Mind Questing takes you to unutilized aspects of the mind where new potency and creativity is available for your use.  We presently use such a limited amount of our intelligence.  Each one of us has access to an unlimited mind field of potential.  Unfortunately, as creatures of conditioning we are taught how to think and then we simply rethink and redo all that was cultivated.  We work and exist in a small section of the landscape of our mind, never venturing to explore the boundless lands of our human potential.  Mind Questing is a process of journeying beyond the fences of your upbringing.

 

It is the process of quieting the mind to see the guardrails that have been crafted around your thinking.  It takes courage to begin to ask why?  Why do I think this is true?  Who taught me that? Are these teachers and influencers really a reliable source?  Is this information actually meaningful and helpful in my life?  Can I just eliminate it as an active thought process that is contributing to my decision making?

 

These are the questions necessary to begin the Questing.  You want to find a clear and untainted space in the mind to reflect and access your own wisdom.  Until you can find the silent space in your mind, you won’t be able to approach clear wisdom, you will always simply be replaying your conditioning.  So step one to the art of Mind Questing is maneuvering through brain rubble to the oasis of silent sands.

 

Self Discovery Coaching is a great way to get help with Mind Questing.

The Garden of Eden

Return to Eden By Tina Heathers   Most religions have their own version of the creation story.  We all want to know where we came from and who we really are.

By Tina Heathers

 

Most religions have their own version of the creation story.  We all want to know where we came from and who we really are. The bible story of the Garden of Eden is known by many people.  But how many actually believe it is a literal truth?  Probably not many.  Was it just a story to explain where we came from because our existence needed to have a beginning?

 

Did we really reside with God in a beautiful garden living peacefully?  We apparently existed in harmony with the animals and God himself.  And then we choose to know more, to desire knowledge over peaceful bliss.  The essence of human nature is our curiosity and need to understand through experience.  So did the God of this Garden of Eden,  that created our curious nature, really kick us out because of it?

 

Or was there actually some deeper truth hidden within a simple tale?  Could it be that we are blessed with the right to choose, and that our curious nature leads us into situations that we can learn through first hand experience?  Perhaps we are just not content with peaceful bliss, we want to know all the possibilities of human nature, and therefore choose the road of experience so that we can feel and know it for our selves.

 

I am thinking that the story of Eden is a metaphor for our natural condition.  Perhaps we originally did reside in peaceful bliss with God.  And yet, we choose to experience life for our selves.  Many enjoy their trip through life and all the rich, meaningful experiences it has to offer.  Others want to know all adventures, even dark ones, no matter what the outcome.  They will choose tragic choices and venture down the road to despair and yet they seem to be willing to accept the pain for the privilege of the experience.  We all know people who make what we would classify as ridiculous choices, knowing they will get themselves into trouble.  And yet these people make those choices even when anyone could see the result.  It is almost as if they want the tragic outcome, as if they want the experience regardless of the fallout.

 

If so, then everyone is are welcome to experience the life of their choosing. After all, if this God who created us is fine with us tripping down some dark and painful alleys, why should we interfere with those around us who are seeking challenging adventures?  Perhaps we should mind our own business and allow each other to taste the sweet and salty, or bitterness of life as they so chose.

 

What if we are also welcome to return to Eden anytime we wish,  to once again reside in peaceful bliss?  What if the Garden of Eden is a state of mind and this Peace resides within us?

 

Meditation

 

Through meditation I have learned to go inside myself and awaken  a quiet, blissful and peaceful state of mind.  In this place I feel happy, content, worry free,  and as if everything is right in the world.   Have I returned to Eden? Perhaps if we returned to the mental state symbolized by the Garden of Eden on a more regular basis,  we would be able to live a life more in line with the simple beautiful conditions we generally associate with Eden.

 

I guess we wont know until we try.  I love meditation and the wonderful benefits it brings to my life.  But what if meditation is so much more than learning to relax and de-stress?  What if this simple tool actually awakened a completely different way of interacting with the world?  What if meditation and silencing the questioning mind was actually the gateway to return to the garden of Eden?

 

Definitely worth experimenting with the idea, don’t you think?

Open Your Mind

You may discover that one of the most limiting factors to your success is that you just cannot see any alternatives to the situation you are in. Your mind has been so conditioned that you truly believe you are stuck and must continue down this same path. The first step in transforming your life is … Continue reading “Open Your Mind”

Open your mind jpegYou may discover that one of the most limiting factors to your success is that you just cannot see any alternatives to the situation you are in. Your mind has been so conditioned that you truly believe you are stuck and must continue down this same path. The first step in transforming your life is to open your mind. You need to allow new possibilities to drift in, or to surface from within you. We have infinite potential to live in wonderful and inspiring ways….the problem is we just don`t believe it. It seems everyone around us is just content with life the way it is so we should be as well.

 

Only when we decide to break free of our limited mind set will we be able to get a new idea, a new vision for how we could live differently. Start by telling yourself every day that you have no idea who you really are and how you want to live your life. Daydream; allow possibilities to float through your mind. No need to analyze and critique them just practice possibility thinking.

 

The more free thinking you do the more possibilities can come to you. We have wisdom within us and  infinite possibilities  for our lives.  Allow new ideas  to take hold and create a sense of inspiration.  One idea will soon become strong and dominant and you will want to act on it.   Still allow all the other possibilities to continue to drift through your mind to keep new doors open as you put this particular idea into play.

 

If you live your life constantly acting out the new possibilities that take hold and ring true for you, you will discover you are living a passionate and fulfilling life.

Infinite Personal Potential

What is infinite personal potential?  It is the original mind, the one full of all possibilities.  It contains the full bag of quantum variables.  And then life happens, and the people you meet, the circumstances you choose and the beliefs you accept, all begin to shape and select the path of your life and who … Continue reading “Infinite Personal Potential”

infinite potential artWhat is infinite personal potential?  It is the original mind, the one full of all possibilities.  It contains the full bag of quantum variables.  And then life happens, and the people you meet, the circumstances you choose and the beliefs you accept, all begin to shape and select the path of your life and who you become.  Without our realization the primary people in our childhood are implanting ideas and choosing our reality for us.

 

What if you could overcome your limited upbringing and tap back into your original mind?  What if all the possibilities still exist in the quantum field and you could call them back in?

 

By entering the silence, dropping out of all your conditioned thoughts, you can quiet the implanted beliefs and go beyond the present refinement of who you are.  Here you can access your original infinite potential.  Here you can see and feel opportunities that may be different than you are presently experiencing.  From here you can change the outcome of your life.  You can reinvent yourself if you so choose, or just alter your path slightly to bring about better circumstances.

 

Learn to tap into your infinite personal potential and watch your life shift and grow into a fulfilling and joyful experience.

 

“Mind is the Master-power that moulds and makes,

And Man is Mind, and evermore he takes

The tool of Thought, and, shaping what he wills,

Brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills:

He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass: 

Environment is but his looking-glass.”

James Allen

The Light Within

The infinite potential you seek is within you.  It resides there as it always has.  It is like a light that will show you the path to your happiness, joy and prosperity.   It is necessary to find some quiet time to listen for the wisdom contained within this light.  But it is very difficult to find when we … Continue reading “The Light Within”

Discover Your LightThe infinite potential you seek is within you.  It resides there as it always has.  It is like a light that will show you the path to your happiness, joy and prosperity.

 

It is necessary to find some quiet time to listen for the wisdom contained within this light.  But it is very difficult to find when we are so distracted by the many interesting and chaotic events and circumstances that seem to be everywhere.  We must make a choice.  We can either be caught in the world of games and emotional dramas all day long, or we can choose to find some time for the light within.  Finding the light within and listening carefully will change our experience of life.

 

The choice to reach for,  and connect with the light means that we value love and light more than the games of this world. Find some time to sit quietly and still the mind.  When you can sit without thinking, your light within will begin to emerge all on its own.  Simply steal a few moments here and there to practice not thinking.  This will start the process.

 

Learning to meditate will really help you develop this skill.  But every opportunity you take to still the mind will encourage the light within you come forward.  Just trust the process and experiment with it.  you will undoubtedly begin to feel peace and serenity as the light begins to shine.

 

Everyday is a choice.  Will you take some time to focus on love and light or continue to play the games of the ego and get lost in the world?

“You may experience a sense of perfect peace, a sense of truly being home.  You may experience a great, brilliant, all-consuming light that fills, illumines and magnifies your very being in such a fantastic way that no one ever actually has been able to put it into words…  But the one thing you most definitely will experience when you reach your inner Consciousness is the serenity of knowing without confusion, and an abiding peace and joy that will carry over into your active life even when you are not in these quiet meditational periods”

Ann Wigmore, “The Healing Power Within”

Personal Freedom

Your infinite potential can be discovered only through personal freedom.  Can you give yourself permission to follow your heart and live your dreams? Do you believe there is a path for you that will bring happiness, love and joy?  If so, then you must also know that the answers you seek are within you.  Letting … Continue reading “Personal Freedom”

Achieve Personal freedomYour infinite potential can be discovered only through personal freedom.  Can you give yourself permission to follow your heart and live your dreams? Do you believe there is a path for you that will bring happiness, love and joy?  If so, then you must also know that the answers you seek are within you.  Letting go of the expectations of others is the first step to discovering this hidden potential.

 

What is freedom?  Are we really free?  How much of what you do everyday are behaviours and activities that you feel you ‘should’ do?  Aren’t these the activities that you were taught were good and acceptable?  Weren’t you trained and conditioned into living the life you presently live?  Have you ever wondered what kind of life you would be living if your conditioning had not started so young?  Do you really believe in personal freedom?

 

Well deep down inside of you there are seeds of desire for a life that would be truly fulfilling.  A life that would bring you joy.  The majority of people will never discover this life for themselves because the conditioning of society to conform is so strong.  They are controlled and do not understand personal freedom.

 

By striving for freedom, the freedom to think differently and to question everything you will begin to walk the path that will lead you to this joy.   The seeds of your joy may be buried, but they are there and can be discovered.  Break free and live the life that was destined for you.  Dig deep and find your personal freedom.

 

 “I have learned this, at least, by my experiment;

that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and

endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success

unexpected in common hours.”
