We as humans are mesmerized by space and by the depth of the oceans.
Astronauts and aquanauts are constantly trying to push the boundaries to explore further and deeper than anyone else has done before them. To find what’s really out there that we have not explored yet.
What many of us lack is the motivation to explore our own inner self. And those that are motivated don’t know where to start since there is no spaceship or a submersible that you can take to dive inside yourself.
This is where self exploration and the concept of introspection comes in.
Understanding yourself by diving inwards.
You can refer to this as meditation, mindfulness, being in the moment, self-realization or any other word that sounds good to you.
At the end, it’s all the same thing. Exploring the inner self way beyond the body and the mind.
Going deep to the place where the energy center resides.
The cost for this introspection: our time and the willingness to give up control.
Both things that many of us have a hard time giving up for something that none of our senses can perceive.
But if we do, the reward is truly priceless.
