This week the Mindshifters group watched the second half of the lecture by Dr. Michael Ryce titled Purpose, Personal Power and Commitment. In this half of the lecture Dr. Ryce traces out a predictable path of discomfort, disease and death which results when one’s natural enthusiasm for life is denied and suppressed. This process of denial and suppression leads to increased tension, frustration, projection, externalization and conflict which has us focusing outside of ourselves for the solution to our pain.

This pathway makes clear how the denial and suppression of mental/emotional energy begins to interfere with the functioning of the physical organs, and eventually shuts down such important systems as the endocrine system of the human body. When the endocrine system is not working properly it leads to fatigue and eventually a complete shut-down of the mind/body energy system.

This is just more detail and more confirmation about how the mind/body energy system works and about how we each create our own internal reality, both physically and mentally. This also helps to explain the phenomenal success of The Reality Management Worksheet process. The reason for the power and effectiveness of The Reality Management Worksheet is that it clearly helps us focus on what we are doing to create our thoughts, which produce our emotions and thereby either build up our energy system, or tear it down.

We are made of the energy of Love and designed to contain and extend that energy and that energy alone. Anytime we engage in thoughts which produce an energy unlike Love, we begin to degrade the mind/body energy system and create dis-ease, which eventually results in break down of the physical energy system we call the body.

If we want a different experience of life, we must choose a different reason for living. Once we are clear about our reason for living and our purpose in life, that purpose can be the focusing lens with which we choose our goals. When we are paying attention and choose to let only Loving intentions be used as the building blocks of our goals, then only Loving goals and Loving behaviors will result.

We come from Love, we are made of Love, we are Love. Everything else is false.
