MAKE A LIST OF HOW TO INCREASE YOUR AWARENESS

MAKE A LIST OF HOW TO INCREASE YOUR AWARENESS: Exercise awareness over your reactions to people you have an instinctive aversion to. Do tai chi for more bodily awareness. Transform chores into meditation by establishing and maintaining awareness while doing them. Listen to sounds and others' speaking with focused awareness. Work with creative awareness instead of on autopilot, being present in your thoughts and actions. MAKE A LIST OF HOW TO INCREASE YOUR CHOICES: Develop a choiceless awareness of sensations, like sound. Stop in whatever situation you are in, long enough to under-stand that you have a choice about what to do or not do. The law of karma teaches that you have a choice in each new moment of what response your heart and mind will bring to the situation. Wake up to life, to all its choices and possibilities for change. Allow your choices to arise from the depths of your true na-ture, not your ideas about yourself.
