When most people think of self trust, they look at the way they think about themselves. But true self trust is when you trust the wisdom of the body, not your concept of your self. We trust what is important to us, but when our focus is limited to thinking, we place importance into our thoughts. When we think a thought is important, we end up trusting a symbol in our mind and we ignore our inner wisdom. The essence of life and our deepest wisdom exists beyond thinking and that is where our real challenge begins.
Combat veterans became super-conscious in combat when life became more important than thinking. Many of the veterans I worked with said even though war was a terrible memory, their highest spiritual experiences happen there.
In Latin the word “redemption” comes from a word meaning “to give back to the original owner”. The combat veteran spiritual experience came from practically realizing that life was most important. As we grew up, we began to put importance into our thoughts, because that was where society focused. Redemption is simply giving that importance back to its original owner, life. In combat or when a person faces a life threatening illness, the essence of life is so much more important than one’s thoughts. In that super-conscious moment we break out of the limitations of our mind and truly manifest.
When we are in any kind of struggle it is important to look at what is really important to us. Do we trust thoughts in our mind or do we trust the Wisdom of our body? If you are going to make an effort to meet your challenge, you have to trust your deepest wisdom instead of your past conditioning. If thoughts and memories are more important to you; you trust the illusions of your mind instead of the Wisdom of your Body. To deal with a health challenge, trusting inner wisdom makes you receptive to the Wisdom of your Body, the part of us that literally heals. Your deepest hope, the best examples and pure positive thinking is not as powerful as trusting your inner wisdom. Self trust opens you up to your natural healing potential and helps you respond to your medical treatments better.
We all have the Wisdom of the Body but our thinking limits us from using it. Go to http://lifeskillsinc.com for a free e-book on how to connect with inner wisdom, your best resource in a health challenge. Join a Tele-seminar to develop strong habits of this approach.
