Feeling worn out and like weāve weathered a LOT lately? Ā The truth is, we have.
Ā
Michael Singer (Untethered Soul) reminds us ItĀ is not lifeās events that cause problems or stress. Ā It isĀ resistanceĀ to lifeās events that is causing this experience.
Ā
When we focus on CHANGE and transformation like we have the past few months, then striving for perfection can lead to burn out and becoming hypercritical of ourselves and others. Ā The key is acknowledging ourselves and others for even the tiniest bits of progress.
Ā
The mind though, is good at pointing out the negative, or all of the things weĀ havenātĀ yet accomplished. Ā What could you acknowledge you or someone else for today? Ā If thatās too difficult, ask someone to acknowledge you for something, and thenĀ let the acknowledgment in!Ā Ā We are all doing our best, and that is certainly enough.
Ā
Our truest nature isĀ naturallyĀ happy. Ā If we are frustrated or annoyed, then we are resisting what IS. Ā And this doesnāt mean we are happy 24/7, just more often than not. Ā Can you be happyĀ unconditionally? Ā Notice the reasons you have for not being happy right now. Ā āIām happy with my life, but I wish X, Y, or Z.ā Ā Life is short and if we are not enjoying the time on this planet between birth and death, then we are missing the point.
Ā
There is always a rainbow after a storm, we just have to look for it. Ā Find yours!
