We live in a world with time. Clocks tell time and you think in time in terms such as past, present and future.
Actually, there is only one time frame and that is now.
It's easy to say that, but what is everything and how does it compare to now.
Everything is now. So now, then, is everything.
That means everything is now. Simply put, but get the whole idea. That's harder on your brain.
If everything is now, the past and the future do not exist. It is also all the same, past is future and vice versa.
We also understand things with language. Something happened, so that's over. Something belongs to yesterday and then you have the future and things you look forward to. But then those have already happened. But how then? If one thing has happened, the other has also already happened if everything is now.
All that is now is very interesting. But my brain, for example, doesn't understand any of it at all, and that's okay. That's the side effect when you start thinking about this. You just have to embrace and accept this feeling.
Einstein called time the fourth dimension. We live three-dimensionally.
Space passes through time, according to Einstein, but our brain can't figure out what that is.
There may be many more dimensions.
This means that your brain - which is attuned to three-dimensional and how you experience everything - can't do anything with the phenomenon that everything is now.
Science about now and the past
Scientists besides Einstein also have great ideas about what now is all about. These indicate that the past and now, is now. The future, according to scientists, does not exist.
But the universe does get bigger every time, according to scientists, as the future becomes now. So as time keeps moving and the past keeps getting bigger, the universe keeps getting bigger.
In doing so, this theory also makes the idea of "now" difficult, because then now can be very difficult to remain. In the end, then, everything becomes the past[1].
Your intuition and the future
Still, as humans, we feel there is a future.
And if you go along with the fact that everything is now, that everything has already happened, then in the future you're going to experience the past more, and that's where intuition comes from. There are degrees of intuition, you can also train that.
Firefighters, for example, are trained in unconscious perception, which makes them feel they need to get out of a building because it is about to collapse.
You also intuitively know things in your field.
For example, I hear from people when they make a change in the problem or when they realize what their real problem is.
Intuition is listening to your past. To the story you've already told yourself and all you have to do is follow it. Then you know what is a good decision and all you have to do is follow that.
I call intuition more like listening for what's next. Listening to the voice. Hearing that voice clearly about what I can do.
But that voice, that's me. It is also crazy for me not to listen, because that voice knows what is coming. Who knows that is the path of zero resistance.
Am I going to experience things that aren't fun? Absolutely. But that voice always keeps me realizing that it has already happened and I just have to see it through.
This is hard on your ego and your IC, though, because it makes it seem like you are no longer doing it yourself.
But you can listen to the voice in your head, heart or gut and this will always take you to where there are no words. That can be scary, because who are you without your I.D.? Then you are nothing, but because of that you are also directly everything.
The latter is nice, but the idea that you are nothing is not nice. That's when your IC rebels.
Little thoughts like these can help you. Everything is now. If you think about your past you are experiencing your past now. If you think about tomorrow, you are experiencing the future now. In essence, you are really only experiencing now and really only experiencing the past.
Everything you see has been created by you and given words, giving it existence . So you also only see the past.
This couldn't be any different, or I wouldn't be able to encompass it in words.
The future is always the past when put into words.
If you can take this all the way, you'll discover that you're already there. That things are already the way you want them to be. Why are you still kidding yourself that something is going to happen?
This idea can be very soothing.

Living in the now
So you can think about the past and think about the future, but you're doing it all now. By thinking about it, you relive things or visualize things you want (or fear).
Especially if you worry a lot, it is important to live in the now, otherwise you may be suffering twice or even suffering for nothing.
If you ruminate a lot about your past, it's also important to live in the now, because you can't change the past anyway.
Living correctly in the now and having faith in a good future and even working toward that good future often ensures that you have a more stable life[2].
Confidence in the future is also important for young adults to live better and more pleasantly in the now[3].
When everything is now, but you think everything is going completely wrong, it often causes you to live a more financially unstable life. Instead, by trusting your intuition and living in the here and now, you ensure better steps and preparations for a bright future.
Hypnotherapy to improve your now
As mentioned, you can train your intuition to listen carefully for the next step. Firefighters do it, I did it with my hypnotherapy skills, and you can get help.
With hypnotherapy, for example, you can get help to better listen to your subconscious. To see at what times in your life you listened carefully to your intuition and when fear stopped you from doing so and then what the effect was.
By getting those moments right, you actually teach yourself to recognize your voice again when it sends you what the next right step is.
With regression, for example, you can find out from moments when they were good and when fears got in your way. Those fears can then be eliminated by taking a closer look at those moments. The hypnotherapist helps you with this.
You can also receive suggestions to help you trust your positive story. For example, you can repeat these every day while doing self-hypnosis or even while standing in front of a mirror as affirmations.
With that, you prime yourself to trust yourself more, such as:
- My feeling is like a compass.
- Fear is a bad counselor.
- I get to choose for myself.
- I am good enough the way I am.
These are just examples. Depending on your beliefs, experiences and fears, you may receive other suggestions to help you trust in the now and in your future.
