What Can We Do with Our Mind?

The Path To ForgivenessA lot is happening. For many, it can be overwhelming, depressing, and threatening. Our mind is trying to figure out how to keep us safe, but it does not necessarily know how to do it. Our mind needs to learn a new language.

Anticipating, solving, fixing, understanding, organizing – all of these skills are useful; but, in some ways, it can be useless if that is all your mind can do. Your mind needs to be sensitive; your mind needs to learn instead of lead. Your mind needs to listen and feel without going into quick labeling.

If your mind only operates in a linear mode, you will feel restless, agitated, depressed, or confused. When your mind becomes sensitive, you develop a way of knowing and understanding that directly connects to your wisdom. When the mind is sensitive, you become intuitive.

The fastest way I know off to develop a sensitive mind is through breathwork. If you feel called, join me every Wednesday at 9 am PDT for 30 minutes.

One of the greatest challenges in today’s culture is that we have forgotten what a community is. True community is not built on uniformity; it is built on authenticity.

A community is a space where each person is encouraged to connect with their true self. From that place of inner truth, we learn to dance with each other’s uniqueness. We grow by witnessing one another. We learn to love more fully, expand our awareness, and open to perspectives beyond our own.

We may bump into each other’s, experience our fears, projections, hopes, or attachments and in doing so, we heal. We stay awake and stretch our hearts wider than we ever imagined possible.

True community is rooted in diversity. If our opinions, belief systems, our tastes are exactly the same, our sense of self begins to dissolve. Belonging does not come from subscribing to an ideology, it comes from living in alignment with our truth and being accepted for it.

Nature offers us the perfect example; it thrives in diversity. As humans, it is our responsibility to build, nurture, and participate in communities. When we unplug from this essential connection, everything begins to fall apart, and human values erode.

Remember, we always have a choice.
