The Story within the Breakdown.

Posted on by Dr Harry Henshaw

Another component of gaining insight has to do with becoming present to the story that the person is creating with respect to the breakdown.  While the emotional state of the individual is very important to become aware of, listening to the story that he is creating is also of equal importance.  Within holistic counseling, every emotion is created by a thought.  When there are negative emotions present in a person’s life as he is experiencing a breakdown there are also corresponding thoughts taking place.  The thoughts that are taking place will appear as a story in the person’s mind.  Within the breakdown the story will be other oriented, involving external people, places, things, circumstance or situations.  Within the structure of the story, inherent to it, will be the belief that the external events are the real and the true cause of how the person is feeling.  It is with these thoughts that the breakdown and inauthentic way of being exists, something that is made up about another, hiding what it is truly about.  Blame and resentment will eventually result.  Becoming present to the story is vital if one is not to impulsively act upon it and as a result bring its destructive consequences into existence with respect to his life.  Becoming present or an observer to ones story is crucial to transforming a breakdown and getting back on track with ones life.

Within the work of holistic counseling, the process of gaining insight will assist the individual in becoming authentic and also allow that person to stay in his recovery.  Gaining insight is a very important component of holistic counseling, the utilization of which allows the individual to move out of his self-limiting belief and back into being his created possibility.  When one begins to experience a breakdown he has gone back into being his self-limiting belief.  Their will be the story which is made up about what is happening in his life and also that which is hidden from him, that which is truly directing and creating his life, including the story. The technology of the insight process allows the individual the ability to transform his experience by being authentic and as a result letting go of being his self limiting belief thereby regaining his power and freedom through being his possibilities.  Utilization of the process of insight as with transformation itself is a practice that requires a great deal of commitment.  As with any skill the structure of gaining insight is taught and it is in communication with the persons coach or even sponsor that its implementation is brought forth into the individual’s life.

Taking Care of Yourself through Transforming Stress.

Posted on by Dr Harry Henshaw

Learning how to take care of ourselves involves making appropriate distinctions about ourselves, others and life in general. One distinction that is crucial for our well being is realizing how and from where much of our stress is primarily generated. While some of the stressors that we face are apart of what it is to be a human being, much of the stress that we experience is of our own creation. A great deal of the stress that we experience has its origin in our own personal story and the meaning we make about life, in the thoughts that we think. Once we understand that we are truly the cause in the matter, that we are responsible for the thoughts that we create or invent and that it is from these thoughts that much of our stress is generated, then and only then will we begin to be able to truly manage our stress and have the power to live the life that we want and love. Blaming others or situations for that which we experience will only limit our power, lead to frustration and eventually a great deal of stress.
