This great woman
Is affectionately called by the media all over the world
The closest person to a saint.
The sufferings she once suffered turned into the grace of life, which not only nourished her life, but also brought love and hope to millions of people in Qian Qian.
Today, I want to pay tribute to this legendary great woman, and to this woman who promotes the concept of global physical and mental rehabilitation and health!
The story of Louise Hay
Out of the traumatic life:
"We are all the same. Everyone can live a completely different self. "
Louise Hay said, "My parents divorced when I was 1 half a year old. I don't remember how bad the situation was. The only terrible thing I remember is that my mother, who has been doing housework at home, wanted to go out to work and put me in someone else's house.
I cried for three weeks in a row, and the people who looked after me were at a loss about my crying, so my mother had to take me home and make other arrangements.
I still admire her to this day. As a single mother, she keeps everything in order. But later, I didn't get as much care as before. "
I was raped after my mother's second marriage.
My mother is married again. I have never been sure whether she remarried because she loved my stepfather or because she wanted to find a home for both of us.
This man grew up in Europe. He is cruel by nature and has never learned how to deal with family relations. My mother is pregnant with my sister. At this time, the Great Depression of the 1930s suddenly came, and our family fell into a tyrannical swamp, and the whole family was in a very bad situation.
I was only five years old. A neighbor, I remember he was an old drunk, and he raped me.
I clearly remember the process of the doctor's physical examination and the court trial I attended as the main witness-that person was sentenced to 15 years in prison.
I always hear people say, "It's all your fault." For many years to come, I was afraid of that man. When he got out of prison, he would get back at me because I sent him to prison.
I was abused in my childhood and decided that I didn't deserve to be loved.
For most of my childhood, I endured physical and sexual abuse, plus heavy physical labor.
My self-image is getting worse and worse. I don't like myself and I don't love myself.
When I was in the fourth grade, there was a school party and there were several big cakes for everyone to share. Except me, most students in this school come from comfortable middle-class families.
My clothes are worn out, my hairstyle is ridiculous, I am wearing a pair of late black shoes, and I smell of garlic. There will never be a cake in our house, so we can't afford it.
My neighbor's aunt gives me 10 cents every week, and I can get 1 dollar for my birthday and Christmas. That 10 cent is included in the family budget, and that 1 dollar is used to buy my underwear in a dime store.
Therefore, on the day of the school party, there were many cakes there, and they were all cutting cakes. Some of them can eat two or three cakes almost every day. When the teacher finally came to see me (I chose the last stop), the cake was gone. There is nothing left.
I can see clearly now that I "have been convinced of this creed":
I'm worthless. I don't deserve anything.
The internal drive made me stand at the end, and I couldn't get the cake.
This is my model. They are just a reflection of my beliefs.
15 years old fled from home and school.
/kloc-when I was 0/5 years old, I couldn't stand sexual harassment anymore and ran away from home and school. I got a job as a banquet waiter, which was much easier than doing heavy manual work at home.
Because of my extreme desire for love and humble self-awareness, I am willing to dedicate myself to anyone who is good to me; Shortly after my 16 birthday, I gave birth to a baby girl.
I felt unable to raise her when I was pregnant, but I was able to find a good and loving family for her.
I found a childless couple who are eager to have children. I stayed in their house for the last four weeks before giving birth.
In this case, I didn't experience any joy as a mother, only loss, guilt and shame. I left her five days after she was born. I went home and told my mother what had happened to me. "You won't go on like this. I want to get you out of here. " She left her 10-year-old sister and her father with me. My sister has always been a little baby loved by my stepfather. Mother found a job as a waiter in a small hotel and then arranged a free and comfortable apartment for her. I feel that I have done my duty.
I went to Chicago with a girlfriend-I haven't been back to my hometown for more than 30 years. In those days before, the trauma and violence I experienced as a child made me feel how worthless I was for a long time. The men I attract are those who abuse me and often beat me.
If I spend the rest of my life cursing men, then I may get the same experience again.
But through positive work experience, my self-esteem gradually grew, and those men gradually left my life. What attracted them was my own belief: "I only have the value of being abused."
I'm not excusing their behavior,
If I don't have this mode of thinking,
They won't be attracted to me.
at present
A man who often hits women,
You may not even know it,
I exist.
Our models are no longer attracted to each other.
After working as a service worker in Chicago for several years, I went to new york and was lucky to become a high fashion model. Even as a model of a famous fashion designer, I still can't establish my sense of self-worth.
These jobs only made me discover more shortcomings of myself-I refused to know my beauty.
Marry an English gentleman in Chicago
I have worked in fashion for many years. I met a charming and well-educated English gentleman and married him. We traveled around the world, met members of the royal family and were even invited to the White House for dinner.
Although I am a model and have a husband who can make me proud, my self-esteem is still very low, and this situation did not begin to change until I engaged in psychological research.
Married 14 years, just when I began to believe that good things can last, one day my husband announced that he was going to marry another person.
Yes, I'm going to collapse.
Contact psychological rehabilitation and meditation in church
By chance, I visited a church in new york. Their ideas are new to me, so I pay great attention to what they say. I not only went to the church, but also took their classes.
The beautiful fashion world has lost its appeal to me. How many years left in my life can make me focus on removing excess fat and keeping the shape of my eyebrows.
I haven't learned anything since I dropped out of high school. Now I am a hungry student, wolfing down all the knowledge about psychological rehabilitation I can catch.
That church has become my new home. Although my daily life is no different from the past, this course takes up more and more time.
Three years later, I applied to become a qualified consultant certified by the church. I passed the exam, which is the starting point of my consulting career.
This is just a small beginning: I became a meditator.
My church only has a one-year meditation class, so I decided to do something special for myself. I spent six months at MIU University in Iowa.
After returning to new york, I started a new life. Soon I started my "miracle training program". I take an active part in church social activities. I began to speak at their afternoon meeting and made an appointment with some clients.
This soon became my full-time job. In my spare time, with the encouragement of others, I began to write the book "Heal Your Body". The book simply lists the physical diseases caused by mental factors. I began to lecture on tour and run small training courses.
Then, one day I was diagnosed with cancer.
Suffering from cancer, I began to study physical therapy.
Based on my background of being raped when I was 5 years old and my experience of abortion in adolescence, there is no doubt that I have reproductive system cancer.
Like others, I was in a state of extreme panic when they were told that they had cancer. But because of my psychological counseling, I know that mental rehabilitation is effective, and I got a chance to personally verify it.
After all, I wrote a book about thinking patterns. I know that cancer is caused by long-term unresolved grievances buried deep in my heart, which leads to cancer cells gradually devouring the body.
I have been reluctant to give up my anger and resentment towards "them" in my childhood. There is no extra time to waste, I have a lot of work to do.
The word "incurable disease" is very terrible to many people.
I had a cancer resection, but it didn't change the thinking mode that caused cancer. Later, the doctor told me that they must continue to cut my body until everything that can be cut is cut.
If the cancer tissue is removed by surgery,
Then remove the root cause of cancer from the mind,
Then the cancer will not recur.
If cancer or other diseases recur,
This shows that the old ideas
It hasn't been completely erased from my mind,
The patient's mind has not changed.
People always get the same disease,
Just in different parts of the body.
I believe that if I can get rid of the thoughts and beliefs that lead to cancer, I can be cured.
So, I signed a contract with time. I told the doctor that I had no money for surgery, and the doctor reluctantly gave me three months, and I was immediately responsible for my recovery. I studied all kinds of methods that might help me recover.
I went to several health food stores and bought many books about cancer. I went to the library and read a lot of books.
I read the book on foot reflexology and want to find a pedicure. I attended a lecture. I used to sit in the front row, but this time I sat in the last row.
Less than 1 minute, a man sat next to me-guess what happened? He is a pedicure and can go to the patient's home for treatment. He came to my house three times a week for two months, which helped me a lot in my recovery.
I know I must love myself more than before. I seldom expressed my love when I was a child, and all the people made me feel that I was not a good boy.
I treat myself the way they treat me: picky and blaming. Make this attitude your second nature.
In the work of the church, I gradually realized:
I should love myself and recognize myself.
This is not only feasible for me,
This is very important.
Although I'm still stalling—
Just like you always say that you will start dieting tomorrow.
But I have no time to delay any longer.
At the beginning,
It's hard for me to stand in front of the mirror and say to myself:
"Louise, I love you. I really love you. "
however
At my insistence,
I found that,
In many cases
I don't blame myself as I used to,
These are all exercises at work.
I have made progress.
I know I have to get rid of the resentment pattern accumulated since I was a child. Abandoning blame is my first task.
Be aware of the influence of the mind on the body
Yes, I suffered a lot in my childhood-mentally, physically and sexually. But that was many years ago and can't be used as an excuse for the way I treat myself now.
Because I don't forgive myself, I devour my body with resentment and toxic energy.
It's time to get out of the nightmare of the past. I should begin to understand that that experience will make me treat a child in the same way:
With the help of clinical medical experts, I expressed my long-hidden anger by hitting my pillow and shouting. This makes me feel much more relaxed.
Then I pieced together what my parents told me about my childhood, and I began to see the whole picture of their lives. I understand them more and more.
From an adult's point of view, I began to pity their pain, and my resentment gradually melted.
In addition, I found a nutritionist to help me remove the toxins accumulated in my body after eating junk food for several years.
I see, it is those junk foods that breed toxins in my body. I also know that it is those rubbish thoughts that have poisoned my mind. I strictly control my diet and only eat a lot of green vegetables.
I didn't have another operation-because of all the physical and psychological cleaning, I was able to get the consent of medical experts six months after I was diagnosed with cancer-I showed no signs of cancer!
Now, I know from personal experience:
Diseases can be cured,
If we are willing to change our way of thinking,
Belief mode and action mode!
Sometimes, those very unlucky things in our lives will turn into good things. As the saying goes, "A blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise."
I have learned a lot from my own experience, and I measure my life in a new way. I began to pay attention to what was most important to me.
Go to your family again.
Finally, I decided to leave new york, where the environment was very poor and unhealthy. I closed the clinic, took the train to California, and decided to make Los Angeles my first stop.
Although this is the place where I was born many years ago, I don't know anyone except my mother and sister.
Family members are neither close nor honest, but I was surprised and sad to hear that my mother was blind a few years ago, but no one else told me. My sister was too busy to see me, so I went with her.
I started to build my new life. My little book "Heal Your Body" has opened many doors for me.
One night, I got a call from my sister, which was the first time we talked on the phone in two years. She told me that our mother, who is now 90 years old, is blind and can hardly hear. Recently, she hurt her back because of a fall and can't move.
My mother used to be a strong and independent woman, but now she has become a helpless child.
She hurt her back and opened the mysterious wall around her sister. Then we all started dating.
I found that my sister could not sit and walk normally because of her severe back pain. She endured the pain silently. Although she seems to have a bad appetite, her husband doesn't know that she is ill.
After staying in the hospital for a month, my mother plans to go home. But because she can't take care of herself, I took her to live with me.
Sometimes I have to go out. I can't leave her alone, but I have to go on a business trip, so I pray, "God, please take care of this." Before I leave, I must find the right person to help us. "
On Thursday, the right person really "appeared" and solved the problem between my mother and me.
This incident further strengthened my basic belief: "I will know that God will give me everything I need and everything I want at the right time."
I realized that the opportunity to sum up experience came again.
This is a good opportunity to clean up the shadow of childhood.
Reconciliation with mother
My mother failed to protect me when I was a child. But now I can and am willing to take care of her. My mother and sister are both new challenges for me.
Helping my sister is one of the challenges. My sister told me that after I saved my mother many years ago, my stepfather vented his anger and pain on her, and it was her turn to be cruel.
I realized that my sister's fears and nervousness were magnified into physical problems, and no one could help her except her inner beliefs.
I don't want to be my sister's savior, but I am willing to provide her with life choices.
Gradually, we have opened up a new road to recovery, and we are moving forward step by step in a safe atmosphere. On the other hand, my mother's reaction is also very good. She tries to exercise four times a day. Her body becomes stronger and more flexible.
Mother and I began to do things in ways we had never done before.
Sit down and talk.
We have a new understanding of each other.
today，
When we cry, laugh and hug,
We all feel free.
My mother died peacefully on 1985.
I miss her and love her.
We will be together forever in the end,
Now we are all free.
So, dear, if you are now: with the shadow and trauma of your past family; If you are suffering from anxiety, pain, entanglement and torture; If you are unhappy-I want to tell you: everything can be better-as long as you want.
Yes, as long as you are willing, you can use a soft and tough heart to open the past haze, heal yourself, embrace yourself, throw away those restrictions, cruelty and pain, and start a new life.
As long as you are alive, it is never too late to start. A new life, a brand-new everything is waiting for you at your fingertips, waiting for you to transform the haze and live a new life!
Bless you and bless every soul in the world who longs for freedom and happiness. Wish you all the best.
On August 30,
This great woman left our world.
But this power of healing and rebirth,
Will stay in this world forever,
Provide nutrition and strength for all.
Pay tribute to this great and legendary woman!
Pay tribute to our hearts!
Bless everyone!
