Shooting for the Exceptional Life

May 8th 2014

Have you ever thought that there may be more to life? It's amazing; the appeal of the perfect scenario. The desire for something more, or better, or more exceptional. So often our perception leads us astray to think that life is supposed to be grander and greater, more peaceful or harmonious, more healthy or stronger or more fit, more abundant in relationships or finances, as we continue to strive, strive, strive for that which we don't have. This game that we play with ourselves is a bottomless pit of more wants and more desires. It's a never ending trap of chasing the perceived void of things missing in our life. Why do I say this?... What I find so often in my practice, as we start balancing and opening up the constricted brain and nervous system, is that there becomes this deep awareness, that everything is beautiful just as it is. That we find everything we want within a bodymind that we are looking to the outside for. More energy? Access that within you. More peace? It's there! More harmony? Look in the mirror. You see, so often what we are looking for on the outside, is already right there within us, waiting to be accessed at any moment. 

That moment of connecting to your inner rhythms, your breath, your body, your movements, is a moment of absolute presence with yourself, where the noise of the mind can cease, and where you can access new sources of available energy and resources. There is nothing else to chase, but watching, feeling and observing the dance of your bodymind. That is often more than enough to feel the satisfaction of what wholeness feels like in that moment. Wholeness insinuates that there is no void to be filled, no chasing, no further needs or wants. Everything is exceptional just as it is; a state of fullness. The more you connect with yourself, the more you are creating the neurological hardware and software that allows you to utilize the parts of your brain for presence, peace, inner harmony and wholeness. You don't have to create those things in your life, because they are already existing. You need to find them where they already exist, which is within you, not outside of you. They are not missing, they are just hidden.

This level of connection most often requires practice, as most of us have lived lives of busy bees, doing lots of stuff, and lacking this essential inner awareness and connection. Network Spinal Analysis is a tool we use to assist you rapidly to begin to upgrade the nervous system, so you can access more energy efficient states, and connect within 10-20 minutes, what would take some a weekend vacation away to achieve. Another strategy to access inner presence is a regular practice of giving thanks for what is already there in front of you. Practicing gratitude is essential, as we are consciously placing ourselves in a temporary state of fullness, wholeness, and in a state of abundance. There is no chasing the dangling carrot, instead, there is a divine presence around giving thanks and praise for that which we are already full with. Therefore, instead of chasing the exceptional life, what I am proposing is that we already acknowledge that life is exceptional in so many ways. So can you find within your daily life to be grateful for?

 Can you say thank you to yourself for being so exceptional?

Can you find the divine peace within?
