Embracing Love by Letting Go: Iyasu's Metaphysical Cleanse

                                    “Moonlight floods the whole sky

                                           from horizon to horizon;

                                      how much it can fill your room

                                          depends on its windows.”

                                                                                  —Rumi, The Essential Rumi

What is a Metaphysical Cleanse? Let’s start with defining the word “metaphysical”. Merriam-Webster defines it: “of, or relating to, things that are thought to exist but that cannot be seen.” This describes aspects of the human experience that we cannot see—for example, our feelings. We know anger, fears, and resentments exist but we cannot see them. Although they are not tangible we can sense them physically and, they can impact our lives on a daily basis; often in very destructive ways. Similar to the effect on our bodies when we carry excess weight, carrying around so-called “negative” feelings can make us feel lethargic, depressed, isolated, lonely, separated, upset, and unworthy.

                                Remember The Truth Of Who You Are

What causes human suffering? One common cause stems from the belief that we are unworthy and unlovable. This belief causes fear because if we are not enough and cannot be loved then most people conclude they will be alone and unhappy. Think about the effort and money we expend striving to be attractive enough, rich enough, and good enough—all to ensure we have happy and loving relationships, a fulfilling career, and a life worth living.

Capitalist societies strategically keep people insecure as a way to keep selling products and services. Family members (unconsciously) pass down unworthiness beliefs to control other family members, and avoid being honest with themselves about their own mental and emotional issues. People are not bad—they lead their lives based on misperceptions of the past, resulting in skewed perspectives of the present.

We were not created to suffer and lead disparaging lives! Embrace your birthright to live with joy and love—the life you truly desire.

How do we bridge the gap between feelings of lack to achieve self-actualization? Many books address this subject; yet somehow, you found your way to this one. Coincidence? I don’t think so. In Iyasu’s Metaphysical Cleanse, I focus on teaching you how to come back to your truth—the truth of who you are. I can tell you this right now: you are worthy just being you. Your life doesn’t look the way you desire because you have forgotten who you are—not because you are deficient in any way.

Shifting your self-perceptions and perspectives can change your entire life. How? By allowing yourself to embrace the concepts outlined in this book and by following the suggestions offered here. In doing so, I believe you will discover new qualities about yourself and those around you.
