We think that we all live in this objective world, but all people live mainly in themselves.
We don’t see the real world, we don’t know it, anything we can see in our reality is seen through our perception filters. Each individual has his own filters. Our interior world is all we have! This is our main treasure or nightmare, this is the way we are built. However, we do not understand our inner world, who we are, what we are doing on that planet or where we are going.
Let me give you an overview of different parts or layers of our inner world. Perhaps that will help to better understand how we are constructed and how to change it in a way we want it to be.
The Deep Layers Of Our Inner World
In the GSR System, we have a clear description of our inner world, which is made up of different layers:
- Reaction (physical & emotional)
- Information (knowledge & mental states)
- Feeling & states (our deep resources, conflicts & scenarios)
- Spiritual (overall life strategy & spiritual paths)
- Deep integral
1. The Reaction Layer (physical & emotional)
It’s about a physical, emotional part of us. This is the principal point of our contact with the outside world, the real world. We have our body, which represents a physical, material object and our reactions and emotions in connection with this physical body.
Most people may notice in some way their reactions to different triggers that happen in their lives. For example, when we are afraid, we may have different reactions: we run or hide, sometimes we may attack the thing, the situation or the person that annoy or frighten us. We don’t have to think about it, it’s more of an instinct. If we touch something too hot, we have no time to think if it’s too hot and if it’s dangerous. We react within a second after touching the hot object, and we rescue our skin by reacting immediately to this trigger. Our emotions and bodily responses are mainly at this level of consciousness.
2. Information layer (knowledge & mental states)
This is a more profound level in our inner world, deeper than the reaction layer. Here we have a kind of information about ourselves, about the world around us and we act on the information we have in our head. Everyone has different information about the same objects, depending on the level of intelligence, different cultural perspectives, education and personal experience. However, we can never say whether the information we have is true or not, because it is a very subjective matter.
The most of the psychological schools work with these two levels of consciousness when we try to study our inner world on the informational or behaviour levels, understand how it works and try to change our mental habits and physical reactions. So, these methods help the person to change its behaviour by changing their reactions and information. If we can’t change something deeper, we just adapt the person to the reality. If you are depressive or explosive, we are trying to figure out why, what is the trigger and how to avoid it. So, I try to understand myself and try to deal with this. However, you may know everything about yourself, study yourself for twenty years and still be the same depressive person (I personally had clients who spent 20 years in psychoanalysis without any change).
Sometimes, the psychological methods are able to work with even deeper layers of consciousness, that are deeper than reactions and mental habits and states, however, this is quite random and depends on the talents of master in psychology, psychoanalysis, meditations and other practices able to feel these deep layers and go deeper in the human being’s psyché.
However, the most of the practices today are working only with two superficial levels of human consciousness (reaction and information), and the most people are trying to change their lives in life coaching and trainings by changing their behavior (the layer of reaction) and changing mental states (layer of information and knowledge).
However, there is another, deeper layers, which influences everything in a human being, the layers of information and reaction, and quite often we are unable to change them, except in some deep practices.
Let me explain you how it works.
The information and the reaction layers are not directly related to each other, even if the deeper layer always influences the more superficial one. Which is why when we change some information on subject in our head, we can react differently to some triggers.
For instance, a person may learn as a child that it’s bad to kill other people, steal things from others or cheat on a partner and will act in this way. However, one day he or she may have a new trigger from outside which is deeper than the information level. The deeper level will influence the person to act in another way.
So, if we have the information “stealing is not good” or “cheating is not good” and the feeling “I like to feel myself as a free person and break all the rules”, it might force us to act in a different way. We will steal things or cheat even if we know ‘on the information level) it’s not good. Maybe we will hide our acts from others, but we will still act in this way and somehow destroy our life.
So, we might know how to act efficiently but still act stupidly. We all know that quite well. The information layer can influence the reaction layer and your behaviour but only if there is no something deeper inside you that will force you to make the bad choices.
For instance, we might know that dangerous situations or bad habits are not good for us (risky behaviour or drinking alcohol), but we will still choose them. Why? Because of the deeper layer, the layer of feelings.
3. Layer of feelings (feelings, perception & inner states)
Yes, this layer looks common to us, however, this is not clear at all. We talk a lot about our feelings, however, we do not understand them. Very often, people live in their heads and do not know how do they feel. And the things that they notice and they call feelings, are just the first level (reaction & emotions of our body).
This layer is so deep and complicated in our psyché, that people are not able to understand what is going on right inside them. People do not feel this layer and can’t work on it directly. However this layer influences everything in people life. Everything. Even if we think we are the most intelligent person in the world and do not let feelings choose for us, we are still influenced by them completely and make all our choices depending on them.
So, our feelings are influencing everything inside us: our perception of reality, life choices, information and reaction, talents, resources, money, health, our behavior, relationship, work, life preoccupation and level of wealth. If we are not able to handle our feelings, we are not able to handle our lives.
It’s important to understand that the most of the time it exists a huge confusion in perception of feelings in our society.
We talk about our feelings such as love, anger, fear, etc., however the most of the time we are referring to consequences (the reaction & information levels) and not to the roots of these inner states. Because there is a huge difference between love as an emotional state (a reaction and superficial layer of emotions when we are attracted to someone) and information (I love you or I do not love you, which might be quite different from the level of reaction, even the opposite, for instance, I am attracted to your body but I do not love you, or I love you but I do not attracted to you on a physical level).
If we go deeper to the feeling and states, layers, we will discover that there are lots of complicated feelings and states that are quite opposite to love and we do not understand them but we can notice the consequences.
For instance, we love someone, however the relationship (with a child, parents, partner or even with ourselves) is not that happy and healthy. We know that we love and we want all the best to our relationship, however, nothing works as it should be, or the most of the time it’s complicated.
This happens because of these deep layers of our consciousness when behind love we have a bunch of complicated feelings (I feel dependency of you, I am afraid of you because I feel that you are too dangerous to my self, if I get closer, you will destroy me which is why I choose to be in a distance from you to avoid being hurt, I give you everything that I have, my energy, time and attention in order to be needed, however I always feel exhausted because I am not able to receive the same from you, etc., etc.) There are lots of unconscious programmes running deep inside us, these programs are not easy to solve out, because they started somewhere deep inside us, very often even before our birth, because our parents and grand-parents experiences the similar feelings towards other people and situations and they transfer them to us).
In the GSR System, we work a lot with this layer of consciousness, feelings & states. Today, there is a huge amount of data accumulated by GSR practitioners and specialists working on feelings, with themselves and other people. We know a lot about feelings and how to deal with them. And everything changes rapidly in the GSR System and we keep discovering new ways of working with our inner world.
When we work with the layer of feelings and perception, we are able to discover in one GSR session a dozen and hundreds of different scenarios and conflicts playing deep inside us, find the deepest root of the program and solve it in an effective way.
Some feelings and states in our inner world might last for our entire life and poison our existence, but we can resolve this inner conflict rapidly by using a 5-steps GSR technique and get rid of them for ever. These negative feelings and perceptions will change for an clear and effective way of being.
And instead of being unable to open to someone who we love, we will be able to feel more confident, our perception of the world becomes healthier and integral and we are getting more and more happy.
4. Spiritual layers (deeper layers)
Here we talk about even more profound layers of human beings, spiritual paths and experiences lasting our entire life or even a few lines (for those who believes in reincarnation). There are some layers in our internal system that are huge and influence our entire life: who we are, what we are looking for in this world). In the GSR System, we have different methods to work with these parts of our inner world, to change the ineffective and unhappy life strategies and choices. In a human being’s life, sometimes we need dozens or even our entire life to earn some experiences and go out from some patterns. We can see some repetitive patterns in a human being’s life, for instance, if we study closely some biographies and life scenarios, we discover different repetitive periods which we call sometimes “karma” or “life lessons”. A good news is that today you do not need to live fifty years to get rid of some sort of “karma” or “negative life scenarios”, you can solve them quite rapidly with the GSR System’s methods and spend these years of your life in a better way.
5. Deep integral layers
In the GSR System we call them “deep layers” of consciousness that are even deeper than the layers of reaction, information, feelings & states and spiritual layers. In some spiritual systems we can find different names for these layers, however the most of the people are not aware of them. However, these layers influence everything in this universe and deeper we go into our consciousness, more effective and conscious we become. When we understand better how to deal with our inner world and change it in a way we want it to be, we are getting more efficient and flourishing in our life. Imagine, that you are born to be something, but you want to be someone else. When you are going deeper into your consciousness, your inner world, you’re getting more and more control on your inner system, you can create and re-create it in a way that suits you the best. And this is a new path in the GSR System that you can follow by going deeper and deeper into yourself and getting more and more integrated, effective, happy and conscious.
How To Work With Your Inner World?
When you are choosing to change your life with the GSR methods, you can start by trying a GSR session to understand better how it works and get your first tangible results, then acquire the First Module of GSR (it takes up to 2 days or a few weeks to do a GSR session on your own and change your feeling and states), then you can go with a GSR expert who will accompany in your journey to your inner world.
My mission today, as I see it, to give to every person on this planet the access to the best GSR techniques. If we change our inner feelings and states, we will become happier, flourishing, open-minded and be able to change our lives, those of our family, colleagues, friends and all people around us.
I wish you a wonderful journey to your inner world and to yourself! With the GSR!
In the next chapters, I will share with you some insights on how to work with your inner world and its different layers by using the best methods of the GSR technique.
