01. Mind Safety Self-Reflection

One of the primary roots of suffering, dis-ease and incoherent resonance is an underlying belief that you are not safe and under a chronic level of threat. Usually, this perception is associated with any type of past (including ancestral trauma) or present trauma that has not been completely resolved and/or is still playing out in real time with regards to your underlying beliefs, thoughts and perceptions on whether you are safe or not. 

To get the most out of this self-reflection, it is best to set the intention to refrain from any type of positive or negative judgment and be neutral in your observation. Be open and curious about what you may discover about your sense of safety relative to your mind. Perhaps this may bring more compassion and mercy to support your healing journey.

 

Reflect on the prompts below for ~3-8 minutes, at least 1-2x/day for 1-2 weeks. *Unless otherwise directed.

  • You don’t have to do or change anything, this practice is focused on bringing your awareness to your sense of safety in your mind.
  • Perform this self-reflection again in about 2 weeks to assess your progress and to gather any new information to continue to support you and your greatest good.
  • Optionally, use your testing technique to determine your optimal frequency and duration to use this reflection technique or perform the Resourcing Safety Meditation.

 

Mind level safety self-reflection prompts:
  • Reflect on the current state of your underlying thoughts, beliefs and perceptions that you are safe and secure. These can be unconscious or conscious. See if you can uncover any shadow aspects in your mind about your sense of safety. 
  • Do you notice an overall pattern or are there certain triggers which bring up these thoughts? What or who are they?
  • What are you fearful of in your life?
  • Reflect on how you may still be under the perception that any past traumas (of any nature) might still be active in your mind, such as your underlying beliefs on whether you are truly safe or not. How might they be presenting themselves? 
  • Reflect on how any underlying perception of threat you have plays out in the choices and behaviors you have previously made and currently make.
    • Do you try to over-control certain aspects (or maybe all) of your life? 
    • Are you a major planner vs “going with the flow” and being able to be spontaneous?
    • Are you risk averse?
    • Do you choose new experiences, situations and people or avoid them?
