Coming Home To Who You Truly Are - April 08

There is nothing like coming home to yourself, to who you truly are. In today's 5 Minutes in Nature, Liz is out on Dartmoor, delighted to be back home after a few days away. She realises that this is a similar feeling to what she felt when she returned home spiritually after coming across the Three Principles.

Transcript

Hello and welcome to five minutes in nature with me Liz Scott back home on Dartmoor. I've been away as you know for a few days enjoying Dorset and I've had such a wonderful time exploring a different county but there's nothing like coming home and I'm up on the moorland beside me there's a sheep grazing and I can just see above me on the hill there's a tiny lamb snuggled up around a hillock fast asleep just enjoying a little bit of respite I think it's a bit of a blowy old day and I'm huddled behind a thicket of gorse bushes they're very spiky thorny bushes and I can see some fresh growth coming through I'm just touching it now and these will become thorns not too in the not too distant future but right in the moment these are soft green new growth that's so gentle and smooth to the touch and today is a little reflection on what it is like to come home and that feels very pertinent to me as I reflect on my life and on my journey in life as well when I came across something called the three principles it's also known as the inside out understanding and you can find a course on it here on insight time and an introduction to the three principles when I came across the three principles it felt like I was coming home it's the same feeling I had when I came back home here to Dartmoor that sense of familiarity of being in relationship being connected connected to the landscape connected to my home connected to the people in my village and when I came across the inside out understanding as the three principles is also described I felt like I was coming home spiritually internally I've been a seeker for a long long time in my world I've explored many different things lots of self-development personal development things like neurolinguistic programming and I've explored EFT I've done mediation I've explored meditation and all of it has been a wonderful step on my journey in life and all of it gave me some relief but when I came across the three principles or the inside out understanding I had a sense of coming home it had a a real sense to it that I at last was looking in the right direction now what I realized with many of the other spiritual paths that I've followed many of the other things that I've engaged with is that they had all in some ways pointed in the same direction but there was something about the simplicity of the message of the inside out understanding that landed and for me it's this simple message that I see as true and whenever I slip up or stumble or feel a little bit lost the central message is I am deeply okay I'm deeply okay and I'm a human being that gets lost in thoughts and stories and I have my wobbles those are the two very simple messages that I keep coming back to time and time again and when I say I'm deeply okay I'm not looking at this body shell of Liz that's okay I'm looking much more deeply at the energy behind life that energy conscious energy universal energy that powers everything and is everything I am okay at that level because that is who I truly am and the same is true for you at that level you are deeply okay because you are the conscious energy of life itself taking form in your body and it's really helpful to know that because we're in these bodies and because we're human and we have a brain and intellect that we create thoughts and stories and thought storms come through and our moods change and the world seems to change around us but it's okay that can happen we don't have to fix it or get rid of it it's just realizing that at the core of our being we are okay and when I came across that message it really landed for me and for me it felt very much like I was coming home let me know your reflections on what you're hearing today and of course don't forget to join me again tomorrow for another five minutes in nature

Reviews

I’m not familiar with the three principles. Sounds interesting Liz. This is a tricky one for me because I still consider England my home despite living in America for many years. However, this is where I have built my life, and it’s a good life. I definitely feel more in my element when I am in my own home. More grounded and secure with a deeper sense of belonging, but I feel my heart is in two places which does unsettle me sometimes.

Thank you 💖🙏

Welcome home fellow seeker. It is a nice feeling to come back to the familiar. I have moved a lot over my years and at Younes it felt disconnected for sense of place was disturbed.

May way back home was going within through meditation and nature. I can be home anywhere.

Thanks Liz. ✌️❤️😌

I have a real desire to learn about this. It sounds like, from what you share, an understanding that makes sense to me.
