Today we wish to talk about your attachment to material items.
When you receive new beautiful items, what do you do with them in the short term and in the long term? Do you use them to maximize your enjoyment? Or do you put them away, to be used only on special occasions?
What if we were to tell you that a horrendous event would occur at the end of the week or at the end of the month and that all of your belongings would perish? How does such a revelation or prophecy land within your soul? Would you realize that none of your memories are really attached to those items themselves, only the energetic imprint of those moments? Would you be happy to be rid of all of the belongings that tie you down to a lifestyle that doesn't really value? Would you mourn their loss?
We would invite you in to look at how others respond or react, short term and long term, to when their lives change dramatically, where they lose everything that they once had. Some never do recover, and some really prosper. What is the difference in the reactions?
Some recognize that they were simply belongings and that they can still connect to the energetically imprint of their past and others truly struggle with the loss and the devastation of how that loss feels within their lives.
There is no right or wrong response to such an event but we do invite you in to give thought to whether your belongings add value to your lives or whether they distract you and overwhelm you? And what if you had to choose your 100 most favorite items, what would those be? And why?
Within the query is all that you need to know on how to successfully get through this next year. It is a different form of attachment theory than what our another has been studying which is based on your relationship with others and how you respond and react to stressors as well as deep connection.
Best answer wins!
