Resolutions that ‘crash and burn’ speaks volumes for ‘our culture’

Today is a very significant day for the west.  As important as the Chinese New Year’s is to the Chinese Culture, the Tibetan New Years to the people of Tibet and other people’s of the world.

Have you considered the  cultural traditions of our Western New Year’s Celebrations?  The types of resolutions made and failure to keep them?  How does this reflect who we are, our ancestors and future children?  Resolutions such as; quite smoking, get a raise, lose weight, exercise, etc.  These types of resolutions in a health category of an overall group of intentions may likely have cultural significance.  Yet as a stand alone resolution it doesn’t say much for the aged wisdom of our culture.  Adding to this are the stats that resolutions are not kept up for five days here in the west and that less than a 10% are successful. Staggering!  Imagine what this say’s about our society?  Stamina?  Strength of character?  Winners?  Achievers?

Cultural celebrations of other countries include a focus on ancestors, home, wealth, family, etc., that includes the values of respects, accountability, intention and motivation for the coming year.  Years of rituals are kept to represent these values, passed down from family to family.  Even if they too focus on wealth, their rituals of preparation include the other areas, such as the dragon dance, red envelopes, gifts, family and community participation, mediation, burning of smoke and sacred gatherings.

New Year’s Day is very important in our culture and an excellent beginning to shift our consciousness by shifting our focus to what connects us to our own heritage, our family, home, community and who, what and how, we want to be in this year of 2014!  What do we want to achieve that contains the values of respect, acknowledgement, kindness, ecology, consideration, abundance, connection………

It may be time for some of us to consider how we are ringing in the New Year in Canada and the U.S. and how it sets the culture for the new year.    The party atmosphere with January 1st hangovers is great for children, yet when do we,  the adults, wake up?  Wake up to what  we are  creating and  model a new behavior.  One that supports and creates traditions to pass down and becoming the change for future new years.  This is the shift of society we are all asking for!  It begins by changing our behavior and creating the path.

Do we really want to hear the media tells us over and over how vain we are and what a bunch of looser we are?  Is this our legacy?

Let’s make a big deal of New Years differently and stand up for how we want to shape our culture in 2014!

Cycle of change

Recognizing need for change, 

Meaning grows:

  • Loss
  • Love
  • Birth

                                            Renee Lindstrom

Meaningful Change

Change takes root when the change is meaningful and the conscious awareness recognizes the differences of the two experiences.  (before and after the change) Conscious awareness is beyond  justifying your actions and reasoning, it is accepting it as it is and observing it.

“Living your confidence balanced with empathy” in relationships and redefining ego

It takes courage to be heart-centered, confident and self-assured.  It also takes courage to live from this point of independence.

Experiencing any beauty in your relationships begins with your behavioral  patterns and how much inner-confidence and independence you feel balanced together with your ability for being self-assuring.

You may seek change by changing the way you look through diet, clothes, fitness  and re-designing your surroundings.  Do these last when you are affected by your relationships!  What is the first thing you reach for when you have a disagreement or are bored?  

What would your personal goal success rate be by starting with inner change support, so what you show on the outside is coming from the inside?

Inside Awareness Methods focus upon seven steps for personal success.  They are integrated into Renee’s coaching and teaching experiences.  Whether you are looking for transformation in your relationships or increasing your  movement abilities,  following these simple steps change how you experience yourself.

SEVEN STEPS TO SUCCESS

  1. Commitment
  2. Intention
  3. Grounding
  4. Practice
  5. Integration
  6. Learning
  7. Conscious Habitual Patterns
If your “search” for change has deepened into a “longing” for change it is time to take grounded and supportive action to make it happen.  Find out more about each one of the these steps by joining Renee at one of her events or by making a direct inquiry.  Email her at renee(at)insideawareness(dot)com or call her at (two, five, zero) three-six-one-seven-five-zero-eight.  

 

Change thru mindfulness & space relationships

Integration of personal change through developing relationships with mindfulness and space

Wrapping up tips for the month of January to support manifesting personal goals it is with a growing appreciation I am now beginning to hear news clips, talk show hosts and read news paper articles that support all the little daily suggestions that began as a project Jan 1st.  This is validation that these tips are useful to begin to change a culture of negative reinforcement that creates failure!  We need to reverse our negative self talk into positive mindfulness and become our own best friends.
