Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.

What if contemplation, aka thinking, sitting, being still, what if that is the highest form of activity? Think about it. When's your best ideas come to you?

Or when do solutions to problems come to you? Is it when you're in an anxious state? Is it when you're

talking about your problems on the group chat? Oh my gosh, all the drama that comes

with how you're feeling and how you're expressing it and the back and forth. Is it when you are

frantically trying to come up with an answer? Or is it simply when you are still, when you can

even empty your mind of so much of its unnecessary,

unhelpful thoughts? The way that I think about it is this. When I'm still, when I'm not buying

into the drama of what's happening around me, I expose fake emergencies. How many times have you got on a text or an email or a phone call or someone said something or

you've seen something and your body panics?

It thinks it has to do something now.

It thinks it has to fix something.

It thinks that you are in imminent danger.

When you pause, when you breathe, when you often do nothing, things get resolved.

Answers arise. Someone else takes care of it. Affairs get settled. Truly, I wonder how much in life

that appears as an emergency really is. Unless it's physical, unless there

really is some type of imminent threat or danger, we need to really slow down and contemplate

what the heck is going on. Otherwise, we just live our lives on the stress bus. We make poor

decisions. We're in constant action wearing ourselves out because we're

not actually engaging the most important wise part of us. Our intuition. When you are in touch with

yourself, the real you, the wise you, Answers arise.

This doesn't happen when we're frantic.
