Why Energy Practices Are Needed. Part 2
Yesterday, the first webinar of the basic course “7 Keys of Mindfulness” took place, where we broke down the core concepts we’ll be working with throughout the course.
In particular, two strategies for coping with stress: the scarcity strategy and the excess strategy.
More on this — in a short clip from the webinar:
And today, after spending several hours in my inbox answering questions, I want to look at this same topic from a slightly different angle.
So, the third eye chakra.
Many people think that because it’s called the THIRD EYE, it’s responsible for visualization and the ability to see clearly.
But not many realize that CLEAR SEEING — it’s not pictures and images, but a clear PERCEPTION OF INFORMATION and cause-and-effect relationships.
An imbalance, caused by an excess of energy or a lack of it, in this energy center gives rise to ILLUSIONS.
The first illusion, associated with a deficit of energy, is the illusion of limited thinking and narrowed perception of surrounding reality.
A vivid example: a pathological inability to clearly express one’s thoughts or constructively describe a situation.
To describe constructively means to communicate all the details needed to resolve the issue.
You see the situation from your side, you UNDERSTAND what you’re talking about, but you completely DON’T consider how obvious that same situation is for another person.
A ticket to Support: Something’s wrong, I can’t log in anywhere.
????????????????????????????????????????????
It’s clear that the person reaching out needs help, but how can you provide it if there’s NO OTHER information at all?!
(No offense intended to the author)
A similar situation often unfolds in relationships:
Someone said something, and I, based on my own experience, drew my own conclusions.
Without bothering at all to clarify how much the picture in my mind matches reality.
And if we’re talking about a relationship between a man and a woman, then it’s practically time to scream HELP!
They communicate like aliens from different galaxies speaking different languages…
The second type of illusion is linked to hyperactivity of the center and manifests as a lack of discernment.
Reality is replaced by fantasies, a huge flow of consumed information turns into “omnivorousness”…
Such a person CANNOT pass by a single book, publication, or post on social media.
In such an information flow, the ability to distinguish truth is switched off.
As a result, a crazy number of questions appear.
You just find the answer to a nagging question, and immediately 10 more pop up in your head. And they’re all IMPORTANT.
