Jane, high anxiety to thirst for life
Jane is a self-employed business owner living in her ex-marital home. Jane’s children are grown up and for eight years had an “almost” ex-husband. She put other’s needs ahead of her own for years at great cost.
Jane’s incredible journey from being a burnt-out, people-pleasing mother to an independent, strong, sovereign, business owner. From people pleasing and deep anxiety to stepping into her power and feeling like a whole person!
“I was experiencing deep-rooted uncomfortable feelings, discomfort and high anxiety when with my ex” Jane
Jane’s first session was one of many tears and a resignation that she would not be able to relieve herself from her problems. Jane was in a state of deep anxiety and detachment from herself.
The menopause had triggered so many changes in her that she just didn’t know where to turn, she knew she required support with inner-exploration and transformation. Jane had been receiving HRT to manage menopause ‘symptoms .
Jane was caught up in a cycle of over caring for other people and stretching herself to breaking point. She would overspend her energy caring for other people and meeting their needs then be left feeling fatigued, drawn-out, and anxious.
Jane found mechanisms for coping which included smoking cannabis, drinking alcohol, and getting into intimate relationships with people she knew were not healthy choices.
Jane often felt that she was a terrible mother. She had dedicated most of her life to raising her family (by this point they are grown-up adults) and meeting the needs of her estranged husband. She was trapped in an old “family contract”.
Jane experienced sadness, anxiety, and self-criticism around the actions she was taking as part of her coping mechanisms, she deeply desired to be free of these feelings.
“I struggled for many years with my problems. I had no tools or understanding of what was happening to me. Now I am practicing daily meditation and breathwork and can easily navigate through my feelings” Jane
On her unique path to healing Jane would need to connect with her inner-child, addict, and critic. Due to the menopause, all her old patterns and traumas were rising up from the shadows. It was time for Jane to spend time on herself, to be guilt and shame free, and to step into her power. Holistic Shadow Work and a personalised program empowered Jane to do that.
Once Jane began to acknowledge and understand her own needs, she was able to be guided to create new beliefs and embed them into her inner-world ready for action in the outer-world. Jane learnt how and why boundaries were important, and how they would hugely support her freedom.
Jane developed essential self-nurturing practices. She learnt to get in touch with her true- self through personalised breathwork and meditation.
“I now have more energy and a fantastic thirst for life. I have the skills to help me navigate through life” Jane
Jane finally put boundaries in place with her husband after being separated for eight years and instigatedthe divorce she so needed. She was able to express and communicate her truth and her needs with love and compassion and begin the process of reclaiming her sovereignty and feeling whole again.
Jane connected with her inner child to create deep healing within herself. She acknowledged and observedhow she had sabotaged herself during her life and forgave herself for this. She was able to stop relying on alcohol and cannabis to soothe her feelings by connecting into the root emotions that she was covering up with these substances and distracting relationships.
Jane is now in a conscious relationship with a new partner where she experiences embodied joy and can put boundaries in place. She can easily express her needs and maintain self-nurture without the fear of rejection. Jane’s other relationships are also healing and growing. She has been able to repair her relationships with her daughter and grow closer in ways she could only have dreamt of before.
Jane is running her own successful business and living the independent life she never even knew could exist!
“The tools, and practices I have learned have brought awareness and observation to my actions. Elios has really helped me to transform myself and my life.” Jane
