Thought provoking prompts designed to deepen self awareness, exploration and insight.
Consider your situation without judgement; be present, trust yourself, be curious, and see what your innate intelligence wants to reveal to you.
Consider using images and metaphors to answer any questions you may have about this challenge; they are a powerful methodology for tapping into your creative intelligence. Allow yourself to think differently (by thinking with images, or wondering what other views might be) so that any restrictive thought patterns begin to become clear.
Ask Yourself...
What is the underlying story you are buying into about this situation?
.If you were to think of yourself as an ecosystem in this situation, how would you describe it? (Is your ecosystem like a desert–dry and vast, a snowscape–cold and windy, an ocean– wild or calm, a forest–thick with trees and shrubs, perhaps a skyscape or mountain? Or a flower or animal? Or something entirely different?)
What does this image reveal to you about this situation?
.What other ways might there be to think about your current situation / what other views might there be even if they are not your views?
.What are you willing to let go of in this situation? (It could be words you repeat to yourself, relationships, behaviours, foods…) What can you imagine is possible if you have made these changes?
.Think of an image/landscape you would like to describe related to this situation. What do you believe these images are telling you about yourself–what you are wanting more of or less of?
What do you believe these images are telling you about yourself?
.What is one action you can take to improve your relationship with yourself and/or others at this moment related to this situation?
.What is one small action you might take as you become clearer about this challenge to move through it with greater ease?
