Telling the Truth Tuesday - a new self-help tool

On Sunday I caught a few minutes of an Oprah show on her network called Soul Sunday. She had one of my favorite authors on, Gary Zukav, who wrote "Seat of the Soul." He was talking about the difference between our personality and our soul (or higher self). The negative emotions we feel such as jealousy, anger, fear, etc. are our personality. When we know we are spiritual, creative beings, it is our higher self operating. The new tool is about what to do when we catch our personalities behaving in ways we don't want. Zukav said to catch yourself when the impulse comes up to say or do something hurtful or destructive and rather then respond externally, go inward. There, search for the underlying cause of whatever triggered your negative feelings. It is almost always fear, and underneath that is powerlessness, and underneath that is unworthiness. This is brilliant folks stuff. What you do then is have the power to choose your response, rather than just go on automatic pilot. I just love this, don't you?

Blessings,
