The Interview: Diego Sanmiquel ~ The Miracle in the Words
Episode 176, May 06, 01:54 AM
How many of us listen to what we say to ourselves every single day? The kindness we show ourselves? How harsh we can be to ourselves? I think of me as a young girl and think to myself...I would NEVER say such hurtful things to any other person, or child...YET...I say horrible things to myself on the regular.
And that is at the crux this week-the intersection if you will...of my guest Diego's Miracle Story! He's a Qigong Medicine Practitioner and his story is of a patient of his...and how a simple twist of language, of thought, changed this man's outcome! It goes to show just how a simple use of words, of belief, can alter our perception of the world, and our potential for possibility within it! Diego's amazing website can be found here...so be sure to check him out! He's a teacher, a coach, an entrepreneur and a Daoist Abbot...what does he not do?? Well, he has learned NOT to speak harshly to himself and others understanding that we are building and creating our worlds with our thoughts and words every single day! And I myself would love to live in a world that is shiny and new, beautiful and filled with grace, every single day!
I use two of Maya Angelou's quotations this week, so why not one more? Your bit of beauty is this: "Caged Bird," which is entirely appropriate because I have been going down a bit of a William Blake rabbit hole recently. This exquisite poem is based on Blake's lines, "A Robin Redbreast in a Cage / Puts all Heaven in a Rage." And why shouldn't it? Just as we shouldn't cage gorgeous animals we should not cage ourselves with self-defeating words and beliefs! So with that in mind...have a beautiful and sweet-as-pie week!
