Here’s Why Your Self-Image Can Hold You Back


We develop our Self-Image in our family. We come to see ourselves as we were seen by our parents and siblings during critical periods in our formative years.

In reality, your Self-Image is a surface affair, conditioned by your family and your culture.

It’s made up from borrowed and downloaded ideas about who you are, about your physical and psychological characteristics, about your intelligence and abilities and about your value and worthiness as a human being.

Although your Self-Image is largely formed and conditioned by others’ Views of you, you still come to think of it as who you really are, as your “I” or “me”.

In fact your Self-Image becomes your “Wrong Psychological Address” , a place where you reside much of the time, but one which isn’t your true home.

It’s not where you belong, but you probably don’t realize that—yet.

It’s probable that a good deal of your recurrent anxiety, depression and frustration expresses a deep desire within your soul to connect to your “True or Right Address”.

Expert therapy combined with authentic spiritual practice (not New Age woo woo or the “Secret” and “Law of Attraction” stuff) can make you conscious of your soul’s longing and put you in a position to satisfy it.
