Awareness and Mirroring - Intuitive Mirroring



This post is in response to Bill Fanning's post on Awareness on his Body of Balance blog here -> Body Of Balance - Awareness

Quote: But we have alternatives if we realize that we need to look for them.

And there's the rub! How do we know to look for them if we can't see the problem to start with?


This is where mirroring comes in. Mirroring is reflecting back what is present in a moment without the original perceived biases and prejudices. In mirroring, step 1 is 1+1 =2, Step 2 is  2-1 = 1.

So we start out with 1 - the viewpoint of the person and 1 - the mirrored perception by the "mirror-er", the 2 separate points of view. As the 2 are brought together, the mirrored perception resonates with the unbiased, latent perception, of the person, previously hidden by prejudices, and the biases and prejudices are removed by the person, so that what is left is a holistic awareness of the event, which provides the awareness to solve the problem.

This is what I call Intuitive Mirroring, which is mirroring using intuitive source for perspective, so that the perspective is not polluted by biases and prejudices as most perspectives are. In order to do this, personal distortions have to be put aside, not only at the moment of the mirroring, but constantly, as a natural part of one's life, so that the mirroring is clearly reflected in the moment. Then the skill of Intuitive Communication is required to be able to intuit what relevant life experience will bring together or bridge the 2 separate perspectives into one.

Ironically, the specific problem isn't clear quite often when a client first comes to me. They sense something is not right, but have an approximate idea as to the cause. Naturally, if they knew the precise problem, they would be well on the way to solving it. But their own beliefs and conditioning won't allow them to see the whole picture - only a distorted one that doesn't assist in the solution. So I usually spend the first part of a session with a client examining what they are really there for, which often turns out to be something different then they thought.

As Bill mentioned in his blog from the movie What the Bleep!?, the story in which the Indians were not able to “see” the ships of Christopher Columbus when he first arrived in the New World, this is a clear example of how awareness can effect our perception of the word. In the story it took a shaman or wise man of the tribe to see the ships first and then to communicate to the rest of the tribe of their existence. This, to me, is the function of Intuitive Mirroring and then Intuitive Communication.
