Conscious Energy 001 - Power of Change

Imagine being able to heal challenging issues and create experiences that are desirable as opposed to always feeling at the mercy of other people and difficult circumstances. The only aspect that needs to change within you in order to experience this creative power is a change in your perspective or the way you look at things. I think it was Wayne Dyer who I first heard say this, and he may have borrowed it from another healer; 'If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at will change'.

It is the way we look at life that determines how

we experience life. Every day we encounter different people with different beliefs, habits and life perspectives. If someone else's beliefs or ways of doing something do not coincide with our beliefs, we are apt to judge that person or be confused about their behaviour. Other times, we feel people are judging our way of doing things. We are impressionable to the myriad of influences that surround us from birth onward. Our values and beliefs are shaped by our experiences and we progress through life trying to figure out how to get what we want.

Our level of success in achieving control over our life circumstances ultimately corresponds with our beliefs about our own power to effect change. There are two distinct perspectives that dictate how we experience life: we either believe that we create our own reality by the choices that we make, as in cause and effect; or, we feel controlled by other people and by our environment and believe we are powerless to affect change for ourselves.

Are you in the driver's seat of your life experiences or are you a passenger being carried along by the beliefs and agendas of those around you? In the same way that you have a choice about whether or not you will sit or stand in any given moment, you are faced with choices all day long that immediately effect how you feel about yourself.

I will be exploring the concepts of personal energy and living consciously in the coming posts, and I hope you will explore along with me. I will be drawing from my own experiences, and many other sources along the way. Wherever possible, I will provide links to research materials so that you can create your own path to understanding energy if you so desire. I encourage you to learn more about personal energy in your own way. My consciousness was raised to a new level recently and it is this new panacea of awareness that I am excited about sharing. I hope it will help you in your life. Remember, it is never too soon or too late to begin your journey of living consciously. My journey began when I was about nineteen and I am still fascinated by both the seeming complexity of personal energy, and by it's absolute singular simplicity. Please keep watching. -A.N. Next in Conscious Energy, I will explore the idea of energy and its vibration.
