Let Qualities Use You
Let Power Use You During Corona – IMMUNIZATION PART V
Want to thank client SJ whose hypnotherapy session yesterday inspired this motivating post.
In conventional sense and perception, we think we use the qualities we employ in our life but in truth the qualities of life are using us. This distortion of perception – that we use qualities – causes us to block those qualities whenever our life does not comport to our familiar, typical or programmed use of them. Such is the case with this pandemic that has essentially brought the world – as we know it – to a screeching halt. To consciously allow power to use you during these unprecedent, extraordinary times resets the Power equation on behalf of liberation.
During that hypnotherapy session with SJ who is pursuing an entertainment career (like many in my Practice’s client base) being blindsided with TV and film productions shutting down in the throughs of this pandemic has triggered feeling from helplessness and confusion to all out panic. (SJ is on the lesser end of that spectrum while other clients are on the other end of that reaction).
What was revealed in the hypno session was the idea of letting creativity use him rather than him trying to “figure out” how to leverage his creativity under these unprecedented times. This proposition, in perception, reverses the power dynamic from a limited use of creativity to creativity’s unlimited use of you!
The idea of allowing a quality of Life to use you is not a quizzical mind-game puzzle, but rather, it is a perception adjustment that unties the unlimited qualities of life from being filtered through a panicked, reactionary, history-limited use of them.
Okay, that last sentence was a mouthful. Essentially and in truth, the qualities of Life such as creativity, love, joy, peace, confidence and abundance are natural realities of Life – not (anthropomorphically speaking) man-made. We do not create things in life but rather Life is using us to create through. We just perceive that “we” create things.
Every idea ever conceived has been “triggered” by something; to use frequency parlance, the “vibration frequency” of creativity inspires a creative thought and therefore we create, invent, develop novel approaches, express artistry and the like. Creativity is using us!
And if these intimidating and overwhelming times do not present an opportunity for creativity to use us from an unlimited frequency of potential, I can’t think of a more opportune moment. This is a crucial moment in time to cede our availability to this unlimited vantage point, from our constricted, panicked, reactionary vantage point of thinking “we” use creativity.
Consider the Life quality of Creativity’s unlimited vantage point using you as opposed to you using creativity based on the five or ten ways you are familiar historically or conventional with “using” it. Infinite potential versus the five ways you might think to use it, hmmmm…I’d go with Creativity’s unlimited vantage point using me rather than rely on my limited perception and use of creativity. Hands down. No brainer. Easy-Peasy decision.
Practically, what this means is that you become the “receiver” of the appropriate ways Creativity desires to use you during what appears as constricting, limiting times. This is not airy-fairy thinking; it is logic unbound.
From Creativity using you, you reveal practical and pragmatic means to leverage creativity for generating income, utilizing your skills and welcoming opportunities that are outside the “box” of conventionality.
This is not about you having a “creative personality” or not; it is about recognizing that all of life is a creative endeavor. Allow It to use Its unlimited ingenuity, freedom and license to Create through you – not from you. This subtle shift in perception – that Creativity is using you rather than you attempting to devise creative ways to survive these fearful times – is the difference between panic, worrisome actions versus appropriate, suitable means of thriving – not just surviving.
This principle of Life-qualities using you has broad context. Desire to have peace while moving through these tumultuous times? Then let Peace use you. Desire to genuinely feel joy in the midst of these “dire” circumstances? Then let Joy use you. Desire Abundance during layoffs, cutbacks and shutdowns? Then allow Abundance to use you. No airy-fairy, delusional thinking of positivity here – just logic unbound.
The question that might understandably come to mind is, “Well, just how do I allow a Quality to ‘use me?’ Simple. Let go of the ‘how’ inquiry and focus on the ‘what.’ Inwardly welcome Creativity or other desired quality to ‘use you.’ Mentally, “invite” it to use you. Recognize that these qualities exist independent of your heretofore “use” of them. They simply are.
This establishes a security in the quality itself than in your historical use of the quality, fraught with good and bad experiences of said quality. Independent qualities are not subjective – not subject to our relative perception of them. Qualities themselves are pure. Let them use you.
