Hello,
My name is Georgia Bazin and I'm a transformative coach,
Speaker and artist.
And this is a talk about what would love do?
So often when we come to a situation we try to put ourselves in somebody else's shoes and we ask ourselves what would so-and-so do in this situation?
What would he do?
What would she do?
And when we're trying to put ourselves in a situation in somebody else's shoes we're actually putting ourselves in our ideas of somebody else's shoes,
Not actually what that person is in their shoes because we can't possibly know actually what someone would do.
We're only ever guessing because we're guessing at what's going on in their mind or would go on in their mind.
And there's a place where inside ourselves if we stopped and went what would love do here?
That we access a different space within our knowing of who and what we are.
Because when I look at everything from what would love do here I'm free of the ideas of my filters,
My family,
My society,
My culture,
My conditionings,
The programs that run through me.
I'm in a far,
Far clearer place of simply what does love look like to me and what would love do here?
So if I'm confronted with a situation of somebody shouting at me or being abusive in any way,
When I'm sitting in a quiet place within myself of simply love what would you do here?
I come up with a very,
Very different answer and response than one in my ideas of somebody else or the busy mind that occupies so much of my living experience that would probably tell me well you need to use your temper or you need to do this or you need to do that because the mind is always trying to shore us up in what looks like a safe response and the most appropriate response to something because that's what the mind is doing it's assessing where am I safest here and so often it comes up with an aggressive response because that looks like it's going to match the aggression towards me so maybe that somebody will back down they'll choose something different if I look big and macho and whatever.
You see love is a very,
Very much quieter space and love responds very differently when we look that way because it may be somebody shouting at me if I look at them with love I see the fact that they're just a person in pain or a person who's upset or I see that they're filters off in how they look at life on the fact that maybe they just need a hug maybe they simply need to be told do you know I love you and it's okay to be angry or actually no it's not okay to be angry at me because this isn't about me at all your anger is about a space within yourself a space where actually you don't see that love exists in you something that a place in you that learned to respond from there rather than rather than the truth of who and what you are so if I'm asking what would love to hear in this moment of sitting with you as you listen to this I'd simply tell you I love you and not necessarily because that's about you because that is how I choose to turn up in the world to see that everybody deserves my love and not my judgment because my judgment will only ever ever do harm both to the person who judges and to me whereas looking from love it does both me and the receiver of my love the most wonderfully beautiful experience of living in that moment it does everybody good and I know it may sound very flippant to say what would love do but what does that question do to you when you sit with it you see I get to close my eyes and fall into a deeper place within myself with that question to a place in my heart and if that's available for me that's available for you so if every situation that you bump up against in the next few days you got to either physically or metaphorically close your eyes and ask what would love to hear I think you'd find you experienced life and the people around you very differently and every time we change our vibration we change the vibration of everything that we come to we experience everything from a new frequency we we live from a wholeness within ourselves when we ask that question as opposed to a feeling that we're not whole when we're responding from anger or jealousy or any other negative emotion that sits within us so I'd love you to notice how does my life change how does my life change when I ask what would love do here thank you for your time have a beautiful day bye
