Summary
“My Attack Thoughts Are Attacking My Invulnerability.” – A Course in Miracles Workbook, Lesson 26
Have you ever noticed how quickly we go into mental battle mode—criticizing, judging, or trying to control—when we feel unsafe, insecure, or vulnerable?
This week on Love & Learn, we explore Lesson 26 from A Course in Miracles Workbook, which reveals a powerful paradox: the more we attack, the more vulnerable we feel. And the more vulnerable we feel, the more we attack.
In this episode, Jessica unpacks the concept of invulnerability not as denial, but as a spiritual remembering. We are reminded that our true Self—the part of us beyond ego and form—is incapable of being wounded.
This episode also includes an honest reflection on how this lesson interacts with real-world threats, wealth inequality, and systemic injustice. Jessica shares her own perspective on discernment and how we can hold both spiritual invulnerability and human vulnerability at the same time.
Key Insights from Lesson 26
✨ Every attack thought is an act of self-harm: When we believe we can attack others, we simultaneously believe we can be attacked. This mindset diminishes our sense of safety and erodes our connection to peace.
✨ Vulnerability is created in the mind—not the world: According to the Course, your true Self is untouchable, eternal, and safe. But when we choose thoughts of fear, judgment, or control, we forget that—and invite the illusion of threat.
✨ Only your thoughts can make you feel vulnerable—and only your thoughts can restore your invulnerability: You don’t need someone else to change for you to feel secure. You don’t need the world to be perfect. What you need is to notice the thoughts that create fear—and choose differently.
Reflection Questions
- Where in my life am I bracing for attack instead of standing in love?
- What thoughts do I entertain that make me feel weak, unsafe, or small?
- In what situations do I confuse fear-based control with protection?
- How might my experience shift if I believed I was invulnerable—safe in my essence, no matter what?

| 1:37.5 | And since we often hear the word vulnerability, but very often do we hear the word invulnerability. |
| 1:43.5 | So I just wanted to kind of put some definitions around it and context around this word |
| 1:49.0 | since it will be being used much more than vulnerability in today's lesson. |
