There is a litany of information available; a literal “mind-field” of theological and dietary theories, holotropics, yoga styles - a very confusing landscape indeed. I think the best path for any individual is to really narrow down what you try to apply to your life, and carefully align that with your goals and values. It's time again to think a bit about Time (does that sound familiar? Are you struggling with the demands of schedule and finding the time is coming out of your hide (your personal time budget)?
Recall that two modes make time a magic carpet:
- Pleasure and
- Effort spent in Flow…that magical state, where time 'flies by'
Have you turned your schedule inside-out, made the core of your “things to do” list include the sacraments that truly sustain you as a healthy individual living in balance and harmony? Do you allow (and will you continue or make another try) adequate time for these sacraments of grace and good health? - Rest (Remember, Electronic Heroin [or TV] doesn't count)
- Nutrition (endless challenges here)
- Exercise (Balance and the right movement for You)
- Creative Expression (Art, Music, Writing, etc.)
- Relationships (So? Any progress?)
- Introspection (Belly Button Time - remember to pat yourself on the back)
- Quest for Bliss (Meditation works, even in 2 minute chunks throughout the day; sex here too, as well as in [5, 4 & 3] - lucky us!)
Do you find your productivity, in the extra time and with the extra energy you created, to be astounding? Did it work at all? Maybe another try? I'm struggling with “walking the talk” too, but getting it right for a while can be sweet.
Like any good recipe…repeat this process often. Attach yourself often with your path, review and adjust as necessary, and forge ahead.
