Heroes Not Zombies

Yesterday I wrote about resonances – the symmetries, echoes and synchronicities which enrich our lives. So, here’s my suggestion for you today.

Look for, and savour, some resonances.

We spend too much of our lives on autopilot (zombies, not heroes!) and the way to counter that is to become more aware of the present. When we are more aware, we can become more engaged, and can, more consciously, relish and savour the everyday wonders which enrich life.

When we resonate we build and/or experience connection. We connect to what is greater than ourselves. We connect to the rest of planet, we create opportunities to empathise and sympathise with others. We build up our capacity to care and to love.

I think we can find resonances in a multitude of ways – reflections, similarities, echoes, synchronicities, getting « in tune with » and « harmonising with » others.

Try it for yourself today. See what resonances you notice. Be on the lookout for them. Then allow yourself a few moments to savour them. At the end of the day do your own reflection, as you think back over the day and relive any of the resonances you encountered.

What’s your experience? Is your day enriched by resonances?
