An Inner Awakening

"Cherish your visions, your ideals and the music that stirs in your heart. If you but remain true to your visions, your world will at last be built." -James Allen

"Insist on yourself; never imitate. Your own gift you can present every moment with the cumulative force of a whole life's cultivation; but of the adopted talent of another you have only an extemporaneous half possession... Do that which is assigned to you, and you cannot hope too much or dare too much." -Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Too many times we stand aside and let the waters slip away, 'Til what we put off for tomorrow has now become today. So don't you sit upon the shoreline and say you're satisfied. Choose to chance the rapids and dare to dance the tide." -Garth Brooks

"Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding" - Albert Einstein

"Disobedience, in the eyes of any one who has read history, is man's original virtue. It is through disobedience that progress has been made, through disobedience and through rebellion." - Oscar Wilde

"You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover is yourself." -Alan Alda

"Never mind searching for who you are. Search for the person you aspire to be." -Robert Brault

"The man who views the world at fifty the same as he did at twenty has wasted thirty years of his life." -Muhammad Ali

"I can teach anybody how to get what they want out of life. The problem is that I can't find anybody who can tell me what they want." -Mark Twain

"He who knows others is learned;
He who knows himself is wise."
-Lao-tzu, Tao te Ching

"It's a helluva start, being able to recognize what makes you happy." -Lucille Ball

"He not busy being born is busy dying." -Bob Dylan

"Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it." -Buddha

Your outer environment reflects your inner environment. As you heal and evolve your inner environment you will see you outer environment start to change and evolve as well without any outer effort. It doesn't take much to start seeing this change. For instance pay attention to your thoughts and see what is reflected in your outer environment without making any changes internally at first.

Then start purposely choosing to put your thoughts and focus on something specific, start out with something easy. Such as a color or lets say seeing people smile that have a certain color hair. Start focusing on it, seek out pictures that reflect what you are making an effort to give attention to. Then start looking for that in your outer environment. Slowly you will start seeing it more and more!

This exercise is only to prove to your mind that when it starts purposely focusing on something or giving attention to something that your outer experiences will start to match it.

Then start on one thing you would like to heal from within. The more specific and the better. For instance, if you said your health, that is a very broad subject and can contain dozens if not hundreds of things. Now lets get really specific, if you have a finger that feels a little weaker than the rest, consciously chose to stop focusing on how weak it is and purposely start focusing on the things it can do and how strong it is. Watch how quickly you will see the strength in that finger grow.

The most amazing results I have seen from healing is when someone experiences emotional healing. I myself have experienced some profound and dramatic changes in my life just by focusing on healing past relationships and pain from the past. It is so amazing how those relationships and my life outwardly automatically change without any external effort, as I give attention and make an effort only to change my internal experience.

Having helped facilitate some people heal anger and resentment until they can't even remember why or how to feel those feelings again and then seen the direct affect it had on their physical life, I know without a doubt that it is very possible and that our outer experiences absolutely reflect our inner environment. The process is amazing and for some almost miraculous.

What do we have to lose? We can't hurt anything by healing our inner environment. If it doesn't change your outer circumstances (which I know it will) then you still didn't lose anything, you still feel better internally.

Give it a shot, you have nothing to lose!

About Me Module for Squidoo

I live in southern California with my wonderful fiancé and amazing 14 year old son. I have a deep passion for personal and spiritual growth. I don't feel satisfied or happy when I am not growing or evolving. I have gone through a lot in life and am now in a place where I have finally found self love and the ability to believe in myself. There is nothing I love more in the world than helping others feel good about themselves and create the lives they desire, giving them hope and personal awareness! I read hundreds of self help books a year, I have attended dozens of seminars and workshops and I also have a long list of certifications and training. That stuff brings me joy and satisfaction. I always strive to be the best I can and to help others do the same.
