31 Aug Why Evolve Psychology? A Holistic Alternative to Therapy

If you find yourself wondering why you feel stuck with standard counselling, you are not alone. The simple difference between standard clinical psychology and Evolved Psychology is this: The spiritual pathology that sits before me is more relevant than anything that has gone before.

If you are looking for a holistic alternative to therapy, you must first understand that the symptoms, stories, and diagnoses we learn to embody and climb inside are not actually healing. Nor are they really Truth Telling; they are merely perceptions.

No matter what has happened, where you are from, what your parents did or didn’t do, or how you have or haven’t related – here you are. You have arrived here in this sometimes frail and frazzled moment because you have suffered enough and are ready to change. Change means a shift or movement more toward who you are and who you wish to be authentically.

I don’t care about anything else.

That’s not true, I do care. I care so deeply. However, I don’t mind. The particle of life that sits before me has layers and filters they have viewed their life through, and as a result, created their “self.”

Moving Beyond the Diagnosis

Evolved psychology does not create filters, as this method is fraught with danger. Everyone is scared that being exactly as they are is just not good enough. Standard psychology searches for what is wrong.

The only reason I allow “psych” into the equation at all is because at its roots, in its purest place, psyche means Breath or principle of life, Soul, and logia means speech, words, or reason.

Basic psychology today is concerned with the science or study of the mind and our resulting behaviour. The particle of Life our mind is trying to wrap its head quite literally around has no bearing. As I studied psychology both in college and university, I was seen to be a trouble-maker, a rule-breaker, a challenger, and ultimately a defector.

Why Talk Therapy Isn’t Working

Our current health care system does not provide health nor care for the one place requiring it: the Soul.

This Soul sends messages every minute of every day. It constructs stories and endeavours to remove filters we fight so desperately to keep in place to disconnect and blind us.

So that said, at 55 I remain more determined than ever. Psyches and Souls are not disordered, nor are they diagnosable mental illnesses. They are breaking-down beings endeavouring to break through.

In their journey to be whole, they require little. It is not a complex, nor is it complex. They require a deep residing connection to their selves; their already perfected chord of the universe. At their core, they each already possess a Purpose and Passion, a contribution to make, and their reason for being that completes them.

Most hunger for intimacy, and the opportunity to share and show the internal particle of truth, a diamond of perfection.

The Truth About Our Origins

Each one of us is born through a mother as a result of a relationship with our father. Be it good or bad, lasting or not, we came because we already are a being. Our family of origin only teaches us about who we are; it does not create us nor mould us like a piece of plasticine.

You already are. Your life is Divinely Designed to simply show you that. We incarnate to the relationship which resonates at the same frequency as the spark we already are. We incarnate through these portals or vessels to awaken our nature, our essence, our gift.

Are you beginning to see why my lecturers shook their collective heads and my contemporaries urged me to roll with the system with all its flagrant flaws?

And one thing I also knew for sure, yet was not able to voice, was this imperative truth: Upon our first Breath, our last one is decided. Upon incarnation, our dis-incarnation is assured. Of course, you answer, however, here is the kicker: No matter what you do, feel, or eat, you will die at exactly that same moment.

You are, you have, an allocation – an allotted quantity – of Money, Time, Energy, and Love. And it will find you, no matter what.

Embracing a Self-Guided Approach

For some clients, this is a relief; for others who need control over outcomes, it is impossible to accept. This sometimes difficult-to-dawn realisation is why I sit with those who embrace or remember that they are simply spirit, having a human experience. This truth changes everything in my practice, in my world, and in the world in general.

Our perception of birth and birthing changes as we realise the baby chooses not only its parents, place, and position in the family; it’s aligned with what it needs to heal. So the child is not like the parent; in fact, the parent is like the child. They have the opportunity or challenge of being the new, improved, evolved version, so to speak.

Everything on some level is a choice. Right from conception, when the energy resonating through some body most closely aligns with you. The frequencies match; the dance of Life Force continues evolving.

The First Truth Tellers

I remember the blame during the eighties and nineties placed upon the parents. I simmered silently as we collectively abdicated our responsibility to be who we are and sledged it totally at the vessels who ushered us in. The character traits of these folk are our first Truth Tellers.

Psychology 101: One sentence about your mother, one about your father, and then a result; one weaving them together.

Mine: My mother was extremely independent, a trailblazer, a server, a martyr, and a chronic perfectionist. My father had presence, he was a compulsive liar, extremely stubborn, and was happiest alone.

I learned to Let Go from my mother: not by watching her do it, but only surviving by learning how to do it. From my father, my Truth Telling compulsion began or awakened. They evolved me as I evolved them. Just as you are your evolved parents. If you so choose to wake up to that.

Finding Your Way Back to Yourself

So, I would never criticise or judge the talk around, label, diagnose, and strategise modality – however, I cannot be a part of it. It serves many to simply open up and be heard. Will it evolve them? I don’t believe so. It is an excellent first step, if you don’t begin and end there. Unless, of course, that is where you wish to begin and end.

To evolve holds secrets, meanings, and a depth of soul kisses, unfathomable unless you’ve felt it. Feeling that G.O.D. particle of yourself is the healing.

It’s that simple. Your hypnotic place is home; it is only there we truly align, safely and securely. Everyone goes to the same place. Their place in their particle of the whole.

Your opportunities, challenges, and choices deliver you to your preordained end. The physical truth of this rests patiently and purposefully in your DNA.
Your nature chooses what to do with that.
You move toward Soul Settling, and feel Faith.
You move away from it, you feel fear.
You feel nothing, you heal nothing.
You medicate, you get a break, however, you’re suspended, marking time, treading water. And that’s okay too, as long as you acknowledge and take responsibility for that choice.

There are no mistakes, nothing is wrong with you. You can call it whatever you like; the truth remains. You are simply Energy working your stuff out through a body so you can feel, explore, experience, and express. Your mind then processes these feelings and you choose: either you do or don’t tell yourself the truth of who you are and wish to be.

We Let Go of all we are not.
We Tune In to all we are.
We practice being that.
And finally, we learn to remain connected.

Then and only then is our Soul our pilot.

Always know your soul holds every answer. Feelings are the language of the Soul and are linked to an inner knowing that this is true.
Never deny your feelings.
They say the truth will set you free, and they’re right.
