I challenge you to notice how your thinking and interests change as you are in different places. The power of the environment to effect change in your thoughts and behaviors is an important tool for coping in Transition.
It has long been known that who you hang out with is a reflection of who you are. This is the big reason why your parents worked so hard to get a house in a nice neighborhood with good schools and low crime rates. The question that keeps coming up for me is which came first, who you are or the environment. Does the environment reflect you or do you reflect the environment?
I believe the answer is both. Visualize the neighborhood where you live. Did it look this way before you moved here? How do you know? What has changed since you moved there? Is it to your liking or otherwise? Has your thoughts about the neighborhood changed since you moved in? I suggest that the fabric of space and the appearance of your environment are a reflection of your thoughts, so you are experiencing the same space that others experience but in your own way based on your thoughts about it.
Each place you go has its unique energy and when you experience that energy you combine with it to create your unique experience. So this is what I mean about both came first, the environment and you. You make the environment and the environment makes you! The small changes you observe when you go to a place you visited only a month ago or even a moment ago are reflections of your consciousness changing. These changes validate your thoughts and in doing so they empower the thoughts to become stronger or not depending on what you think about these changes. The environment is a reflection of you and your thoughts combined with other people’s thoughts or the ripple effect.
To better explain this ripple effect, remember that there is but one mind. There is no one else! What you experience as other people’s thoughts is only a ripple of your own thoughts. The other important thing to understand is that the conscious mind is not aware of all thoughts and in fact 90-95% of thoughts in the average person are unconscious thus supporting this effect of other people.
I hope I have not lost you. If you are still reading let me transition into the way this works to your advantage. When you know how a process works you have more control over its operation. You can visualize the process supporting you. Things happen to help you grow and experience what you need.
Often people go to the library to study or relax in a place of silence, or go to the mall for the excitement of shopping and seeing many other people. In this way you cope with your moods and feelings. You are using the power of place to shape your experience! Let’s say you are at a bar late at night and you decide to walk home. Which route you take or if you decide to take a taxi and the thoughts you are having about the trip home will reflect your thoughts and feelings. If you feel safe you will be and if you take a path that supports that safety. They work hand in hand.
I believe the key is to be aware of your feelings and thoughts at all times and this is done not only by being in touch with your heart chakra, but by your surroundings.
