Authenticity

Authenticity is coming from what is true in your experience directly without analysis, without the shame, interpretation, that then shouts ‘listen to the shadow’, or mentalizes an emotion. Authenticity is about all your feelings, being with them, expressing them, it is also about true esteem. True esteem is how you really feel about yourself in this moment ‘right now I feel like crap about myself, I feel like I have no value. . .’ OK, that is honest; that is authentic. If you would say instead ‘I am confident and in control. . .’ others will sniff out a lie that you are not authentic anymore, and you are also not protected. All teachings at Embracing Shamanism come from authentic teachers from their own direct experience. Learn more here.
