You incline naturally toward pleasure and away from pain. Pleasure invites you to delight in the adventure of being alive. It frees life energy to move throughout your body and fuels your passion for life. Passion and enjoyment are essential motivating forces for energy, power and imagination. With them you live more fully in the present.

Emotions

Restrained emotions are the accepted perfect for public behaviour. Emotional numbness generates an armor that keeps us different in the world. We may deny pleasure and feel guilty for needing it. Guilt can be a teacher that moves us toward renewal and change. Or guilt can be a freak which restrains us from appreciating the gift of life. We may honor our deepest feelings or we might repress them. The decision is ours.

Listen to your deepest feelings as a message from the Self. The Self communicates with you through the language of feelings. They say that the Self’s desire to proceed. They guide you in making wise decisions. You have to remain in touch with your feelings to be aware of the needs of your Self. Passion is an intense emotion from deep inside. It fuels your own desires. It retains a strong energy to create. Desire and enthusiasm shape your life and who you become. They align you with your Self and internal Genius.

Choix

You’re an infinite choice-maker. You make decisions moment-by-moment. Each choice says the value you put on your Self. The program is simple. Focus on your feelings. Follow your passions – the desires of your heart. Honor the Self and release your inner Genius. Embrace continuing change while maintaining a balanced center.

Life is a balancing act. We experience push-pulls between the needs of the heart as well as the pressures of the world. Our astounding creativity arises from these dynamic tensions. Times of change and disease allow space for our creative potential to blossom. They bring confusion. But they also provide opportunity for renewal and growth. What matters is how we react. The process of change contributes to transformation. It enables us to grow our potential and change ourselves and our planet.

Se souvenir

Change requires both external and internal motion within the body. The expression of motion and emotion are crucial for the body’s well-being. Restricting either one stops the flow of energy. And the flow of energy throughout the body restores balance. Practice awareness of your feelings every day. Channel the energy of powerful emotions into motion such as walking or cleaning. Choose practices that release energy and restore your inner balance. Set healthy boundaries that let you nurture yourself and others.

A balanced center requires the capacity to nurture the Self and others. This balance isn’t static but is open to change and flow. Needs aren’t idle longings. They are essential for our well-being. You have to take responsibility to meet them. As example, you will need time to just relax and enjoy life-sometimes on your own and sometimes with others. Often you may feel guilty taking time for yourself. But time alone isn’t a luxury. Only in solitude can you understand your true Self.

Conclusion

Only in quiet time can you understand your deepest feelings. When you are feeling relaxed and refreshed, you’re more loving to others. Guilt impedes the flow of energy and takes the pleasure out of what you’re doing. A wholesome sense of guilt tells you where your emotional boundaries are. It guides you to make excellent choices. Love for yourself and others requires a delicate balance of giving and receiving. It’s a paradox that love is our Divine nature and love is our greatest lesson to learn. As you select ways to honor your deepest feelings, include emotion and movement, whenever possible. Consider walks alone in character – sometimes called open eye meditations. They let you reconnect with Earth and the inner You. They affect your mood, your immune system and the self you’re becoming. Science tells us these magic effects are real. Nature’s energy flows through you and transforms you. You come back to the world refreshed and ready to talk about your gifts.
