◽Tips for having a good reflection:
1 - BOOK A TIME FOR YOURSELF
Reflection time should be a moment of your own, where you can connect with your thoughts without being interrupted. You can associate it with a prayer, a ritual, having a relaxing tea, lighting an incense, getting ready to sleep, whatever you prefer, the important thing is that it is your moment, in which you can concentrate on yourself with peace of mind.
2 - QUESTION YOURSELF AND SEEK ANSWERS WITHIN YOURSELF
Have you ever stopped to question yourself because of the choices you make? Know that doing this exercise can be very positive and help you make sure what you really want for your life. Taking advantage of this moment of reflection for this will allow you to separate your true desires from the impositions of third parties and the desire to please and be accepted. Remembering that this should always be done naturally, without putting yourself as inferior or incapable of making decisions.
3 - REMEMBER THE THINGS YOU FELT GRATEFUL FOR
An essential part of daily reflection involves thanking God, the universe, or whatever makes sense to you so that you recognize how many good things happened in your day and appreciate them. This is important because the human brain has a natural tendency to place greater emphasis on problems, so if nothing is done, it will end up overlooking all the good things that happened to it. Giving thanks is fantastic, because it broadens your perception of all that is good.
4 - LEAVE GUILT AND JUDGMENTS AWAY
Blaming yourself or judging yourself when reflecting on the experiences you've lived won't help you grow, on the contrary, it will create limiting ideas that could compromise your development. In that sense, always keep in mind that you are a human being, that making mistakes is part of the evolution process, and that is not an excuse for you not to do your best, but a statement of reality.
5 - MAKE POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS
A detail to be considered in your reflections is the way in which you will expose these ideas to yourself, as it is essential that you adopt a positive attitude, which encourages you to value the good side of things. That way, instead of moaning about a problem, tell yourself that no matter how challenging it seems, you know you have what it takes to solve it. Remember that it's not what goes into your mouth that defiles you, it's the words that come out of it.
6 - IDENTIFY YOUR LIMITING BELIEFS
Whenever a negative thought invades your mind, during reflection or at any other time, stop and ask yourself the origin of it, as there are great chances that it is a limiting belief. Doing this is necessary because, many times, we just repeat things we hear without stopping to identify the true reason for it, allowing these ideas to compromise our development.
7 - REMEMBER YOUR TRUE NATURE
Lastly, it is very important that you always remember your true nature, what is within you. Leaving aside titles and possessions, to focus on who you are at your core. Thus, when you identify your true self, in a pure way, you will know that you are free of limitations, that you can build the reality you want, always being faithful to your principles and values.
Adopting the habit of reflecting and maintaining an internal dialogue will allow you to live more consciously, opening doors for you to create the reality in which you want to live.
