Inner Peace Process: 7 Steps to Transforming Resentment to Gratitude

1.     Acknowledge there is resentment.
2.     Locate where you are holding the resentment in your body.
3.     Breathe it out of your body and out into left your hand to get a hold on it, and to create the space in your body for something new.
4.     Identify the lessons, the blessings, the gifts, and put those gifts in your right and, to get a hold of them as well. There is never a lesson without a blessing.
5.     Embrace the gifts by bringing them into your heart, into your body, allowing the gifts to replace the feelings of resentment.
6.     Acknowledge your power and choice.  At this point, you can decide to continue holding on to the resentment in your left hand, or discarding it completely by blowing it away like dust you no longer need.
7.     Take the action to discard the resentment by blowing it away, reclaiming your freedom and stepping into gratitude for your life and all the lessons you've ever received.
 

Inner Peace Process: 7 Steps for Connecting to Your Truth

This process allows you to experience the truth underlying any area of separation in your life.  We tend to grow complacent with our separation.  Additionally, we tend to develop a high tolerance for the pain in our lives.  In this process we use the pain of the separation from truth to remind us of what we are feeling and to prompt us to focus on connection.

1.     Take a moment and get quiet.  Give your body and spirit the gift of the healing breath.  Take 5-6 deep, healing breaths.

2.    Now, think of an area of separation in your life.  Take a moment and really experience how this feels for you.  Feel the pain of being separated from your truth.  Notice where the pain is in your body.  Are there any fears or thoughts that come up?

3.    Once you are complete, take a deep breath and as you exhale, release the pain and the feelings.  Let it all come out in the breath.  Give yourself the gift of experiencing a moment without the pain.

4.    Now take a moment and think about how you would like to feel about the area instead of what you just felt.  Describe to yourself how you want to feel about this area, how do you want to experience it.  Really get into the feeling.  Let it permeate your entire body.  Really have an experience of this new feeling.

5.     Now ask yourself, what does this feeling give you?  For example, if you feel separated from your purpose and then get connected with it, the answer to this question may be “Feeling connected makes me feel confident”.

6.    Repeat the questioning process.  “Now that I feel confident, what does feeling confident do for me (or give me?)”.  Keep asking yourself these questions until you feel complete or have reached a core state (love, joy, etc.)

7.    Now take a moment and notice how connected you feel with the truth about yourself.  Breathe this in.  And remind yourself that this is the truth of your being.  The pain is a falsehood.   Remind yourself that as you move forward, you now know what it feels like to be connected, so this is the place you come back to time and time again to get centered and to remind yourself of the truth.

The above two processes can be used with almost anything you are willing to let go of and heal in your life, so our prayer is that you will use them, they only work if you use them.

Inner Peace Process: Closing the Gap Between Willing & Wanting

Take a blank piece of paper and turn it horizontal.  Now draw an arrow across the length of the paper, from left to right.  All the way across it.  Now, on the left side of the paper, at the beginning of your arrow write the word “Wanting.”  And on the right side, at the tip of your arrow write the word “Willing.”  Now, notice all the space between the words wanting and willing.  That space is called “Awareness.” Think about something you have wanted in your life that you haven’t received yet…..the answers as to why, lies in that space labeled awareness.

So let’s create some awareness right now – Close your eyes for a second.  Take a deep breath in and just allow your body and mind to relax and allow your subconscious mind to bring to the surface your greatest hearts desire, this could also be considered your personal mission for your life right now.  If the big one does not come right now, just allow that to be okay.  Sometimes when we ask to be made aware of our mission, we may have difficulty accessing that information if we have build blocks of disbelief around it. So just allow to surface whatever comes up for you as an important desire right now.  When you get that, write it down on your paper next to the word “wanting.”

Now, ask your subconscious mind to bring into your awareness the one major or most important thing you must be willing to do in order to achieve what you are wanting.  Once you receive your answer, write that action step on your paper next to the word “willing.” This is how you close the gap between wanting something and being willing to go after it and make it happen:  (1) design a plan to move you to action, where you do some small thing each day to move you towards your hearts desires; and (2) the most important part is to be held accountable for taking those action steps.  If you did not need accountability, you would probably already have what you are wanting.  Join the Inner Peace Circles Sign and get yourself in to a weekly support group and start living the life you desire.
