S0 Ep 7: How Does Awareness Recognize and Work with Change?

What is the importance of change to awareness? The Universe is in a constant state of change – it is inevitable. You cannot stop change Nobody denies that change is scary. Humans seek comfort, be it in our homes, relationships, clothing, foods we consume, and so forth. There is a certain level of comfort in the familiar. As such, when that which we are used to changes, it can be extremely disconcerting. Change is inevitable. It cannot be stopped. So when we are embracing change, we open ourselves up to controlling it instead. Working with and accepting and embracing change Getting control of change and changing. Change ALWAYS happens. All life is, in truth, made of change. Without change – WE WOULD NOT BE. In the words of Marcus Aurelius, “Is any man afraid of change? Why what can take place without change? What then is more pleasing or more suitable to the universal nature? And canst thou take a bath unless the wood undergoes a change? And canst thou be nourished, unless the food undergoes a change? And can anything else that is useful be accomplished without change? Dost thou not see then that for thyself also to change is just the same, and equally necessary for the universal nature.” Embracing unwanted change is particularly challenging. Influencing and directing change is in your power. Taking charge You are empowered to control change and changing through Mindfulness There is no need to fear change.  Consciousness creates reality. We can choose what that means for us by how we react to change. When we resist, we are bound to create a reality we do not desire. If, however, we embrace change, we might just be able to control it, and direct it for the better. https://mjblehart.com [email protected] https://www.instagram.com/mjblehart/ https://twitter.com/MJBlehart https://www.facebook.com/blehartmj/ mjblehart.medium.com Cover artist Fe Mahoney: [email protected] and https://www.etsy.com/shop/TaliasInspirations
