07 Jan Where’s the Pause Button?
When did we decide not to insert a pause between an impulse and action?
I’m shocked and horrified by the January 6, 2021 events at the US Capitol.
Still rattled today.
Breathing into my own experience, lengthening my pause I realized those macro events of yesterday are similar dilemmas individuals experience.
There’s the old incomplete “stuff” of life.
It gets triggered.
And bam. We react.
So where is the pause button?
Where and how do we insert it?
I can’t speak to the macro level. My expertise is in transforming individual patterns.
Thankfully, there is a step by step process to develop and activate an inner pause. It happens at every level of the process.
Developing it along the way first in the body, then through thoughts and emotions, waking to the power of our energetic selves, and then the magic becomes clearer.
It’s in cultivating this 4th layer that we have access to inner wisdom. As that wisdom layer establishes itself within us it directs the transition into a new pattern.
We can then leave behind the old, patterns of upheaval, shut down, reactivity.
That’s where we no longer have to “practice” instead being who we want to be.
That’s where life becomes internally richer and more satisfying.
