We all inherit stories from others. Whether that’s from our family lines, society or powerful others who’ve imprinted their own stories upon our beliefs and behaviours.
As ever, with all of this work, the opportunity is to see what we have inherited and bring our compassion and non-judgemental observation to it… in order to see what we wish to continue to carry with us, and what we wish to respectfully release and return to those from whom we inherited it.
As with all episodes of The Regroup Hour, this is about creating the opportunity to come closer into connection with ourselves. And seeing who we really are beneath the stories that we carry.
| 4’46” | The generations of our family line stretch back behind us and each generation influences the one that follows - and passes on stories and narratives to future generations
| 7’40” | Noticing what we’ve inherited is not about blaming the source
| 12’05” | Our cultural heritage also transfers stories that can deeply influence our beliefs
| 13’55” | This is not about landing on the ‘source’ and ‘having the answers’ - rather it’s about allowing this idea to percolate and seeing what it reveals to us over time
| 16’25” | Money is often riven with complexity and can be a place of tension - where conflicting inherited narratives collide, especially when we have different stories being handed down to us from the two parental lines
| 22’46” | What are stories about our sense of masculinity and femininity that we’ve learnt - and how do they influence us throughout our life?
| 23’40” | Inherited stories can be like the cuckoo in our nest of thoughts - so that as it grows it dominates our thoughts, to such an extent that it engulfs the thoughts we’ve created for ourselves. What are the cuckoos in your nest of thoughts?
| 25’55” | It is critical we honour the source of our thoughts - we can take a beautiful stance here, where we thank the source (even when it’s complex or challenging) and acknowledge that we are choosing to take what we need and leave what no longer serves us.
| 30’40” | There can be a generational healing aspect to this process of seeing our inherited narrative
