The Only Problem Is Your Resistance

This is day 5 of the 7 Day Allowing Challenge.

Problems can seem so real to us. I know that I’ve certainly gotten myself into some apparent problems that I didn’t see a way out of.

Yet I have found this very basic yet essential truth to be invaluable along my journey: there is always a way out. There is always a way to freedom. And, as such, there is always a way to get what you want.

No problem can be so real, so impossible, that there is absolutely no way out. That simply can’t happen, for one very important reason:

Problems are of the mind. There is no reality to them whatsoever.

There’s a certain teacher that says, “You think you have a reality problem, but in reality you have a thinking problem.”

I think this outlines perfectly what I’m saying above. There are no such things as problems, because all problems are of the mind.

More accurately, all problems are just you resisting some part of life—some part of your experience that you are trying to control.

When you encounter a problem, your first instinct is to clamp down on it and to resist it. Of course, this only makes the apparent problem bigger.

If instead you were to allow the “problem”, just as you allow every other part of life, then it would simply dissolve, having nothing to keep its cohesion.

As always, to allow it all is to allow life to return to perfection and freedom. If you resist one part of that stream of energy, then you are creating a problem that will be reflected on the outside. Stop resisting it, and the manifested “problem” will dissolve.

As you are going through this week of allowing, your allowing should be getting deeper and deeper. You will realize things that you once thought you were allowing, you are in actuality resisting on a very subtle level. Allow it all, no matter how serious it seems: it’s all just thoughts. There is nothing truly serious in this world.

As always, I’d love to hear how the challenge is going, so do feel free to comment!
