Two Sources of Energy
There are two sources of energy that we have access to as human beings.
The first one is our physical energy or body energy. This is a limited and yet also renewable resource. It's limited by how much we eat and how well we sleep. If we exercise, we have more. If we exercise too much, we have less. It's renewable because our bodies are designed to renew and heal. Every morning when we wake up, we have a new allotment of energy. During the day when we eat food that fuels our body and when we allow our body to rest, we gain energy. It's a bit like a video game where you navigate around getting treasures and energy. Or running around and expending your collected energy having adventures.
The other source of energy available to us as human beings is the unlimited energy of the Universe. We are surrounded and swimming in the energy of life at all times. It's what our body is made of. It's what fuels inspiration, creativity, joy, love, and those ideas that come to you out of the blue. Our natural state is being connected to the energy at the heart of life. It fuels the feeling of aliveness.
You may have experienced a time when you were tired from the day and then as you quieted down for the night inspiration struck! All of a sudden, energy flows through your whole body and you are compelled up and into action. You create without a sense of time until it's done with you. Then you rest.
You may have experienced not having a whole lot on your mind and just feeling happy for no reason. There is a quiet energy in this. My daughter told me this morning "Mummy, I felt so happy at school yesterday for NO REASON!" lol. Yes.
These are a couple of examples of when we don't have a lot on our minds, we naturally start using a different source of energy. We feel naturally relaxed and energized. Our bodies switch from running on battery to running on being plugged into the mains. We are in natural flow.
Another analogy is that it's like being online versus offline. When we are offline, we have access to what is loaded on our computer system versus access to all the content and experiences on the internet.
Our system is designed to run on the internet of the Universal Intelligence. We can run for a while on our renewable body energy only.
Given the choice, I'll take the effortlessness of the energy of the Universe.
