What is the perfect path to success? There is a lot of information about what's 'right' and 'not right' to do with your day. Some of it seems pretty ironclad. Here's the issue. There is no 'one right path' for everyone.
Whether you love who you are or wake up wishing things could be different, it doesn’t matter. The human brain craves expansion. We strive for more because we are designed to strive for more.
It has been a long believed notion that suffering is inherent to all humans and while this was once a true concept, it is no longer the only option we have available to us. Suffering is not inherent. Neither is bliss. They are day to day, moment by moment mechanisms of the brain mechanisms we can manipulate.
We all understand mental illness is a result of poor brain function. Well see doctors and therapists, take yoga classes, learn to meditate and try a myriad of alternative medicines to improve it, but what no one tells us--maybe because they don’t really see it--is that we can completely alter our brain function and therefore, the consciousness it creates; not over decades or even years, but in just weeks to months.
Whether it is the touch of the body, of the mind or of the soul; whether it is through physical contact, the blending of colors in a painting or a song that reaches to the very core of who we are, being touched transforms us and fires within us the desire to truly live.
