Hi All

Imagine 3 circle across the page. The far right circle is formed with a perforated line – like a dash forming a circle. The middle circle is formed with a solid heavy line. The far left circle is formed with an even heavier line – let’s say it’s 3 times heavier - and has jagged arrows jetting out from it. It’s rather ominous looking.

Those circle represent the 3 states of human consciousness and interaction.

If our mind’s are in the state represented by the right circle – the perforated edge circle, it’s in the state of trust, appreciation, love and acceptance. Our pure thoughts and harmony can be felt by all, as those thoughts pass from us through the perforated edge of our being. We’ll call it the harmony circle.

However when we are in the middle circle state, the one with the thick line around it, no thoughts of love or purity pass out or in. It’s as if we were captured in a hardened capsule, drowning in our own thoughts and malaise. It’s not easy for love or kindness to enter from outside either, because we are caught up in our mind’s spin cycle of thought, pondering and negativity.

The circle on the left – the one with the ominous arrows extending from it, represents our state when we are angry, when we are blaming, when we are upset – and when we are letting our people have a piece of our minds – our off balance minds, to be sure. It’s when our fear or anger is spieling out. It can feel like we are surrounded by an electrified fence, ever giving off negative forms of energy, be it sorrow, rage, despair, anger, and frustration for us to deal with. Nothing good happens here. We’ll call this the self oppression circle.

The middle circle is an interesting one because the mind might use it to transition back and forth between the state of harmony and the state of self oppression. Or it may not – it may skip right over it. For example, we can be in a state of oppression, feeling miserable, when suddenly a best friend walks in unexpectedly. Or perhaps it’s a niece or grandchild you adore. Immediately the mind jumps from the oppression to the harmony state. Later when the child or friend leaves, the mind might go back to the middle state to continue it’s sulking and debating. Basically in that state of limbo, it is trying to decide if it will pull itself out to purity and harmony or go back to oppression.

Here’s the question for us all. What method will you use to pull yourself out of either the 2 disturbing circles and back into the harmony circle on the right? Perhaps you’ll use faith. Or perhaps you’ll use Tony Robbins principle – just look up in the air or change your physical position and your state will change. Or perhaps you’ll use the principles taught in Ho’oponopono that we discussed in a previous Manifest Moment, of saying ‘I love you, thank you etc.’ The important thing is to have a method and use it. But first you must be aware of your state at any given moment.

3 MINUTE ACTION TIP: First notice and recognize what state you’re in. This is necessary in order to change it, should we choose to. Therefore focus today on noticing which of the 3 states you are in and jot them down. At the end of the day, see how many times you were able to notice your states. By doing this, you will be able to choose your states with more and more ease.

Much love,
Christine
