coluMn Getting over the fear factor learning to look at life with an open mind by Jeni WeSt Satellites falling out of the sky, every inactive volcano becoming active, the earth spinning completely off its axis… Somewhere between morning sickness and finally being able to hold my newborn son, I believed wholeheartedly in these fear-based thoughts I’d contrived from hearsay, media and hype. I’d stay up for hours at night thinking about what to do and where to run and I was projecting all these fears onto my son. Then, something changed. With a shift in consciousness, I began looking at life differently. It was the beginning of something new: letting go of that which I could not change, and just accepting what is. How did I get to that realization? I was tired of feeling so low. Horrified to look at myself, I was always seeking change in others. But when I did finally look inward, I found the key, and answers to lifelong questions. Listening to my body instead of my ego, I became sensitive to the world around me. As a result, I am a better mother, a better friend, and life is good. Is it perfect? No way, not even close. I wouldn’t have it any other way. Change is certain. We are in continuous motion and evolution. By accepting this, we can embrace a new way of life, become more in touch with our rhythms, as well as the world’s. Stop and listen to yourself, listen to your children. We can make decisions that honor our bodies, mind and spirit. Ghandi said, ‘Be the Change you wish to see in the world’. It begins with me. It begins with you. Begin by being present. You may find yourself in the tram line, impatient, or in line at the post office, in disbelief the person in front you needs to mail 37 letters, all weighed individually—and all you need is one stamp. In those moments, take a deep breath and remember, ‘nothing is next’. Take a look around and realize you are here, nowhere else. How does that feel? Eckhart Tolle said, ‘There was never a time when your life was not now, nor will there ever be.’ Don’t let one moment go un-noticed. When we’re present, we’re at ease, focused, and in alignment with the universe and ourselves. In those moments we radiate, open in heart and mind. Practice being present for one moment a day. It is remarkable, uplifting and will come easier and easier. Jeni West spent most of her life romping around the mountains of Northwestern Montana, and has lived full time in Big Sky since 2006. She is a mother of a beautiful three-year-old boy and is a certified Yoga Instructor under Yogi Amrit Desai. “there was never a time when your life was not now, nor will there ever be.” -eckhart tolle AUTHENTIC THAI & ASIAN CUISINE Try our specials- available nightly 995-2728 Takeout available 5:00 - 9:00 p.m. nightly 3090 Pine Drive #2, Big Sky Please call early to place your takeout order so we may best accomodate Shawna Winter big Sky Weekly www.MTwinter.com Shawna@MTwinter.com Winter & Co.
