🔵 HAYBS | Pattern Series, 5

In the previous email, we learned that journaling is a highly effective method for tracking and identifying patterns in your personal life. If you completed your next step, you have some reflections about the events of the past few days written in your journal—and you have committed to keeping up this practice for 28 days.

If you sincerely desire to make positive changes in your life, then this journaling practice is well worth the effort.

In this email, we go a little deeper into the nature of patterns and how they express through you.

You Are a Pattern

Everything is patterns. Including you! Patterns in the DNA inherited from the sperm and egg of your parents guide the generation of every new cell in your body. There are many different organs and tissues in the body, and many different roles to play. How do these cells know what to become and where to live?

The answer is: patterns.

Trillions of connections between neurons in the brain give rise to a complex electro-chemical system, which you experience as thoughts. This too is an expression of patterns. I am sure you have noticed that some thoughts tend to come back again and again.

Embracing Pattern

There is no way to change the nature of Existence nor the Law of the Cosmos. Pattern is what is. You and your entire world are composed of matter expressing as patterns.

So, as you continue your journaling practice and become more and more familiar with the patterns present in your own life...

... the patterns which are most challenging may become more and more apparent. You may already know of a pattern you want to change, maybe not. Either way, your attention to these patterns may intensify your experience of them.

This is good.

When you become very aware of a pattern in your life, you become very able to change it. Rather than fighting the nature of Existence, you can embrace it. You can learn how to guide the expression of patterns in yourself and your life.

Your Next Step

1. Continue your daily end-of-day journal practice.

2. Visit a tree outside:

   • Notice the structure of its branches.

   • Notice the similarities in the structure of the blood vessels in the body.

   • Contemplate how this pattern forms a connection between you and the tree.

3. Write about this experience in your journal.
