From the author: the article was published on the website of the Center for Positive Psychology “TAK!” www.treningi.me Life in the flow. Last weekend I had the opportunity to attend the training of Petra and Petra Burlanov, the founders of simoron. It began with this exercise : you had to blindfold yourself and go somewhere. The exercise turned out to be difficult for many: people bumped into each other, perceiving their bodies as annoying obstacles, began to push, fight and got stuck in place, increasing the heap and attracting more and more people into it. Some, having stumbled upon “heaps”, turned back, without the risk of being trampled and with their eyes scratched out. I remembered myself as a student at a training in body-oriented therapy in the same task. I then broke through to the goal faster than anyone and was the only one who needed medical help; my hand was severely cut by the manicure of one of the participants. Then I continued to “make my way” through life: two higher degrees and no time for my personal life, work as a business coach with a good salary, right away after college and a broken spine on a business trip, personal growth mixed with lack of sleep. I won everything I wanted from life. And a few years later I gave birth to a daughter and this was the most powerful obstacle in moving forward, which I could not cope with, I was tired of butting heads and causing pain to the person closest to me.. For the first time in my life, I retreated and chose another strategy and fell into miserable despair. Time passed in search of a way out of the situation, and I realized that you can live in achieving your goals not only by clearing the way with your elbows, experiencing negative emotions, encountering obstacles or retreating, reassuring yourself that “it’s not fate” .That people are divided not only into subversives and apostates, which were classified in Burlana’s training. I learned that you can bypass obstacles with love by touching them in order to know where they are and move where you need. Returning to our exercise: it’s stupid to fight and push if you are gently hugged and walked around. It’s the same in life. We ourselves, through our internal attitudes, create a struggle with the world. And he begins to play games with us that we ourselves provoke. How to live in the flow and swim, avoiding obstacles with pleasure? This, in my opinion, is taught not so much by traditional psychology, but by spiritual practices. In them, the world is an integral part of you. What surrounds you is just your reflection. And the world plays with you the games that you offer it. If you want to play fight with him, there will be obstacles. And if you want to play with him in love, there will be support! One of the methods that helps you go with the flow and achieve your goals gently and lovingly is Reiki. By practicing this method, you begin to trust the world and live in harmony and harmony with it. And we will be glad to open this method of interaction with the world for you at the 1st level of Reiki in Moscow, December 4. © 2010-2012 Center for Positive Psychology "SO!" Olesya Dobrovolskaya.
