Mastery of the Self

Conflict and stress are the driving force of life itself.

Growth doesn’t usually occur without friction and it’s that very energy that produces life and propels our movement through life.

Conflict triggers a chemistry deep within that can take you on a wild ride of emotional contrast between past-present- and future.
Because life friction can bring pleasure or it can bring pain.

Could conflict provide an opportunity to see the truth in what you keep hidden or don’t yet want to face?

“Conflict is the beginning of consciousness.”
~ M Ester Harding

Instead of believing your issues are taking place somewhere outside, it’s possible that the conflict is an energy arising inside you, from your past, triggerd in the reality of your now.

This energy may be arising for you to examine, confront, and heal yourself (and your relationships with others).

So, maybe conflict isn’t so much about what’s on the surface, but rather about the unspoken, untreated, and unhealed wounds of emotion you carry.

Can you use conflict to see your reflection in this mysterious mirror provided by life?

Whatever is repressed ‘in here’ finds expression in the situations you are caught up in ‘out there.’

Can you sit and feel the flood of emotions that surge through you with emotional awareness and wait to be clear before you act? Are you open to ‘intimacy’, vulnerability, and truth in your relationships with yourself and others?

Perhaps conflict comes to release you, heal you, and help you move forward.

Mastery is establishing awarness and maintain ing the boundary between what is happening outside and what is happening inside your body. To learn and respond to life with healthy self respect that let,s your life force flow.
