Your power lies in your ability to be fully present in each moment. I had a really hard time grasping this concept. I would read about the idea that all we really have is right now, this moment. It took me a long time to see how truly disconnected I was from myself and whatever was happening in any given moment. When you’ve lived a certain way for so long it takes time to even understand what may be affecting your reality and or perception. With lots of time and practice of becoming more deeply aware of my inner world I started to recognize the disconnect. I could see how focused my mind was on the meanings I was attaching to what was happening around me as well as rumination on anything my ego mind was determining as unsafe. My feelings at any given moment were more about past experiences or future fears instead of feeling into what was happening right in front of me, good or bad. It’s taken a lot of time and hard work to process through all the things that were disconnecting me from my body and the moment. I am still working on it to this day. My ability to be more deeply present within myself and what’s happening around me has been a huge part in clearing out the clutter that has kept my reality distorted. Being completely present with what is happening within me, especially with my more intense emotions, is the most powerful healing tool I use. I’ve made significant progress and I can see the power that being fully present can create. It is this moment that all other moments are birthed from. When I can relax into myself and what's happening around me I find myself aligning with a flow that opens up possibilities and experiences that I wouldn't have been able to see coming otherwise. I’m not sure I’ll ever truly master this. As a human I don’t think it would be possible to not lose myself from time to time but I can see the potential in continuing this practice. One moment at a time.
