How?
There are two steps: figuring out what the “good” is for you after which giving your self over to it.
So, first step: what’s the nice that may serve you to offer your self over to as of late? In your thoughts, on paper, or speaking with a good friend, make a listing for your self. In all probability it gained’t be lengthy. Hearken to your internal figuring out of what the nice is for you. If applicable, open to counsel from others (e.g., dad or mum, good friend, therapist, I Ching, prayer), however don’t let anybody push their view on you.
Your record would possibly embody self-nurturance, the peacefulness of nature, extra self-expression, a long-deferred dream, sobriety, internal energy, sure well being practices, meditation, the wants of your temperament, the straightforward fact {that a} specific job/profession/relationship shouldn’t be best for you, or the knowledge of your physique that is aware of when it’s full and wishes no extra meals for now.
For what it’s price, these “items” have been essential for me personally to offer over to recently: the necessity for true down-time . . . self-soothing . . . the love and loyalty of pals . . . an underlying deeply peaceable sense of really being nothing however a standing wave and that’s alright . . .
Subsequent, the second step: choose one of many good currents you’ve recognized and open to it in your thoughts and physique. Enjoyable, receiving, surrendering to it . . . discover how this feels. Attempt to discover pleasure, ease, and luxury on this present. Discover any reluctance to be carried by this power for good in your life, after which see should you can let that reluctance go away.
Think about letting this good dwell you . . . what would that be like? What would possibly change for the higher – for you and others? Let the affect of these optimistic adjustments land in your thoughts; let your self sense their rewards; let your self grow to be extra motivated to lean towards them.
Then, for the subsequent minute, hour, or day, deal with this one good factor and provides your self over to it. In impact, “willpower” turns into redefined as yielding: give up to the very best inside you and round you.
Let this good be your guideline, your North Star. Let it’s what will get you off the bed within the morning, fills you, breathes you, and animates you. Benefit from the contentment, aid, and sense of integrity that swell in your coronary heart via dwelling from and as this good. Let your self know that you already know what’s good. Really feel your self turning into extra dedicated to this good. Really feel your self turning into this good.
