It\u2019s extremely helpful to get to know your moods.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It means the difference between automatically falling for them and being swallowed by them, or becoming aware of what’s going on and keep a bit of distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I say \u2018moods\u2019 I guess I mean every single emotional situation we can find ourselves in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not just depression or anger or sadness, but also self-righteousness, disappointment, elation, confusion, and \u2018just not feeling very well\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I call them moods because they are temporary, they don\u2019t define or underpin us, and they have a real impact on how we live our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moods are all the elements of an experience, seamlessly integrated as one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have them all the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I didn\u2019t feel this distinct but subtle difference between the gazillion fleeting emotional circumstances and the realization they were going on, I stumbled from one mood to the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was a total mood victim, and of course I blamed the world and the people in the world, most of the time, which made me feel utterly helpless and hopeless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But this relationship with how life feels to me and impacts me and burdens me changed when I started to directly recognize the only thing that never changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consciousness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consciousness without the content and the distraction and the diversion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consciousness as the one and only thing that is before, during and after each and every one of our human experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And even though it might sound totally unsexy and extremely unspectacular, it is the gamechanger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Big Motherfucker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think that we all know consciousness in one of its more mundane, practical, and human forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Happiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compassion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or, a really nice little one:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because of this rich, divine versatility, the ONLY goal I have in coaching is to help people directly realize their true nature, and acknowledge that connection, literally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Living straight from your grounding, your impersonal Self or this intuitive guidance is everything you really need for everything else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have seen over and over again that the rest is up for grabs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I mean ALL of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From there you can become whatever you want, live anywhere, aim for the stars or just be satisfied with the soil you live on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can let go of anxiety and stress, and see through your cravings and depression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being truly, consciously grounded means having an unwavering sense that the universe has your back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A real sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not a wish, not something you have to tell yourself all day long, not a belief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You just know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And when that happens, you\u2019ll find that the relationship with your moods changes dramatically, and the habitual victimhood gently dissolves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wish that for you, today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
