The Power of Authenticity: Unveiling Your True Self
Apr 18, 2024Recently I heard a TEDx talk claim that authenticity was one of the most powerful vibrations a human could emanate. It got me thinking so I asked AI what it thought about the matter and this is what it said:
Authenticity is the quality of being genuine, true to oneself, and honest in one's actions, emotions, and interactions. It involves being real and transparent, without pretense or artificiality. An authentic person or expression is in alignment with their values, beliefs, and inner self, rather than conforming to societal or external expectations.
Being authentic means embracing your uniqueness and not trying to be someone you're not. It's about having the courage to show your vulnerabilities and imperfections. Authenticity is often valued because it fosters trust, genuine connections, and a sense of realness in personal and professional relationships.
In the context of self-help and personal development, authenticity is often encouraged as a way to live a more fulfilling and meaningful life by aligning with one's true self and values. It can lead to greater self-awareness and the ability to make choices that are in harmony with one's authentic self.
I couldn’t have said it better myself.
However, how does one actually develop this superpower that authenticity seems to be?
A lot of people equate being true to their feelings, and expressing whatever is sitting inside them as authenticity.
But is it?
To me, as a person who sees and reads energy daily, it is not.
Most people are living with what I call foreign energy in them. The energy that isn’t there.
It is other people's thoughts, feelings, energy, and even conditioning from movies, ads, their upbringing, and the world as a whole.
So if everyone goes around expressing what’s going on inside of them, they are really just expressing or identifying with the impression the world has left on them, or taught to see themselves as.
To be truly authentic you have to actually know the truth of who you are.
How do you do that?
Either through deep self-inquiry or through peeling off the layers of who you are not, layer by layer until your true self shines through.
That is the work of spiritual development.
That is what I teach and hold practice space for in my mentorship group.
How do you cultivate authenticity for yourself? Do you see it differently?
