Sometimes I listen to this field Regain your innocence (energetically programmed audio) - YouTube because I want to be completely free of all negativity. If we want to change this world, then we must change ourselves. Give evil energy no chance to infect your energy field. Innocence is very important.

Do any of you have theories on where our shadow comes from? Iāve been contemplating this recently while thinking about the process of shadow work in our healing journey. If we come from pure consciousness, god or source which is unconditional love, where does all this darkness and trauma come from that needs to be integrated or healed? Why doesnāt it seem to affect us much when we are children? It must still be present, but we are naturally joyful and happy when we are kids. We donāt have to work at it, it is our natural state.

i like this question!
this reality started off pretty chaotic and that chaos continues to reflect from generation to generation.
shadows in this scenario are the actions based off primal survival and are echos of what happened to get to the current state of the present moment.
we had no other references to what was happening to us as children and as we develop we would get smarter and have more experience, but because of that it pushes memories of ātraumaā further and further away until we can only recall whispers of it.
shadow work would be to continue living life and recognizing these patterns that happened to us when we were younger and having more and more tools at our disposal to face it in its entirety.
thatās the great part of all the shadow work that once it is cleared thereās more room for our true nature to shine through and express into our present moment.

So, are you saying you feel a lot of what we are feeling is energies in the collective of this reality and not personally our own?
Iām not sure what you are saying here. You mean because of the veil that blocks our memories of other lives?
Unfortunately, that hasnāt been my experience so far after 16 years. I am beginning to wonder if there is no end. Especially when you factor in the concepts of trauma in the collective consciousness that we could be tapping into. We could potentially spend eons cleaning all that up.
In my own analysis and contemplation of this I feel for me personally what I am experiencing is related to my physical body, the energy layers of my body or the dense energies of this reality. I donāt seem to carry any of it with me when I leave this reality.

iām just localizing it to the life you have right now. iām addressing the behaviours passed down from ancestor to ancestor like a game of telephone.
easier to observe your parents and ask them questions about your childhood. that will give you a ton of answers you can work with.
thatās okay and speaking from personal experience yeah life just keeps going whether like a river keeps flowing.
i would say to just help where you can and let go of feeling like Atlas and carrying the worldsā issues on your own shoulders. we all collectively made a mess and iām hoping weāll collectively work together to clean up and not just a small portion of the collective.
yes, but all of our experiences and how we affected others linger in this reality. one way to leave this place better than when you entered is to continue helping others while respecting your boundaries.

Yes, I think that is a part of it. Dr Bradley Nelson discusses inherited emotions and trauma in The Emotion Code.
We can also be feeling the collective emotions from other people in our city or the world. Especially if you are an empath. It can be difficult to distinguish what is ours or someone elseās. Because of the interconnected nature of consciousness, if we begin tapping into the collective trauma the process of healing could feel endless. Shielding is suppose to help with this.
This may be one of the challenges. When we begin the spiritual journey of expanding our consciousness, itās the opposite of localized. An affect of expanded consciousness is more awareness of all of it, the light and the dark.

youāve taught me something as i am realizing iāve been making choices that i thought were mine but then i notice it was more of a collective subconscious. just recently i quit my job and yes i had my reasons, but then i find out a few days later that the company was making employee rule changes that would make me want to quit anyways. also in this time thereās news going on about āthe great resignationā that i also found out about after my own resignation.
could you expand (pun intended) on this? from my understanding of the conversation i said what i said because children have more of a localized experience until they get older and experience more and more. children have an easier time accessing their happiness and excitement for the world because everything is new to them and they have the innate feeling that anything they do can be achieved.
like you mention with shielding, to find your own inner child is to look inward and bring your needs to the forefront while temporarily putting everything and everyone in the back burner so you can process and grow.

Yes, I agree as children our experience is more localized. I was referring to my current state.
My main goal when I began my spiritual journey was a deeper understanding of God, consciousness and how reality is being created. Spiritual practices and energy work over time greatly expanded my awareness and I received many of the answers I was seeking. Itās like if your awareness was very focused on one narrow spot, you are only aware of that spot. But if you expand the light of your awareness til it illuminates the entire room, house, city or world, now you are aware of so much more. But more awareness of all of it, the light and dark, the joy and suffering. Itās very easy for me to tap into and feel the pain and emotions of others now. What we perceive as separation, myself and others is an illusion we create. So, expanded awareness brings new challenges.

an option you could try is to control how much you are aware of.
this is practical because there is a correlation between happiness and being carefree the more an empath focuses on themself and their needs.
if youāre able to make others happy and help them, then you can widen your scope of awareness and be happier in a wider state of consciousness.
like a hobby or skill, start small and manageable and work your way towards more and more.
