When we target the personality to change our lives, we immediately realize that the fear-based personality we had to develop in childhood stands in the way of our healing and transformation at a later stage in life. To heal your personality, to heal your life, you need to realize that only the truth will set you free. The truth of who you really are! When personality stands in the way of our joy, peace, and love, and then your career, relationships, and then your mental and emotional health, it is time to do the work. The Paradigm Shift work is how we move from this personality back to spirituality and start healing the disordered personality spiritually. It really is the science of finding your spiritual self.

When we can look inside ourselves without the need to defend, mask or hide things from ourselves – this is the spiritual path back to wellness. There is a spiritual solution to addictions, depression, the disordered personality and all manifestations of fear in your life. The fear we feel as children creates ego defence mechanisms. They defend us well, and then later in life they smother us to death. This necessitates a paradigm shift. Working the 10 pathways of the Paradigm shift process really is about the science of finding your spiritual self. Remove fear and only love remains. This is how Mark L Lockwood gets his exceptional results with transforming lives and getting ordinary people to do extraordinary things.

“Your personality represents the emotional and behavioural building blocks that shape how you think, feel and show up in the world”.

HEALING THE DISORDERED PERSONALITY

The word Persona means “outward or social personality”. It is a Jungian (coined by Carl Jung) psychology term, derived from Latin, where it originally referred to the theatrical masks worn by actors. Thus, a persona can be considered a mask, a role we play. Jung spoke of integrating the shadow, where we recognise that we all have a darker side to our personalities, but we embrace that side and integrate it.

We make this awakening paradigm shift, this very personal life transformation from the inside out. We wake up to the fact that the suffering and pain we see, feel and perpetuate begins outside of us. How we perceive the world is of utmost importance, because how we do that is how we tend to do everything else. So we start to wake up out of our own personal nightmares of fear and the very world around us begins to change. It is one of the most incredible things I have ever seen. The flowering of consciousness happens again and again and again and it is breathtaking to see.

When we treat the personality rather than getting under the masks to the real stuff we waste a ton of time and energy. It is like focusing on designing the best bandaid for the problem instead of getting straight to the wound underneath. Focus determines where energy goes. Jung called pscyhologists wound healers, and today we know wound healing in a mental health crisis is not doing its job to the degree it is required. Healing the disordered personality spiritually is no easy task. We have to go beyond depth psychology, beyond the defences, beyond the subconscious and under all of that heap we will find ourselves – healed, whole, connected and contributing. Healing the disordered personality spiritually is a science rather than any sensory experience that will allow our authenticity to set us free

When we treat the personality, rather than getting under the masks to the real stuff, we waste a ton of time and energy. It is like focusing on designing the best bandaid for the problem, instead of getting straight to the wound underneath. Focus determines where energy goes. To heal, we must lean our ladder against the right wall.

When the personality is no longer serving you but hindering you then you need a new program. When a computer program becomes redundant we need to get rid of it and replace it with a new one. It is the same with the programs we run in our bodies hearts and minds. Because the world is changing so quickly we need to keep up. There is no room left to operate from money mind without inevitably falling from the tree. If we fall behind we fall into survival or victim modes that naturally keep us suppressed and distressed. At some point we know we need to run a new program however it is easier said than done in understanding where to find that program and how to install it. The 10 step program to heal your life is that program – the Paradigm Process.

So, can you change your personality? Not only can you change it but it is a necessary part of life to get beyond it. To thine own self be true is rather an instruction more than a suggestion. Getting from the first half of your life where you have created neurosis, anxiety, codependence and stress based responses is just not who we are meant to be. We are divine human beings headed towards a spiritual experience. When we try and not have that experience we suffer. Defence is the first act of war and the war is on the self. This is the battlefield of the mind. We must indeed die once while we are still alive. We must get beyond defence and find connection, real love for self, God and other. We must indeed find authenticity and make a connection with our Sacred Selves. This is the journey and we’re all invited. we can check out anytime we want but we can never leave. The work wins in doing its task of setting you free from yourself – but only every time!
