Do you have difficulty letting go of your past? Do you let idiots slow you down? Would you like to get free? Hop on the Motorcycle Within and ride into the life of your dreams!
Which issue brings up the strongest feelings for you?
low energy, whizzing thoughts
If those feelings had a color (or colors), what would it be?
neon red
Imagine that color filling the space in front of you so that it has depth, height, width, and aliveness.
Now watch that color swirl, congeal, and condense into a shape. Don’t make it take a shape, just watch it and say the first thing that you see or that comes to your mind: An animal? Object? Plant? What?
A scooter
Now remember how as a child you liked to pretend you were a teacher or a doctor? It’s easy and fun for you to imagine that you are the shape that took form from your color and answer some questions I ask, saying the first thing that comes to your mind. If you wait too long to answer, that’s not the character answering – that’s YOU trying to figure out the right thing to say!
(Character,) would you please tell me about yourself and what you are doing?
I’m an old scooter with big tires and a nice break for the rear wheel. I’m waiting on the street for someone who will drive me. Josefine as a child.
What do you like most about yourself? What are your strengths?
I have comfortable wheels and I’m very elegant when I go around corners.
What do you dislike most about yourself? Do you have weaknesses? What are they?
I would like to be faster with new, white tires. Then I could race! I’m very fast! I have a little horn that you can honk with your hand!
Scooter, you are in Josefine’s life experience, correct? They created you, right? What aspect of Josefine do you represent or most closely personify?
The young, fun part.
Scooter, if you could be anywhere you wanted to be and take any form you desired, would you change? If so, how?
I would become a brand new BMW motorbike with Boxer engine. A special engine with the cylinders outside. I’m racing on a huge highway and I’m going as fast as possible! I don’t have to have anyone on me. I allow people to come with me.
(Continue, answering as the transformed object, if it chose to change.)
BMW Motorcycle, how would you score yourself 0-10, in each of the following six qualities: confidence, compassion, wisdom, acceptance, inner peace, and witnessing? Why?
Confidence: 10
Compassion: ? I don’t need it. I’m the fastest…
Wisdom: 9
Acceptance: 10.5! Others are OK, but I’m the BEST!
Inner Peace: 9
Witnessing: 10 I am driving by the drama!
Motorcycle, if you scored tens in all six of these qualities, would you be different? If so, how?
I don’t need compassion and I’m tens in everything else. I allow people to drive me when they are nice. Do I need any more? I don’t think so.
How would Josefine’s life be different if she naturally scored like you do in all six of these qualities all the time?
She would forget faster about bad things because she would whiz right past them. She woudln’t be attached to bad thoughts. She wouldn’t be thinking all the time about all the ugly, nasty people. She could leave all that behind!
If you could live Josefine’s life for her, how would you live it differently?
Drive faster! Forget about the idiots! Leave them behind! She wouldn’t waste all this time thinking about the idiots. there would be m ore space for fun, self-confidence, new ideas!
If you could liveJosefine’s waking life for him/her today, would you handle Josefine’s three life issues differently? If so, how?
Her fear: It’s difficult to think about it. Id on’t have it. I’m fearless! Life is going on, I’m goiong on. I’m a fast motorcycle, I’m enjoying my life….
Low energy: Stop thinking about idiots. I don’t.
Whizzing thoughts: I would say, keep an eye on the target. Don’t get caught in a traffic circle. That’s boring!!!!
What three life issues would you focus on if you were in charge of Josefine’slife?
1. Develop self-confidence.
2. Breathing.
3. Looking for good streets to race on! Good people around her; not ones that drain her energy.
In what life situations would it be most beneficial for Josefine to imagine that she is you and act as you would?
Now, because I’m here NOW. Either feed ugly people to he black hole. If it is full of idiots she can drive faster and leave them in the past. She needs to learn to let the past be the past, not circle around and check it out again all the time.
Motorcycle, do you do drama? If not, why not?
I’m driving. Drama would be getting stuck in a traffic circle. I do a circle once; then I look for a good street.
What is your secret for staying out of drama?
I’m not attached to old stuff.
Why do you think that you are in Josefine’s life?
To show her that there is still a lot of power inside of her. Because I’m very beautiful.
How is Josefine most likely to ignore what you are saying to her?
Forget about me. Getting stuck in her past. She can get caught in idiot traffic circles.
What would you recommend that she do about that?
Step on the gas! Fiind the next exit. Put the light on. Move out!
Josefine, what have you heard yourself say?
There is still apart of myself that is powerful, beautiful, and that recommends that I don’t get stuck in the past. To look for good people to have in my life. Drive fast and not get stuck in the past. Find an exit out of ugly circle driving thoughts!
If this experience were a wake-up call from your life compass, what do you think it would be saying to you?
Buy a motorcycle!!!!!!! Tempting!!!! Let the past be the past!!!! If things don’t work out I move ahead.
