Path to Wholeness
This week, I found myself questioning what “wholeness” means to me in the context of my path to wholeness. The first thing that came to mind was whole-brain living, inspired by the book Whole Brain Living by Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor.
Dr. Taylor, a Harvard-trained neuroanatomist and stroke survivor, uses four different “characters” within our brain to describe the characteristic functions of each quadrant. For simplicity, I’ll casually call the two on the left side “Task Master” and “Worrier,” and the two on the right “Adventurer” and “Connected One.”
The more time I can spend feeling connected to everything in the universe, including Source, the more whole I feel, so this makes sense.
But how to get there with the loud messages coming from my Task Master and Worrier, along with a few challenges from my Adventurer. It can be hard to hear my Connected One over the din.
For me, nature is the best way to quiet the noise.
It can be so spectacular that I’m simply filled with awe. And in those moments, there isn’t a voice—just a feeling.
Love.
And for that moment, just being is enough.
