Well-Being.
Being Well. Whole. Being.
Well-Being is a perspective. An attitude.
It’s a state of WHOLENESS or ONENESS, in deep harmony with life.
It’s so much more than simply being physically healthy or fit. Where there is health (what we desire), there is the opposite of sickness (what we avoid). Duality. Avoiding pain, seeking pleasure. But there is no guarantee that our health will always be perfect, even with the best of intentions.
Well-Being encompasses our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual Well-Being.
It’s about our relationship to our thinking and thoughts, what we FEEL and the state of Being we are in.
We can waste a lot of time and energy trying to think positive, to feel good or to create a body that looks/feels good on the outside. But inside, we may feel more empty than ever before.
We never know what may unfold in our life. Life has a tendency to send many experiences our way in order that we will learn, grow and transcend. Each experience has a hidden gift if we are open and willing to look.
As we experience life, we can be sure that despite the struggles and challenging moments (which are LOVE in disguise), we are always moving towards more Joy. This is the Truth.
It’s one of the great mysteries of life. Something knows better than we do about what we really need to thrive. Often, we see this in hindsight but rarely do we have the vision to see it as we are meeting our current challenges.
It really does not matter what happens or comes to you. What does matter is how you respond to it and your attitude or perspective. It makes all the difference.
You have two choices.
You can identify as a Person (which is always limiting, feels separate and is prone to suffering)
OR
You can transcend and rise above the person and remember yourself as the state of Consciousness or Being.
Being is untouched. It’s a great space of silence, from where everything arises and all returns. It sees everything.
Practice reminding yourself regularly - I am Consciousness. I am the Self.
As you do, you will find that your identification as a person will fall away.
This is the great secret of the wise. Seeing themselves only as Consciousness.
It’s simple.
Just Be.
