Deeper
Waters
Diving into Shadow to Liberate Light in You and Humanity
These are some of the signs that there is something inside that wants to be faced, head on.
In this reality of COVID and the nationwide (also Global) uprisings around social and racial justice, every unhealed trauma and unwholesome belief is being amplified.
How will we meet this reckoning so that we’re not crushed by it?
Step 1) We must recognize it.
Step 2) We have to do the work to heal it.
Unfortunately, when we only get as far as recognizing without doing the work for healing, we short circuit and reinforce the harmful patterns that have gotten us here in the first place.
Here’s the problem: our conditioning would tell us that something outside of us is causing you to feel this way. (If they would just finish the damn vaccine! If they would just let the kids go back to school – or not have school go back. If the police would just get some damn training. If my boss would just stop bothering me. If my friends would just include me.)
elves…and we’re in a perpetual state of waiting for X (enough money saved, the right job, the right business idea, our significant other to do what he/she needs to do, the kids to go school, the kids to go off to college, etc.).
It’s no wonder we’re in a constant state of fight, flight, freeze, appease (and disappointment)!
Deeper Waters is a group coaching experience to support you in the healing process.
I’m taking what I’ve learned in my personal experience and applying a structure I’ve created to do this work from a whole person perspective. Deeper Waters is a sacred space where you can be held as you dive into the healing your soul is calling you to.
I want you to feel freedom from the constant critic inside. Clarity – which starts as a whisper but grows as you listen and follow its direction, giving you more energy, synchronicity, and a deep feeling of wellness (both within you and about the world).
This is more important now than ever because of the pressure cooker we are in (and are likely to be in for the foreseeable future).
About Andrea
Creator of Deeper Waters
I’m a Soul Coach and Speaker sparking transformation using my Alchemy Method. I teach high achieving leaders to become intentional and confident so they get to know themselves deeper through the 7 Alchemy Elements and their Human Design. This process provides incredible clarity and loosens the chains of toxic capitalism, white supremacy, and the patriarchy so that you can BE your true self confidently and step into your your unique ability to help create the world we all want to thrive in!
I can’t wait to dive deep with you!
Here are some of the ways our conditioning can show up:
- Living on the hamster wheel of our finances. Alternating panic and desperation. Anxiety. Embarrassment. Never feeling like you’ve “saved enough”, questioning every purchase, analysis paralysis. Splurging on your kids, your spouse, your friends, but when it comes to something you need – it’s clearance rack or it can wait.
- Finding yourself in cycles of numbing out. Scrolling. Mindless activities. Packing your schedule full of demands because the sense of panic creeps in when you are not running at full speed. Never allowing yourself to experience the full arc of emotions because it doesn’t feel safe to actually go there.
- Feeling alone, lonely, or disconnected from nourishing relationships. If you don’t do that specific thing, it won’t happen…the pressure is on you. Feeling anonymous – not seen, or seen but not heard. Struggling to feel fulfilled in a romantic relationship, or feeling like you can’t find “the one”. Misunderstood. An outcast.
- Forgetting how to have fun, or that fun is even an option. Feeling like work is a means to an end. Believing things like “this is a business decision, it’s not personal”. Being constantly “on”.
- Health issues, especially chronic ones. Sleep disruption, not feeling rested, even after 9 hours of sleep. Fixation on weight loss, a specific “number” – i.e. weight, BMI, etc. Infertility. Injury prone, repeated or many injuries. Constant dieting.
- Uninterested in anything. Learning is a slog. Procrastination. Obsession, you can’t turn social media or the news off. Overstimulation, not being able to disconnect.
- Loss of a sense of hope. Feeling like it’s all up to you. A constant state of being under pressure to be perfect. Feeling you only merit X if you measure up to some “standard”.
“If you have come here to help me, you are wasting your time.
But if you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together.”
– Lilla Watson
A moment of truth: All of these issues have the same root! I know, you’re thinking no way. How is that possible? Stay with me…
Our conditioning also tells us we can’t do this work for ourselves.
In our effort to “move on” from traumatic experiences, we have really just shoved them in the junk drawer in our body, mind, heart. We all have a junk drawer. What’s worse, we thought by moving on we just left that stuff behind – so now it’s a backseat driver, taking hold of the steering wheel when you least expect it. When you’re tired, when you’re stressed, when you’re what my husband and I call “low on resources”. (Take COVID for example – the battery is on RED all. the. time.) Now imagine that this is done over many lifetimes, and the junk drawer is cellular memory passed down in our genes (epigenetics).
YES. Now you are starting to get it.
So, not only are we feeling like crap, we take action from that feeling which causes harm when that’s the last thing we want to do. We find ourselves in fights online, and driving down the street. We are seeing the actions we take and relationships we have do not align with what we really care about (Black Lives Matter, for example). The ONLY sustainable solution is to go inside and understand, heal, and learn to love the jagged edges and patchwork quilt of trauma that we each are on the inside.
The only way to reconnect your battery to the power source is to go deep into the conditioning we have undergone – starting with our own lifetime, and then following that thread through our lineage. Conditioning from Corporate/Capitalism (which I consider the new Colonialism); conditioning from our Patriarchal Society (that is damaging for cis gender men, cis women, in addition to any non-conforming gender or sexuality); conditioning from our education system which has trained us to be cogs instead of whole humans (I mean – we weren’t even trusted to go to the freakin bathroom!); conditioning from our religious background.
There’s a reason they say when you heal trauma, you heal it for 7 generations forward and backwards. This is a life’s work people!!
I have been at this consciously for over 25 years, and I have yet to run out of levels of healing that my soul is calling me to. It has also yet to be anything but fulfilling, life giving, and a source of deep hope for me…while incredibly challenging.
As soon as we can realize that this conditioning is 1) real, 2) not our fault, and 3) (most important) ours to HEAL – an opportunity for transformation occurs. If you are here and what I’m describing still resonates, I guarantee you are looking at this opportunity for transformation square in the face.
