Taking Care of Yourself through Transforming Stress.

Learning how to take care of ourselves involves making appropriate distinctions about ourselves, others and life in general. One distinction that is crucial for our well being is realizing how and from where much of our stress is primarily generated. While some of the stressors that we face are apart of what it is to be a human being, much of the stress that we experience is of our own creation. A great deal of the stress that we experience has its origin in our own personal story and the meaning we make about life, in the thoughts that we think. Once we understand that we are truly the cause in the matter, that we are responsible for the thoughts that we create or invent and that it is from these thoughts that much of our stress is generated, then and only then will we begin to be able to truly manage our stress and have the power to live the life that we want and love. Blaming others or situations for that which we experience will only limit our power, lead to frustration and eventually a great deal of stress.

Reflections on a Passing.

It has been four weeks now since my mother passed.  The emotions that I have experienced have been many.  I miss her greatly and will mourn awhile longer, this I know.  She was a woman who meant so many things to me, a mother, a friend, a soul that I could have intense conversations with about many things, including transformative topics.  I will miss my talks with her as well as my knowing that she is there for me in so many ways.

The passing of my mother has made me think about a lot of things.  My mortality for one, somehow knowing that my death is very real and something that I will eventually experience.  I was there to watch her leave this realm of existence, when she took her last breath.  I know that we are not immortal in this sense, that I too shall past at some point.  I am now much more present to his fact. Some of us forget this point, or do not consider it, and as a result live our life as if we will live forever.

Such insight and awareness has gotten me to again reevaluate my purpose for being here, on this planet and as a human being.  More than even I know that we are just renting everything that we have materialistically, that we own nothing, and that what matters, truly matters, is other people, to be of service, specifically.  The highest purpose of a human being is to be of service to others. All we have is this and our love for others, it is all that truly matters.  To live our life as if we will live forever is to miss the point.  We must die before we die, as Tolle wrote.  As mother once told me about my father, my father passing two years before her, he did not even take his pajamas with him.

Taking suggestions is one of the keys to recovery and transforming your life.

Our tendency is to continue in the direction that we are headed.  Our tendency is to continue in the direction that we are headed unless something happens that will create a necessity to alter our chosen path.  Once we pause to contemplate the direction that we are headed and begin to consider a possibility our life we do enter a space of true change and transformation.  For us to utilize the insight that is generated from this space will require that we seek the assistance of another person, of another human being.  If we do not seek the assistance of another person our tendency will be to get back into the habitual way of being from which we came, that created our current life situation.  This requires that we communicate with another person and allow that individual to help direct us, to assist us in our journey.  No recovery or transformation takes place unless we communicate with another human being.  To gain the benefits of this communication requires that we take suggestions from another human being.
