me feel unsafe.
This revelation was life-changing for her. And all because she made herself a priority at the end of the year, setting aside the drama the holidays can create, and exploring her behavior to clearly identify a belief that held her back.
You can’t change unless you know
This belief was deeply seeded in Lucy, but she is committed to changing the behavior created by it and that’s how the belief itself will change. She shared that when she feels the drive to figure something out or to be perfect, she now asks herself where she’s not feeling safe. By addressing what’s really going on, her journey of change will be much shorter.
It’s the perfect time of the year for this kind of work. The end of a year closes a cycle so why not begin a new one in a stronger and more informed place? The Akashic Masters and I are here to help in any way we can. From classes to one-on-one sessions, you can learn how to access your Akashic Records and dissolve the beliefs that don’t serve you. To get you started, I’ve included the Prayer for Releasing Old Beliefs below.
Whatever you celebrate at this time of year, I hope you do it with joy and love and connect with those who matter to you in a meaningful way!
Until next time,
PRAYER FOR RELEASING OLD BELIEFS
Mother, Father, Goddess, God, help me to grow so that I can comfortably take responsibility for my actions and my life.
I understand that I AM a Creator Being having a human experience.
I release old blame and beliefs that anyone has “done this to me.”
I stand in my power as a Divine Creator of my life experience.
So it is. Blessed Be.
