I have my individual session today.. no doubt she'll have some ideas about what to do with it, and I'll bet I'll get some more EFT type stuff. Last week I got aromatherapy. Flaky as it sounds, the non-traditional stuff cheers me up more than hearing my endless talk. Of course I think it's all just placebo effect, but I'll take it anyway.
I'm excited about seeing this pattern, but also skeptical that it's real. After all, I've dated, I've had boyfriends, how can it be that I don't feel essentially desirable? Yet it's true. It's odd how the belief can persist in the face of evidence to the contrary. I can actually think, yeah, that guy wanted me, and that one, and they were pretty good guys, but still I'm not desirable. It's not rational. And if this belief is protecting me from hurt.. well doesn't it see that it's hurting me more than protecting me? That it's time to stop being sooo ultra-cautious? It's time to think well, maybe I'm desirable to some people.
