What new beginning stirs in you today?

Can you allow emptiness?

Where in your life can you become more silent?

Do you crave something to do or is it easy to be still?

How does it feel to you to be in a place without definition?

Thoughts are reflections of your past.

How are you most connected to the world around you?

What helps you connect to the world around you?

Are there ways you feel isolated or alone in the world? Is there a way you can find connection in these places?

Think of situations where you have not felt connections and those where you have. What is the difference?

Is it easy for you to connect with people who are different than you? Do you seek out people who challenge your beliefs or do you prefer like minded souls?

Polarity is not just your opposite. It is the thing that possesses everything you do not and therefore makes you whole.

One or the lessons of the yin/yang symbol is; when we go too far to an extreme, we create the seed for its opposite.

Polarity is often experienced as the point of tension, the line dividing the black and white of the yin/yang symbol. Is the tension you feel between you and your polarity healthy or is there suffering?

What if we are not all meant to agree?

Think of your world as an ecosystem, a place where only certain things exist harmoniously.

What 'other side' can you see in a new way today?

Seek out an opposing viewpoint today. Find an opinion where you completely disagree. Now, make an argument in your mind for that opposing point of view. Ask for help from the people around you if you need it.

What do you think of the concept of 'opposites attract?' Do you feel the more something bothers you the more you see it in your life? What makes letting go of judgement easier for you?

Buddha said, "Holding onto anger is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die." Are there places where you are waiting for others to change? What changes can you make to create a healthier life for yourself?

Think of the person who brings the most conflict to your life. Is there a way you can experience common ground with them, not agree, not compromise, not even engage with them, but a place where you can come to peace within yourself, for your own well being?

Some of us love the growth we experience through challenging our beliefs. What does it mean for you to gain new perspective on a situation? Is it a dramatic shift or do you grow through subtle changes? What kind of growth do you prefer?
