A System for Change

“Ever meet a person who was too routined, who has every aspect of their life pre-planned and set in stone? Who, if you moved even a Candy Dish on the coffee table one inch to the left they would literally have a hissy fit? This person could be called rigid, structured, or over-routined.
…
It can be difficult to allow change when one has been in such a structured environment for a long time. It is fully engrained because of the extreme danger felt day in, day out. Routines become the way to feel safe
…
So how can you avoid that? You may not be that extreme, but everyone has self-soothing behaviors. From carrying a rabbit’s foot to worry stones, counting to ten, over grooming, or checking to make sure the doors are locked twice every night, everyone has self-soothing routines that help us feel safe. We all have routines in place to help us feel safe in this ever changing world. Ironically, we can use the same ideas of routine to create a system that not only soothes, but allows for us to grow and change within the routine itself!
…
Routines for Change can create a go with the flow life that has just enough stability to satisfy the stable part of us and just enough variety to allow for change. A system that allows for change and that welcomes change gives us all the tools to build confidence so that we can say, “I can handle this. This is familiar. This is okay”

Use this to get your own inner insight and wise answers that are just right for your life, here, today. Sometimes the answers we seek are right there on the tip of our tongue, but we can’t receive them. To fully open up to new possibilities, we can use a Short Cut to the answers that are just right for us in this moment in time! Sometimes just seeing something in a different light, or having a simple action one step plan is enough to handle the hardest of circumstances.
 
1. Sit still for a moment.
2. Take a few deep breaths.
3. Focus in on your heart space to get out of your head.
4. Listen for the answers after you ask. They may come as ideas, words, or just a knowing deep inside. . 
5. Breathe into your heart and ask/say to yourself:
 
- Today I am open to the new possibility that...
