Mirror Mirror on the Wall.....

“Life is your mirror – What you see as your outside.  Always comes from your inside!” Unknown

…… yes I hear you - these wise and insightful words are not so easy to swallow when we find ourselves confronted with a situation that completely rocks our world!  So how about we start of by taking a few little baby steps into this reasoning and see how we go.

For example, if we think about a common experience I’m sure most of us who drive share - being cut off in traffic, We might ask ourselves “how is it that some idiot cutting me off in traffic is about something that is coming from within???”  Ponder this if you will, maybe just maybe it is the ANGER you hold inside of you that has attracted a circumstance to cause you ANGER.   In this particular example it is getting cut off in traffic, yet if you use your imagination there are no doubt a myriad of episodes both major and minor that could trigger your anger …… rude shopping assistant, people pushing in front of you in a queue, having to wait to be served in a restaurant when you are time short, truly the list is inexhaustible! 

If we look at our experiences in this way it really is less about what is happening to us and more about what is happening within us!  What if we really are all simply energy magnets!  This would mean the energy of our beliefs, thoughts and feelings is what is running the show of our lives.   

If we choose to believe this concept about life we can begin to see our daily situations in a completely different light.  We can drop the dramas and stories that are going on around us and focus in on what it is that we have been thinking and feeling to create any particular situation.  Shift and transform the energy that is restrictive or harmful and project from within us out to the world feelings and situations we wish to receive.

As a Holistic Counsellor I have adopted this outlook (from Adore Holistic Counselling – 7 Living Essentials) and found that by looking in the mirror my path is clearly illuminated with what I need to know about myself in order to heal, grow and live life to the fullest in the flow.
