I don't react to professional rejection much. But romantic rejection feels like I'm literally going to die.. I know I'm not, but it feels that painful and horrible.
@@KarenBarno past life and current life abandonment? I found this vid searching for shadow work for rejection. Romantic rejection feels like proof of the sense of unworthiness and unlovability I struggle with. I will go to great lengths to avoid appearing desperate and would rather opt out the game than experience romantic rejection. If I knew why, I wouldn't need the shadow work. 🥴
Begin the healing process by going back to your earliest memory of being rejected. Go back as far as you can to trace its root. Where it started. Let me know what you see.
I am going through this now. I thought I was healed for this but since I got into a relationship it is coming back up. I am continuing to do my shadow work. I want to be healed. How do you suggest healing the rejection shadow.
What do you tell yourself about rejection? Where is your first memory of being rejected? Go back and find that moment and what meaning did you give it?
Hi Karen, thank you for your work. I'm dealing with this now and as some people it's the romantic life that makes me panic with this fear, I become obsessed, can't stop thinking of why I'm being ignored/rejected. I know this comes from a childhood moment, where my first crush, when I was around 12, asked me to be his girlfriend and I went home, smiling ear to ear. Next day he told me it was just a joke and laughed at me when I started crying. I think I'm afraid of relieving this moment. Any recommendation on how to I overcome this fear?
Replay it in your mind but flip the script. Have you telling him you’re not interested in him and laugh at him. Keep replaying this and your brain will begin to believe it and erase the other story. Your mind believes what you tell it. This will work but you must believe in the new version. Try it and let me know/
@@KarenBarnoI did follow your advice but not to the letter. I changed the story but I added my part, I still know that person, I know now that he wishes he could be with me even for just one night, I'm doing better each day and I know 'my product' is worth it. So I'm telling myself that story. I go back and I tell myself that. I'm also writing about it, the way it feels to go through this, what I'm telling myself, etc. I actually realized that I wasn't rejected because I am only now accepting and showing every bit of myself. So only a piece of me was rejected, the whole never was, the whole is mine (for now, working on it). So it's like a piece of the puzzle being mad for not fitting 😅 I love analogies. Thank you again!
Ooh powerful! They could be rejecting themselves.😮

Why do you think you react like that?
