Use The Uketamo Mindset to Take Charge

The powerful Japanese mountain concept of Uketamo

The Haguro Yamabushi concept of Uketamo is a powerful philosophy. Uketamo has the power to change you instantly from a victim, to someone in charge of their feelings.

If you let it.

Mindset is all a matter of mindset. You can choose how you perceive stimuli in your life. You can choose your mindset. All it takes is to know that any stimuli you have doesn’t have to have an effect on how you feel about it.

In most likelihood, it probably will. But if you can accept that feeling for what it is, a mere feeling, then you can start on the road to acceptance, of Uketamo.

Once you turn that feeling into acceptance, you begin to turn the ratchet in the opposite direction. You begin to start the gears in motion that get you to a better mindset.

The Uketamo mindset.
