The Mountain Is You

THE WAY YOU ARE SELF-SABOTAGING:
Going back to the 
same person who broke you in a relationship. This could 
be a platonic friend but is most commonly a former ro-
mantic partner.
WHAT YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND MIGHT WANT YOU TO 
KNOW:
It could be time to evaluate your childhood rela-
tionships. If you find something comforting or appealing 
about someone who hurts you, there’s usually a reason.
THE WAY YOU ARE SELF-SABOTAGING:
Attracting people 
who are too broken to commit in a real way. 
WHAT YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND MIGHT WANT YOU TO

THE WAY YOU ARE SELF-SABOTAGING:
Feeling unhappy, 
even if nothing is wrong, and really, you’ve gotten every-
thing you’ve wanted in life.
WHAT YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND MIGHT WANT YOU TO 
KNOW:
 You are probably expecting outside things to make 
you feel good rather than relying on changing how you 
think and what you focus on. No outward accomplish-
ment is going to give you a true and lasting sense of inner 
peace, and your discomfort, despite your accomplish-
ments, is calling your attention to that. 
THE WAY YOU ARE SELF-SABOTAGING:
Pushing people 
away.
WHAT YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND MIGHT WANT YOU TO 
KNOW:
You want people to love and accept you so much 
that the stress of it all makes you isolate yourself from the 
pain, effectively creating the reality you’re trying to avoid. 
Alternatively, needing solitude too often usually means 
there is a discrepancy between who you pretend to be and 
who you actually are. When you show up to your life more 
authentically, it becomes easier to have people around you, 
as it requires less effort.
