Many people who practice Ho\u2019oponopono often express concerns about their Cleaning not working well or being done incorrectly. In these moments, it\u2019s essential to focus on the level of trust you have in your own Unihipili.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our subconscious, our inner child, has been ignored for a very, very long time. Only recently have we begun to engage with it, so what exactly are we expecting from this relationship?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To live as our true, perfect selves and to see the world free from memories, the depth of trust and love between you and your Unihipili is crucial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I struggled with depression and anxiety for many years. Even as a young child, I was burdened by depressive feelings. For example, when receiving a Christmas present, instead of feeling joy, I worried, \u201cWhat if other kids didn\u2019t receive anything?\u201d Back then, I would feel down with no idea how to handle it, wondering why I felt so much pain and shame. And even now, I still experience these feelings. I discovered Ho\u2019oponopono at 30 and have practiced it for decades since. I\u2019m certain that the reason I am here today, living, is thanks to Cleaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For Unihipili, there are so many deeply painful things. Sometimes I feel like crying for reasons I don\u2019t understand, or feel sad or empty. I may even feel embarrassed that, after all these years of Cleaning, I still have these emotions. But if that\u2019s the case, it\u2019s an opportunity to offer Unihipili the utmost care and love, because it is Unihipili, my own self, who has suffered under memories of things that never seemed to go right, no matter how hard I tried.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThat\u2019s tough, but it\u2019s just a memory. It\u2019s just there. We can let it go. Let\u2019s try releasing it.\u201d Just saying this, gently and compassionately, can make a world of difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThank you for showing me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When we express only gratitude to ourselves for what we\u2019re experiencing, without judgment or punishment, we begin to feel a new rhythm within ourselves\u2014a sense of confidence that becomes stronger with each acknowledgment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even if my child acted in embarrassing ways or appeared foolish in front of others, I am the one who wants to stand by them, to trust them no matter what others may think or say. I want to say, \u201cThank you for showing me. It\u2019s time to let go.\u201d Even if I\u2019ve been through this process repeatedly, there\u2019s always more. So, let\u2019s keep Cleaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even now, waves of depression come over me. But I feel they come less frequently, and I\u2019ve become quicker at working with Unihipili. It\u2019s all rooted in Unihipili feeling loved. When you experience love and trust within yourself, no matter the circumstances, that inner confidence becomes your foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
