Daily Insight: Where's My Silly?

Have you ever had the inkling to do something preposterous? Something out of the ordinary, that you know.. people would wonder where you escaped from? Maybe when they know the truth it will be that you escaped the programming of having to be "serious"! Most of us are so programmed to be serious adults that we have forgotten that we too are allowed to be silly, and that feeling.... of being silly is so, free'ing!

Just the thought of giving yourself permission to do something silly could be enough to allow your "serious" character take a break - allowing yourself to be silly once in a while is almost a necessity to reset ourselves and allow a new shift to take place.


For a moment - just invite your mind to think of doing something silly. How does your body react.. I feel a tingling sensation of butterflies in my tum! What do you feel?


Allow the magic of your imagination to be free'ed - choose one thing for today and let the silliness of your inner child reign free - maybe for a few moments, an hour or the whole day BUT, remember to enjoy and soak up the feeling. And, if someone notices you being silly - give them a friendly smile - that may invite them to discover their own silliness.


Give yourself the freedom to just enjoy! A silly little exercise just to relax your mind and the body will follow. :)


“We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.” ~ Buddha
