← CHAPTER OVERVIEW
What do we need to create our desired outcomes?
Dear Creatrix,
Wow, we’re at the end of week three already.
How much have you learned in these last three weeks? What has changed for you? What do you see differently? What feels different?
If you can, take some time to reflect on this now, even though, we will also review everything next week.
But really see what you can do to celebrate yourself for the incredible work you’ve been doing and will continue to do. And see to what you need, to really anchor these changes into your life, in a way that suits you and your circumstances and brings more joy, love, movement and balance into YOUR unique life.
Today I’d like to mention two more things, which, I thought, would have been two distracting to mention in the last two lessons in detail, even though we kind of touched on them already.
The first one is the fact that we can also use our imagination to train our physical body.
If you google this, you will be able to find many different examples.
Kind of the same way that we can heal our body with our mind by imagining it healthy, we can also practice, for example, hitting the basket when playing basketball in our minds. Or playing golf, or even playing the piano.
Studies indicate that it is as effective to practice these skills in your mind as it is to practice them in real life.
But this only works if you have already practised these things physically, too.
Because it’s difficult to imagine doing something really well, that you have not ever tried.
You may first have to know how to play the piano before you can practice it in your mind.
You may first have to know how to jump over the hurdle, or hit a goal, or throw the ball, before you can practice it in your mind.
So you can use this to accompany your embodied knowledge, to support your physical practice by practicing in your mind as well, and then notice the benefits of both in real life.
Keep this in mind with whatever you choose to do in your life and whichever routine you decide on.
Imagining the desired outcome, and practicing what you’d like to know well physically and in your mind, as this will help you to reach your goal. The more you train your mind to do this, the quicker it becomes your new subconscious programming and can help you master anything you wish.
Again, just try for yourself and be surprised.
The second thing is related to fear, love and personal and collective changes.
I have mentioned this briefly in the last lesson, but I find it so very important, that I would like to say a couple more words about this.
Nothing we do happens in a vacuum.
If we try to find out how consciousness works, how life works, we find out that we are all connected and that what we think, does not only have an effect on ourselves, and on our bodies, but on all around us.
Research was conducted, that showed that when a monkey on a remote island learned a skill and enough monkeys around him or her copied this behaviour, at some point, when a critical mass had been reached, all monkeys on the island knew how to use this skill, without having to see it or to be in personal contact with any of the monkeys who knew about it first.
And this is true for us humans as well.
Right now, we still live in a time in which most people base their lives on fear and avoidance.
Most people spend most of their time trying to prevent disasters, ageing, sickness, decline and in a way, my search for answers, and that of many, was born exactly out of this mindset, out of the suffering it causes – as I knew there was an alternative to this, I was born remembering the alternative, but I didn’t know or understand why people were basing their lives on fear, if they had other options, not knowing that most people don’t remember the things I remember.
And because of this I’m here, to share what I remember, so that you can remember too.
Becuse, when we look closely, what we find is that if we choose to act out of fear, we keep ourselves in a state of addiction and limitation, whereas when we choose from love, we free ourselves more and more.
What’s the difference?
Choosing fear would be: “I’m afraid I might get sick with old age, and I won’t be able to do the things any more that I love doing now. So I buy pills and listen to all these people who have things to say, and do what I can afford to keep myself healthy. But I don’t know whether it’s the right thing or enough, so the fear of failure will be with me at all times.”
It’s a belief that is based on lack, and thinking that you can’t find the answers for yourself and so you need others, depend on others, who don’t always have your best interest in mind, to provide answers for you, that may or may not help, and that makes it seem like life is a weird guessing game, where no one can be sure.
Which it is not, because your inner voice and your highest self always provide perfect guidance.
Choosing love would be: “I embrace change and choose to enjoy every period of my life. I know how to love myself and my body, and how to keep my mind and body active and strong. So I feel joyful about the changed perspectives I will get to encounter due to my age and the experiences that go along with it. I will embrace every challenge that comes my way lovingly, knowing I can trust myself and my body if I take the time to listen and act according to the messages and guidance I receive.”
Because this is a journey back to ourselves, and to learning how to trust our bodies and our inner guidance.
The guidance is always there for us and with it the inner knowing, the certainty, and the letting go of fear. We just have to re-focus on that and practice it, to see that there really is nothing to fear.
We only struggle as long as we trust others more than ourselves.
