Personally, I was living my life as many people do– working in a career that I didn’t like, but was okay and paid my bills and gave me a comfortable lifestyle.  I was having romance, but it wasn’t completely fulfilling.  There was always a thread of disconnection that would eventually lead to separation.  It was the same thing with my health.  I was fit and strong, but I had an internal issue that was slowly draining away my Life Force Energy, and I didn’t know it.  My fit and lean body was a mask for an internal process that would eventually leave me utterly depleted and broken.

I wasn’t thriving in my life, but I was comfortable and happy enough.  I thought that my mood swings and bouts of depression and self-doubt were a normal part of life.  I mean, all of my friends were expressing discontent and irritation with their lives and I thought it was the norm.  Honestly, I didn’t know that thriving was an option for me in the circumstances in which I was living.  I thought that I would be thriving after I made a certain amount of money, found the right man and bought a house and reached a certain point on the career ladder.   I didn’t know that thriving was my birthright and that if I couldn’t realize my magnificence within myself as I was in that moment, a career, marriage and house were not going to give it to me.  It didn’t matter what I accomplished.  If I did not feel magnificent inside, then all of my achievements were going to be tainted by a shadow of doubt, sadness and dissatisfaction.

In the morning, I awake and contemplate my navel.  Well, I don't contemplate my navel, but rather the spiraling vortex around it called the sacral chakra.  The sacral chakra is the energy center in charge of emotions and creativity.  The sacral chakra is responsible for a load of other stuff, too, but for this missive, it's the emotions and the creativity that are important.

I awake and head for my navel, because I live my life from the inside out, and being aware of my emotional state and the blockages to my creativity are important to help me understand how I am going to flow with the universe, or resist the universe.  The key for me to live my life from the inside out is to be aware of my feelings in the moment.  I know lots of people who awaken and contemplate the external world-- when they have to be at work, how they're going to manage the kids, with whom they're going to meet, what's for dinner... For me, though, there really is just one question:  How do I feel?

I cannot emphasize enough, the importance of this question in the Inside Out lifestyle.  (Hahahaha!  I literally just made up!)  The 'Inside Out Lifestyle.'  Kinda ridiculous, but kinda true, as well. What I mean is that I believe that what we experience in the external world is a direct reflection of what we are experiencing inside ourselves.  The outside world is a mirror reflecting our beliefs and thoughts back to us.  So when we look around us and see a wonderful world full of possibility, enthusiasm and curiosities, it is a reflection of a consciousness that is creative, optimistic and thoughtful.  And when we look around us and see a frightening world full of crime, danger and limitation, it is a reflection of a consciousness that is fearful, doubtful, and short-sighted.

The thing is, at any given moment, our conscious awareness can flipflop between these two (or any other number) of mindsets.  And it is by being aware of our feelings that we know what mindset (consciousness) we are occupying.  So when I awaken in the morning and I contemplate my navel, I'm basically checking in with myself and asking, "Hey!  Who are you today?"  Am I awaking with a fearful consciousness, plagued by doubt and worry about my choices?  Or am I awaking with an expansive view of myself and the world?  Most of the time, I wake up feeling fucking awesome!  When I was back in Long Beach,  I would awaken at 4am, turn on my Hindu mantra, sing along, light incense, praise the gods and then go to boot camp, run a few miles, cool down, stretch, swim, get home, have breakfast and then get to work!  Booyah!  During all this, I would be in full awareness of my feelings at any given time.  When my feelings were expansive and positive, I knew that I was in the flow, but when dark, heavy feeling came in, I knew that my consciousness, like a garden with gopher problem, needed tending.  And I would set aside time to nurture myself when my schedule allowed.  I loved my work, my home, my friends, and my Inside Out lifestyle.

Now that I am in Spain, I am still very much living my life from the Inside Out, of course, but the activities in my life have changed.  For example, I'm not exercising so much, and my work priorities have shifted to more coaching and more focused writing on my blog and my book.  BOOYAH!  Living in Spain, coaching and writing?  WHAAAT?  Who knew Heaven could exist on Earth?

I first searched my heart for its deepest desire.  And then once I had become aware of what my heart wanted, I then looked at a few of the ways that it could have what it wanted.  And then I looked at the plethora of ways that my egoic mind said that it could NOT have what it wanted.  That was when I pulled out my toolkit of Bullshit Busters (also known as Shadow Work.) What I've learned over the last few years of living the Inside Out lifestyle is that the only thing that stops me from having my desires is my resistance to my desires.  We clearly live in a universe that supports us.  But we have ideas, thoughts and beliefs that doubt and deny what is our energetic right.Just like your lungs are meant to naturally suck up air, your being is naturally meant to suck up success.  By doing Shadow Work, we are able to cut through the limitations, the fears and the doubts so that our psyches can be shiny, bright and Innocent.  That is to say, we can get out of the way of Providence by releasing our resistance to Providence.

SOOOOO, what I would like to propose to you is an opportunity to work with me so that I can teach you how to live your life from the inside out.  I want to teach you how you can use this way of living to achieve your goals, realize your dreams, and make your life even more supercalifragilisticexpialidocious than it is now.
