In the Embrace of Fear: The Snake as a Symbol of Transformation 🐍

Every phobia is more than just fear. It’s also a doorway to deeper self-awareness. The fear of snakes, for instance, often stems from ancient instincts embedded in our subconscious. But what if we recognized this fear for what it truly represents?

The snake is a symbol of transformation and renewal. Shedding its skin, it reminds us that change is not only natural but essential. When we confront what terrifies us the most, we unlock a new layer of ourselves—like shedding an old, limiting version of who we are.

I personally experienced a fear of snakes, which seemed to mirror my inner struggles during a challenging period of adjusting to a new environment. Yet, as I worked through those life changes, my fear slowly dissolved. It became a symbol of how barriers—whether internal or external—can be overcome. That realization gave me a profound sense of strength.

The fear of snakes can serve as a metaphor for those parts of life we avoid or try to suppress. But hidden within those shadows is power. Ask yourself: What have I been avoiding? What am I putting off? Perhaps a phobia is an invitation to look within and discover a resource for growth.

Facing your fear isn’t about conquering it—it’s about understanding it. Each small step in this direction becomes a testament to your courage and inner strength. And one day, what once frightened you may transform into a symbol of your growth. 💪✨

📍Criticism involves identifying mistakes and analyzing them. In the context of professional relationships, criticism is generally accepted. However, in personal relationships, the issue becomes more contentious. Let’s be honest: constructive criticism is still criticism. Being pointed out as wrong, even with well-reasoned arguments, rarely makes anyone feel better. So, what are the motives behind our ‘well-meaning’ critics?

Mostly, criticism is a simple form of manipulation. For example, a wife might tell her husband that he is lazy, while comparing him to a highly productive and successful businessman. The goal is to push the husband towards greater productivity and achievements. Parents might criticize their children by calling them a ‘brainless failure’ in an attempt to ‘motivate’ them to achieve higher grades. This type of criticism and manipulation usually backfires, as it often leads to silent resistance and resentment rather than the desired outcomes.

2.Changing Another's Opinion for the "Better".This is still manipulation, but with different goals. The underlying message is that my opinion matters more than yours. This behavior violates personal boundaries and can be considered to be psychological abuse disguised as honesty. Have you ever heard the phrase "The truth doesn't hurt"? Well, what the critic sees as "truth" from another point of view it may look like an outright lie. Everyone has their own truth.

3.Self-Assertion and the Desire to Humiliate. Insecure people, often lacking wisdom, may assert themselves by demeaning those, who dependent on them—physically, financially, or emotionally. Whether it's parent, boss, or a more successful acquaintance, they project their inner frustrations on more vulnerable people, typically those who are kind-hearted and less likely to retaliate.

To summarize, I see this kind of criticism reflects a lack of love or acceptance for the person being criticized. It's discouraging as many of us were criticized by loved ones in our childhood, often under the pretext of good intentions. These critics weren't accepted by others, so they struggle to accept themselves, which perpetuates the cycle of criticism. People criticize out of anger, others because of personal problems, and some simply out of ignorance.

Loved ones shouldn't be criticized. They should be gently guided when they're ready to receive advice and direction.

If this post resonates with you, feel free to schedule a consultation through direct message to find ways to overcome external influence and criticism. Looking forward to meeting you!

I have created clear rules of work so that you and I can feel comfortable during the sessions. My principles are very simple, I stand for environmentally friendly work and quality. What does it mean?

🔹We only work with your feelings/thoughts/emotions. We are not trying to change anyone or look for ways to manipulate. Our sessions are only for YOU.

🔸In therapy we are as honest as possible and work together on your request. I will give you as much time as you need so that you can relax and trust me and I will do everything possible for this.

🔹If working together for any reason does not suit one of the parties, I always give recommendations and can redirect to another specialist. Moreover, I only take only those requests that I can help to resolve. There are no universal specialists, just like there is no one 100% effective method.

🔸I accept a limited number of clients per week in order to give maximum attention to each person. If you cancel your appointment at short notice, it will be extremely difficult for me to fill your slot, so I ask that you notify me of your cancellation or rescheduling within 12 hours of your scheduled appointment time. Therefore, prepayment is required. This is standard procedure to maintain mutual respect.

🔹When you come for a consultation later than the time agreed upon in advance, you have as much time as is left. For example, if you arrive 20 minutes late for an hour-long consultation, you have 40 minutes left. Extension of the consultation (which is not always possible) comes at an additional cost.

🔸I respect your boundaries and mine, and all the rules are created to ensure that therapy is as effective as possible. I am for real results.

Loneliness is a word that everyone knows. So many people being lonelly without even realizing that they are absorbed by this feeling running through their veins and blocking the taste of what life is, the opportunity to experience warm emotions and love for the world. What could it come from?
For those, who grew up in a family where parents didn't express their emotions, detachment becomes the norm. This is called the avoidant style of attachment. It is difficult for such people to express their feelings and emotions. Mostly they suppress them so badly that they do not understand anymore what they feel and what they want.
Avoidant people do not know how to build relationships. They run into a familiar void, being afraid of unfamiliar feelings. Seems scary to them the pain that a banal quarrel or misunderstanding can bring. At the beginning of a relationship, they more or less feel comfortable, but as soon as it comes to real affection and deep feelings, fear overcomes so much that running away seems like the best solution.
Are they that hopeless? Not at all. The first step is awareness and acceptance of this very loneliness. And then work on yourself and psychotherapy:) Life is in your hands! It is full of various feelings and emotions: love and loneliness, happiness and sadness, delight and disappointment. Once pain is experienced, acceptance and love become more valuable. Living a full life is experiencing a kaleidoscope of emotions.

P.S. To understand what type of attachment you have, I recommend taking the John Bowlby test. You can also easily find literature on this topic on the Internet.
For those who like my blog, I invite you to an initial consultation. Sign up on the website or direct message.

Japanese have such an art when they glue a broken cup together, filling the gaps with gold. It turns out to be a very beautiful cup, cracked, but it has such a special golden pattern. Also, trauma can become part of a person’s history, there is also such a phrase that "gold usually lies at the bottom of an injury". What used to be a deficit can start to work for a person, even bring money. If the trauma is healed, that is what happens.

About a year ago my hypnotherapist introduced me to the term Highly Sensitive Person. Its not about the empaths in a well knows sense. HSP is about innate trait of high sensitivity found in 1 out of 5 people. I’m grateful to Tina for becoming my guide to self-knowledge. Learning more about myself, I was also surprised that a large percentage of clients have this trait and unaware of it. Thus, I highly recommend you to read those books and watch movies 👇🏼
