Which Road Will You Travel On?
Every day you have choice. You can decide which road you travel on.
You could travel on the Left Road, your familiar way of living. On the Left Road, you are living on autopilot, reacting to situations, controlled by your history, socialization, and all your learned, emotionally familiar patterns. Or, you could choose to travel on the Right Road, supported by that little voice inside yourself – your intuition or as I call it your Spiritual Self – and be in touch with your own inner wisdom, love and self-compassion.
So, which road do you want to travel on today?
If the answer is “the Left Road”, be kind, compassionate and gentle with yourself as you explore questions like, ‘what is going on for me right now’ or, ‘which of my needs are not being met?’ If your answer is “the Right Road”, take a moment now to express gratitude and appreciation to yourself for making this choice.
Despite our best intentions, it is easy to fall back into familiar habits and patterns, particularly when we feel stressed, overwhelmed, or confused. At any moment, you can reset your GPS to get you back to your Right Road.
Try this mini visualization:
Close your eyes for a moment and visualize standing at a fork in the road. In one direction is the Left Road and the other the Right Road. As you picture yourself standing at the fork in the road, realize that you do have CHOICE. Then visualize your future on the Left Road, imaging that nothing has changed in your life; your still controlled by your historical way of doing things and your learned patterns. Take a few moments to experience the pain, the loss, and the suffering for you and for others in your life as you travel on the Left Road. Get a clear sense of this. Then take a few deep breaths, and once again visualize yourself back at the fork in the road. Now, imagine your future on the Right Road, making choices based on the inner wisdom of your own essence, your intuition, your Spirit – supported by your own love and compassion. Take a few minutes and get a clear sense of this. Bring yourself back to the fork in the road. Take a deep breath…..and now make your choice. Take another deep breath as you make this commitment to yourself.
Happy travels to you!
