For those in need of a free therapy session.
Did you follow our soulful return content series last week? Here is a continuation.
Last week, we looked at how we support you strengthen your foundation. We started on building your clarity room. Next, we shall embark on building your observation deck
Think of it like this: you are standing in the middle of a busy marketplace, that’s your mind. Thoughts are shouting at you from every direction, emotions are pulling you this way and that, and you are trying to navigate through the chaos while being part of it. The observation deck is like stepping onto a balcony above that marketplace. Suddenly, everything becomes clear. You are still aware of the noise below, but it doesn't consume you.
Here's your first tool: the Sacred Pause. When you notice yourself getting swept away by thoughts or emotions, say 'pause' internally. Take three conscious breaths. Ask yourself: 'What am I observing right now?' This simple practice begins to create that crucial space between you and your mental activity.
Try this today. Notice when your mind starts spinning a story, and practice stepping onto your observation deck. Remember, you are not trying to stop the thoughts; you are learning to watch them like clouds passing through the sky.
How does it feel to step back and observe rather than being consumed?
