In the past few weeks, exploring the mystery has instructed you to DO LESS and JUST BREATHE. Can you think of one time you chose to do less or slowed yourself down by deep breathing?
Did you note that there wasn’t a midweek post for two weeks? I chose to DO LESS. It wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be to do less, but when I did, there was a feeling of liberation.
Instruction #3 is pretty straightforward: DRINK WATER.
True confession: Almost never in my life have I been thirsty for water.
But now I am! My body loves the taste of alkaline water as shown in the bottle above. If you Google alkaline water you will find it is quite controversial. I don’t care about any of that – I’m just happy to be drinking water!
Water cleans out your system. Water has no calories. Water has many benefits. And to add another layer of complexity, in Jungian theory, water often represents the unconscious.
The unconscious contains all the parts of ourselves that we don’t know about. So if you want to DO LESS, JUST BREATHE, & DRINK WATER, and you can’t accomplish these relatively simple goals, you can guess that something in your unconscious is blocking your success.
The unconscious is one of the mysteries we are exploring so if you are feeling confused………
