Somewhere deep in our belly, we know.

We know that who we have become is not the truth of who we are. We know that there are other factors at play, some we are willing to name and others we would rather avoid. We also know that the avoidance does not actually keep us safe, though it does feel familiar.

Familiarity breeds compliance to the familiar habits that once kept us safe. Nut now, they have become what keeps us prisoner inside our skin. What’s your most detrimental-yet-familiar habit? Did you know that there’s intelligence to you continuing to hold to it? Are you curious to discover what that intelligence might be?

Once you discover the intelligence, you might integrate its information, without losing your mind.

Recently, I came across this timeless essay by Louise LeBrun in which she explores mindful choice vs habituation. In it, she writes:

“Far more important than any single, particular choice is the underlying – and far too often, invisible – process for choosing that determines the way we move through the world. At this time in our human experience, the frequency and range of choices with which we are faced is offering up the opportunity for us to begin to notice that underlying process and to mindfully determine if it serves not only us but the unfolding future of our children and grandchildren.

The first step to bringing intentional impact back into the range of possibility is for us to define and take ownership of that underlying process and redefine it, as we see fit. To support that line of enquiry, I offer you a series of inner journeys designed to provoke the hidden to emerge into your awareness. These are not intended to shape any particular outcome but to assist you in identifying what long-forgotten layers of habituation may be determining your course of action, other than mindful choice.”

Immediately when I read this, I felt inspired to create something with it. Because the single most powerful choice we can make is to wake up to our habituated processes and intentionally choose an alternative way to live.

The line of enquiry Louise proposes are powerful when considered and engaged. I didn’t want this to stay a blog on the site; I wanted it to become an invitation for you to consider your reality differently.

Each of us has a familiar strategy that we engage: beating self up, shame, shunning, distraction, rage, outrage, dissociation, tunnel vision, etc. But what if this is simply a script you were handed that no longer fits?

If you’re noticing that your habits are hurting you, then you might consider a different line of enquiry about yourself. How else might I choose to live my life, today? How else might I choose to engage this moment? How else might I choose to listen to the authentic voice of my body?

Every model, every presupposition, every blog, every workshop, every invitation from WEL-Systems® is an opportunity to consider that how else. This is offered from many vantage points because we require to integrate layers in different ways. Evolution of Self is not linear, logical, or predictable. It is spiral, layered, and multifaceted.

In the habituated way of moving through the world, you’re taught to stuff it down, pretend it’s not there, fear it, hide it, diminish it, dismiss it, etc. This produces a predictable outcome in your life; the quality of your life will reflect to you if it’s working for you.

If it’s not, WEL-Systems offers you a different way to live, engage your triggers, and evolve by intention. This way of life is predicated on choice. When we know how to make aligned choices, our life reflects alignment. ‍

If you knew, without a shadow of a doubt, that you are a living godForce, how then, would you choose to live?

I don’t believe habits have anything to do with the creation of our meaningful, expansive and inspired life. In fact, all they do is actually impede our emergence.

If you’re noticing that ^ to be true for you, then I invite you to a five day writing experience and integration call I am facilitating.

It will include thee mindful choice vs habituation lines of inquiry Louise set out as a five-day guided email experience.

Together, we will explore questions around:

Day 1: How do you calibrate for ’truth’?

Day 2: What do you consider a ‘fact’?

Day 3: How much time do you invest in educating yourself through multiple input channels?

Day 4: How do you relate to authority?

Day 5: Do you prefer to lead or to follow?

This is for women curious about unpacking this line of inquiry with me and nine other women.

I don’t know what you’ll discover by the end of the experience, but I do know this: you will leave asking yourself different questions than the ones you arrived with. You won’t necessarily change your beliefs, but you will begin to question the hidden process through which your beliefs were formed.

And that’s a start to a whole ‘nother way of life.

If you want to explore these lines of inquiry together, I welcome you to mindfully choose it.
