Awakening To Change: How To Stop Reinforcing Stuck Patterns

With Kiran Patel

In this course, we take a look at how monotony is an illusion as are the stuck patterns we can find ourselves in. When we take the time to slow down and become more aware of the wonder that surrounds us in the present moment we can unlock the fluidity and flexibility that exists in every one of us that can catalyze the changes we wish to make.

Lesson 1

The Illusion Of Monotony: Discovering The New In The Familiar

We can be forgiven for falling into the trap of thinking that our lives are monotonous and that we are stuck with who we are and the habits we have formed. It is in taking a fresh look at how we view our world and ourselves that we come to see that change is a constant and the routines we face can be transformed when we move into the present moment.

Lesson 2

Seasons Of Change: Embracing Life’s Constant Evolution

Here we explore what it means to become aware of the shifts that are occurring within us and our emotional states. We can move through life on autopilot and we cease paying attention to our own wants and needs. Yet if we take some time to connect with our breath and the moment we are in we can become attuned to our internal compass.

Lesson 3

Breaking The Cycle: Why We Stay Stuck And How To Break Free

We may have changes we wish to make but we never seem to be able to achieve them. The reason this may be the case is that we spend so much of our time reminding ourselves constantly of who we think we are and what we think is possible for us. We need to loosen our attachments to our identities to open the door to change.

Lesson 4

The Clean Slate: Rewriting Your Story

Every day we awaken to a new opportunity and a clean slate. We carry with us ideas about how we are and we remain loyal to those beliefs even when they don't serve us. In this lesson, we look at how we can choose any aspect of change that we desire and rewrite our stories in a way that serves us and fulfills our wishes.

Lesson 5

Mindfulness: Slowing Down To See The Truth

As we have progressed we have witnessed through our meditations how slowing down and taking in the present moment allows us to become observers of our thoughts and emotions and enables us to cultivate the skill of not being so reactive. This empowers us to be able to continue on our path of change and not give up.

Lesson 6

A New Beginning Every Day: Cultivating Lifelong Awareness

In this final lesson, we bring together all that we have learned and practiced. We see the power we hold that can be found in this present moment that we can access through our breath and our senses and we understand that we can redirect our brains to help support us in the changes we are making.

This course is a great example of “when the student is ready, the teacher appears.” I have struggled all my adult life to make changes to improve my emotions and physical health. My strategy has been to keep trying outside-in approaches and hoping something would stick. A few years ago I began looking inward. I learned that I am not broken and do not need to be fixed. This course gave me the critical missing piece of information that I no longer need to hold onto my old identity just because it has been that way for decades. In this and every new moment I get to choose who I want to be. Of course I have heard that so many times but this time it made an impact. I have been set free. I am sincerely grateful. Thank you.
