Bury the Old

Burial Exercise

Today we’re going to do something. We are going to bury the old and create something new. Isn’t it about time that you stop tricking your mind into believing you’re someone that you’re not? We’ve all created stories about ourselves at some point or another. From this point moving forward, you will no longer live the lies that you and others have convinced you of. I proclaim that part of your life over. It’s time to BURY the old identity that’s held you back for years. Something important to remember: the more you give in this exercise, the more you get so go all in!

Change Your Identity

“Your identity is your most valuable possession. Protect it.” —Elastigirl, The Incredibles

 

WHO AM I?

Ever ask yourself that question before?  Perhaps you’ve thought to yourself how nice it would be to be somebody else from time to time? Our identity is the image that we have of ourselves. This image is particularly influenced by parents, peers, and other role models.

Identity is generally thought of as our individual perceptions of our behavior, abilities, and unique characteristics. It is a mental picture of who you are as a person. For example, beliefs such as, “I am a good friend,” or, “I am the type of person who gets things done,” are part of an identity. Those of you that are struggling with self doubt, negative body image, and making your healthy a priority have identity reshaping work to do. It’s time to change your identity.
