What Is Scarier than Wearing Masks for Halloween?

I am inspired by the upcoming holiday of Halloween!

On this holiday, we are all invited to playfully choose to become something different than we typically show up in our daily lives. We can wear masks and costumes to be something or somebody who is sillier, scarier or more confident than we perceive ourselves to be. Its a fun opportunity to hide who we really are and be who we want to be for the moment.

But, have you considered that many of us also wear metaphorical masks in our daily lives?  We may portray ourselves in a way that we can ‘blend in’ with others in our lives but is also incongruent with who we really are.

We may wear masks to hide our:

• Fear of being perceived as different

• Potential consequences of actually being seen

• Feeling of not being good enough with who we actually are

• Perceived pain of being fully transparent

• Unknowing of who we truly are

Are you curious of what it might feel like to take the mask off?
