They were most likely times when you were fully present as your most essential self. Those were times when you were authentically YOU.<\/p>\n<p>During those moments, you were vulnerable, took risks, and totally immersed yourself in caring for and supporting your students.\u00a0That is your essential self. It\u2019s unburdened by to-do lists, standards, and outside expectations. It\u2019s free from unhelpful stories about what is and isn\u2019t possible. It\u2019s you in your most authentic state: present, loving, and filled with purpose.<\/p>\n<p>You don\u2019t have to try to be anything that you are not. And that includes the positive ways of being that you wish you embodied. You can let go of the striving.<\/p>\n<p>Focus instead on just being your true, whole, healed, essential self &#8230; letting go of any thoughts, beliefs, and actions that don\u2019t serve the highest good.\u00a0At your core, you are loving, patient, kind, and compassionate. You are full of life and energy and purpose.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">All the traits that are counter to that are simply baggage and coping mechanisms you\u2019ve picked up along the way in your journey through life in a very challenging world. They\u2019re reactions you\u2019ve developed as a result of fear, emotional wounds, defensiveness, prejudice, biases, outside expectations, and so on.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ve accumulated triggers \u2014 things that set you off so you don\u2019t respond in the way you wish you could.\u00a0You\u2019ve accumulated habits and patterns that aren\u2019t serving you well.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;re responding from a place of pain or as a result of trauma and suffering.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s part of the journey of being human.<\/p>\n<p>But those things aren\u2019t really you. At your core, you have a beautiful spirit or soul or essential self, however you choose to see it.<\/p>\n<p>So you don\u2019t have to constantly work hard to become a better teacher (or partner, or parent). You\u2019re not becoming anything. You\u2019re simply releasing all the habits and patterns that aren\u2019t really you. Being yourself \u2014 your true essential self \u2014 is always enough. It\u2019s always exactly what\u2019s needed at any given moment.<\/p>\n<p>So instead of getting down on yourself when you don\u2019t make the choices that you wish you had, I want you to think about what you need to release. Think about what is holding you back from doing what you want and need to do.\u00a0For example, when you find yourself yelling at a student, remember that your natural state \u2014 the real you \u2014 is calm, and patient, and loving. What happened to pull you out of that state?<\/p>\n<p>Were you replaying all the times in the past when that student pushed your buttons, or projecting ahead to the future and thinking about how you couldn\u2019t possibly keep dealing with that behavior until June?<\/p>\n<p>Were you maybe caught off guard \u2014 trying to focus on something else in the moment, and unprepared to handle the situation with the full presence and calmness that was needed?<\/p>\n<p>Release yourself from judgment, and simply notice the cause, notice what pulled you out of your natural state and into a reactive behavior or habit or pattern that you don\u2019t like. Awareness is the goal.<\/p>\n<p>Often the reasons why we don\u2019t follow through with what we wish we could do \u2014 be it eating healthy, or exercising, or being patient with others, or getting work done instead of procrastinating \u2014 often it\u2019s because we\u2019re weighed down with a bunch of stuff that we need to let go of.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve accumulated habits in the evenings that waste time and keep us from getting a good night sleep. We\u2019ve fallen into patterns of buying junk food and not nourishing our bodies properly. We\u2019ve defaulted into taking care of everyone else\u2019s needs and never noticing what our bodies, hearts, and minds are crying out for us to do.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re not really keyed into our senses and the things that bring us joy. When you return to those things \u2014 when you take a moment to breathe, or meditate, or stare out the window, or take a hot bath, or light a candle and watch the flame flicker, or savor a meal with someone you care about \u2014 those things allow us to return to our essential selves. These types of things feed our souls, they remind us of who we are, what really matters. They bring us back to the present moment.<\/p>\n<p>What we need is less about doing something or becoming something, and more about loving who we are and accepting ourselves. We can release ourselves from expectations, habits, and patterns that aren&#8217;t serving us.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s simply a moment-by-moment choice. When you feel things spinning out of control, take that moment to recenter yourself. Observe what\u2019s happening, and tune into what you need in that moment: a quick break, a drink of water, to switch to another task, and so on. Pay attention to your own needs instead of just trying to push through.<\/p>\n<p>When you do that, you\u2019re able to return to your essential self more quickly. \u00a0That\u2019s the natural state you want to spend as much time in as possible, where you are able to respond to the world around you from an active rather than reactive space.<\/p>\n<p>The beautiful thing about learning to treat yourself with this much compassion and kindness is that it helps you treat others in that way, too. As you practice releasing yourself from judgment, you can do the same for people around you.<\/p>\n<p>Take your students, for example. At their cores, they have beautiful souls and kind hearts. What is happening to pull them out of that state? How can you meet them with understanding so that they, too, can become more mindful of their habits and triggers and patterns?<\/p>\n<p>Releasing yourself, your students, your colleagues, your family members, your partner \u2014 anyone in your life \u2014 from judgment is a practice but it will change your life. At least, it\u2019s changed mine.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been a small mindset shift that ripples out into every aspect of my life. There is a big difference in the way it feels when you see yourself as inherently flawed and in need of constant fixing and improvement, and instead, choosing to see your essential self \u2014 or the divine part of you inside \u2014 as perfect, as trustworthy, as always knowing exactly how to respond and act.<\/p>\n<p>Growing as a person then becomes an act of returning to yourself and embracing who you really are, instead of trying to constantly change or improve yourself.\u00a0Your very existence, your presence in the classroom, has value. And the more that you show up with an open heart and mind, free from limiting beliefs about yourself, your students, and your school, the more your essential self will shine through.<\/p>\n<p>My hope for you is that this new year would be a time of less effort, less striving, less doing &#8230; and more being. That requires a transition and some new habits and patterns, but each day you bring your awareness to that goal, the more it becomes a reality in your life. It\u2019s not always going to be easy, but it&#8217;s going to be worth it.<\/p>\n<p><b>This episode is sponsored by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brainson.org\">Brains On<\/a>.
