So many of us find our spiritual growth inhibited by the emotional snarls of our childhood.  We were taught in our childhood to handle our emotional self by using doubt, fear, guilt, denial, and projection. As we get older and try to function in our lives, we find these childhood experiences are blocks to our happiness. Learn how to use the tools of conscious awareness, unconditional love, and forgiveness as you revisit these blocked patterns, so that what held you back from joy will allow you to reconnect with your happier, lighter, more playful spiritual self.  Learning to see the gifts from the emotional patterns in our lives allows us to transcend childhood scars and ascend into our higher spiritual functioning.
