Integrating the value of Contemplation

Life Areas:  Spiritual ~ Divine Connection

 For this purpose consider your inner connected wisdom with a skill level of being able to separate from acting out on your thoughts and simply having ease noticing them. Observing your mind thinking as it passes through your fore-brain   Be willing to record your thoughts over a period of five minutes this week.  Notice how many you have, their context and if they are pleasing to you and filling you with inspiration. Afterwards begin to simply notice your thoughts and say to yourself “thinking.” 

Integrating the value of Groundedness

Life Area:  Groundedness

 Pause a moment and notice where your attention goes.  Is it in your forehead area?  If not, where in your body do you feel awake as you observe your senses? Notice and breathe in while arching your lower back, and exhale while rounding your lower back. Breathe in, become taller and breathe out become shorter (slouching).  Begin to notice your feet on the floor while you continue o breathe. The pressure in your toes, arches and heels.  Continue o breathe.

Integrating the value of Kindness

Life Area:  Nurturing

 “First we experience kindness to model kindness.”

 This week begin to notice how you show kindness to others.  At the same time each day stop and reflect on the acts of kindness in your behavior.  For fun choose one primary relationship and with purpose demonstrate kindness.  Notice by weeks end if it is returned

Integrating the value of Self-Forgiveness

Life area:  Celebration

Making mistakes is part of learning and growing. If we haven’t forgiven ourselves we will continue creating an identity around our pain, and this becomes our constant companion and self image.  It is how others know us in our relationships, “the one who is suffering.” Renee Lindstrom

 

Notice your suffering this week, name the feeling and identify what value that wasn’t met. 

The value of courage:

Life Area: Interdependence
Learning a new language is a new culture. You even think differently! It doesn’t take courage to learn a new language it takes time, effort and patience. It can be stimulating and inspiring. Now, here’s the thing, take your birth language and consider creating a new one while noticing your thought/speaking patterns. With a new language you are developing new brain pathways. Changing your language you are retraining old pathways in your brain and creating new. Now add to it that you are stepping free of the herd and being the change. This is courage!
