Have you ever wondered about that inner voice you hear? Who is speaking? And who is the voice speaking to?
Is the voice lifting you up or pushing you down?
Is the voice helping you make decisions or making your decisions difficult?
Is the voice convincing you to take action or has it convinced you not to?
There are times the voice listens to your body, telling you of hunger, thirst, or need of sleep. There are other times when it listens to your mind, telling you to question, to learn, to problem solve. These are times when the inner voice makes sense, it is a collaborator, an ally. There is congruence.
And then there are times it negotiates with you, telling you reasons you should or should not do something… it is indecisive or in conflict with your instincts. At these moments I wonder who is talking to who? When the scales tips and the decision is made, whose decision was it? Where does the incongruence come from?
Is there a path we can travel where we live in full congruence with ourselves? Can we find a path where our inner voice always acts in our best interest? Where we do not argue with ourselves? Is this a path worth seeking, or are we indecisive by nature and require internal conflict?
What does your inner voice think when it hears this question: Can our internal voice be harmonious?
Is that a realistic goal or an unrealistic expectation?
