Second Week of Marisa Peer’s “I Am Enough” Program

As I delved into the second week of Marisa Peer’s “I Am Enough” program, I found myself building upon the foundational concepts introduced in the first week. For those who haven’t read about my initial experiences, I began this journey by exploring the first week of the program, which focused on the “Rules of the Mind” and set the stage for the transformative experiences to come.

The Central Message

The program’s core belief is that we are all inherently enough. While it’s a straightforward concept, the second week pushed me to reflect on its depth and how it aligns with my personal beliefs.

Mindfulness Practices

The week introduced several mindfulness exercises. Through guided meditations, I tried to achieve a better sense of self-awareness. It was reminiscent of some teachings I’ve come across, like those of Jon Kabat-Zinn, emphasizing the importance of being present.

Parenting Insights

This week touched upon parenting and how the “I Am Enough” philosophy might influence it. The idea is to instill a sense of self-worth in our children, not necessarily to boost their ego. It made me think of some of Dr. Shefali Tsabary’s perspectives on recognizing our children’s individual journeys.

Holistic Health and Mental Beliefs

There was a discussion on the connection between our mental state and overall well-being. I explored how beliefs, especially about self-worth, might impact health. It was an interesting perspective, though not entirely new if you’ve read some of Deepak Chopra’s work.

Reflections on Week Two

The second week had its moments. Marisa discussed deflecting criticism and the idea of self-praise. The notion that not feeling enough is at the root of many personal issues was thought-provoking. The bonus video on ‘Rules of Confidence and Self-esteem’ was informative, though I believe building self-worth is a continuous process.

Engaging with the Community

A practical aspect of this program is the community. During the second week, I interacted with fellow participants, which added some context to my journey, hearing varied experiences and insights.

In Conclusion

The second week of Marisa Peer’s “I Am Enough” program was a blend of introspection and learning. As I move forward, I aim to take in what aligns with my perspective and experience.
