The imagination is there to be used and this episode invites us to conjure up a host of cool characters of our own choice and design who might inspire and influence us to be better livers of life. Whether it’s imagining Leonard Cohen or the Buddha or Grace O’Malley giving off their vibes or even the words we imagine they would offer, or be it abstract principles personified – courage, kindness, endurance, hope, clarity, humour, etc. – it is in our power to consciously use the imagination to counteract the negative influences it is anyway daily exerting on us unconsciously as a result of social programming, inherited trauma and the maladaptive neuroses and coping mechanisms we have automatised. The mind can be a slippery rainbow fish – so why not anchor its elements into faces we can talk to, tell to take a hike, beckon closer or bounce ideas off. Now I wouldn’t fancy living like this for any great stretch, but I’m gonna try it out for a week and see how it goes! Feel free to join me and enjoy a break from the status quo of your usual self-talk and experience. Who knows, maybe you'll find sides of yourself you didn’t realise were even within reach.
