Get to know your Shadow and work with it.
Unidentify from your regular beliefs. Remember beliefs are temporary and they will change just as your circumstances do.
Get to know your Inner Self through the realm of the body; ask yourself frequently “What am I feeling right now?” and let the answer unfold itself by sensations instead of words at first. Take your time! This is not a fast exercise.
Gain consciousness of your ‘roles’ and ‘characters’ – which are the most common ones you fall into and when do they ‘come out to play’?
Practice consciousness: be a witness to yourself, use slow and deep breathing, and gain mindfulness about everything you do.
Get to know yourself in these four dimensions, differentiating between them: thoughts, feelings, sensations, intuitions.
Practice interesting games such as suspending of judgments for a whole hour, or expressing yourself without swearing to see what other language and form of expression comes out of you.
Adopt an innocent attitude as if you were a child, and play the learning game for a whole day: Rediscover everything, give yourself the chance of not knowing (and be ok with it), give yourself the chance of not having the last word nor trying to prove someone wrong. At the end of the day ask yourself gently: What did I learn from myself today?
If you made a mistake, laugh at yourself, laugh with yourself, then forgive yourself, just as an act of love.
Explore what happens to you internally if something doesn´t go your way. Explore your reactions. Write them down. Then read them out loud pretending you are a character from a movie. What do you feel?
At the end of the day, be thankful for all the ‘bad things’ that happened. Explore what feelings and fears come to you. Let them exist. Allow yourself to truly thank bad things that happened. Practice this for a week and register what changes in you after this.
