Today is a relaxed conversation, but it’s a big one. But it’s also something that made me thinking in and touched me in the heart realm? We are going to be asking the question, “What is it like to always be thinking outside the box consistently?”
When I got this email, this note and I was like, “Damn what is it like thinking in my head?” I’ve have realized for 14 years I was put through a lot different experiences that showed me that, every time I thought I knew how to fix something, the body showed me otherwise. There was never, ever “the right way” to do something. By trial and error I realized that you can never know something well enough and there is not one way to do something. Especially when it comes to the body. The body’s always going to be a variable in the change. So it was humbling for me to learn all that and now that I think about – think about the experience I’ve had, I’m thankful for that humbling experience. Thinking about It, touched me and realized that, “Shoot. You can’t think only one way works”.
So I started really looking at how my brain works and realize that it’s kinda like seeing a whole bunch of different stairways to the same place. They all work. So if you can go to different modalities and different thought process, they all work. It’s just a matter of realizing that if you’re going to think outside the box, number one is: What would work for the situation that’s at hand? So in my world is, I’m looking at a client body, which way works for them and makes that sustainable for their precise issue? I want you to really start focusing on the concept of there is no one right answer, there are many different right answers and that changes the way that you look at things. You have to look to it through a child’s eye of saying, “Oh, that’s new, that’s new.” Because every time I did that, I latched onto this is the one way, I was eventually burned in some way not because I did something wrong, it’s because the body would evolve past the easy rudimentary way that I would work with that area. So if I was working with a case just from a physical standpoint and they were getting– we’re going to go through a lot of aches and pains now, like a shoulder pain, if I dealt with that specifically on a physical level and I never deal with the emotional or mental, I’d see myself that it’s not working as efficiently, something else is going wrong, that’s when I started to realize that it didn’t work, it didn’t work as well. It’s because I’m not going after the right thing that the body is showing me at that precise moment. It’s very, very fun to be in this world because then it’s always keeping you on your toes, you are always looking at it from a brand new eye. That’s what thinking outside the box is in the world of restorative therapy and health care and working with the human body – it’s nothing is ever right. So I was seeing some people coming to me and I was like, “All right why don’t you go out and try acupuncture? Why don’t you go and try this? Why don’t you go and try that?” They all work and that’s why I love referring out in that world because sometimes when I’m doing clears up something but they don’t even realize that the driver of the whole thing is coming from a different world, an energetic world, an emotional world, a mental world that they might need to get a different person saying something different to have them change something itself internally.
And now that’s what thinking outside the box is, guys. It’s being able to understand number one: Vision or right answer and there’s no wrong answer. There are just pros and cons to everything, and also there are many ways to solve an issue. So when you look at your problem you start asking yourself different questions, not like, “Why are you doing this to me, body?” Because your body is trying to tell you something, but what else is happening? What is the different way that I can deal with this? Those are the questions that you want to start asking – open-ended questions like “What is the different way I can do this? “Who else can help me with this?” Because you’re not broken. You’re not going to ask, “Who else can fix me? Who else can help me understand what you’re trying to say to me?” Because your body is just trying to communicate.
So I want you guys to really focus on that aspect of the situation. There’s not just one way of dealing with it – especially not just in the physical – you have to deal with the mental and the emotional – as well as, what else is out there? What else is out there in the world that can help you navigate and get you to understand what’s happening inside your body? Your body is trying to tell you something. What is it? Who else knows a different language that your body is talking in? Until next time, folks, if this helped, please share. I’d love to get you to understand that it’s never just the physical; we have to consistently think outside the box. We’re gonna be doing this next month a lot in the aspect of: We’re seeing a pain, it could be this or it could be that. It’s never just physical, so start looking at many different ways.
