Do We Have To See It To Believe It?

I was in the park with my baby yesterday, and I don’t know if you have ever seen them, but there are two big metal flowers a few metres apart and two people stand at either end and you can hear each other talking through the metal tube.

My daughter Aria had her back to me and her dad and talked to us, and then started shouting for us as though we were stuck inside the tube.

Even though we were stood right there, she just couldn’t see us in that moment!

She was so convinced we were inside that tube, and even though it was funny to see, it made me think of the many people who get in touch with me and do not believe they have innate wellbeing.

They believe they are somehow broken, worse than everyone else and so much more.

Its the same as what Aria was doing, their thoughts are not true about themselves, but they are so focused and fixated on what they believe to be true in that moment, that they really see the thoughts to be true.

If they just looked in the other direction, turned around and saw the bigger picture, they would see that their innate wellbeing was there all the time they were just looking in the wrong direction! 

I wanted to share this as your little reminder to see the true nature of thought, and as much as thoughts feel true in any moment, they are only ever a perception, a small part of any bigger picture, and if we take a step back, pause and get quiet we will see there is so much more to see.

If we remain open minded rather than fixating on what we ‘think’ to be true we will all feel the freedom and relief attached to seeing more, just as Aria did when she realised mum and dad were not stuck inside a tube! Phew! 

If you want to look more in the right direction and explore with an open mind you can start with one of my 3 Day Mini Courses here.
