Guiding Feelings

I base the choices I make on feelings. There are feelings I move towards and feelings I move away from. This is not a set of hard and fast rules. It is more of a gentle guide to what feels appropriate in each moment. The list is in no particular order. The idea of ordering it does not feel appropriate. One doesn’t seem more important than another. Together they create a way of being that feels wonderful.

I move towards the feeling of:

Expansion

Inclusion

Vulnerability

Courage

Simple

Honesty

Generosity

Consciousness

Being supportive

Cooperation

Joy

Practical

Abundance

Flexibility

New

Yes

Excitement

Appropriate

Insecurity

Doubt

Gratitude

Silly

Responsibility

I move away from the feeling of:

Contraction

Exclusion

Being defended

Fear

Complicated

Dishonesty

Greed

Unconsciousness

Being against

Competition

Despair

Spiritual

Lack

Stiffness

Stagnant

No

Boredom

Inappropriate

Certainty

Knowing

Expectation

Serious

Reactivity
