Inward (The Inward Trilogy)

by Yung Pueblo

the same way we are anchored and grounded by the earth, the earth is healed and nurtured by our unconditional love

a human is as deep as an ocean, yet most of us spend our lives knowing only the surface when we decide to dive deep within ourselves, we set in motion the miracle of personal evolution (deeper healing)

though the pain once felt unbearable and everlasting, the peace i feel today is a testament to the heart’s ability to heal

rebirth: the moment people wake up to their power and start moving toward their freedom

allow yourself to transform as many times as you need to be fully happy and free

the inward movement can be summarized as follows: we observe ourselves, we accept what we find without judgment, we let it go, and the actual release causes our transformation.

every moment we take to know ourselves, we return as someone new.

but when we observe ourselves through proven healing techniques, including different forms of meditation and practices of yoga asanas, among many other things, we accelerate the process of change.

when you want to change yourself, do not change everything at once. pick a few things to focus on first. setting yourself up for success is key.

find the balance between being productive and being patient

we have not learned that the beauty of living comes from the movement of change.

thank you for making me happy thank you for supporting my happiness

i am at my strongest when i am calm

it is the things you say no to that really show your commitment to your growth

we will learn to respond to life as opposed to blindly reacting to it.

looked into her past, she noticed that the road she had traveled was no simple straight line. her journey toward fully loving herself and the world was full of forward and backward movement, twists, turns, detours, and even some pauses. at times, she doubted her progress, her potential, and even her power to change. but today, with the wisdom of experience at hand, she knows she could not have gotten to where she is without every movement she has ever made. (experience) serious transformations begin with two commitments: the courage to try new things and act in new ways the honesty needed to no longer hide from or lie to ourselves

they asked her, “how did you free yourself?” she answered, “by embracing my own power.”

“it means to uncover and release whatever keeps you from true happiness; to love, honor, and accept every single part of you, especially those that are kept in the dark. it means to observe yourself continually with the utmost honesty and without judgment. loving yourself means striving to reach new heights of self-understanding so as to cultivate the wisdom that inner peace requires.”

“why are we here at a time when there is so much misery and despair?” she responded, “because you answered the call. the earth signaled for heroes, and the heavens sent forth the ones who were most ready to grow and unleash their unconditional love. you’re here to shine the light of your own healing, to offer the world the gift of your balance and peace.”

being honest with yourself is an act of self-love

true self-love is accepting yourself for all that you are, especially the darkest parts

the more we love ourselves, the more easily prosperity and miracles can flow into our lives self-love has the power to release all blocks

through self-love we can travel the universe

self-love is doing the work we need to do to be free

self-love is an energy we use for our own personal evolution; it is a meeting and balance of two critically important ideas: loving who we currently are and simultaneously transforming into the ideal version of ourselves.

i cannot make you happy, but i can commit to support you in the creation of your own happiness

to expect another to resolve all of our issues and give us the happiness we desire is to expect to see the sunrise without opening our own eyes.

love is not: i will give this to you if you do this for me love is: i will give this to you so that you may shine

true love does not hurt; attachments do

when the attachments that we create in our minds break, we feel their rupture deeply.

attachments are not a form of true love.

stress and anxiety are the children of attachment; they are both forms of craving that take us away from the present and into areas of imagination that steal away our peace.

peace makes you strong hate reveals your emptiness kindness feeds your happiness anger reveals your fear love makes you free

i am not here to compete i am here to grow and be free

love teaches us that we are here not to compete but to support each other’s growth and happiness.

fear seeks control revenge prolongs pain animosity disrupts peace compassion ignites healing honesty releases burdens happiness is letting go

if we recognize our own imperfections, it helps us have compassion for all people and look upon all as equals.

it is important to remember that we are all imperfect and that we all live through the limited perspective of ego.

striving to learn as much as we can from one another without making harsh and permanent judgments is a sign of wisdom.

the idea that when you let go of what you want, it comes to you

Let go of wanting a relationship... It found its way to me instead

the mind is a garden; what we decide to grow there will determine our prosperity

sometimes we go back and repeat an old mistake just so we can remember why we moved forward

giving yourself the space and time to respond instead of reacting blindly is an important way to reclaim your power

your friends who have the courage to expand their wisdom and self-awareness— they are special; keep them close

peaceful minds have the power to create a peaceful world

pleasure cannot fill the heart hate cannot keep you safe anger cannot set you free only love can fill voids only love can create peace only love can liberate

the dalai lama once stated, “compassion is the radicalism of our time.” this is true. today we rebel by loving more. when we can see and treat each other as family, we will know a global peace.

do not forget to send your love into the earth into the water into the sky

the subconscious and the reactive patterns that have accumulated there over time, though they remain mostly unknown or forgotten, have a strong effect on our daily behavior.

the mind is purified as we release the weight of the past and the yearnings for specific things in the future—especially
