It’s All About Perception
My article titled “It’s All About Perception” was recently featured on energy healer Deborah King’s website. You can read it here. I would love to hear your thoughts! Here is an excerpt below:
Since studying Ayurveda, I’ve learned that before I cast judgment on someone’s reaction, I do a quick “dosha assessment” and then usually have an ah-ha moment. My perception invariably changes and any possible misunderstanding tends to evaporate. Imagine how many relationships would be smoother if each person took the time to understand their partner’s unique constitution. I’m not making excuses for bad behavior here, but rather showing how a modification in our perception might change a potentially uncomfortable situation.
Then there’s the perception we have of our self and what’s happening around us that’s out of our control. If we can shift how we look at disappointment in our lives and instead see it as an opportunity for change and growth, we can move forward, instead of staying stuck in old patterns of negativity. A rainy day can go from a “ruined day at the beach” to a glorious chunk of time to burrow in, read a book, watch a good movie or do some clutter control. Likewise, if we always see ourselves as depressed and stagnant, chances are our perception will become our reality. Sometimes just bringing this into our awareness is enough to help make that shift towards a more positive outlook.
Love,

You actually make it seem really easy along with your presentation however I to find this matter to be actually one thing that I believe I’d never understand.
It kind of feels too complicated and very huge for
me. I’m looking ahead in your next publish, I will attempt to get
the grasp of it!
The beauty of Ayurveda is that it can be as simple or complicated as you want it to be! 🙂 It’s a journey of learning, but is basically just about getting to know your own body and what it needs. 🙂
