Becoming Non-Reactive: Finding Calm Through Silence and Pausing

You're listening to the Family of Taygeta podcast.

A new message from Leika. Becoming non-reactive.

Beloved friends of Earth, you have decisions to make and plans to pursue.

It seems by your own projection that things will work smoothly.

Moments of change always create variables.

The importance of maintaining calm as your story unfolds will be an effective way to flow and succeed.

I come to you now through the noise of the world in the quiet places between your thoughts.

All I ask of you now is to become still.

There is a great deal of difference between silence and emptiness.

Silence is where you begin to hear yourself.

The mind releases its grip. The body remembers that it does not need to stay in a state of defense.

Silence is where your deeper wisdom has been waiting for you.

These are moments to contemplate life and feel truth.

You need not react to anything. You are safe in the restful light of being.

In your world, you are taught to respond to every word, every sound, and every emotion.

This is not wise, as a chain of further reactions arrives with others communicating.

You are allowed to watch the storm and feel the wind without becoming part of it.

Breathe and become a gentle breeze that dissipates with love.

Remain silent until your inner knowing becomes clearer than the noise surrounding you.

Become familiar with the silent words of your guide.

This is the gift of being non-reactive. Your body and mind will function at an optimum level, and peace will cover your communication.

When you recognize irritability or anger in self or another, pause.

When circumstances appear to demand an immediate emotional response, pause.

Take a breath, then another. You have now created a sacred space.

Within this space is your freedom. There is a moment between what happens and what you choose to do with what happens.

That moment may be small, but within it lives tremendous power.

When the nervous system calms, the world changes with your own perspective.

Maybe the facts remain the same, but you, my friend, are not the same as minutes before.

You have become your own best ally. You are learning to trust in the innate power of your soul.

You will learn that everyone does not need to be rescued.

You will know for certain that many issues are none of your concern.

You will at last stop trying to control the narrative because life will unfold with stories planned long before your arrival.

Your disdain, amazement, or shock has little to do with the choices another is intent on making.

Just relax and go within to find your path.

Silence is a sanctuary. Within this sacred experience, you will begin to recognize the difference between intuition and impulse.

Impulse demands, rushes, and is loud. Intuition brings wisdom and direction with quietness.

Become the observer, and you will know the path to take.

I love you so. Leika.
