Facing, Accepting, Choosing, Taking action
I welcome you to stand or sit as you practice this tool with me. I found it to be a source of inspiration and deep understanding for my progression to learning and growing past my patterns and old stories. ….On to weaving and playing with new stories and visions of what is and what I want to be.
I have had such a great time learning this the past year! Mind you, I had to first learn and osmosis Facing and Accepting .. and then returning to Facing as more issues were coming up as I looked into myself. Perhaps you will find yourself doing the same and if so that’s perfectly fine and beautiful. Let’s begin!
-Facing your issue (picking a space to place the issue in the area) and facing it and turning away at intervals; finally fully facing it when YOU are ready and asking .. “Hmmm…What about this question/issue have I not fully faced directly?”
-Accepting is taking a moment to relax your breath and as you breath slows and opens ask, “Hmmm…What’s the hardest thing for me to accept about this?” Continue by holding out one hand and say “I want to accept this” and holding out your other hand saying, “hmmm…and I don’t want to” or “I feel scared.” Continue going back and forth making sure you say the “and…” Notice what shifts.
-Choosing is continuing to make pleasurable “Hmmmm…” with your outbreaths and creating small, friendly movements with your hands, arms, and whole body as you ask, “Hmmm..What do I really want?” Emphasize different words, use different tones of voice as you ask. When you feel an increase in ease and energy, you are ready for the next step.
-Taking action is letting yourself Hmmm easily as you move around the space and ask, “Hmmm…What is one simple, pleasurable action step that will lead me to what I really want?” Jot down that answer and …
~what is your action?
~when do you agree to do this?
~APPRECIATE yourself for doing F.A.C.T.

Thanks for sharing this detailed practice ✨🙌🏻
I like the idea of approaching issues step-by-step, giving yourself space to reflect instead of rushing through it.
It’s a valuable reminder to stay present while working through challenges.
I love how you walked through the F.A.C.T practice! It's very simple, yet can start to connect us to the true "why" underneath it all. I also appreciate how approachable it is (we all can start from where we are).
Looking forward to diving more into your work! ✨
