Curious that scientists claim our oldest memories are held in the cells of the cerebral cortex. I'd say it's a good thing those cells hang around!And our hearts...those life-long heart cells pump approximately 2.5 billion times during an average life span, moving 2,000 gallons of blood through the body each day. Those cells also emit our strongest electro-magnetic field--the source of our intuitive wisdom and "carrier" of our emotional energy out into the world.
No matter which human cell we are talking about, however brief or enduring its lifespan, when you get to the smallest entity within that cell that science has been able to identify--its sub-atomic particles--there is a point when all goes poof! and what remains is a/the void.
It is existence before existence, so to speak, and thus the source of all existence. Sub-atomically, this makes you a no-thing and an every-thing at the same time!
As you walk, talk, eat and sleep today, realize 37.2 trillion cells are working in unison so that you can successfully live.
How does this miracle of cooperation change your relationship to your physical being and perception of wellness?
Realize that "you" are older than practically every cell in your body. How does this change your relationship to your life stories? What do you need to carry and what can you let go of, because it is literally no longer you?
Realize your no-thing-ness and your every-thing-ness. If you are indeed this little and this big, how does this shift your perspective on the circumstances and events of your life?
Realize your energetic field, radiating 10 feet in all directions from your heart. If you fully inhabited this space with your consciousness, how would that affect your movement in the world? Your relationships?
Realize that what you think, feel, and want is the "executive suite" overseeing this "community" of YOU. If you fully embraced this responsibility, what would that look like? Which leadership qualities would you want to see in action?
This is how magnificent you are...and how powerful, too! |
