Why Do We Get Such Great Ideas When Sitting On The Toilet?
What’s with the power of “the Throne?”
I had a major awakening while in the loo this morning. I had experienced this before when an amazing insight or idea came to me while nonchalantly sitting on the “throne.”
I wonder why. Are there any throne experts out there who can shed some light on this topic?
Is it because our mind, just for the few minutes while we’re in the bathroom, is at rest, usually reading some mundane thing on our phone or the back of our shampoo bottle?
Is it because we know that we have complete privacy to do our thing just for a few minutes behind that locked door?
Beside our cats, pushing their paws under the door, trying to get in, we are literally alone, letting our bodies dispose of… well, you get the picture without me going into detail.
Doing the “doo” is actually a spiritual thing on some level. As we sit there, we eliminate the toxins in our body, totally releasing the things our body does not need. This also refers to the things in life that we don’t need.
So, could it be that once we release “stuff,” we have to replace it with something else, like a great idea?
This is an interesting topic I’ve never read about before, but it makes sense to me. In order to receive, we must let go, no matter what form it takes.
