The Power Of Change Questions

The Power Of Change Questions

Use Quality Questions To Change Your Thoughts

The autumn equinox energies have brought a much-needed moment of bonfire energy — to burn the remnants of the old patterns.

It’s been intense. It has felt heavy as we walk the equinox corridor (the space between the solstices).

We are embedded within the ‘in between’ space of several things:

  • summer declining to winter
  • old to new timelines
  • outdated thoughts and feelings patterns into a higher vibrational space

From a 3D perspective, your mind answers thousands of questions every day. Literally, your brain processes up to 60,000 thoughts every day! Frankly, I pity the poor bastard who had to count all the thoughts in that scientific research!

But I wonder if you knew that most of your thoughts happen automatically. They are part of your subconscious program.

This month, my clinic clients are sharing their experience of thoughts that sound like:

  • Why is this difficult?
  • Why can’t I figure this out?
  • Why am I still stuck??

Here’s the thing. Your brain is not aware of what is real or not, it just plays the record. That’s right, your brain simply plays the program. Over and over and over again, until you change the program.

Your brain therefore, doesn’t judge or challenge those questions or thoughts, it simply searches for the evidence that continues to justify the program.

This isn’t a solution or an answer. This program is simply a loop.

If you took a little deep dive into your everyday mind’s thinking, you might realise that your brain is simply running a sequence or program of thoughts. This is what leaves us feeling stuck.

Those thoughts generate emotions which generate reactions.

But…

Your brain is pretty amazing. And that means something remarkable becomes possible if you allow yourself to observe and become curious about those thoughts.

So imagine what it might be like to be curious, and simply observe your conscious thoughts. Are they comfortable, or do they generate discomfort?

I wonder where you feel that discomfort in your body?

I wonder what you do to avoid feeling uncomfortable?

Are you seeing the enormity of the pattern that those simple, and sometimes random thoughts?

Change is possible.

You can guide your mind with different questions to utilise your brain to become curious the programmed thoughts.

You can ask simple questions like:

  • What might I be ready to release?
  • What opportunities might be emerging from this experience?
  • What would I notice if things were already improving?
  • What strengths within me are ready to be expressed?

If you took a nice long slow deep breath, and allow yourself simply be curious, I wonder if you might then notice how your mind begins searching for different answers.

Asking these types of quality questions activates your frontal lobes to ‘search’ for a solution. It’s a very gentle way of stepping up and out of a thought pattern.

And if you’re allowing yourself to sit in the sensations of your thoughts and feelings, you will become aware of how often those old, intrusive thoughts have been running.

Here’s the reality, when your focus changes, your energy begins to shift.

So today I’m curious…

What empowering quality question might you ask yourself next?
