Emotional Healing: The Real Hero’s Journey
September 22, 2008 | Comments | Deep, Gratitude, Uncategorized, news, psychology
As some of you know at the end of last week we graduated the “Deeplings of 2008. I have to say I am extraordinarily proud of each and every one of them for the Emotional Healing they fiercely embraced.
The Journey into “Deep” is a courageous one…
Few will ever be brave enough to enter, let alone complete the Emotional Healing and Growth that is required to Reclaim the Authentic Self.
“Deep” is a hero’s journey to go back and find what was left behind in a place falsely named ‘history’. It is falsely named because…
History does not only exist in the past. History lives in every cell and every fiber of our being. It is the calcified tears we dared not cry that stiffen not only our bones but the expression of our lives. History is the constriction of our veins and arteries from laughter that dare not be laughed in a childhood where children must be adults because the adults around them never grew up and faced their own pain.”
Who among us is brave enough to stand as a champion, a guide and a warrior for that lost child?
Who among us is bold enough to say; it wasn’t good enough, the child deserved to be fully alive in all it’s feelings including play?
Who is now willing to go back and get that child, hold it in it’s sadness and give it permission to cry all of it’s tears?
Who is now willing to go back and free that child’s spirit to play in the universe of imaginings?
Who will now hold up that child’s spirit as a great light to the world that can laugh deeper, wilder and more authentically than was permitted?
I will tell you who…
The “Deeplings” of 2008!
400 individuals participated in the intro modules and only 16 graduated to the freedom of reclaiming their “Deep” Authentic Selves, and I am very proud of each and everyone of you.
Below I’d like to share a poem with you, yes you, who still hear the distant voice of a lost child that is yourself, not in some distant history, but the child who lives in the moments where you fall in love with yourself again and again.
Who will cry for the little boy
by Antwone Fisher
“Who will cry for the little boy, lost and all alone?
Who will cry for the little boy, abandoned without his own?
Who will cry for the little boy? He cried himself to sleep.
Who will cry for the little boy? He never had for keeps.
Who will cry for the little boy? He walked the burning sand.
Who will cry for the little boy? The boy inside the man.
Who will cry for the little boy? Who knows well hurt and pain.
Who will cry for the little boy? He died and died again.
Who will cry for the little boy? A good boy he tried to be.
Who will cry for the little boy, who cries inside of me?”
I look forward to your authentic coments about Emotional Healing…
