7-Day Identity Funeral & Rebirth Ritual

7-Day Funeral & Rebirth Ritual

Bury the false self. Resurrect the real you.

1 False Identity Inventory
Make the brutal list:

Lie they told me → How I changed → Real me I’m reclaiming
Example: “You’re too emotional” → Hid feelings → I feel deeply and that’s my superpower
Then: Cross out every lie in red and say aloud:
“This was never me. This ends today.”
2 The Burn Letter
Write FROM the false self TO the narcissist (do NOT send):
“Thank you for teaching me how to disappear…”
Let it be angry, grateful, pathetic — whatever it needs to be.
Burn or shred it safely while saying:
“This identity is dead. I bury it here.”
3 Digital & Physical Purge
Delete photos, unfollow triggers, donate clothes you wore for them.
Make physical and digital space for the real you to return.
4 “I Am” Reclamation
Write 25 “I am” statements that feel like the real you:
I am loud when excited · I am soft when sad · I am powerful · I am allowed to take up space
Read aloud in mirror every day this week.
5 Playlist & Sensory Reclamation
Make the playlist of songs you stopped playing because they judged them.
Play loud. Dance. Cry. Scream-sing. Reclaim your joy, your taste, your body.
6 Boundary Voice Rehearsal
Practice aloud until your voice stops shaking:
• No. • That’s not acceptable. • I don’t owe an explanation. • My feelings are not up for debate.
Record yourself. This is your new voice.
7 Rebirth Ceremony
Do one irreversible act the false self would NEVER allow:
Dye hair · Tattoo · Wear the forbidden outfit · Post the unfiltered truth
Take a selfie and write: “This is me. The real one. She’s back.”
