While some coping mechanisms are clearly "negative", because of their destructive qualities, there are many "positive" coping mechanisms that can also "fail" us at some point in time.
Classic examples of this are, someone who throws themselves into work, only to lose an important relationship, out of neglect.
Or, is sooooooo organized, and time managed, life becomes a drudgery, with no room for spur of the moment magic.
And the dependency on these coping mechanisms may only be revealed when there is a "threat" that they might need to "go".
A coping mechanism is often the best solution we come up with, in order to survive something that would be otherwise completely overwhelming, mentally, emotionally, or physically.
In the dearth of true healing, coping mechanisms can be the "crutch" that gets you to the metaphorical hospital.
And, based on other things that are occurring in your life, choosing or using a coping mechanism to "get by" may be EXACTLY what is needed, until a better opportunity presents itself to go into deeper healing.
It's what we use before we're ready to move BEYOND THE WOUND.
Learn what some of the classic coping mechanisms we use are.
Since we roll through childhood with very little understanding of how the events of our lives affect our psychological zeigeist, we have little resources to "heal our wounds" as kids.
Instead, in order to survive the often overwhelming experiences of childhood dysfunctions and trauma, we come up with coping mechanisms.
The primary difference between coping and healing, is that a coping mechanism is designed to CONTROL THE CHARGE of a wound, as opposed to DISPERSING THE CHARGE, which is what happens with healing.
In order to play the Game of Life here on earth, our powerful Master Creator Self, had to block out most of who we really are, in order to experience ourselves in that old. limited 3D reality. But the game has totally changed and our Master Consciousness are ready to embody right now.
As we are increasing our capacity to exist and manifest in a multi-dimensional reality, receiving regular attunements keeps you "updated", continuously, fine-tuning your experience with the current evolutionary shift on the planet.
It doesn't matter HOW amazing the software for the original Apple Macintosh computer was in 1984, it's totally obsolete now.
You wouldn't even think to put it on the latest Macbook Pro. It's more likely to harm than help your computer.
Tools, teachings and most importantly FREQUENCIES are rapidly evolving to fit the energetic climate of the planet.
Everything we experience comes through our physical senses, and how our brain interprets the frequencies of "reality", such as sound, light, temperature, etc, into a visceral experience.
When you start "raising your vibration", you are bringing in "higher" frequencies of stimulus, frequencies your physical brain may not YET be wired to interpret into a visceral experience.
When you are challenging the programming of the Egoic Mind, it's much gentler to entrain it to work with you, (remember it is still essentially part of your soul consciousness), rather than to "blast it into space" in one power shot.
A massive "release of all resistance", can just be too much energy to process in one go, and the reality, "before and after", too jarringly different for the Mind to handle.
That kind of drastic shift can activate all those intense survival emotions, and can leave you feeling crazy, emotionally charged, and volatile, as the Mind experiences such a shift as a THREAT to its "known zone".
This is a far cry from the inner peace people are often seeking through "spirituality".
