What Mind Are You Moving From?

I created this graphic from observing how myself and friend were interacting in a season of discord. I became aware of how much I was moving from my emotional mind, them from their logical. At times more emotional intelligence was needed, in others, objective logical was necessary. The most powerful moments were when I could show up from my Wise mind, even better when we both could; effective conflict resolution does take two!

I feel this level of awareness is pivotal for healthy relationships, family units, and individual power.

As you can see the Emotional Mind (or as I prefer to call it "Sensory" Mind) and Logical Mind both have their challenges and this gifts.

The “mind” we are in, is not stagnant. We oscillate between these Minds as we move through Life.

The point is to take a moment to check-in, to be aware of where we are in a given moment.

Are we even aware of what mind we are primarily moving from?

What about in conflict or problem solving, how do you tend to show up?

The Wise Mind is our true essence and we want to settle in that Mind-Frame as much as we can. Awareness makes this possible.

#InnerEquilibrium comes from 1st being AWARE of how we're moving, and then taking steps to re-orient Self if we observe ourselves moving in a way that isn’t beneficial.
