Take a deep breath,
Let all the noise drift away.
Let's clock out and tune in.
Here's chitaternaling to heal the fear of being seen.
Survivors of childhood and various other forms of trauma,
Including those at the intersection of identities,
May adopt the fear of being seen.
They may feel as though being seen results in a burdensome lived experience.
And so as a result,
They can shrink or isolate themselves as a form of self-preservation and protection.
This guided journaling session is for those wanting to work through their fear of being seen on their trauma recovery journey.
And so beloved,
Welcome to this guided journaling session to help you heal the fear of being seen.
Team Alchemy here and we'll be guiding you through this inner work practice.
We'll be stating a question and leaving intentional pauses in between them so you can meditate on them and process your thoughts or feelings.
During this time,
You are invited to look within,
Journal your innermost thoughts,
Reflect on the following questions,
And answer them honestly.
Feel free to pause in between each question if you need more time to feel,
Process,
And release.
Does being seen or recognized by others hurt or inspire me?
How does being visible affect me or my life?
How does it feel when others actually see me?
How do these feelings show up in my body?
Where in my body do I feel the most unsettled or activated?
How do I respond to these feelings in my body?
Why do I respond in this way?
How do these feelings impact me?
Now understanding how it's impacting me,
Is this response healthy?
How am I masking my true self and nature to avoid visibility?
How have I restricted or limited myself because of these fears?
How have I made myself small because of these fears?
How have I silenced myself because of these fears?
Why do I fear recognition?
Why do I fear taking up space?
Why do I fear being seen for who I am?
Where do these fears stem from?
Is there something to be learned by allowing myself to be seen?
What insight can I gain from allowing myself to be seen?
Does the way I want to be seen differ from how others currently see me?
Connecting with myself,
I want to be seen as,
I want to be recognized for,
I want to make my presence known in the following ways.
I want to free myself from control,
From my social wounds,
From my relational wounds.
In the fear of being judged by,
I will make myself more visible by,
I will free myself from my social traumas in the following ways.
That is it for today's episode.
Here's to choosing you beloved.
Here's to working on yourself and your healing.
Thank you so much for allowing us to be on this journey with you.
Please take a breather and know that this episode will be here whenever you need it.
Thank you so much for being here.
Namaste Beloved.
