“We must shift our allegiances from fear to curiosity, from attachment to letting go, from control to trust, and from entitlement to humility.”

– Angeles Arrien

Imagine if we all did this, how the world would be different …

Lets commit to shifting our allegiances by checking in with ourselves today and every day:

From being fearful to getting curious

From being attached to letting go

From controlling to trusting

From feeling entitled to being grateful and humble

This is mindful living.

Namaste

  4. Good thoughts, Val.

    Being curious instead of fearful had something to do wth why we didn’t run out of the building into the pouring rain when the fire alarm sounded . . .

    Instead of trying to control the situation, we trusted that our collective intuition would encourage us to move in plenty of time if we were really in harm’s way . . .

    Instead of being attached to the stories swirling in our head about what the alarm “might” mean, we let go of our prejudgements and stayed in the present moment . . .

    And when it proved to be a false alarm, we were grateful that we were warm and safe and dry . . .
