Honoring Your
Choices Leads to Peace Within Yourself
Each person
has a different path. Depending on your
choices, you create scenarios of what you want to learn in this life.
You have to go within to determine the right
action for yourself.
Different perceptions
and experiences lead to different beliefs of what is right or true for you in all aspects of your life.
There are
obvious truths like don’t kill or steal.
However, if it’s in self defense or self preservation maybe it’s
right.
You have to be okay with your
action in the moment and be willing to live with the outcome of your
actions.
Knowing you did the best you could in the moment,
honoring your own choices so that you can be at peace with you, leads to peace
within yourself.
Perhaps at
one point in your life you need to learn self acceptance, and at another point
in your life you have to learn to deliberately choose for yourself a path that is
easier in a worldly sense. This is where
wisdom comes in, realizing it’s about you and your choices, and what outcomes
you believe are right for you.
Integrating
what the head knows to be true along with what the heart knows to be true is
most important. The logic is in the faculties
of the mind and the feelings are in the heart.
Integrate both in decision making to make the best choice for you.
The mind and
the heart know it’s not right to physically hurt others. If you punch someone that’s not right action;
however, if you did it in self defense it is right.
If you randomly hurt others, just because you
were angry etc., it does not make it right and you are actually hurting
yourself. Your heart can’t be lied
to. You will be physically constricting
the energy within yourself and in some way your physical body will be suffer
the repercussions of your actions.
If
your action was in self defense your heart knows you had to protect you.
Perhaps you
are in a place where you need to learn to just choose from the mind to make an
appropriate decision, like don’t steal, it leads to jail. Maybe you
need to sacrifice the judgment on stealing food if you were feeding others. Making the decision from
the heart would is an entirely different approach.
The wisdom would be in integrating the two;
however, you need to judge the right action for yourself in the moment, honor you
self in it and be at peace with the consequences of your actions. Think it out.
Others will always have an opinion, you don’t need to convince them
yours is right, unless you are confronting a jury. You need to maintain peace
within you.
The heart choices tend to require more faith
as each person cannot explain their heart as it makes no logical sense. The head choices require more will power - knowing the deliberate action you must take
for what you believe is the right action.
Integrating
the two and realizing both are important creates more balance. Are you needing to learn surrender from your
head or your heart, or integration of both?
Neither one side nor the other side is right, they will both lead to
different results.
What can you
live with and what do you hold important to you? This is what will lead to peace in the
outcome. What is right for you in the
moment is what matters and that you learn from that choice how to honor
yourself and your place of being.
Bottom line;
enjoy your journey and what you are learning.
Relax into your decisions for you, you are the only thinker in your
universe that can control your thoughts.
Your actions result in the outcome of your reality.

This reminds me of the "listen to your heart or your mind".... in either case- I agree with you enjoy the journey!

This, to me, is the explanation of the origin of dis-ease. When the head (thoughts) and heart (emotions- or soul) are out of alignment, the body pops a symptom. It's a warning: "listen, and work it out". You can't do two opposite things at the same time!
ReplyDeleteWhen you hate your body, and wish you looked differently, it's stressful. The body feels unsafe, and will often gain more weight to "protect" itself. Stress will prevent permanent weight loss as well.
And, the other way to heal yourself is with forgiveness- to others, and to yourself!
wonderful article!
This is the origin of disease, which is dis-ease. The symptoms are warnings for us to pay attention. You've absolutely seen the play with weight, now, it's in every part of our lives. When I work with someone I look for the issue behind the disease, if it's hating your body, the question is why and it leads to so many different interpretations for different people.
DeleteYou're so on track!!! Kudos to you!! Your work with these people is great! Thanks Lianda for reading and getting the message I'm hear to convey:
"Consciously Disperse Dis-Ease to Avoid or Dissolve Disease" - Dr. Samantha Joseph
Very wel written! We should al listen to ourselves (and our intuition) more, also when making smaller choices.
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda! Absolutely in every part of your life, follow that inner guidance.

This is something that I am still trying to practice. As someone who most of them time did what others wanted, I am now learning to follow my heart and do what I want to do. Thanks for the reminder.
ReplyDeleteGood job Adrienne, use your wisdom and integrate both head and heart so that it is a wise choice for you in each situation. Sometimes we have to sacrifice something for the betterment of all, but there is still a good feeling within that. If the good feeling isn't there, don't do it as it is not right within you and you'll have resentment.
DeleteBest wishes on your journey.

One of my favourite quotations is from Hamlet, 'to thine own self be true,' and I believe this is a heart/head thing - we have to take notice of both to know what is truly right. One of my biggest revelations was learning that I could control my thoughts and then being able to ask the question, 'what do I choose?' Having a choice is real freedom but we only have that choice when we know that we do. Hope that makes sense! Glad I visited, thanks.
ReplyDeleteHarriet, thanks for contributing. Lets keep those wonderful revelations in our lives coming.
