What is a balanced life?
A balanced life involves positive emotions, a clear vision of goals, and a core foundation of family or friends that love and support you. Emotions can either be the seeds of positive growth or the weeds of self-destruction. Running on negative emotions is like filling your car with used motor oil and expecting it to run at its best. Practicing forgiveness (ho’popolo), tapping (www.thetappingsolution.com) and/or meditation is like giving your body an oil-changed and yanking the weeds out by the root. 
I personally do these things and it has changed my productivity, my attitude and automatically changed my thinking. It was 1 million times easier to be positive after my inner cleansing. You see, how can you expect the best when your body is carrying all that hurt from when you got the worst—all that luggage can’t come on THIS stand-by flight. When you’re ready pack light and bring only what you need. Only then will your life will take off….Next stop a clear vision of goals. The more clear your goal the less time it takes to get it. You can tame a lion with a four legged stool because he cannot focus on a particular leg. As a result, they stand frozen. Unfortunately, the same can happen to us when we try to focus on too many things—we freeze, or we might focus on the wrong things.
So choose your goals wisely. It can promote greater action for a balanced life. Now you cannot share your goals and dreams with everyone. I suggest if you don’t have a support group find one or share with a dreamer. It’s so uplifting to share with someone as equally driven or positive. Otherwise, anyone can cause you to doubt yourself and your mind does that enough for you (if you know what I mean). So talk to the people who love who will support them every day.
-With Love,
I Thank the three of you for starting this blog. I think people need to be aware that repressing emotions, which means we leave an emotion unprocessed, has a cost to us. By carrying all that extra weight it becomes impossible for us to soar. Like a large tethered balloon, we sense our ability to soar, but the weight of our baggage keeps us grounded, and very frustrated that we cannot do what is natural - soar. When we finally process our emotional baggage, our ability to soar pulls us upwards until we reach the place where we can soar. Once we do soar, we become unwilling to let anything keep us grounded for long.
ReplyDeleteLike you, I too have left much baggage behind utilizing various tools like the tapping modality. I learned it to help one of my clients be free her of her fear of abandonment. It would come into play whenever she got into a relationship. As her relationship deepened, she would become afraid that her boyfriend was going to leave, so she would just leave first. After one session, she was able to go to deeper levels in her relationships without any fears of being abandoned. I used an earlier version of the tapping called EFT to go through all the emotionally charged memories from my childhood and clear them. The difference was exponential. Without clearing that baggage, I would have never been able to soar. A good metaphor is that even with all our technology , a plane that is too heavy cannot become airborne.
