Attachments

What are you most attached to? What do you feel the most connection to? What do you need day after day or do you feel most passionate about in your life? Is it your home, your family, your car, any material possessions or is it some sort of routine that helps keep life in balance and in check for you, is it medication or supliment, a food or a bad habit?

Having an attachment to things can be both good and bad. If we are so attached to something that we react in a negative way when outside circumstances alter that attachment, then it is time to build some healthy distance between. If you are attached to something that keeps you motivated and strong, or has a powerful meaning and keeps you centered, then this could be a healthy attachment for you. Having a healthy attachment to a loved one or material object is keeping you close enough to it that you take care of it and feel joy, any feelings of jealousy, anxiety, fear or anger could lead to an unhealthy connection to that same thing. The bottom line is that we want to look at the things we feel attached to in our life and then evaluate whether it is a healthy attachment or an obstacle to furthering our daily growth.

Take a look at the things in your life that you're currently attached to and evaluate the the level to which you are connected. Take steps to build distance between yourself and unhealthy attachments, and cherish those that keep you healthy and centered.
