You are the unchanging awareness behind all your experiences
And the consciousness behind your thoughts
You have the ability to navigate any situation with grace and equanimity

Your response determines how you feel
And how you interpret events is what matters

Rather than automatically reacting with old patterns that are based on conditioning
Put yourself in observer mode
And choose which thoughts to engage with

Do not become strongly attached to an outcome
Remind yourself that your true nature is not dependent on external happenings

Our minds create elaborate scenarios of what might happen
Then we worry about it taking place
When most of the time it does not come to pass

Notice when you get caught up in the drama of your mind
Acknowledge your thoughts and feel your emotions
But let them pass through you
Do not identify with them just observe them

A shift in perspective is incredibly liberating
And allows you to engage with life more fully

Instead of worrying about what others are thinking
You can enjoy the moment
Because you are no longer at the mercy of your mental chatter and fluctuating emotions

Situations that once caused you great distress
Will now flow through you more easily

Remember your resilience and inner strength in the face of challenges
See the treasure mine of infinity within yourself

Your true nature lies beyond the collection of memories and experiences
That makes up your personal history
Your essential being transcends the body mind concept

The self we cling to so tightly
Is a collection of constantly changing mental constituents

Do not fight against what is
And let go of your attempt of trying to control everything
You will find that life often unfolds in beautiful and unexpected ways

The narrative you tell yourself maps your entire experience of life
Your internal dialogue is the architect of your reality
Talk to yourself in ways that empower and uplift

You are both a paradox and an enigma
In this lies the beauty of life!
