The power of awareness first lesson
Most people think awareness is something you do.
They think:
- “I need to be more aware”
- “I lost awareness”
- “I need to focus better”
But awareness is not an action.It’s a position.
You are always positioned somewhere internally.
Right now, pause for a moment.
Before any thought appears…before any emotion…before any intention…
There is a quiet sense of:
“I am here.”
That is awareness.
Not dramatic.Not spiritual.Not emotional.
Just present being.
Now here’s the part most people miss:
Awareness is not neutral because it doesn’t careAwareness is neutral because it assumes.
What you are aware of feels:
- obvious
- unquestioned
- settled
- “just how things are”
You don’t argue with it.You don’t affirm it.You don’t defend it.
You live from it.
That’s why awareness is so powerful — and so invisible.
Why Awareness Is Hard to See
You cannot see awareness the way you see thoughts.
Thoughts move.Emotions fluctuate.Circumstances change.
Awareness stays constant.
It’s the background context in which all experience happens.
Like water to a fish.
Most people don’t suffer because of bad thoughts.They suffer because of the position they’re unconsciously living from.
For example:
- “I’m the one who has to try”
- “I’m the one who fixes”
- “I’m the one who waits”
- “I’m the one who hopes”
These are not thoughts.These are identities.
And identities live at the level of awareness.
The Difference Between Thinking and Being
You can think:
“Things will work out”
But if your awareness is:
“I’m usually disappointed”
Life follows the awareness — not the thought.
You can affirm:
“I am abundant”
But if your awareness is:
“Money feels unsafe”
Your nervous system will always choose the familiar awareness.
This is why effort fails.This is why motivation fades.This is why people feel like something is “blocking” them.
Nothing is blocking you.You are simply living from an unseen position.
Awareness Is What Your Nervous System Knows
This is important.
Awareness is not intellectual.It is somatic.
Your body already knows what feels safe, familiar, and expected.
That’s awareness.
If your body:
- tightens when you think of success
- braces when things go well
- relaxes in struggle
- feels “at home” in chaos
That’s awareness expressing itself.
Not trauma.Not punishment.Not self-sabotage.
Just familiarity.
Integration Pause (Very Important)
Do not rush past this.
Ask yourself slowly:
- What does my life expect?
- What does my body prepare for?
- What feels “normal”, even if I don’t like it?
Don’t answer with thoughts.Let the answer surface.
That is your current awareness.
And seeing it — without judgment — is already a shift.
