The *Excuse Clause

On one hand, we believe that we can create the life that we want. On the other hand, we complain when things are not going our way. We take credit for success but blame failure.

For example, we acknowledge that our success comes from our hard work, being smart, or luck. But we think that our failure would not have happened if the external circumstances would have been different.

When the evidence is too clear, that we have made a mistake or are learning something new, and we refuse to Own Our Power and incredible Life-journey, we blow a smokescreen and confuse any fact that we have a personal responsibility.

The *Excuse Clause is a fabricated hoax we use when we want to be right. It is the thought and reason we hold on to, that stops us from letting go and look for empowering solutions.

You probably believe and agree that your thinking and beliefs define what you experience and that you have the power to create the life that you want.

You know this by such topics as “the placebo effect” and that “people encountering similar situations report different results”, meaning that each person creates their results in accordance with what they believe is true.

Most likely, you get that thinking and doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result, is a sign of insanity, when it is about others and non-essential personal topics.

But, when it comes to personal responsibility, it is common to be hiding behind the *Excuse Clause.

This is where we argue that there is nothing we can do and we have no power over the situation, because our misery is caused by external forces.

If you can become aware when you give away your power and look for someone or something else to solve your issue, and instead explore what mis-thinking you have, then you can permanently turn your issue into a success.

Breathing Cycle

A BREATHING CYCLE is the time it takes for you, through Natural Breathing, to increase your Life-force, let it saturate you, and finally integrate into to become your new you.

The Breathing Cycle is a natural and internal experience.

You engage in a Breathing Cycle in the same way as you engage in eating a meal. When you are hungry, you start off eating a lot. Once your initial hunger is stilled you might continue nibbling because it tastes so good, but not as fast. Eventually you can’t eat anymore even if it is delicious.

THE 3 PHASES OF THE BREATHING CYCLE: 
A Breathing Cycle includes the same phases as flying an airplane. First, you need to rev your engines to take off. Once you have reached your cruising altitude you back off a little on the throttle, even though you must keep your engines running. Eventually you will land and turn off the engine.

BUILDING Life-force
The 1st Phase of the Breathing Cycle is when you build up retained Life-force in your body. Here you focus on all the 5 BREATHING BASICS. You know when you are in the Building Phase because you are increasing your tingling sensation.

MAINTAINING Life-force
The 2nd Phase of the Breathing Cycle is where you maintain your increased retained level of Life-force. Here you fluctuate between continuing the 5 Breathing Basics and surrendering to the newly increased retained Life-force.

INTEGRATING the increased Life-force
The 3rd Phase of the Breathing Cycle is to integrate your new Life-force. This phase starts when you feel saturated and feel like completing your Breathing Cycle. In this phase, you need to get out of the way, loose control and let your body’s breathing take over and do whatever it wants, while staying relaxed.

The “Building” phase of the Breathing Cycle takes between 5-25 minutes. The “Maintaining” phase takes between 30-45 minutes. And the “Integration” phase takes between 10-30 minutes.

How High Do You Want To Go?
If you start your Breathing Cycle with a shallow slow breathing your take off won’t get you very high – similar to how a propeller plane taking off at a low speed can only take you to about 5000 feet altitude. At this level you get a glimpse of your potential consciousness just like the view from 5000 feet brings you a new perspective of your world.

If you start your Breathing Cycle with deep strong breathing, you take off to full body tingling like a jet plane that quickly launches you to 37,000 feet altitude. At this energy level you get the full experience of your awakening consciousness, like the panorama from 37,000 feet shows you the whole world.

The Habit of Rationalizing and Justifying

RATIONALIZING and JUSTIFICATION is the JOKER that the Ego has up it sleeves, to keep you trapped in trying to convince others that you are right.

When something evidently is not working, rationalization comes in handy, pointing out that there are flaws to the evaluating system.

It says: “If there would have been different circumstances, the evading rationalizing would have proof of its point of view.”

Rationalization is only necessary after the proposed fact is evidently wrong, and you won’t accept that.

Rationalization seems so convincing, that it will even make you ignore facts.

For example: “I had a car accident, but it wouldn’t have happened if…”
“I had a fight with my partner, but it only happened because s/he doesn’t understand…”
“I don’t have enough time, so I can’t do that…” (Then I have an emergency and suddenly I have time to take care of it.)
“I don’t have enough money, so I can’t do that…” (Then my TV breaks or muffler falls off and suddenly I do have the money to pay for it.)

When you catch yourself rationalizing, stop and realize that you are making yourself apparently powerless and need to reevaluate your excuse deflection, if you want your life to be the way you want it to be.

Now, prove this to be wrong… Ha Ha Ha…

The Premise

Defining YOUR PREMISE is important, because it WILL DEFINE YOUR STRATEGY to how you will access your well-being and reach your goals.

Do you believe in the premise that you are naturally nurtured and provided for, so you can relax into well-being and an easy abundant life.

Or do you believe in the premise that you are delivered into a faulty body and a life of struggle for survival. This premise leaves you struggling with limitations and mentally fabricated stress.

When you Surrender to Well-being, you assume the premise that you are already created perfect, and are supposed to live a life of peace, thriving, and enjoying your creativity.

When you try to Produce Well-being, you assume the premise that there is something wrong with you, your life, the world, and existence that must be corrected, leaving you feeling faulty and busy struggling with a declining body and limited resources.

To switch from a mis-thinking destructive premise to a wise constructive premise you have to gain correct understanding and complete any Incomplete Experiences, so you can live fresh, in present time and access your innate Life-force and wisdom and thus connect with your naturally peaceful, joyful, abundant well-being.

The Breathing Control System

In your life you have most likely had some unwanted experiences, which you then resist repeating by inhibiting your breathing and being less alive. This sub-ventilating is intended as a protection.

This sub-ventilating is your automatic controlled attempt to homeostasis – it is the way to make sure you don’t touch those memories and remain unchanged. This is the BREATHING CONTROL SYSTEM, and it reasons that staying in status quo is keeping you alive, and any change “could” be dangerous.

But, in fact, this Breathing Control System is slowly killing you, because it leaves you with a less than optimum amount of Life-force and oxygen, which is a growing ground for many dis-eases and it also leaves you tired, lazy and a lack of passion.

The way the Breathing Control System works is to make sure that the amount of Source Energy – Life-force you add through inhaling and awareness will never exceed the amount of energy you use up, through physical and mental tension.

The Breathing Control System monitors:

  • How much energy you “take in” (through breathing and awareness) and then ‘FORCES’ you to “use up” an equal amount.
  • How much energy you “use up” (through moving, tensing and thinking) and then “MAKES” you take in an equal amount of energy.

When you increase your energy by Breathing more and being more Aware, the Breathing Control System makes you get rid of this energy by making you tense up or get mentally active and unaware. Like, when you feel more, you nervously move, including deflating self-talk and zooning out.

When you decrease your energy, by Tensing, Moving, Thinking and Zooning out, the Breathing Control System makes you fill up on energy by making you Breath more or Think less. Like, when you run and have to take a breather, you focus and breathe deeply, void of thinking.

Sometimes the Breathing Control System gets OFF GUARD. Then, Natural Breathing kicks in and you sigh, yawn, laugh, be emotional, exert yourself and sleep.

Once you realize the benefits of breaking the Breathing Control System, you will intend to RETAIN more energy than you use up. That is what happens when you do Natural Breathing.

If you break the Breathing Control System, you will retain more energy than you use up, and end up with an EXCESS of energy and that energy must go somewhere.

This retained excess energy will go to blocked places in your body and your mind and recover the aliveness of those areas. It will go to and remove blocks in your “energy body” and uproot any sub-conscious blocks – leaving you healthier and more alive.

If you intend to use “Breathwork” to permanently heal an issue, improve your Well-being and for Self-discovery, you will need to Build Up and RETAIN more energy than you usually keep. This means you have to interrupt your Breathing Control System, by CHOOSING to build up energy, through breathing and awareness, and REFRAINING from using up the increased energy, which you do by keeping your body and mind – Conscious, Still and Relaxed.

Breaking the Breathing Control System will complete incomplete traumatic energy blockages and open up space for your Life-force to enliven your Well-being and conscious success and happiness.
