Free to Act – by Celina Tonkin

As Introverts, we are highly critical of ourselves and sometimes scare ourselves out of action.

We are so used to our critical habitual thoughts and feelings that keep us stuck in inaction that we believe them automatically and give them undeserving power.The way to freedom to act in the face of these thoughts is awareness. We can’t take a powerful action until we are aware of what has stopped us at the first place.

This meditation will help you discover what are the thoughts and feelings that stop you, to acknowledge them and then transcend them. Do not be fooled by the simplicity of the meditation. It is one thought at the time that makes up the story of feeling stopped and unable to act. Awareness will enable you to familiarise yourself with those thoughts, one thought at the time.

Be like that little six year-old who was screaming for his mum because he was petrified of the man standing behind the door and the boy could not move, until his mother shone the light at the door and the boy discovered the scary man was just old clothes hanging. The thoughts that stop you from the action are like those old clothes. They had their ‘use-by’ date and now it is time to discard them.

If you practice this meditation you will have brand new confidence to take the actions that you want to take.

Tapping while meditating will enable you to disconnect from the negative energy of those thoughts even faster.
