Seems many of us are experiencing PTED (Post Traumatic Election Disorder). Whether you are on the left or on the right, whatever your point of view, it is an uneasy time. As a rule, the first 100 days of any change is considered the “honeymoon phase”. A time when we embrace our connection to each other before we move forward to accomplish our dreams, our goals.
All change does take us out of our comfort zone and this change is a rocky road for sure. Our society is divided like never before. Or is it? When we look back to the history of our country, we find the many roads that brought about change. Our founding fathers exhibited courage as they took a stand for their vision. History recalls them as an American Hero. Only a real history buff will find the back story to the actual way it was played out.
Who were the men of honor? Who played dirty? Who followed the rules? Who questioned the rules? Who made new rules?
Perhaps this is a wake up call to speak out. Our society has found the calm after the activism of the 60's. What is happening on the national stage is happening within each of us. We are a part of the whole. Society is stepping up in the name of democracy.
We are refusing to sit in denial, confusion, anger or despair. However, the disturbing issue is that we are out of control. Our positions carry the passionate weight of our emotions. The problem continues as we hold so tight to our views that the discussion and arrangement of the terms of transition comes to a halt. Negotiations fail and we all go back into our corners awaiting the next round in the political arena.
On a personal level the political merry go round builds stress in our body, mind and spirit. Have you noticed any changes in your physical well-being? Are you easily irritated, fatigued, experience headaches, poor digestion, increase in blood pressure, lack of mental clarity or lost libido, just to name a few. Does any of this sound familiar?
A meditation practice benefits everyone in managing their stress level. Just to be clear, meditation is the practice of stillness. It is not just for new age people seeking spiritual guidance through ancient rituals. Think about it, all organized religions promote a form of prayer that in essence quiets life's drama. For those folks who never seek internal answers from a Higher Source, know that being in nature or sitting quietly in a private space relaxes the body, clears the mind and opens the flow of wellness.
For those who say, “ I cannot meditate, my thoughts never stop”. Well yes, that is a real concern. Our minds never stop. Meditation is the process of allowing our thoughts to flow. When we attach a story to our thoughts that is when we stop the process. In time, you will be able to catch yourself, stop the story and return to the natural rhythm of your breathe. It is called a practice for exactly that reason. Even the monks who dedicate their life in silence need to continue it as a practice.
Meditation is the ultimate way to stretch and strengthen our mind. It allows the expansion of our views and awareness. We as a people will be able to be more flexible, accepting, gracious and peaceful.
Just for a moment, let us pause and take a breathe. Quoting Ghandi, “We must be the change we wish to see in the world”. Searching for the peace and harmony in our society is futile when we are not peace and harmony. True change comes from within and then we can start the negotiation process.
