LIFE ISN’T PERSONAL
If you have been following along and using the Sedona Method to let go of unwanted feelings and their thought ancestors- you might have noticed a space for Wisdom, original thought or an AHA to present itself.
The value of this practice is you begin to see how easy it is to let go in any situation; and how easy it is to have new ideas occur to you as well as peace, acceptance and courageousness.
I could have saved myself years of suffering if I had realized that NOTHING is personal – not people’s reactions – not their attitudes – not their decisions – and in fact – life’s movement itself is NOT ABOUT ME. (another way to say it’s not personal)
There is personal thought and for each of us – that varies based on habits of thought all the way back to our origins. However when we let go – it is the personal thoughts and feelings that we are letting go of. We are not letting go of our True Nature (that is impossible) or the possibility of Divine Thought.
Sometimes we don’t even have to intend to let go – it just naturally happens and we find ourselves at a new level of understanding. That new level of understanding is where we begin to see that Life in its beauty and its challenge is moving to places we cannot predict and we can flow with it – or we can resist it and find ourselves stuck or worse.
Recently I received news that work I really valued and counted on for income was ending. It wasn’t a total surprise and there were things about it I was ready to let go of – but nevertheless I went to habitual thought and took it all personally even though I knew better. Using the tools of letting go and the realizations that come from a moment to see something new – I was able to move quickly back to who and what I truly am:
The progression looks something like this:
A realization that our life is created moment to moment by our thoughts
That the power to think is different than the content of thought
When we let go of negative feelings we lose the content that is troubling
us
In its place we can have new insights that empower us and bring us to
in-nate joy that is our true nature
From there we serve and experience a new level of understanding
Repeat
There is always more to say than a blog can do – and so it is with all personal thoughts aside, that I am going to write a book. It will be both my experience and what I have seen with this understanding happen over 30 years and all over the world. It will be a compilation that I intend to be hopeful for everyone wondering if things are ever going to get better – for our individual lives and for our planet.
I hope you will stay with me as I do that work – there won’t be blogs but I will provide tidbits along the way – as I learn how to reach more people and become better at sharing what I KNOW in my heart is the truth.
It is entitled – Its only a matter in time. (yes it’s in not of)
Be well – Have hope- Live in your truest self – and help others as best you can.
With love,
