Unless you’re a lawyer (or someone in need of a lawyer), you probably don’t spend much time considering how the law impacts your life. On the other hand, learning about conscious law connects you with the secrets of unlocking your potential.
Let me explain.
Imposed Law
There is Outer Law and there is Inner Law. Each plays a different role in life on this planet. Outer Law addresses commercial, social and political interactions. Governments create laws to control behavior in the name of establishing order, protecting health and public welfare and providing safety. Outer Law influences collective behavior and interaction. These laws are written down and codified, so that you know the existing rules to follow as part of society.
Outer law is governed by other people. It is something imposed upon you as a framework that places limitations and controls on how you live life.
You already know about this aspect of the law, don’t you?
Inner Law: Key to Your Potential
What is the other side of this? Inner Law. Inner Law is about how life works. It’s why I think of it as conscious law. It opens you to a bigger picture of life that embraces your potential.
These immutable inner laws affect whether you experience a series of confusing, disordered messes or a grand collaborative dance between the microcosm—you, and the macrocosm—everything else that (you think) is not-you. You may not know them, see them or understand how they work. Yet your awareness of the way in which Inner Law operates determines your moment-to-moment experience of life. Here’s what I mean: you feel yourself flowing with life when you are following Inner Law.
Inner Law is administered from within you. Adhering to Inner Law strengthens your connection with inner guidance and creative intelligence, revealing your next step. Inner direction is available to you in every moment. You have free will to follow or not. It is your choice.
The Gift of Alignment
How does this work? Following Inner Law is about alignment between your inner direction and your outer actions. It takes disciple and fortitude. It takes practice and patience. Alignment requires your willingness to stop, to question, to listen and to obey. You begin to master this intimate partnership that is bigger than you alone, where your own creative life force is allied with the Universe’s energy of manifestation.
With each step this alliance becomes more deeply interwoven into your being. A sense of trust in your inner knowing is established. You know you are on the right track and your confidence flourishes. The result? You manifest more than you ever dreamed possible.
The gift you receive is a feeling of reverence for life and a deep sense of joy.
Here is the truth: life is designed to work. We just haven’t been taught the inner workings! Yet every moment brings you the opportunity to choose how you respond and what action to take. The vastness of possibility—your potential—becomes available when you embrace Inner Law.
This is living life in alignment with your inner direction, an essential aspect of Inner Law.

Reflection
Take a breath. Release it. Take another. Devote some dedicated time of concentration/meditation. It doesn’t need to be hours of quiet, perhaps only 15 minutes. Then allow the question to simmer within you through the weekend. Let responses bubble up into your awareness. Notice new ways of thinking, of images or ideas that arise spontaneously. Pay attention to your dreams. Let it happen. Be aware. See where it leads you next. Let yourself savor this process of receiving from yourself. Don’t judge whatever comes up, just receive it. Make notes.
You may want to share something from this process. Sharing is an important way to anchor an insight in your body. It can lead you to deeper insight. It can stimulate action.

Laurie, I’m curious about the name, “The Baca Journey.” I’m a native Coloradan with connections to the Baca in southern Colorado–is this the origin of the name of your work?
I appreciate your emphasis here on the joy and enjoyment that arise from listening to inner guidance.
It does indeed relate to the Baca Grande in southern Colorado, Chara. It is a place where a group of us gathered for “inner research” for many years. Check out the welcome page for more on that. http://www.thebacainstitute.com/welcome/
What is your connection there?
Laurie
The only inner law I govern myself by is Love. For me that encompasses kindness, compassion, acceptance and leaves behind judgement or expectation.
If i step away from it, i feel it in my body right away. And I breathe, center myself and begin again. It really is that simple. 🙂
Lovely, Shelley! It really is simple…
Hi, Laurie. I’m a Colorado College alumna, so I spent quite a bit of time on the CC Baca campus. I also was very close to some of the monks at Nada Hermitage in the 1990s, and my parents had a number of close friends and connections in Crestone. I expect we probably have some friends or acquaintances in common!
I imagine so, Chara. I spent so much time there. My daughter was even conceived there!
This is a topic I write about often. It’s simple, live from the inside out vs the outside in. Taking the time to connect with that inner source of power IS the Key! Great post Laurie.
Thanks Debra! We are on the same wavelength. Here is a post I did a while ago on living from the inside out.
Such an important truth, and a beautiful reminder for us all. Thank you so much for sharing it with us!
And another Coloradoan here…in my case, having been born/raised in Boulder. 🙂 I am loving all the inspirational connections the universe continues to shine…serendipity and beautiful connections, in so many places and ways!
Thank you, Christa.
My, today must be Colorado day here! I’m not a native but it’s been home for the past 20+ years…Lovely to have this connection with you!
I have found that sometimes following one’s inner law requires breaking away from the collective understanding and behavior established in the outer law. Having the courage to do that is the most freeing experience I’ve had!
BTW, hubby and I own land in Colorado but have never lived there. Does that count? 🙂
That has certainly been my experience, too, Sheila.Aligning with my inner guidance carries me through,even in the face of that breaking away.
Sure it counts! You are welcome into the honorary Colorado club! (Where is your land? Come visit!)
