 We now know how powerful our imagination is. We can use it to envision a better outcome. It is easy to use our imagination to  envision a disastrous outcome. We do it all the time. So if we know imagination is a powerful tool then I am proposing here that we use it wisely.  Most of this world is suffering in one way or another. The recent illnesses and restrictions, and changes around us has left many of us feeling powerless. Our heads are hung low and we comply to outrageous restrictions and our mouths are speaking against these things we do not like repeatedly. These attitudes can bolster and feed injustice like a wild fire.  I am suggesting we turn that around to imagine what we would prefer to happen. What would that look like to you ? Do you dare think it and enjoy that thought ? 

Here is an example of how imagination can be used in any situation you prefer or feel the need to change. .

YOUR IMAGINATION CAN WORK WONDERS

I read a true account of a woman who was driving in West Los Angeles. At a stop light, a bus is at her right and an elderly gray-haired lady is hurrying diagonally across the intersection trying to catch the bus. When the light changed the bus drove on leaving the lady behind in the street. The woman watching this from car, could not actually help the elderly gray-haired lady she had to keep going with the traffic. The woman felt compassion and decided to give the woman a lift with her imagination. So in Imagination she opens the door and gives the lady a lift. Then still in her imagination she hears the lady tell her she is meeting a few friends and if she had to wait for another bus she was afraid her friends would leave without her.

Within  a half a minute the woman felt satisfied about the situation with the elderly gray-haired lady, which she had created with her Imagination story.

Four blocks ahead, that woman stopped at a light, where someone tapped on the window, it was the gray-haired lady standing outside her car out of breath. The woman lowered her window and the lady said," I have missed my bus could you give me a ride? Friends are waiting for me and I do not want to be left behind." The woman opens her door to let the lady in. Six blocks further down the road the lady says, "Oh there are my friends !" The lady thanks the driver and gets out.

 So what will you do next time you feel powerless over a situation ?

Try something new. Evolve the tendency to imagine the worst. 

Use your imagination. Imagine a good outcome. Exercise your imagination muscles. Do this daily.

Think of the possibilities.

It is not hard to feel the effects of what is going on in the world. You can use your imagination to envision a better world. Take a moment and envision a world of peace, good health, and kindness. What would that look like to you? You can be a part of creating a better world for humanity.  

I think of global well-being when I see this. I got it at a swap meet
in California. 

Praying for Rain Technique

Praying For Rain Technique

Imagine your prayer or desire happening in the present moment in living color. This is a powerful practice. I am making myself a special journal to record my prayers and desires as if they have already been answered.

For example,  I heard a beautiful story told by Gregg Braden. He received a call from his Native American friend. His friend asked him if he would like to go out into the desert to visit a place his ancestors had built. He was going there to pray for rain. This was during one of the longest droughts recorded in the Southwest. They traveled out into the desert until his friend found the site. Instead of praying for rain his friend imagined the rain, he smelled the rain, he felt his naked feet in the mud and saw the rain running down the roofs of his pueblo. Here is the video and the written story below.

This is a powerful practice of being in the change you want by using all your senses and emotions to bring it to full dramatic life within you. Imagination is magnetic.

TRY THIS EXPERIMENT

The world is really what you think it is. Try this experiment. It shows us how imagination can change things

1. Take a deep breath and relax where you are.

2. Keeping your body straight, now turn your head to the right as far as you can and note what you can see at the end of the turn.

3. Bring your head back to the front.

4. Now close your eyes and imagine that you are an owl and that makes it easy to move your head all the way around to face backwards if you want to. Keep facing forward and just imagine your head turning around like that.

5. Open your eyes and gently and carefully turn your head to the right as far as you can.
