Flying home

Polarity Therapy is about utilizing the five elements to understand our reality and to bring more balance and harmony to it. Coming back from Daytona to Cleveland, at 40,000 feet, I thought about the air element and how it might affect our consciousness. The "mountain top" experience has been an ideal and a cliche for centuries in the mystical and spiritual world. Now we can have the perspective that altitude brings with little effort. How is our consciousness different at 40,000 feet? What is available and accessible to us? What insights and solutions might we find? Probably not many if we spend the time watching an in-flight movie. What if we honored that opportunity and used it for meditation, planning, finding a solution for some current problem or affirmations to reprogram our nervous system? What if we took time to notice the subtle changes in our minds, bodies and spirits while we are flying? If we can afford a plane ticket, we can afford to pay attention. This is an example of a resource that we often ignore. Explore the air element next time you fly. Open to its secrets and its lessons. Ask for its help. Breathe.
Have a great flight!
