your mind is not your enemy: it's a misused genius

In human design, one of our main focuses is to stop relying on the mind as our primary decision maker.

Yes I know. the mind is chaotic and annoying and far too easily manipulated into thinking a certain way. Yes, the mind gets in the way of deeply embodied self-trusting decision making. And yes, the mind is probably the energy center that is most easily conditioned.

But be honest: how fun is your mind when it is in genius mode? When you have one of those days when you just can’t stop having good ideas, making connections that you hadn’t made yet, realizations and clarity popping around up there like sweet buttery microwave popcorn?

The greatest creations and art and inventions came from someone’s mind. Your greatest creations and genius and inventions WILL come from your mind. And so: SO. The mind is not the enemy. It is inherently an incredible tool. It is positively vital, if you are going to tap into your highest potential for genius.

But it is so, deeply, devastatingly misused.

The mind of most humans is focused on looping the same stories over and over, or maybe on trying to figure out how the owner of the mind can “fit in”, or maybe it is focused on telling them what a failure they are for not “fitting in”.

The mind is not the enemy, but it is absolutely misused.

And so releasing the mind as our main decision making tool, and redistributing those tasks to your Strategy and Authority is a vital part of your Human Design experiment. Why? So that your mind is freed up to take in important information, process the important information, make connections of that important information with information you already had stored in there: and turn it to wisdom, knowledge and ideas. Your mind is not just a tool for processing but it is also the root of your unique, pure, irreplaceable and unrepeatable genius. 

When you undertake a Human Design experiment you are not just getting back in touch with a neglected body wisdom oracle sitting there waiting to guide you toward what is correct for you: you are simultaneously reactivating your inner creative genius.

Human Design Practitioner Training 2.0 (L1 & L2) takes this viewpoint when we talk about Authority: not just in terms of Intuition, but also what the mind IS doing; versus what it COULD be doing.

Every module of this training is specifically designed to teach everything that is important about understanding, experimenting with and GUDING using the human design system.
