Change the Angle



The other day my sister called with something that had upset her. When I heard what it was that bothered her about a recent interaction it seemed that the best approach would be to 're-set' or 'do-over' her approach. Not unlike taking your furniture and shifting it into a more comfortable arrangement for a better feel, a 'do-over' lets us take another angle in a moment that can have immediate results with lasting implications.

I have been impressed with how making a quick conscious decision to take another perspective, emotionally or psychologically, can change the moment and the outcome. I have learned energetic acrobatics that come in very handy in creating more life ease. Hurrah!
