Inner peace is a side effect of being in equity with yourself, others and the world around you.
In the process of acting in the world, and exchanging with others, our brain is designed to keep inventory just like in accounting.
It is constantly calculating the exchanges we have with others.
How we feel can be broken down into a simple debt-surplus ratio from our minds, of what we think we owe others, or what we think others owe us.
Perfect harmony and equity; love, inner peace, appreciation, gratitude, owing; resentment, anger, bitterness, guilt, shame, sorrow, sadness
When I coached Sandra, we went through her most important relationships that were distressful. She was wildly emotional about her past and distraught she had such a miserable upbringing. She had been in therapy for years trying to heal her relationship with her father. Most of that was trying to understand why he did what he did, and find reasons for his behaviour; to justify the pain she felt. When we began to look deeper, at the details of the relationships, we revealed that they actually were in perfect harmony and fair exchange, the entire time, for nearly 50 years.
When we coached her, we had her reveal to herself that they challenged and supported each other equally, going back and forth with various actions, in equal proportion. When she revealed that to herself, when she saw and felt the balance of ‘give and take’, and that ‘nobody owed anything to anyone’, her feelings changed as her mind changed, and she felt peace, love and completion.
Our bodies and brains are designed to give us feedback with symptoms when we are out of flow and sync with this natural law of reciprocity.
When we looked at her EEG brain patterns before and after, her brain transformed from a “pre-dementia pattern” to a “healthy and adaptable pattern” in the brain.
She went from daily brain fog and low energy and motivation, to clear-headed, graceful and re-invigorated energy.
The results both objectively and subjectively, were transformational.
This is the power of inner peace…through fair exchange…through asking good questions.
When you take the time to dig into the facts, and not the feelings, your feelings can change as you learn new information and reveal ignorances that once seemed so right.
Inner peace is just a handful of questions away.
See you next week!
