Changing...Instantly: It's A Lot Easier Than You Think

Changing...Instantly: It's A Lot Easier Than You Think

By Ariel and Shya Kane

Transformation is not about fixing yourself to be a better you. It is about being the way you are.

— Ariel and Shya Kane

Mechanical behaviors are old ways of doing things that once worked, or appeared to have worked.

How does noticing mechanical behaviors dissolve them? Anything that you allow to be exactly the way it is or that you observe, nonjudgmentally, will complete itself in that moment and disappear. In other words, the nonjudgmental observation of any behavior will allow that behavior to disappear and you no longer have to mechanically, habitually be run by the childish version of you.

To dissolve unwanted behaviors, you need to interact with your own life as though you are an anthropologist studying a tribe or culture. What an anthropologist does is to suspend judgment, to look at the culture as not right or wrong or good or bad, but simply observe how they operate and function. If you simply see how you are without judging, manipulating or trying to fix what is seen, this will facilitate the completion of these unwanted behaviors.
