Starting over — changing one’s beliefs, is a bold endeavor. It is quite possible that along the way you may become discouraged or disillusioned.

At such times it is a good idea to give yourself time to relax. Turn your attention to something else entirely, and mentally say, “To hell with it all for now.” The entire idea involves a process in which you try and not try at the same time, in which you do not strain to achieve results, but instead gently begin to allow yourself to follow the contours of your own subjective feelings, to uncover those spiritual and biologically valid beliefs of early childhood, and to bring to them the very best wisdom that you have acquired throughout your life so far.

So when you do become discouraged, a playful diversion should give you refreshing release. An escapist movie or novel, or the purchase of some small frivolous item may also serve to relax your conscious mind. We are actually involved in changing a way of life, in altering our very view of the self and the world in the hopes of acquiring a new sense of harmony with our bodies, our minds, our fellow creatures, and the environment.

Indeed, there is no more exciting adventure, and it will bring about more surprises and discoveries than any expedition to alien landscapes. Your beliefs are indeed alive in their own fashion. Now, instead of taking them for granted, you will begin to notice both their uniqueness and their variety.
