Live Your Best Life Knowing You Are Safe, Loved, and Divinely Inspired

First of all, we can be our best selves by tuning in deeply to who each of us truly are, rather than by attempting to copy someone else.  Each of us is completely unique, with specific gifts, insights, and viewpoints that are not quite like anyone else.

 

I recommend starting with awareness that each of us is a multitude, consisting of levels of conscious agency, including our heads, hearts, and guts.  This matters, since we can sometimes get wrapped up in what we’ve been envisioning based on various ideas, despite feeling misgivings or very different inclinations from other levels of ourselves.

 

At each of these three broad levels of being (head, heart, gut), we can sense very different kinds of knowing.  We may notice that these levels of self awareness seem to have different views of our world, and different ideas about what we’re doing in this moment now.  When we notice such differences, we can receive gifts of deeper understanding regarding how some situations might have silver linings and deeper opportunities to better come to appreciate ourselves and how we relate to the Cosmos.I’ve sometimes been startled to notice that despite thinking I was completely of one accord with regard to a particular matter, I’ve inadvertently adopted an idea or vision that apparently was not in optimal harmonious alignment with all levels of myself.  Such awareness is possible at times when I’ve been sick or suffered an injury, resulting in my being unable to press onward and upward with what I had in mind as quickly as I’d hoped.

 

 

I feel a sense of caring connection, when slowing down and savoring each moment.  Carl Jung, the Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, said,

 

 

I resonate strongly with this philosophy, which I’ve lived in accordance with from childhood on, inspiring me to decline adopting some technological advances, such as cell phones.  There is no need to decline any and all technological advances, but rather there can be great contentment and satisfaction in working more (rather than less) closely with Nature and the natural world.
