Who am I? Who do I want to become? What’s my unique potential? What gives me joy? And how can I be of service to the world?
As we step into the new year, crafting resolutions and setting intentions pulls us towards envisioning the realization of our dreams. Yet, despite our aspirations, a significant portion of our efforts often fail. Why? Because beneath our conscious desires, unconscious programs quietly guide our actions, shaping our identities, and thus, our way of looking at and responding to the world.
The profound insight that "What we believe, we become," articulated by Buddha over two millennia ago, captures a timeless truth. Contemporary scientists in the field of body-mind connection, epigenetics, and consciousness evolution like Dr. Joe Dispenza and Dr. Bruce Lipton shed further light on this notion: Your mind creates your reality. Your mind’s images shape your reality through the intricate chemistry of the brain. Without us realizing it, inner beliefs and protocols that are in contrast with our desires pull us back into old patterns, like an invisible force that is challenging to grasp.
So, how can we overcome this and transform our lives for the better? Here is a sequence of six scientifically grounded steps to help you update your mind, redefine your identity, and actualize the life you envision:
1. Abundance mindset: Rewire your inner operating system
Everything starts with your mindset, therefore cultivating an abundance mindset is the most important first step. Challenge scarcity thinking by consciously rewiring your inner operating system: Replace limiting beliefs and dissolve old feelings of guilt and unworthiness through techniques like self-hypnosis, mantras, and deep meditations, and diligently cultivate an abundant mindset. Permit yourself to have it all.
2. Heart power activation: Create brain-heart coherence
Harness the potent energy of your heart by fostering coherence between your thoughts, emotions, and actions. This practice strengthens your inner guidance and intuition, which prevents you from pursuing goals that are not in alignment with who you are. Engage in heart-focused breathing and cultivate emotions of love, gratitude, and compassion to synchronize your brain and heart. Explore techniques for creating brain-heart coherence, i.e. by using the resources of the HeartMath Institute.
3. Creative visioning: A superpower in envisioning new realities
Unlock the transformative potential of your mind by immersing yourself in visualization practices. Visualize your desired outcomes with clarity and conviction, allowing your imagination to pave the way for manifestation. Make creative visioning a daily ritual, beginning each day by emotionally tapping into your Future Self and immersing yourself in your desired future.
4. Mood/Vision board: Make your dreams tangible
Externalize your dreams and aspirations by crafting a mood or vision board. Many people start here, skipping the steps 1, 2 and 3. A vision board can be a powerful tool, thus it’s important to make sure that you don’t end up putting other peoples’ dreams on your board, but only those that truly matter to you. Curate images, words, and symbols that resonate with your goals and purpose in life, serving as tangible reminders of your vision.
5. Goal setting: Transform aspirations into actionable objectives
Translate your aspirations into concrete goals by setting clear, specific objectives. Break down larger goals into manageable steps and establish timelines for achievement, empowering yourself to progress systematically.
6. Kickstarter: Take the first step today
Embark on your transformation journey by taking the initial step today. Whether it involves making a phone call, drafting a plan, or committing to a new habit, every small action propels you closer to embodying your desired reality.
In essence, the process of updating your mind and identity is a journey of unfoldment and self-actualization. By consciously reshaping your thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors through dedicated routines, you unlock the potential to create a reality that aligns with your deepest desires. Moreover, you become receptive to new insights propelling you towards your unique next level and contributing to collective transformation. So let your vision guide you, and embrace the transformative power of your mind to manifest your most amazing and fulfilling life.
