RBC

What does RBC stand for you ask? RIDICULOUS BRAIN CHATTER.....We all have it - We all want to stop it. How? A really good solution to this problem (and it IS a problem) is to be conscious of it at the moment it is happening. Easy to say very hard to do right? Not really if you don't live your life in a coma! It's called being PRESENT and being a witness to your life. Yes...witnessing life as it is happening...being present for it while it's happening. It's easier to be in a coma! Being present and bearing witness to life happening to (as opposed to my life) is something of a foreign concept to most. I know it has been to me as much as I would like to say I am so evolved that I am 100% present all the time...NOT! Lucky if it's 10% and that's a high percentage.
I have the disease of RBC and it interrupts my sleep, my awake, my everything and has for way too long and I would like to eradicate it from my life forever.
I recently watched and incredible lecture on TED.com featuring speaker JILLBOLTE TAYLOR who is a Neuroanatomist her Session: Who are we? This was the most riveting lecture I have ever heard in my life. Talk about someone who was so present as life happened to her.....

Brain researcher Jill Bolte Taylor studied her own stroke as it happened -- and has become a passionate advocate for the brain's resilience.

It was the most amazing insight to how the mind works. Totally fascinating and inspired me to wake up and take in every second of life happening as it is actually happening....become Present and Bear witness to life as life happens. It is amazing, enlightening and different. It is beautiful, it is powerful it creates one to make change.

Now imagine everyone on the planet doing this everyday. Conceptually it is far reaching BUT let the imagination soar for one moment - don't you think the world would be better for it? So how about we just start with one person at a time...I will start right here....

Thanks for being present....Till the next time...L
