Self-Awareness Week 2

“Become who you are by learning who you are.”

Pindar, ancient Greek poet  

Pindar wrote this quote over 2,600 years ago, and here we are today talking about the same thing. Last week we considered what we like about ourselves.  Hopefully through those questions you were able to learn something about yourself or at least verify what you already knew. To discover ourselves, we must trust ourselves.  Today sit in a grounded position or lay down. Interlock fingers across your chest. The symbol of Unshakeable Trust in self. Close your eyes or lower your gaze and go inward. Be one with yourself, connecting mind and body.  Start to focus on your breathing, taking 10 balanced breaths of 5 counts in through the nostrils and 5 counts out of the nostrils. Then ask yourself the question, what do I want in this life? Just let the question sit. The answer appears when you become open to the opportunity that is yours alone. It might be in the next minute, day or a week from now. Trust in yourself.
