The Time Travel Meditation
 
I did this exercise yesterday, wow what a powerful meditation, certainly in terms of clarifying things. I cant say I enjoyed it Steve, but it was a pretty healthy eye-opener. I was pretty shocked with what I found but I knew what I saw and felt was accurate.The information I received or rather felt definitely give me a kick up the backside. Ill certainly be using it more often and I'm pretty confident that the more I grow and put positive decisions into actions, I'll look forward to meeting my future self.

The future self I met yesterday is a complete cow, I don't know how but she was completely different to how I am now in every way, she was almost what I feared becoming and more. I was like, look future self having a really hard time, any chance of a heads up? And she was just looking at me distastefully and being all like ' I have to go to the gym in an hour, I don't really have time for this'. She seemed really hard nosed and accepting of her crushed spirit an aggressive soulless type almost , like someone who could have been gentle and wholesome consumed with hate.

anyway- very interesting

I'd love to hear from you guys and your experiences if you've tried this mediation

If you haven't,do! It makes you realise how precise time is and its certainly good clarity in a time of total confusion.

Did you meet your past self doing the meditation ?

The future me i met was much darker and fearless, 3 yrs on from doing that meditation I can say the me i see in the mirror is the guy i saw in my meditation.

I did meet my past self, It was an interesting reminder.

and when you met your future self three years ago, did you think , yeah Ill stick with this? Is it darker is a wiser way?

I'm not sticking with this one, she was certainly darker( in a crap way) and yes in some ways fearless but she learnt nothing from any hardships , she almost went backwards rather than forwards

I assumed you didn't really meet your past self or give her enough attention, respect or love and so by extension your future isn't giving you that, but it seems i was off the mark :D Your future self is yours to create.

I was surprised by my future self, he smirked at me i found him to be arrogant but i did find him much stronger and courageous so I rolled with it. The truth was i was a self-hating person back than and i found people who liked themselves a to be arrogant my future self wasn't arrogant he was just comfortable with himself.



Have you seen this post by steve pavlina, he has a alternative to that meditation that you might like more it starts at the "Is This Really Who I Am?" bit.
