Do these situations sound familiar?
Busyness fills your days with activity. You’re always pushing to do more faster. You’re busy even in your dreams at night, continually working and doing and taking care. Who you are and what you’re worth is based on your accomplishments and the results you point to with pride. And the small, quiet voice that insists there’s something more, that this constant doing isn’t all there is, gets drowned out. Most of the time, anyway.
You’re drained, frozen inside, and frightened. You feel like you’re screaming, but no sound comes out. And no one around you notices anything unusual. Sometimes the tension winds you so tight you feel like every muscle, especially in your shoulders and gut, is about to snap and shatter.
You’ve had moments of being brilliantly in your center — perhaps listening to music, dancing, hearing the song of birds or of children playing, watching sunlight on water, creating something beautiful, making love. But those moments didn’t last long, and you assumed they were an illusion. The dullness that flows back after the brilliance fades is weighty and oppressive.
You’ve read about transformation and wonder what it really means. You doubt the stories because they make no sense to you — they sound like fairy tales. “Transformation” is incomprehensible, strange, not something that could happen to someone like you — and you doubt it really happens to anyone.
Sometimes you feel irrationally angry, furious for no apparent reason. It’s frightening, very scary, and so you push the rage away, blame it on hormones, and hurry to your next appointment, the next challenge, the next thing on your to-do list. But every now and then in the middle of the night, wide awake and dry-eyed in the dark, you wonder what the rage is really all about and where it’s coming from.
You take pride in caring and being compassionate and helpful. You know that sometimes you acquiesce a little too easily, you drop everything a little too quickly, and you compromise a little too much. But it’s easy for you, and they need you. Or at least, that’s what you tell yourself when you wonder just how much you’ve compromised your sense of self.
