Only you can save the world, because the world you think you
see is in your mind. Your thinking makes the reality you live in. It is the reality you live in. Change your
thinking, and the world will reflect the changes back to you.
We all experience this truth at times, but the implications
are too vast and unsettling for us to believe it entirely or for long. It is
however perfectly practical to change your thinking a little at a time, and see
the world differently as you do so. You have been doing it since you were born,
calling it learning or growing up. Your external reality has
been continually changing, though you never seriously or consistently imagined
that this was anything to do with your thinking. On the contrary, we suppose
that our thinking reflects the way the world is, rather than the other way
around. In fact, as we grow up we change our thinking a little at a time so as
to believe all the more in the reality of the world and in its immutable laws
and its power over us.
But we can also practice believing less and less in the
reality we have constructed for ourselves, and by thinking differently a little
at a time come to experience the world differently. If the usual trend is to
lose our innocence as we get older, we can also reverse that direction and
regain it. If we can learn to be suspicious of others and to act a part, we can
also unlearn mistrust and defensiveness and return to love as a guiding
principle.
If you are thinking that what you need now is a new magical
solution, because all others have failed you, maybe the only true solution is
to change your mind about what you are, what the world is and why you are here.
Only You Can Save the
World
From January 2014 in a new series of monthly workshops you
can explore how to change your thinking little by little; acquire a good set of
psychological tools to solve problems and change your life; make the most of
your self, your circumstances and your relationships. See the previous post for details and for revised dates.
One day free introductory workshop:
Saturday 30th
November
Inward Focus, Self
Hypnosis: how to do it, when to use it
As a special introduction to the new workshop series starting in
January 2014, here is a FREE one-off
master class in the art of inward focus and self-hypnosis.
These techniques for inspiration and self-determination will be developed further in the workshops, but even on their
own they are invaluable for relaxing at will, relieving stress and dealing with
upsets, achieving goals, renewing energy and coming up with creative ideas and
solutions when you want them.
Numbers are limited, so if you would like to come along or
know anyone else who might be interested, let me know before October 31st 2013
by email anna@unlearningschool.com
or phone 01264 395579.
