Thank you for meditating!

Research shows that when many people meditate on earth it coincides with the decrease of violence and acts of war. This is totally natural and nothing that surprises anyone who followed up their studies with some dives into Quantum Physics.

It can’t be denied. We are all connected. Quantum physics is not a new science anymore and tells us that there is no separation in universe. A single separated event doesn’t exist. It’s all a continuous joint happening.

So the state in which you are will be your contribution to the collective weather you like it or not and the state in which other people are will contribute to your reality weather you like it or not. We are in this together.

If you meditate – thank you! You make life so much better for me. I will be sure to do my part and meditation and cultivate a peaceful mind as much as I can. I promise. For my sake and for your.

You create your world!

You create your world!

You create your world …and then worry about it.

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you are safe, there are friends and family around and you have money on the bank account but you still worry about not having enough in the future to be secure? Have that worry ever done anything good for you or your potential to be safe and secure?

When we strive for goals and objects we ruin the journey and the goal itself is turned into mind dust.

When we gain something we desired it is quickly turned into fear; fear of loosing it, fear of not getting that kick of acquiring again. So we turn to a new goal and strive. …and repeat.

We think possession makes us secure but it is the opposite since we desire them. They make us vulnerable.

The whipped cream on top of the mashed potato

There is usually another dimension added to this; we become addicts desiring desire itself. We desire desire because it provides a pleasant rush, a temporary kick. And as all addictions we get used to one level and need stronger desire – bigger challenges, higher goals, more pressure, bigger toys to feel the rush of desire. That restless strive never stops unless we stop it.

What to do?

What to do to make goals something helpful and not something that creates worry, lack, stress and pressure? How to allow abundance and happiness to become the predominate state of mind?

  • See things as they are; things are things and goals are fantasies. And with that insight all is enjoyable in the now not causing lack, or suffering like stress and pressure.
  • Have goals and things but don’t create desire for it. Have goals but create no expectations for it. Just do your best in this moment supporting the direction the goal points at. By the way, there will be no other moment for you to do that then now. Or another approach is to dream the goal and then forget about it. Instead trust that your intuition will guide you to receive what you desire.
  • Become aware of the sublime inner process when you create desire for desire and stop it with love. Is it possible to feel a pleasurable sensation without creating desire for it? That’s the kind of questions that helps us become free of worry.
  • Be present. And in this presence remind yourself of how you have what you need in this moment. See how you are supported in this moment. See things through the glasses of gratitude for while. These perspectives bring us back to truth. You are supported and have what you need in this moment in universe – because you exist.

EMOTIONS is not a baggage

EMOTIONS is not a baggage

EMOTIONS is not a baggage!

You can have all the emotions that you want in life! …and you will have the ones you don’t want also wether you like it or not.

Emotions is not a heavy baggage that you need to get rid of. It is just emotions – neither bad or good. Life through you don’t make a mistake when emotions arise. They are like the wind, the clouds and the rain – in symbiosis with all. But we can be aware of the reaction to them. Awareness of emotions is what takes you from being a victim to being a master of emotions.

Without awareness we are in reaction to emotion without knowing it. And when we are in reaction without knowing it; we are a victim to outer circumstances. This is why humanity seem to be creating the same unsustainable results again and again even though we know better – we are victims to the conditioned mind which creates emotions. We are run by emotions.

Emotions is created in you as a reaction to outer stimuli or to our thoughts. They are old conditioning and perfect for what they are. Sometimes they can help us and guide us, sometime they are not helpful at all. If aware, we can hold a loving space for those emotions and act according to our better knowing. I don’t always know what the “better knowing” is but then I can always ask; “What would love do?” and see what comes up. Regardless of what I do I can allow the emotions to be there just like I don’t try to get rid of clouds on the sky while eating.

Outer events and people trigger emotions, if aware of the emotion we can act, if not aware of the emotion we react. Maybe we find ourselves annoyed, angry, irritated sad or offended? If unaware we try to find the reason of that discomfort on the outside and in other people. And if the reason is outside we blame or try to solve the outside. This is a reaction. It may take away the dis-comfortable emotion temporary because it is overrun by the kick of the ego who feels its in charge and in control, but that is a very short-term state and the emotion will come back and the ego will find itself out of control and not in charge, because it isn’t. And the mind-pattern of that emotion is also strengthened by us opposing it and avoid it with all kinds of elaborate strategies like “thinking of something else”, “do something fun”, or finding the cause on the outside and blame or try to change the outer world.

If you find yourself in reaction to emotions or have very strong emotions there is helpful perspectives/methods. Here is one of them;

Perspective: Emotions as a child.

See the emotions as a small child. Sometimes the child reacts to something and gets upset. What do you do when the child comes running to you crying and upset? You pick it up and hold it lovingly and say that all is ok and confirm the emotion; “-its ok to be sad dear child.” And after a while the child will be done and see something else and run away playing with that like if nothing happened. No trauma/conditioning is caused that the child will carry along in life. Conditioning like having the perspective that the event that upset or the person is “bad” or that the feeling of sadness is “bad”. They still learned what is beneficial for them or not by the event. No reason to cause trauma.

Now, what would be the opposite? The child comes running crying again. But this time we see it as a heavy bad baggage and we appose it, we don’t want that crying child. So we slap that child over the cheek and say “stop crying, don’t be a sissy.” (This is how most people deal with emotions.) And maybe ask the child what happened and try to solve the “cause” for the sadness. Maybe another kid played with his/her favourite toy. We go there and try to force the toy out of the other kids hands. Traumas/conditioning is created or strengthened in everyone involved in that situation and will grow over time.

Healing emotional patterns?

Yes they heal by themselves with a loving non-judgmental attitude towards them. The conditioning withers away. Its like the child. All it longs for is to be loved. And when it gets loved it doesn’t have to be upset anymore, it feels secure. Over time approaching emotions in a loving way, they will heal, that is they don’t need to get upset to to get love. They are loved/love.

Below is a list of uncomfortable emotions that may help you if you want to confirm the child and what it is feeling exactly. Its from Byron Katies website thework.com. And if you want to get help relating to your strong emotions more mindfully shoot me an e-mail and order a coaching session and I will be happy to support you on your journey.

Have life ever happened in any other time and place then here and now? Not for me either. The mindful approach keeps us from ending up in the stories of the past or the future missing the real thing – Life.

The power of thought comes from the space surrounding it

The power of thought comes from the space surrounding it

Photo: Svetlana Fillipova Text: Jonas Faremo

Power of thought …comes from the space surrounding it.

Value the space more then the thoughts and with time the power is in you to give or relief thoughts power.

Thoughts is what creates our wor, makes us suffer and seperates us from reality/truth.

This is why meditation is the most powerful thing in humanity and why I want to inspire to more mindfulness in the lifes of conscious humans.
