They’re called Samskaras.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Samskaras can come up and you don’t even  realize it, but they will cause you to react in a particular way based upon your past. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Samskaras may be a trigger or conditioning. The problem with samskaras is that they prevent you from experiencing things in the present moment. Samskaras are a form of resistance. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Have you ever thought about what it actually is that you’re resisting by staying where you are? </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Join me in learning how to  get to the bottom of what we’re really hungry for.
