Hello and welcome to understanding the spirit of our humanness.
Today's discussion focuses upon the external expectations that are often placed upon us on life's journey.
This looks at expectations in the workforce,
In the way we socialise and interact,
And in the expectations of our culture and conditioning,
And how this can take away from us the deeper meaning of living life healthily and wealthily.
I use the definition of wealth on an emotional and mindful and physical level,
Not a material or monetary level.
This is an exploration for you to integrate in thought,
In your thinking,
In your ability to see,
To move your perception,
Where your mind has a choice to reprogram and then it is allowing yourself to digest a new concept or ideology and feel something different as the senses in the body begin to give you a message of what is right and what needs to change for you.
So together we pause for thought.
Right from the moment we are born there is a fixed expectation to meet health requirements,
Speech requirements,
Growth requirements,
Weight requirements.
The box is immediately presented and this expectation flows into the education system and we begin to identify with those markers and as we grow that can often govern our esteem,
Identity and worth.
As we move into adulthood these same markers,
Expectations,
Then flow into definitions of statue,
Social status,
Success.
We are defined in character by the external expectations to have something,
To achieve something,
To be something.
We value the material and the label.
Our personality,
Persona and definitions are governed by these structures and systems.
It has a profound cause and effect on how you think,
What you see and perceive and the way you think and see and perceive,
On how you feel.
It has a profound impact on your level of association and disassociation with yourself.
Seldom can you seek the true spirit when such structures separate you from your true self.
These extreme levels of external expectations strip away the quality of life.
Happiness,
Joy,
Health,
Wealth is the ability to live whole and complete in every given moment without an attachment to anything external,
Without an objective or goal.
The ability to live in peace,
Serenity and happiness is impacted around what you think,
See,
Perceive and feel.
The governance of such external expectations separates us from being able to relate to ourselves and others and from the planet,
Being in nature,
In oneness,
Just being,
Living fully in the moment without a want,
A need,
A worry or a doubt.
Our social and cultural expectations create a dis-ease in our body,
Mind and spirit.
As you pause for thought,
What expectations have you placed upon yourself?
What expectations have you taken from your education,
Your life experiences from others?
They're not yours,
They're somebody else's.
Do you live fully in the moment with a sense of freedom and joy?
Or is your sense of self and success and worth fixed on an external,
Social or cultural ideology that controls and contours your opinions and perceptions?
To truly be healthy,
To truly be wealthy is to really return to what you think,
To let go of the need to be or do.
You are born whole and complete.
Your life is to live in freedom,
To flow on a journey and to flourish in the experiences that come to you divinely.
Your senses are separated as you disassociate with these stressful diminishing systems.
To live a full life is to live by the laws of the spirit,
To honour your breath,
To see opportunities and wonder everywhere,
To know that you are divinely protected,
Looked after and cared for.
To read and respond to your own senses beyond the five sensory perceptions into the intuition as you spend more time out.
In retreat to pause for thought.
Life is to appreciate every given moment,
To make every effort to make that moment sacred,
A priority,
Filling life with what is important to you.
There is no need to prove anything,
For you have the power to define yourself.
So if right now you're not feeling as healthy as you would like to,
As whole as you would like to,
As wealthy on an emotional,
Mindful and physical level,
Then I invite you to pause for thought,
To integrate and digest the words that have been spoken,
To truly begin to come home to yourself,
To return to a way of being that is natural,
That allows you to have a greater level of emotional,
Mindful,
Physical,
Spiritual health and wellbeing,
Is to request divine intervention from the part of you that holds that power,
The divine part of you and request that you become the teacher of yourself and then ask the universe,
The spirit,
The divine power.
Ask for divine intervention on a universal level.
Request the assistance to return you to a more natural way of being,
Devoid of the stressors,
The expectations that have been falsely laid upon you that create the disease within the self and then make time to quest,
To enter silence,
Meditation,
Relaxation.
Pause for thought upon these words,
What they mean to you,
What they speak to you and then allow yourself to see differently,
To think differently,
To perceive differently,
To feel differently,
So you can understand the true spirit of your humanness and live by your own definition.
