A conductor allows each member of the orchestra to become powerful. Are we leading in our lives? What is ours to do? Transformation happens when we shift our view of the world, when we see that what we have been doing is hiding, taking ourselves away, not participating, not engaging, not taking risks, and sitting in the back row of our lives.
When we are triggered, what is the belief that is underlying this feeling we are experiencing? What are the thoughts that are taking us away from the present moment? Often, there is a constant chatter in our mind. Our hope is to refrain from harmful speech and actions, including speech directed to ourselves. According to Pema Chodron, we can live beautifully with uncertainty and change.
What will we call our year? What is our word?
