One of the core concepts I use in my approach is the Mirror Concept. This powerful idea suggests that everything in life is a reflection of ourselves.
I often get asked about this because it can be quite confusing at first.
The way I use the Mirror Concept is to understand that if there’s something in your external environment that you do not like, it’s pointing to something deeper within yourself that needs attention. It’s your higher self telling you to check in and see if there’s something you need to release, acknowledge, or become aware of.
To grasp this concept, think of yourself as the detective of your own life. Many people enjoy crime dramas because of the journey of uncovering the truth. In these dramas, the crime scene often doesn’t fully represent the real cause of the crime. Detectives use clues, questions, and intuition to find the truth. This is what the Mirror Concept is about.
Imagine looking in a mirror and seeing yourself wearing a red top. If you don’t like the red top, you wouldn’t blame the mirror. Instead, you would take off the red top yourself. Similarly, the situations and people in our lives reflect back to us aspects of our inner selves. If we want to change what we see, we need to change something within ourselves first.
It’s not as simple as what we see being exactly the same as what we are. It’s about how what we see makes us feel and why we have that situation in our life. We need to go deeper to understand the real cause of our discomfort.
This is a life-changing concept. The person I am today is because I see everyone in my life as my teacher. They’re constantly telling me things about myself, even if they don’t realise it.
So next time you encounter a challenging situation or person, ask yourself: What is this reflecting about me? What can I learn from this? How can I grow from this experience?
Remember, the journey to self-mastery is about embracing these reflections and using them as tools for profound personal transformation.
