I put too much time into fixing others and too little into fixing myself

Hello Aleš,

During the program, I recognized quite a few new things within myself and about myself.

Before the introductory lecture, I suddenly “fell ill”—I felt so weak that I can’t remember ever feeling that bad, as my subconscious reacted so intensely to the changes.

In the first weeks, I felt a terrible chill, cold, and realized how dreadful it feels to be so cold that it becomes a horror. After the exercises, I would take a hot shower just to stabilize myself. Toward the end, I started warming up gradually. During the standing exercises, I would really heat up and sometimes even sweat. A great experience, because I had never done standing exercises before—probably because I didn’t trust my legs or was afraid to stand on my own feet.

Along with the physical changes, new realizations came up—who I am, how much pressure I put on myself, how much guilt I carry within me. I also saw my surroundings more clearly—where and how I allow others to humiliate or abuse me—and I even voiced it to some people. At first, there was resistance, an attack back, but after a few days, when the other side finally understood what I had said, we talked it through and resolved the immediate discord. I felt how much more powerful my words became when backed by a physical response, and when I allowed myself to say negative things without fear, without closing down or letting the attacker confuse me.

I can tell when I am weak and I feel it—then I give myself more time to think and respond with quality later, because at that moment I’m not collected enough to defend myself properly. That’s when the ego kicks in, which is not yet trained for quality. I realized I put too much time into fixing others and too little into fixing myself, so I will gradually start changing that feeling that I am not important…

I noticed how much room I still have for progress. In the past, I would overlook things—for example, a tense chest muscle I couldn’t fully relax. It annoyed me, so I rushed through it and called it “resolved,” but it wasn’t really. Now I slowly invest attention into such parts of myself and make changes, going into the details.

The program definitely gave me new depths, new dimensions. I’ve learned a lot of new things about myself.

Thank you for an educational program!

Warm regards.
