We grow up in a society that doesn't educate or teach us how to develop and nourish our authentic self. Instead human’s beings are groomed to obey, follow and please a set of rules and ideologies that has nothing to do with who they really are, their authentic selves. Such experience it contracts and impairs the mental, emotional and physical development of our Inner Foundation, forcing us to separate ourselves from the natural development of our critical thinking, our emotional maturity and as well our own needs, passions and skills.
In young adulthood feelings emerging that something in life is missing are very common! We are missing OURSELVES, we may not know why and we don't know how to reclaim our authenticity and inner truth due to strong conditioning and belief systems received in early years from our social surrounds. Later in life the middle crisis happens! Just around the 40's when adults realize nothing makes sense anymore, although I now see this happening much sooner in individuals in their 20’s & 30’s!
Between these two different realities; living with and without the mask is where courage exists! The courage to stand up and say NO for the first time and use that courage to confront the culture, belief systems, status quo, family expectations, etc. To say No, I don’t want, like or think that. This is the start of the journey to reclaim what we have lost long time ago... our authentic self and inner truth. This courage is the turning point for a deep and profound life transformation that initiates a new path of self-discovery, personal development and self-actualization by understanding who we are without the mask.
Dare to stand up to live without the mask consciously is a powerful breakthrough to any man or woman as they learn to uncover their Inner authority, their Inner Foundation becomes stronger, grounded and truthful.
