When Things Go Out of Hand

If we are not aware of what's going on when we are in these patterns or if we experience resistance to the healing process. Then we will go in and out of awareness when things remind us of a place we have been before and in no ways want to repeat.

I'm sure you have been there. Suddenly things go out of hand and you end on a roller coaster ride without realizing it. After a while you are back in your body and awareness with a feeling of, how did I end up here?

Everything is a little foggy and it's not clear to you how things could go this bad.
As you are trying to figure things out you realize that you have quite a lot of black holes in your memory. In many ways you don't have any clues as to what happened not to mention why.

If you are like most people you have taken on some dysfunctional patterns. Many adults are living their lives while carrying big or small traumas from their childhood.

Life and our bodies are constantly trying to heal the patterns by recreating situations from our childhood so we can let go of the things that no longer serve us.

If we are not aware of what's going on when we are in these patterns or if we experience resistance to the healing process. Then we will go in and out of awareness when things remind us of a place we have been before and in no ways want to repeat.

I love The Hangover trilogy. The movies are fun and things become very crazy Hollywood style, but that's not why I love the movies so much.

The Hangover is a great example of how accidents and upper limits set in when we are unable to feel ourselves and our emotions. We end up in chaotic and dramatic situations.
And that behavior always results in a massive hangover when we come to our senses.
