Old Roots 2/18/2023

So many fears
Are rooted deep
Within our subconscious
And bodily cells
With no escape plan
In mind or
In hand.

So how do we break free
Of inherited fears
And reprogram our thoughts
To change the emotions
We currently feel
Locked inside?

Sit with fear
Sit with anger
Get to know them personally
And elevate the viewpoint
For clarity and
Understanding.

Consciously work
To repair and heal
Creating a
Clean and safe space
Just like a mechanic
Tuning an engine
Releasing
Unwanted fumes
And toxins.

Tis a daring task
Healing
Inherited
Family issues
So remember
Be loving and gentle
With past experiences
For this is where
We create our future
Potentials.
