There is a source of a deep and profound sense of wellbeing, and even inner wealth inside you. If you don't know how to connect with your inner source, and access your inner resources, you may find yourself in a constant search for something outside you. You will become too concerned about approval from others and your life will become too much about outward success, and even an attempt to become enlightened can become about chasing something outside you (a better mediation technique, a more advanced type of yoga).  Even if you obtain those outer things something will be lacking. You will not be properly aligned to your own inner self and you will feel that something is missing until you do look inside yourself.

The idea of looking inside yourself may make you worried or even afraid, You may fear that you will discover some horrible monster lurking there. That is only because you don't really know yourself. Even if you have looked within it was probably only to look at your own "problems" and "issues"; not to look at your own goodness, wisdom and inner light. Until you do this, you may well feel stuck in all the usual side-effects caused by someone not living from their inner self; such as neediness, grasping, loneliness, anxiety and depression.

In this episode of Transform Your Life, I will share with you a very simple exercise which can really help you discover this inner goodness, this inner light inside you. Some refer to what they discover as their "inner self", "higher self", or "inner wisdom". Some even refer to it as their "inner divinity" or "God within", but that is a scary notion to some, so just call it what seems comfortable to you.  

The sages through the ages, those wise being who have guided the human race for thousands of years, have mostly told us to "look within" and have told us that the answers we are looking for are inside us. Yet, each person needs to discover the reality of this for themselves; not just as a philosophical idea, but as a literal and visceral experience. My hope is that this episode will help you discover the deeper, wiser part of you and that you can begin to feel "loved up" from inside yourself. I hope will find that the Pleasantness Practice that I share with you in this episode, leads you to know yourself more fully and
