Title: Core Issues
Post by: osamipo on January 07, 2013
Hello and best wishes to all in 2013,

Brief background before getting into the "problem". My main fears are centered around social situations, assertiveness and intimacy. I work on myself several years using various tools including meditation, breathwork and yoga. I would say i made some but no real progress.

From time to time i tend to become overwhelmed by what is, i believe, one of my "core issues".  That is feeling of loneliness, despair, entrapment, isolation and hopelessness. I feel it fairly rare and almost never during my sessions. I tend to get in touch with it mostly in the middle of night when i awake with it and mostly it is connected with some kind of separation i am going trough in that period (i travel a lot, and am away from my family and friends most of the time). 

Please give me some suggestions/guidelines in how to work with it. I believe, like you stated in your wonderful book, that getting in touch with core feelings is a sign of progress and that is opportunity for transformation. The thing is that this issues arise very rarely so should i do my work regularly waiting core feelings to arise (i worked years and they were very seldom) or should i pursue them more actively?

Many thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex. I realize this is an older post but I wanted to respond as I came across one of my core issues after listening to John's first CD. Had a lot of anxiety like a flash back of something that happened back in September. John suggested I try & find the core issue or I could just work on feeling my anxiety. I found today after CD was just finishing that I'm very afraid of rejection. Idk if you have the cds but they are very effective! If your having problems try & focus on your feelings & stay with them to see if you can go deeper with a core issue. Just feel the core issue. I worked with the anxiety then the issue was revealed. It seemed so difficult at first when John suggested it. You know the core issue so try & focus on how that core issue makes you feel. Hope this helps :)
