This is a republished article from June 26, 2013… So please don’t get alarmed… this didn’t just happen. It happened long time ago. But the message is as timely as ever…
What is the opposite of reaction; is it response? Is it pro-active? Prepare to be surprised…
Gurus and even psychologists give lip service to not being reactive. They say it’s the ego’s way to take over your life. They suggest that you respond. They don’t know what they are talking about, and you, the client, suffer as a result.
Cats are notoriously individualistic, and abhor being herded, or even told what to do.
Your (and) my aspects are like cats: enjoying and protecting their freedoms you have given them all these years, that you thought they were the boss. Your boss.
I am talking here of the aspects of your mind, your emotions, your thoughts, and your urges.
Make a list of areas where wanting, your wanting dominates the situation. Where you are in the situation purely or mostly because you want something.
What can you want? What do you want? How to find it? Look for where you want
love?
attention?
friendship?
sex?
money?
Where does the truth I write come from? Stream of consciousness.
I write the largest chunks of surprising truths that way. Something triggers it, and there it comes… Quick, to the computer!
I read Kathryn’s comment on the Worry article, and something clicked.
Everyone says: you need to remove your filters. You need to remove blockages. Bad beliefs, about yourself and the world. It’s not working. Not for anyone… ok, maybe a few.
What if the reason no one is succeeding with those “techniques” is because that is not the right method to do it?
A few years ago I found myself attracted to a healing modality, the Healing Codes. I heard the testimonial about the little boy healed from Leukemia. It had relevance to me: I was worried about an angry red pulsating mole-like growth on my arm. Going to a doctor was out of the question, dying didn’t appeal to me, so I chose instead to attempt some self-healing.
One of my commitments to you, my dear fellow-human, is to give you a complete and thorough picture on the state of self-actualization/raising your vibration, self-improvement industry, as truthfully, as honestly as I possibly can. One of the tools I have in my arsenal is muscle testing (kinesiology), and another one is my principle in life: Question Everything. Especially if I have a vested interest in being right… To be able to deliver the truth about Trivedi ‘s programs, I signed up to his monthly enhancement program
Hello Sophie- I’ve been reading your post about raising your vibration- but how do you activate original self? You got me curious now! Amy * Hello Sophie, We’ll since talking with you, about a day after, I got very irritated. Everything was annoying and making me mad. I was thinking of old issues with people and why I thought they were wrong or how mean they treated me. I was surprised at all of this because I thought I had moved on from these memories.
Yesterday I had a marathon call with a student. It went almost three hours.
She paid for 15 minutes… and we only ended it after almost three hours, because she needed to use the bathroom and walk the dog… I was still ready to continue.
What made we want to talk to her this long?
The answer is obvious to me, but maybe not that obvious to you, so let me explain.
In every conversation you have the opportunity to observe yourself, and catch yourself in some machine-like reaction. Every time it’s a gift.

What is self-awareness? Is it feeling what you feel, thinking what you think, doing what you do, and knowing you are doing, feeling, thinking that?
I think self-awareness is beyond that, self-awareness is a positional shift for the self that is aware. Positional meant in a physical sense, in a physical movement of the vantage point.
It is one thing to feel from inside the body, and it’s another thing from observing it, as the body feels what it feels.
If there are words to the feeling, then it is the Mind that is attempting to label the experience… but your Self is NOT your mind, it is not even near your mind. You also, the moment your mind labels the experience, stop feeling, and now consider the word as the experience, instead… Much like eating the menu in a restaurant, not the meal. I have watched people doing that…

From the questions you ask, I am starting to understand what is your current world-view, self-view:
You think you are, using car analogy, a Kia or a Saturn or some other cheap car, and you want to be a Ferrari.
What if you are a Ferrari and you drive yourself as if you were a Kia?
