Inferiority Complex
November 18th, 2007 by Rose RosetreeBlog-Buddies, a recent client had an experience that you might find interesting. “Jenny” first had the intention that her session would “tell me if I am on the right path in life.” If you’ve read the part in my Cords book about “The Cosmic Excuse,” you know that I wasn’t going to let that stand as the only intent for the session!Soon Jenny was talking about her life, her future, her personal growth. She began to consider some practical ways that her life could improve. One interesting term that Jenny used in passing was her “inferiority complex.”
Eventually we decided to help her move forward by cutting the cord of attachment to Jenny’s ex-husband.
When describing the contents of the cord, I noted some rather abusive behavior of this husband towards her. Another part of the pattern involved Jenny’s feeling strangely good when he would mistreat her, then afterwards worrying that something truly horrible must be wrong with her. Otherwise, why would she would have this reaction?
Jenny appreciated all the validation of cord details. We discussed the fact that sometimes a life contract includes certain arrangements, like receiving abuse, as part of a karmic balancing the scales. This can cause it to feel strangely “good,” being the “victim” of abuse. But as soon as the karmic debt is paid, the person is able to leave the situation.
“Wow!” gasped my client (or the equivalent–since I was working with an interpreter, I can’t quote precisely). “One day I just had enough and decided to divorce him. Maybe that was when the karmic debt had finally been paid.
“All this time, I did feel bad about myself because I kind of enjoyed when he mistreated me. I’d been trying to understand what my deep problem could be.
“All this happened so long ago. I have been divorced for 30 years, and my ex-husband has been dead for a long time, too.”
The idea of balancing karma resonated deeply with Jenny. I invited my client to re-think her opinion that she had a deep-seated “complex” about inferiority. Without the cord energy replaying within her, 24/7, she would finally be able to let go of the disturbing events with her husband, and all the self-doubt they engendered.
When we got to Jenny’s “After picture” at the end of her session, Jenny’s aura no longer contained long-standing patterns of self-doubt.
I wonder how many “complexes” might be simpler than people assume. Any therapists out there who have been working with Energy Spirituality? How about you Blog-Buddies who have moved through longstanding patterns of limitation? Do any of you have stories or opinions related to this?
I recently decided that I no longer feel the need to medicate myself with food when I am feeling anxiety. Things had gotten to the point where if I was home and I felt just slight anxiety I would head for the refrigerator and start eating.
Stopping was usually very difficult, and then I could repeat the process two hours later. Thankfully I have the kind of metabolism where I cannot gain weight from eating, but this impulse to binge eat was very annoying, and I would end up eating a lot of unhealthy junk food.
Lately I have been able experience anxiety without feeling the need to eat. I even went into the kitchen a few times and looked inside the refrigerator and left without touching any food. This energy pattern had to have been coming from a cord of attachment because I tried very hard to stop using food to combat anxiety without any success.
I have also been biting my finger nails a lot less. This has been a lifelong habit which I have never been able to stop for more than two weeks. I now just need to make a point of filing my finger nails regularly because when they get any length to them they dig into my hands, and then I feel the need to bite them (something which I attribute to being a Highly Sensitive Person).
Yay for small miracles!
Ryan, these “small miracles” are a sign of more consciousness and less STUFF in your aura. Congratulations and thank you so much for sharing!
Ryan,
I’ve struggled w/ both annoying habits you reference in your posting. I’m waiting to find the cord to cut that will eliminate or at least attenuate these knee-jerk responses to stress, anxiety or other emotions.
Thanks for your posting!
