It's a no-brainer......

It's been a few months since my last post. I have been writing here and there on pieces of paper, post-its, and even napkins. I have been trying to organize my thoughts. Usually, at the end of my doodles, there is a bit more of a concise concept. Doubts and second-guesses are part of my norm while writing. My doubts kick in when I remember things like these. English is my second language, people want to read fun facts, maybe I will put someone to sleep at night while they read my blog. What I do know is that "I" feel good writing. It ignites a spark of passion and excitement. The next step is making a bold move and moving forward. -"Write the blog, publish it. It takes courage on a small scale to hit the "return" button, but every time I do, I feel a sense of accomplishment. For all of those who doubt, just remember, YOLO and NIKE got it right!... You only live once!!! Just do it!!!

It has been taking me a long time to understand and grasp the concept that my brain is not me. My consciousness is. Our consciousness is what controls our thoughts inside our brain. Our brain is the organ that stores all of our mundane experiences and interpretations of these experiences and emotions that they carry, with the main function to keep us safe.

I am trying to make it a new habit of mine to become more of an observer of these constant processes, a silent witness of my own reality. It's like having an out-of-body experience and watching it like a movie on replay. What just happened? What am I feeling? How is my body reacting? pause, observe. 

In my consciousness resides the better outcome for those thoughts.  The truthful ones. If I allow more space and quietness to be aware of my consciousness, maybe through mindfulness like praying, meditating, walking in nature, doing something that connects me with my higher self in peace and love, these serene spaces will be available for me to access when my brain goes places. In my consciousness, I can create a better reality, and I can strive for a more positive outlook for whatever I encounter. I have the power to create and feel abundance, health, love, and positivity, even in the face of adversity. This is where my spiritual strength happens, where I trust that the outcome will always serve me the best.

aligned with my higher self.

I need to remember I need to give myself grace to understand the complexity of my brain, its neural pathways that have been carved into my brain, and my old habits. These pathways that were ignited since my childhood, where my brain went over and over again, maybe they were pathways of fear, maybe anger, maybe doubt, maybe loneliness or sadness, all for the sake of my safety. But as we know, we have the amazing capacity to create new neural pathways. Our brain could be retrained to go towards different thoughts so we could have different emotions, reactions, and outcomes. My state can be experienced in the realm of reality in different ways. State of serenity, a state of peace and love, a state of abundance. That’s what I strive for. If we are aware of these simple but complex concepts daily, we could change our reality. We are amazing creators and sparks of something spectacular, creating light in this world. Let’s continue to ignite our power. Let’s be very careful what we tell ourselves! Our thoughts our words! We have to start loving ourselves, respecting ourselves, before we can do to others. Speaking poorly to ourselves and in hurtful ways does impact our reality! We create that reality based on those powerful thoughts. As humans, it’s impossible to be in positive vibes only. What we can do is be more conscious about when the negativity holds our brain hostage. Let it sit there for a minute and redirect the course. Change the old habits of “catastrophizing” and rewrite our narrative for a positive one. We have a will, and where there is a will, there’s a way! We just have to move forward and not get paralyzed. Stepping out of “our brain/thought” will slow us down to rectify and find a better outcome. My wish in this rambling of my words is that we stop the suffering of being stuck in rabbit holes, and to feel hope! Because peace always comes right after. It always does. 

All my love to you. 🤍💫
