For many, it may seem too much to ask for...for some life is full of drama, pain, distress, upset and dissatisfaction...if this is true for you even some of the time you may wish to look at how your survival consciousness is getting in the way. Survival consciousness is the part of our awareness that tries to solve our problems using fight or flight as its tools...this is a natural and normal part of being human, but it is also the cause of most of the relationship and life living problems people deal with on a day to day basis.
A good tool for you to use is to see what is bothering you and then ask yourself will beating it up or running away "REALLY" solve this problem...if your answer is NO, then you may want to look at whether or not you have been triggered into your fight/flight/freeze consciousness.
You can easily tell if you have, because you will notice your options are either/or and not very appealing in any case...You will be looking for agreement and allies from others and you will be acting in very familiar ways and saying very familiar things about the problem.
If that is the case then take a break...take a few deep breaths and surrender your reactive, angry, helpless, frustrated, or hopeless mind to the possibility that your problem has now become your fight/flight consciousness.
Stop what you're doing and allow for the return of your Authentic Self...Seek out someone who neither agrees or disagrees with you and let them guide you through your fear and distress until once again you can see the situation as an opportunity to express your goodwill and good intentions...be with your feelings of pain, loss, and fear and allow them to pass...Seek surrender and learn how that feels for you until you no longer need to manage and can allow life to be...grow into your potential and let the grip of fight flight subside...Be well and love the ones you're with...until next time I remain...Yours Truly, Larry
