Reply To: Exercise 9: Adopt a Challenging Belief
Changing Beliefs 2
The emotions and beliefs I identified were:
1. I believe people’s fear has resulted in electing an authoritarian leader and that we are seeing a frequently repeated cycle in history.
2. I feel grief, powerlessness, hopelessness, resignation and anger
3. I would rather feel connected to my own power and hope and the willingness to do something in the face of the government that has been chosen.
4. My new belief is that I experience my own power and hope when I act from love and curiosity with everyone, those with whom I see eye to eye politically and those I do not.
