Dethroning the archetypes that dim your light and mute your voice

Welcome to your RECLAMATION.

Many of the voices in your head that cause you to distrust yourself, to mute your voice and to reject your light, are not yours. They are the echo of collective survival archetypes that latch onto fears that you have yet to transcend.

If you’ve followed my work for a while, you may know that I often talk about 4 main fears that hinder our ability to be seen and expressed in the ways we truly desire. The fear of humiliation, alienation, loss and persecution. These fears are the core pillars behind self-abandonment.

Because as human beings we are adaptative machines, we are all equipped with protection mechanisms that shield us from these fears and the pain beneath them.

These safety mechanisms often take the shape of survival archetypes that become voices in your head that will hijack you and cause you to repress your authenticity.

Some of these archetypes are the inner critic, the saboteur, the victim, the imposter, just to name a few.

The grip of these archetypes can be so strong that you might have a hard time differentiating between their voices and your own.

Even though at first glance each one of these archetypes seems to be hindering your true nature and a return to your power and brightness, they all hide a higher purpose. They all represent an endarkened intuitive guidance that needs to be illuminated and reclaimed. They are all a rallying cry for more integration. And when you embrace that path, you begin your reclamation.

Embracing the initiation

There is an initiation that is needed every time these survival archetypes flare up. When your saboteur derails you, your inner critic rages, your imposter shrinks, and the victim collapses, it makes sense that the first impulse you have is to want to dissociate from these aspects. That would also rob you from the wisdom that they hide.

Just to give you a nudge for instance, behind the rageful bouts of your inner critic, there is an invitation to truly individuate, to let your life be led by your own values, and not the echo of the shaming you received when you didn’t honor the values of people who raised you. There is an invitation to explore how the fear of alienation is still running the show in your life and how you can uproot the limiting grip of that fear.

There is a method to this practice. It demands that you romance these survival archetypes enough and that you awaken from their trance in order to reconnect to your power. It often requires a detour into the shadow so that you may disarm the fears that unconsciously cause you to call upon these protection mechanisms.

This work is a reclamation. Challenging these archetypes will rewire your inner landscape and enhance your capacity to let yourself be fully expressed.

I’d love to extend to you a special invitation. This Sunday I am hosting a in-depth workshop called RECLAMATION (of course :)).

Reclamation is a 4-hour skillfully crafted live journey designed to help you

• Break free from the limitations you've adopted as your own.

• Dethrone the survival archetypes that dim your brightness: imposter, critic, saboteur, prostitute and victim.

• Reclaim the energetic stamina to express your authenticity, lead with impact, share your gifts and your brightness to the world

• Unleash your creative potential and dissolve the resistance that stifles your voice

• Lead, love and serve from your heart, not your wounds.

This is the big clearing you’ve been needing. If any of this resonates with you, head over HERE to save your spot.

As always, thank you for reading.

In gratitude and reverence,
