1). Lose Your Mind and Come to Your Senses
Back in the 1960’s, a famous psychologist named Fritz Perls used to say, “Lose your mind and come to your senses.” It is only in recent years that I understand the profound wisdom inherent in that message. I now know the most important step we can take in our spiritual evolution is to stop identifying with our minds, so we may align with our Spiritual Essence.
When we “lose our minds” we do, indeed, come to our senses. The present moment of our lives becomes infinitely richer and more satisfying.

Should it be aggressive and fight, run away, or relax and accept the situation? It was intuition, which interpreted events to trigger emotions.
