Wholeness

Loved coming across this image by @chopra.

It’s not that the list on the left isn’t fulfilling, admirable or of value. They are. We truly fulfill through wholeness & healing…

The human experience of joy & happiness centers around a wholeness from the inside, which enables healing, empowerment to grow a relationship with ourselves and discovering at our own pace that our primary purpose is “being", and our secondary purpose is “doing”.

Personally, when I find myself slipping out of “being” and only “doing” - or consistently doing first… I notice how easy it is (for me) to slip out of gratitude, self-care, overall awareness… and thus, moments of suffering, unhappiness, internal/external conflict.

Rather than letting the energy flow from the inside out… I would be grabbing for it on the outside, while putting the inside on the side... Checking off boxes while leaving my box empty.

By “being” first, you can do more. By “doing” first, doing more is never quite enough…
