Trying too hard interrupts the flow of our understanding and our happiness and our creating. As you notice and get curious about any worries or negative thinking that pop up in your day, remembering that some of our old buried feelings are irrelevant now will stop you from trying too hard. Some of those old buried feelings and messages that are intensifying what we feel now, have been stuck in your body and mind from a very long time ago and will be irrelevant to what’s happening today. Just the noticing and curiosity alone will be enough to release them.
Just the act of noticing when we’re worrying or catastrophizing or thinking negatively – knowing that the message of it may be irrelevant after all this time – relaxing into observing it, curious about it, open to the idea that it may or may not even be ours – is enough for the irrelevant stuff to disappear… pfft pffft pffft.
Gone…
That easily…
And pffft, that fast.
Because there is no message anymore. The time for that understanding has long gone. Does that make sense?
Even when understanding the old buried stuff is relevant to what’s happening now, the same noticing and curiosity sets us up for the ahaa moment that solves everything – effortlessly. It moves us through that change place and makes creating and changing what we care about a whole lot smoother and easier.

There’s wonderful creative solutions at the bottom of those worries when we can relax into observing them, be curious about them, open to the idea that it may not even be our worry. Have I said that often enough now? 🙂 We teach this creative state of being that we call the Einstein Factor, because it brings such reliable flashes of genius.
