About
The third step in the Recover Your Soul process is about gently and lovingly uncovering the stories, beliefs, and patterns that have shaped your life. These deeply rooted narratives—formed during childhood, shaped by family dynamics, and influenced by core wounds—have often unconsciously driven how you see yourself, others, and the world around you. This step invites you to step into a space of curiosity and compassion, allowing you to explore what has been hidden beneath the surface of your awareness. Rev. Rachel often says: "These beliefs and patterns were created as a way to survive, to feel safe, to navigate the complexities of life when we were too young to understand it fully. They made sense at the time, but they may no longer serve us. They may even be causing us suffering. Soul Recovery asks us to gently uncover these wounds so that we can begin to see clearly and be ready for real change." This step isn’t about blaming anyone or finding fault. It’s not about getting lost in the past or re-traumatizing yourself. Instead, it’s an opportunity to honor and validate the younger parts of yourself that created these beliefs out of necessity. These protectors—whether they showed up as fear, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or control—developed to guard your heart and keep you safe. They were doing the best they could with what they had. But now, as you step into this process, you are opening yourself to a new way of being. By shining a light on these subconscious patterns, you can begin to recognize their impact on your life and the ways they’ve kept you stuck in cycles of pain or dissatisfaction. With this awareness comes an invitation: to gently let go of the old stories that no longer serve you and open to the possibility of healing and transformation. "Together we can do the work that will Recover Your Soul." Rev Rachel Harrison
