We don’t experience life outside of us. We experience it inside.

At any moment you are experiencing life in a very specific way. This inner experience can only happen inside of you. The circumstances of your life are outside, but how you experience them is inside. When you are full of joy, it’s inside of you. When you are full of fear and upset, it’s inside.

We don’t notice that we are having an internal experience because this experience is not a thing. It’s more of an energy and it happens in a realm beyond words. For example, you can accurately describe a chocolate chip cookie as a thing, but can you accurately describe the experience of eating one? No. You can’t because it’s an inner experience. There are no words that can accurately describe how you feel at any moment.

Since our inner experience is not a thing, we don’t notice that it exists, but it does exist. It shapes our actions and determines what happens in our lives. When you are in the experience of love, great things happen. When you are in a state of fear and upset, negative things happen.

We think that our inner experience is determined by our circumstances, but this is an illusion that will keep us stuck forever. Our inner experience is not determined by what happens. It’s determined by how we relate to what happens. When you change how you relate to life, you change how you experience life. This in turn changes your actions and what happens around you. You have the ability to create an incredible life, but this won’t happen by itself. There are concepts to learn, issues to heal, and action to take. I can walk you through the steps.
