When we notice that one of our habitual reactions is to put up inner walls, shut things out of our experience, pull ourselves down, and block the life-flow of energy within; and when we know that this is not what we really want to be doing because it is inconsistent with our ultimate Goal of loving, joyous, generous Life--towards ourselves and others--this can be a helpful direction to give ourselves:
"I am not blocking open, energetic, loving Flow."
Repeated over and over, surrendering to the deepest part of us that knows exactly how to re-organize everything into a positive, upward direction, these words can seem to work magic to carry us effortlessly towards our Goal.
I like your blog very much. It's simple enough to read, and practice; simple in our world of too many words it wonderful.
ReplyDeleteSuggestion for this one: putting directions in the positive, so that the mind doesn't need to remove the negative, the not; thus, I am open, energetic, in loving Flow. ?
Thank you, Stevie for your appreciative words; I'm glad you like the blog! I also like your suggestion, since positive thoughts like this often help. However, I have good reasons for expressing this in the negative, which I'd like to write about in a subsequent post. Stay tuned! :)
