Release Your Story

You are human--therefore you try to explain the world to yourself by telling yourself stories. We all do this. Humans have been doing it since the dawn of history. Just think about the ancient cave paintings which archaeologists show us the story lines. Many of these stories are an attempt to make the world make sense and to keep us safe. But a common problem is that, without information and guidance, these stories often have very little to do with the actual world of cause and effect that we live in. This is especially true when you try to make sense of overwhelming things that happen before you are 5 years old. Your brain is very immature, and you often can't tell the difference between something that is real and something you imagine. Just think about the monsters that you knew lived in the closet. If no loving adult helps you sort things out, you may keep on believing the story into adulthood and keep barricading the closet door. Your energy is tied up in that story and not available to help you manage the real world. It makes sense to examine those stories and release the energy stored in the ones that no longer serve us.

Letting It Go

Your Past Influences Today’s Stories

When Emily was 4, she didn’t know what to do about her mother’s illness and unavailability so she froze that bit of her angry and confused energy and created a story. The story she created was about being responsible for taking care of her mother because she had made mother sick.

As Emily matured, she translated her story, with the help of other information from her surroundings into the story that she had to take care of everyone else in order to be accepted. And it seemed to work, until it filled up all her available time and led to overwhelming anxiety that she could not keep up with the load she had imposed upon herself.

What happened to you in the past influences the stories you continue to tell yourself throughout your life. Since you often created the stories in response to stressful or uncomfortable situations they may no longer be useful to you. In any case, they serve to separate you from your true Self.

I often remind my clients that everyone creates stories. That is how we are built as humans. The problem comes when we believe that the stories are true and act accordingly. Before I learned Logosynthesis, I suggested to my clients that when you are caught up in a story that explains your world, you can experiment with creating more stories that explain the situation in different ways. Sometimes creating silly or extreme stories helps you recognize how arbitrary the stories actually are.

That process is still useful but does not reset your automatic pilot. The Logosynthesis process can help you release those stories that cause you distress and can help you release the energy stuck in the story and all it represents. The process also allows you to become more aware of who you really are at your Essence—your true Self.
