EP12 - Guilt

Going through these questions I have learnt more about the guilt I feel for people, things and situations and how this affects my thoughts and behaviour. It has opened my eyes to the guilt and responsibilities I take on that don’t belong to me. It has started me on a process of beginning to recognise and identify what is, and is not, my responsibility; what I have been responsible for; how my feelings of guilt turn to shame and how damaging a negative emotion like guilt can be. Thinking through this subject has been painful but enlightening.

EP11 - Finances

The questions guide me through thinking over how I manage money, my financial priorities, financial security and control. It has opened my eyes to how I think and deal with financial matters, how much pressure I put on myself and how money anxiety, worry and fear affect me. But also pride and gratitude for what I’ve got - and now, a newfound awareness of behaviours that do, and do not, serve me.
