Inquiry:
Inquiring into the fundamental questions of life is essential to being truly alive and awakening our full potential.
When we allow the deeper questions in life to live within our consciousness, they invoke wisdom and presence, giving us the clarity to live in ways that bring fulfillment and happiness. We allow these questions to enter into our awareness by giving them space and actively engaging to them. There are several ways to explore inquiry questions: We can journal our responses to them.We can work with a partner, giving a monologue on our thoughts for 10 minutes while our partner just listens without feedback.Or we can talk out loud to pet or plant. Inquiry Questions: How do I protect or defend against vulnerability? What am I afraid will happen if I don’t defend myself against vulnerability? What have I not forgiven and why? What am I defending that inhibits forgiveness? (a story, a position, that I am right etc.) |
