Self-knowledge exercise

I invite you today to look at you. To put yourself in front of a mirror, to look deeply into your eyes and allow yourself to talk about yourself to the person projected in the mirror.

First connect with your eyes, take a few deep breaths and talk about yourself, but in the third person. As if you were talking about someone else. Telling someone else's life to that person in the mirror.

Tell your childhood story with all the details you remember. Count the most memorable moments, the happy and the unhappy ones too. Tell how the relationship with your family was, how was the relationship with friends (if you had them present in life at that time). His relationship with schoolmates, with teachers, with studies ...

Talk about the economic situation of the people who created you and how it affected you. Tell about what you liked and didn't like to do, about the games that amused you, the songs that you listened to.

Express yourself about the pains and tastes of your childhood.

Then, tell about your body's story, about how you related to it since you can remember, whether you accepted it or rejected it in some way, about the love and hate cases with your own body (if you had them), about how you developed your sexuality, if you suffered any abuse, about how you feel today with that body that belongs to you.

Talk about your emotions, how you feel about yourself, your personal relationships at work, family, friendships, love ...

Tell us what it did to you and make you feel guilty, reflect on what the fault is, where it comes from and talk about how you have dealt with them.

Tell me if this person you report about, if you think he is trustworthy, if he has friends, if he is open, if he is available. If you are a person who donates to others.

Tell the limitations you know he has, if that person has been true to himself, if he has taken care of himself physically, mentally, emotionally, energetically and spiritually.

Express your greatest joys and greatest sorrows. His greatest achievements and what he considers his greatest losses. Highlight your greatest recent discoveries.

Say the dreams you have. What you want for yourself and how you visualize the paths to get there.

Report the biggest changes in recent years in every aspect you can. Say the things that you think are cool to continue in the same way and the things that you think are important for a change.

And look deeply into the eyes of your (a) experimenter (a), reflected in the mirror, and thank him for the opportunity to talk about this person with whom you live so close and have so much to know about him.

Tell her to open up to life and allow herself to blossom in the sweetest and most enchanting way she can. That you get to know yourself, look at yourself with affection, love and patience. That love starts from within.

On page 18, of the book Love, Freedom and Solitude, there is the following excerpt from an Osho speech: “The person who loves himself feels so much love and becomes so blessed that love begins to overflow, he begins to reach others. He needs to reach! If you live love, you need to share it. You will not be able to continue loving yourself forever, because something will be absolutely clear to you: if you love a person, yourself, it is so immensely ecstatic and beautiful, more ecstasies will be waiting for you, if you start spreading your love with , many people!"

May love grow from each one and overflow in abundance from within us.
