Here is an audio of the Exercise. It it not completely the same as the written version as it goes a little more into creating sacred space for yourself. The written version is below as well. Cheers.
This is the written version of Final Exercise: Being Aware of Your Environment. Enjoy.
Walk into a room. Any room. Pick one sense at a time. How does the room “feel” to you? Hot? Cold? Warm? Inviting? Uneasy? How does it smell? Flowery? Musty? Look around. Is it dark? Is it brightly lit? Can the sun shine in? What do you hear? Do you hear clocks ticking? Technology blasting?
What draws your attention the most? What really sticks out to you? Use the rest of the information you are perceiving to fill in the picture of what that room is all about, or what is “normally” going on in that room. Do you want to stay? Or do you want to leave? Does it have a purpose for you? Is there a certain time you would like to be there and maybe other times you would not?
It is difficult to change the energy in places that are not our own. And harder yet to make any of these changes “stick”, as others have an influence on these places as well. The easiest energy to change is within ourselves. It is much easier to master control over what WE pay attention to, where we go, and what we do.
When you perceive something in an environment that you don’t really like, it is generally easier to leave than to stick around and to try to change it. It is always important to weigh whether the time, energy, and effort invested in trying to change something is really worth it, or do you have better things to do with your life? The answer is almost always that you have better things to do.
For the next little while, primarily hang around in environments that are supportive to you, and spend less time in environments that are less inviting. See if your life starts to improve a bit. Notice if your days become a little happier. Bad things may still happen, but they don’t impact you as much. In time, because you are not wasting so much of your energy trying to force an unsupportive environment to suit you, you should have tons time and energy for more enjoyable activities.
I realize this is all easier said than done. Baby steps. For now, simply work with all of your senses to perceive your environment and make better choices about where you want to hang out. That is all.
