I found myself walking through whole foods the other day feeling irritated at people cutting me off and then noticing myself cutting people off as I walk through the busy isles. I checked in with myself at that moment and noticed there was space for me to be more conscious, to be more patient. So often we are running around from one place to the next or not even a place to be and we are in such a hurry. We become so unaware of the other people around us more often than not. I find myself saying things like “people annoy me” or “who does this guy think he is?”. It is the inner resistance voice coming up. It happens when circumstances are looking stressful in my life experience. My irritation level is on high alert. When circumstances are looking good this doesn’t happen so often. So being more conscious of those moments when those impatient thoughts and feelings come. I notice those feelings and then in the next moment make a new choice to allow someone to go in front of me or smile at the hard workers. As we bring more consciousness to these types of inner resistant thoughts we are able to transmute them on a higher level. It happens of itself over time. I am the first to admit I get agitated easily and with that brings a greater agent for change. Bashar says, “It’s the rubber band effect, the further you shoot into the darkness, the further you shoot into the light”. So do not fret if you find you have a lot of resistance inside of you.
