We can appreciate where we are in terms of our current situation, as well as planning the next steps to move us forward towards aligned expansion of consciousness.

Life is definitely more fun and exciting when we are creating something meaning for us. When we are totally engaged in the creating mode, time flies because we are completely engaged.

Recently, I’ve been writing about a very traumatic period of my life, my childhood. This is intended to be a story on wisdom, forming a chapter, which will appear in a collective work with other co-authors.

In reviewing my childhood, I’m surprised that I understood my emotions so that I knew how to sooth myself from anxious thoughts. I remember being overly anxious about taking any tests in school so I learned to over-prepare to reduce my anxieties. I didn’t develop negative self-talk that I shouldn’t feel nervous. I just accepted that I was a worrisome child, and came up with strategies to reduce my anxieties. That was innate wisdom in action.

Ultimately, self-compassion is a form of self-acceptance. We can learn to accept being a human being with incredible range of sensitivities and complex psychology. Parents just send children to school to fill their heads with academic knowledge. Teachers don’t have time to teach us about how to manage our minds and our decision processes. These high level skills and sensibilities must be learned on our own through deeper self-awareness.

Mastering self-trust can be the most empowering feeling and knowing anyone can experience.

This is a tough topic to navigate because we are aware of the past when we didn’t trust ourselves, and we faced the consequences. I’ve met many people who shared that they didn’t trust themselves. So, what does this mean?

One major way of reducing anxieties is by simplifying our lives. This might mean that you have to turn your entire life upside down to clear away the clutter. Once some “space” is created, it becomes easier to identify what makes us feel more fulfilled.

The minimalism movement is going strong for a reason. Once we are able to discard what does NOT serve our well-being, we create space to enjoy the more meaningful activities in our lives. This could mean creating the space to make more calls to our family members. This could mean extra energy reserves for starting or finishing our passion projects. This could mean rearranging our homes to be more attractive and functional so that our mood is elevated. Beauty of our surroundings has enormous value to our well-being. A cluttered mind, cluttered home, cluttered car, or cluttered office space can be the source of tremendous “background” anxiety and frustration.

Although there exists no magical crystal ball to “see” our future experiences, the best alternative is to expand one’s innate AWARENESS capacity, which can help to de-condition away from limited thinking and feeling patterns to more empowering states of consciousness.

People who do not fully appreciate the complexity of a human being are looking for some quick methods for instant manifestations in the form of books, secret recipes, super supplements, prayers or any number of things on the market that promise the heavens.
