LEARN TO LET GO....

There are actually 4 ways of letting go & each one stands on its own & supports the others. . . . . . .
• Deciding to drop it
• Welcoming or allowing the emotion
• Diving into the core of the emotion
• Holistic releasing

These basic ways approach the process of releasing & all lead to the same result: liberating your natural ability to let go of any unwanted emotion on the spot & allowing some of the suppressed energy in your subconscious to dissipate. All these ways of letting go when taken to completion reveal that which we already are right now. The first way is by choosing to let go of the unwanted feeling. The second way is to welcome the feeling—to allow the emotion just to be. The third way is to dive into the core of the emotion. The fourth way is by holistically embracing both sides of any issue or belief..

FIND THE INNER BLISS...

Throughout our lives, we are taught to value speed & getting things done quickly. We learn that doing is more valuable than merely being, & that making the most of life is a matter of forging ahead at a hurried pace. Yet as we lurch forward in search of some elusive sense of fulfillment, we find ourselves feeling increasingly harried & disconnected. More importantly, we fail to notice the simple beauty of living. When we learn to slow down, we rediscover the significance of seemingly inconsequential aspects of life. Mealtimes become meditative celebrations of nourishment. A job well-done becomes a source of profound pleasure, no matter what the nature of our labors. In essence, we give ourselves the gift of time, time to indulge our curiosity, to enjoy the moment, to appreciate worldly wonders, to sit & think, to connect with others & to explore our inner landscapes more fully.

POSITIVE THOUGHTS....

Have you noticed that...

- The wrong words said at the wrong time is discouraging

- The wrong words said at the right time is frustrating

- The right words said at the wrong time is confusing

- The right words said at the right time is encouraging

The right words at the right time are like a cooling breeze of encouragement that lift the spirit & are treasured for a long time.

Sometimes the best thing we can do for others is to hold our tongue. When tempted to give advice that is not wanted, to show off, to say, "I told you so," or to point out another's error, sometimes the best policy is to say nothing.

We should strive "not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult, to leave unsaid the tempting thing at the wrong moment.

The Practice:

Ask yourself "What would I want to hear if I was in the other person's shoes?"
Then say the right words, at the right time, from your heart to their heart.

You might change someone's day, or even their life.
