In this Tao Dialogues episode, David explores emotional vulnerability.Have you ever wondered why you shield yourself from vulnerability? Have you convinced yourself that your protective armour keeps you safe when, in truth, it imprisons you and denies you genuine connection and growth?This episode explores how to choose openness over fear, authenticity over illusion, and freedom over self-imposed limitations. Vulnerability is an act of trust, not in others, but in yourself. It is a quiet, powerful reclamation of who you have always been.Read the blog post that inspired this episode: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/p/embracing-vulnerabilityOur Tao Dialogues are powerful yet gentle teachings about authenticity, spirituality and finding emotional balance and flow in everyday life.

In this Tao Dialogues, David explores the topic of self-love and self-compassion.Have you ever wondered why you find it easy to love others but struggle to direct that same love inward? Do you often seek validation from external sources, believing your worth must be earned? Have you ever felt disconnected from yourself, as if your emotions and thoughts belong to someone else? This episode explores the answers to these questions.Many believe love is something external, a gift to be received rather than a force that originates within. Yet, if we look deeper, we see that love is an incredible emotion that we create. Like the Tao, it is boundless and flows effortlessly when we allow it. Read the blog post that inspired this episode: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/p/the-power-of-self-love Our Tao Dialogues are powerful yet gentle teachings about authenticity, spirituality, and finding emotional balance and flow in everyday life.

Understand the impact of childhood rejection in adulthood and discover transformative techniques to help you heal and thrive.Childhood rejection and neglect often leave a lasting imprint on our emotional and mental wellbeing and shape how we perceive ourselves and interact with the world as adults.Those who experienced childhood rejection might engage in people-pleasing, perfectionism, or rescuing behaviours in relationships. They may also struggle with trust and self-identity, feeling disconnected from their true selves. This can result in a pattern of seeking validation from others, often in relationships that are imbalanced or unhealthy. The Inner Child also often remains vigilant, constantly seeking evidence to confirm its fears of rejection and unworthiness.In this episode, we delve into the complexities of childhood rejection and explore how it manifests in adulthood, along with some transformative techniques to heal and thrive.With your hosts, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher) and Alexandra Lees (mindset and business coach).Discover our online consultations, events and shop:  https://www.wuweiwisdom.comSubscribe to David's FREE Journal: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/Other related teachings on our YouTube channel that will help you:Our INNER CHILD PLAYLIST  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9NQ_PWX4zICGLRS1b7q1HSJhZRash5qqHealing Childhood Trauma https://youtu.be/yBYnJSsHrAw?si=HRkqAXZrpV3ZoXe3How to Heal Repressed Trauma https://youtu.be/nlB6lo41rDE?si=lHr2WOzGmqFwcga2Join our free Wu Wei Wisdom Community Facebook support group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/wuweiwisdomcommunity  If you love our work, you can now make a small donation to help fund the continued production of our weekly teachings by buying us a 'virtual coffee'! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/wuweiwisdom Book an online Golden Thread Process & Inner Child Consultation with David: https://www.wuweiwisdom.com/therapies-for-body-mind/ Follow us on Instagram: @wuweiwisdomSign up to receive a relaxing guided meditation gift, plus our weekly newsletter + offers via email: https://www.wuweiwisdom.com/signup​ -Disclaimer: This podcast and any associated teaching and comments shared are not a substitute for professional therapy, mental health care, crisis support, medical advice, doctor diagnosis, or professional healthcare treatment.

Do you believe you don't deserve happiness? Many of us carry guilt, shame, or unworthiness that blocks our joy and inner peace. In this episode, you'll discover how these feelings arise from deeper beliefs such as "I'm a bad person" or "I'm not good enough." These beliefs stem from experiences where we felt unloved or unworthy.You'll learn how these complex beliefs were formed in childhood and are now rooted in your Inner Child — a part of your mind that holds onto these negative beliefs.To break free, you must question these beliefs. Ask yourself: Why do I believe I'm not good enough? This self-inquiry often reveals that these beliefs are not based on truth but on past experiences.You must also accept that we all have innate worth and value. It's not something given by others but something you are born with. Accepting this truth is key to overcoming self-sabotage and embracing happiness.With your hosts, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher) and Alexandra Lees (mindset and business coach).Discover our online consultations, events and shop: https://www.wuweiwisdom.comSubscribe to David's Journal: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/Other related teachings on our YouTube channel that will help you:Our INNER CHILD PLAYLIST  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9NQ_PWX4zICGLRS1b7q1HSJhZRash5qqWhy Am I Unsatisfied With Life?

Learn how to balance childlike innocence and wonder whilst avoiding naivety, especially in relationships, setting boundaries, and pursuing dreams.The Inner Child is a part of our psyche that embodies innocence, curiosity, and a sense of wonder. It helps us engage with the world openly and optimistically. However, it's crucial to differentiate between this healthy openness and wishful thinking, which can lead to unrealistic expectations and emotional turmoil.This episode explores why naivety often stems from the Inner Child wanting things its way without considering reality. This desire for control can manifest as perfectionism, where we expect everything to be perfect — ourselves, others, and outcomes.You'll learn how not to suppress your Inner Child but to guide it with wisdom, so you can enjoy the richness and opportunities in life with a sense of groundedness and emotional stability.With your hosts, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher) and Alexandra Lees (mindset and business coach).Discover our online consultations, events and shop: https://www.wuweiwisdom.comSubscribe to David's Journal: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/Other related teachings on our YouTube channel that will help you:Our INNER CHILD PLAYLIST  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9NQ_PWX4zICGLRS1b7q1HSJhZRash5qqWhy Am I Unsatisfied With Life?

This is part 3 in our 5-part teaching series about THE MOST VALUABLE LIFE LESSONS you must teach your Inner Child to help reparent, love and nurture them. In this episode, we focus on how to help your Inner Child recognize its inherent value. Many people grapple with the concept of self-worth, believing it needs to be earned through the approval of others.

This is part 2 in our 5-part teaching series about THE MOST VALUABLE LIFE LESSONS you must teach your Inner Child to help reparent, love and nurture them.You are the creator of your emotions, not the victim. This concept can be challenging for the Inner Child to accept, as it often sees itself as a victim of emotions. Teaching the Inner Child to move from emotional overwhelm to empowerment involves recognizing emotions as signals for self-discovery. When you feel discomfort, it's an opportunity to examine your thoughts and beliefs. This approach leads to self-understanding and empowerment. In this episode, we explore practical ways to do this, including using the Golden Thread Process, a powerful tool for self-inquiry.With your hosts, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher) and Alexandra Lees (mindset and business coach).Discover our online consultations, events and shop: https://www.wuweiwisdom.comSubscribe to David's Journal: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/Other related teachings on our YouTube channel that will help you:Our INNER CHILD PLAYLIST  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9NQ_PWX4zICGLRS1b7q1HSJhZRash5qqHow to Master Your Emotions https://youtu.be/blJqZbinGlc?si=pll43xZDS1j7H_UJHow to Understand Your Emotions https://youtu.be/9XuoL9pQSR8?si=2rPO_RwnUyNYTMlQGuided Meditation for Anxiety  https://youtu.be/OMVd64lW6jw?si=XiY9LTvYkQ-L5pSZIs there a question you'd like answered on the show?

This is part 1 in our new 5-part teaching series about THE MOST VALUABLE LIFE LESSONS you must teach your Inner Child to help reparent, love and nurture them.In this episode, we explore why the Inner Child part of your psyche often feels fearful and insecure. It's that inner voice that worries about what might happen or dwells on unhappy past events, imagining they will repeat. This part of your mind is often rooted in confusing or traumatic childhood experiences. Understanding that this Inner Child isn't just a scared entity within you is crucial. It's a creator of emotions, not a victim. By recognizing this, you can stop the cycle of despair and insecurity.

Anger, resentment and the desire for revenge are powerful emotions that can often lead to a cycle of negativity and distress, but you can overcome them!Understanding the roots of anger, resentment, and the need for revenge and retribution is essential for personal growth and healing. By recognizing that we are the creators of our emotions, we can take responsibility for our reactions and emotional triggers.It is crucial to understand the origins of our anger and the beliefs that fuel it. Tracing these feelings back to beliefs often formed in childhood experiences can unravel the patterns that no longer serve us. This process allows us to replace harmful, anger-generating beliefs with healthier, more empowering ones.In this teaching, we explore how letting go of anger, resentment, and the desire for revenge opens the door to a life filled with compassion, understanding, and inner peace.With your hosts, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher) and Alexandra Lees (mindset and business coach).Discover our online consultations, events and shop: https://www.wuweiwisdom.comOther related teachings on our YouTube channel that will help you:The Angry Inner Child: Why Your Inner Child is Angry & Upset https://youtu.be/ja2w4DnUcZU?si=kD0xI5nmOz4cXYfAHow to Control Anger https://youtu.be/e06-25kuViE?si=YhyD3OmbSpw2-c8sAnger Issues Explained https://youtu.be/gfxRG3Jdv1A?si=vK7aj0PHNG_XlC-NHow to Master Your Emotions https://youtu.be/EQqGDnER3mA?si=_sOk33_9iBccrv88How to Control Your Emotional Triggers https://youtu.be/b6rhyu7WISQ?si=y8SPST6BJWvEcNcoIs there a question you'd like answered on the show?

Understand attention seeking: its causes, impacts, and solutions.For many, attention seeking begins with a constant need for approval and validation from others. Individuals often seek reassurance from peers, family, or authority figures, craving recognition and approval that they feel is missing from within.Such behavior can manifest in various ways. Some people may overtly seek attention through their looks, status, or achievements, while others might engage in more subtle forms, such as people-pleasing or overworking to gain praise. Regardless of how it presents, the core issue is a disconnection from one's true self.With awareness and effort, it is possible to overcome attention seeking behaviour. By understanding its roots and embracing our inherent worth, we can live more authentically and find fulfilment from within.With your hosts, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher) and Alexandra Lees (mindset and business coach).Discover our online consultations, events and shop: https://www.wuweiwisdom.comOther related teachings on our YouTube channel that will help you:Why Do I Seek Approval & Validation From Others? https://youtu.be/uACgIJGrLPg?si=0_PQ1RnycY8QeCZ0How to Stop People Pleasing https://youtu.be/SkokB7JzzbI?si=A5tnneBcI9V1H-ciHow to Stop Giving Your Power to Others https://youtu.be/rxZFelCBzsY?si=da4jpqq_GdiiaCvtIs there a question you'd like answered on the show?

Discover the essence of your intuition and how to connect with this powerful inner guide.Intuition is often described as an inner knowing, a gut feeling, or a quiet voice within. It's that unspoken truth that everyone possesses, yet not everyone listens to it. This inner wisdom is what Taoists refer to as 'Shen', your spirituality. It's a calm, wise, and grounded voice compared to the louder, more demanding voice of the Inner Child or ego.Many people believe intuition is a skill that some have and others lack. However, it's a universal trait that everyone can cultivate. The challenge lies in tuning out the noise and connecting to that quieter voice of your spirituality.

Traumatic memories can be deeply impactful, but with the right approach, you can move forward.Traumatic memories are not just about the events that happened; they are about the long-term beliefs, patterns of thinking and emotional feelings we create in response to those events. It's essential to differentiate between the event itself and the beliefs and thoughts we associate with it. This confusion often leads to a cycle of anxiety and distress.Healing from traumatic memories is a journey that requires understanding, compassion, and accountability.
