For much of my life I didn't understand that change comes from within, I
used to believe that change was something that happened to me in
response to an external event.
Eventually I came to realise the truth of Carl Jung's famous saying:
"Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate."
Beliefs, unconscious or not, are shaping the events in our lives
because they determine our response to our experiences. Until the
beliefs that drive our response to these events are released, the
outcomes won't change and we will remain on the ferris wheel of
suffering.
Why do our beliefs matter? Because deeply associated
with each belief is an emotional or energy state. Emotional energy is
the language of our inner thoughts.
People pick up on our energy
levels – the signals that we are sending out. Once we are clear, other
people will feel it and their responses will change.
Change comes from within because it's all to do with our dominant inner energy state.
It’s all energy, we’re all connected. We live in an energetic universe. But this is not a neutral universe, it is a participatory universe.
So clean the energy pathways and you will change your response to the
events and experiences in your life and you will attract people and
situations that resonate with your energy.
If you feel that you
have cleaned your energy circuits and are free of the past and yet you
aren’t making positive progress, then you haven’t cleaned your energy
circuits or got free from the past - you need to stop chasing your tail.
Until
you release the core issue, it will continue to operate. As soon as the
core belief is disconnected the energy centres in you are opened to
allow the abundance of the universe to flow in your direction.

The Power Pause is a very simple but powerful technique developed and taught by John Harricharan. It relieves stress and anxiety, helps you regain your balance and manifest your intentions. I first discovered John about 25 years ago and I was moved and helped by his writings and talks.
