self enlightenment exercise no.27
The meaning of the sentences that you read in this exercise, really do not matter.
All that’s important is that you focus on the color in the actual letters in the text.
And as you focus on the color in these words, you sense a subtle change of feeling.
Like the change of feeling that occurs when you look at the color in these letters that I have typed.
Each color has a subtle meaning for you, maybe an association with memories
Or something much deeper, nobody really knows what the perception of color is.
But the feelings you have as you absorb each color, are real and uniquely personal to you.
Now look at the world around you and take notice of the wider range of colors that are there for you to enjoy.
NOTES
The perception of color is a most wonderful aspect of our lives So I hope that this exercise makes all the colors you see today, a little brighter.
I love to read. So when I first did this exercise, I couldn't get past reading the words. After a few tries, I decided to just look at the colors and had to force myself not to read the words. I felt an immediate shift in both my mental and physical attitude. I went from feeling stressed and harried to calmer and more peaceful. It is amazing how much more vibrant the world becomes when you take the time to actually notice the various colors, shapes, and textures that surround you. These aspects of everyday life seem so subdued when when you are rushed, stressed, and overwhelmed. This experience has taught me to slow down and take in what is around me. Thanks for the reminder to "stop and smell the roses"!
