Are You as Happy as a Pig in Mud?
There is a huge movement these days to become more self aware, a ‘Wellness Revolution’; appreciation and preservation of the self, through mindfulness and yoga, diet, and a wealth of holistic therapies.
All this is well and good to keep you firing on all cylinders. But when you return to the real world, the day to day living, your job, your toddlers, your turbulent teens, the TV, the Internet, Facebook, Linked In, Google, Shopping, Coffee! Rising prices that strain your purse strings, that cause the average person at some time in their life unbelievable amounts of stress, that challenges the ‘hour of power‘ and sends you hurtling towards the cupboard and the ‘hour of power’ ends up curled on the sofa with a new age wine glass that holds half a bottle!
Wellness Gurus
All the ‘wellness gurus’ give you the ability to heal Mind and Body, but is it really giving you ‘Self Awareness’ or just giving you a temporary plaster, do you really know your subconscious nature? The bit of you that dictates your natural and illogical responses.
You can’t help yourself feeling the way you do especially if you are pressured into a state of mind that goes against the grain – Your Grain – not someone else’s.
If you watch toddlers together, interacting with each other you will notice certain behaviours.
You will notice the child that is reticent and holds back tending not to join in, you will notice the one that takes all the toys from others, just because they can, you will notice the chancers, those that hold back but watch and when the opportunity arises will jump on the next available ride on toy, you will notice the ones that are content to draw or play with reality toys and not really bother with all the doing stuff and you may notice the builders, those that like to stack building blocks, or boss others into doing everything, just so.
You may also notice, if you are a parent, that your offspring, even though you’ve brought them up in the same way, with the same values, environment and even food, will often behave quite differently from each other.
Why we believe Behaviour is Hard-Wired
So why is this? Even when there are no significant outside influences, a young child will show certain personality traits that are, we believe, hard-wired, so that these traits grow with you. We believe that these natural behaviours form and shape your life’s development and are the key to learning and is where your comfort zone exists.
Your true nature is where you perform at your best, if you understand your true nature, if you become truly self aware and aware of the nature of others around you, including your children and how best to educate them, then your interactions and relationships with others becomes proportionate to your life and well being, much more so because being driven out of your comfort zone to experience the magic of life, will stop being a life-long issue.
Because the magic of life happens when you fully understand where your subconscious strengths lie, your comfort zone, and how to make it work for you.
