More About This Show On How Your Mind Can Free Your Body With Cristina Pujol Jensen
During our interview, John spoke to Cristina Pujol Jensen about how she looks at consciousness and the mind-body connection that it creates.
Cristina Pujol Jensen explains, “there is a huge difference how you live life if you are present to what you’re doing that if you’re not. For some people, it takes longer than others. It depends on the environment that you’ve been raised in. I was lucky enough to have a mother that I think was a coach. Even though she wasn’t like it, she was really in her mind.
So anything that I was complaining she will always make me think, “Okay, so what is the other person thinking?” And, you know, if I had a conflict with someone, she would be like, what is the other person thinking happened and analyze it from a different perspective. And I remember a point, what I told my mom, okay, give me five minutes of complaining, then we’ll get into solving the situation.
But I think that imprinted in my head always thinking, how does the other person see it, you know, we are conscious of you having an impact on everybody that is around – you speak a word, and you don’t know how it’s gonna land. So to put thoughts into everything that you do is not sometimes possible. When you work with people you interact with or are with your family, you need to be conscious of what’s happening and how you interact because you have an impact. Whether you want to or not, you have an effect always.
And some things are not easy to deal with. But we’re here to learn, and we’re here for a certain amount of time. So why not learn the things that you came here to learn? You choose to be in this body you choose to be in this place? It’s not easy to say that sometimes because some people are not dealt with a fair amount of cars, or how do you say that? So we don’t always we don’t start the same way. Some people start very privileged, and some people don’t.
But the choice you make on how you interpret what you focus on, where you put the meaning, and the meaning you’re giving to what’s happening so you can make a huge difference. And you see that with many successful people that didn’t start, you know, in a wealthy family. So we know where you put your mind, what’s the meaning you give to things? That is part of creating the mind-body connection.
There are three things that I always think to myself: Where’s your focus? What’s the meaning you give to that? And what are you going to do now with that? How are you going to live your life? How are you going to teach? How are you going to have events? How are you going to interact with people? How are you going to make an environment that works for you? And that, for me, is putting consciousness in any event, and make any work not only for you but for everybody around you.”
