I am light, You are light, we are all beams of light!
I am doing the best I can and I recognize that in you.
We are all doing the best we can!
When I realize this in everyone I meet, a shift happens.
I no longer feel alone.
Instead, I feel a huge space within me holding empathy, compassion,
honesty, and wisdom.
I feel LOVE!
I feel connected to life and all of my brothers and sisters. Everywhere.
I am not alone. You are not alone.
This gift of life IS a profound spiritual experience.
I am seeking wholeness, not perfection.
I know that in order to be whole, I need to accept all of my perfections and imperfections equally.
I am a large container holding my love & fear, joy & anger, light & darkness, strengths & insecurities.
Everyone has to go through the woods and meet the big bad wolf in order to get to Grandma's house!
I have the courage to face my fears!
I have the courage to feel my pain & suffering!
Fighting or avoiding my pain, or projecting it onto others, feeds it - giving it more power.
I hold in my container all my difficulties as SACRED.
They bless me with the LOVE WISDOM of KNOWING.
They are all gateways to my wholeness of being.
I am seeking wholeness, not perfection.
Breathing in, I feel the love of the Holiday Season. Breathing out, I embody the love of holiday season.
I release my expectations and judgments of others. I notice the spirit residing within each friend and family member. I know that they are being the best that they know how at the moment. I allow their challenges to be their challenges. I give of my compassion.
Today I feel the joy of the season. Today I feel the peace of the season. Today I feel the love of the season.
I allow the joy and bliss of the holiday season fill my home and my heart.
I am grateful for those that I love. And I have so much love to give!
I give love no matter what I get back. I am more blessed when I give than when I receive.
I release my memories of the past. They do not exist; they are just thoughts. I let them go and choose to live fully in the moment. I know it is a choice.
I celebrate THIS instance in time… for it IS divine, whole, complete and perfect just as it is.
I release all holiday stress and expectations of what I think I should be. I allow myself to be ME.
I choose to be blessed beyond measure this holiday season! I choose to give out of my blessings!
Today I am breathing in the light and love of the season and sharing it with everyone I meet!
Why does my life seem like a never-ending list of obligations?? Do I feel guilty that I am not doing enough? Or afraid that no one else will do the job or at least not as good as I would?
From this day forward, I commit to examining my motivation for taking on so many obligations.
By understanding WHY? and WHAT compels me to do so, I take the first step in regaining my power and can establish limits to simplify my life.
I ask myself, “ Is this commitment vital to my well-being? Does it add value to my life?
Does it cause me or my family stress or rob me of the opportunity to refresh & renew?
When paring down my unnecessary obligations, I remind myself:
It is OK to say NO firmly. If I can’t say NO, my YES doesn’t mean much.
It is necessary to ASK for HELP.
I must delegate responsibilities and trust other people’s capabilities.
As I divest myself from non-vital obligations that serve no purpose in my life, I regain my equilibrium and will feel more energetic and enthusiastic about life in general!
However difficult it is to simplify my schedule, I know that by doing so, the new space I create will allow for greater potential, creativity, and expansion in all of the vital areas of my life!
As head bows and chin draws to chest,
I watch the breath as it moves into rest,
the lines of the head meet the spirals of the heart,
and bound thoughts and emotions try to unravel apart,
But find themselves trapped in an energetic bind,
in an unconscious dialogue between the heart and the mind,
Manifesting as knots in the centre of my chest,
where the wisdom of the heart lies denied and suppressed,
Tears spring to eyes,frightened and lost,
knowing that disloyalty to self wages a cost.
And every time I betray my heart, I die a little death,
by drowning in pools of confusion and mixed emotion that swim in spirals on my breath.
Gradually the heart stills and silence starts to speak,
fear melts into rest and the tears dry to my cheek,
I surrender resistance,
and bow to these emotions as the voices of my soul,
trusting that they’ll navigate me back to feeling whole.
With head still drawn, I exhale and surrender all volition
and with in breath, gratefully, return to intuition.
What flavor of energy am I putting out in the world?
Is it bitter or sweet?
How heavy is the energy I am putting out in the world?
Does it weigh me down, or give me wings?
Where does the energy I put out in the world come from?
A place of love (heart) or a place of fear(ego)?
Whatever I choose to put out in the world, consciously or unconsciously, through my thoughts, feelings, words, and actions, is exactly what I attract towards me.
Like attracts like.
My life is a reflection of everything I broadcast.
I create everything in my life.
From this day forward, I ask spirit to be my co-creator.
I choose to consciously put out in the world only what my soul wishes to receive.
I easily and effortlessly project into the world love, light, freedom and happiness! Because that is what I believe I truly deserve!
I am willing to be PRESENT.
I know I cannot see a situation as it truly is if I have expectations.
I release all expectation, judgment, & fear and open myself to the art of living!
I choose to be right here, right NOW.
I choose to be AWAKE WITH what IS.
I wholeheartedly desire freedom from the shackles of fear that bind me.
Deep down, I know the secret: The more I try to avoid suffering, the more I suffer.
As I accept what IS, I release myself from suffering.
I choose to make good use of my pain and suffering! For embedded in it is infinite wisdom!
I am awake and alive in this exact blessed moment and I know that each and every moment is precious, and has the exact same potential for wholeness and pure joy!
I live each day, each moment, with an open heart.
With my heart open, I know that I am a beloved part of all creation.
I belong. You belong. We ALL belong.
I am able to see the uniqueness and equality of ALL Beings.
I enjoy being in a body and am grateful to be alive on this amazing planet at this extraordinary time.
I am able to give and receive.
I am compassionate and courageous.
I am an eternal spirit, limited only by my beliefs and fears.
I see that I am a creator, not a victim, and my inner guidance steers me in the right direction at the right time. Always.
I live each day, each moment, with an open heart.
I do not want to run away from my life - I want to relax into my life!
As I notice myself needing to always be busy and constantly moving,
I ask within, “ Am I running away from something? Or am I moving towards something that is truly exciting to my soul and makes my cells sing?
Am I busying myself because it keeps me distracted from something I don’t like in my life? Or am I busy with right action and positive change?
When I make choices to escape my situation, I know that I will only re-create the same situation in another form.
I know that to truly evolve and better my life, I must face my challenges internally, instead of distract myself from them externally.
Although it is painful to face my fears, it is well worth it in the end!
Deep down I know it is the only way to free my energy and transform my perspective.
I then begin to use my new vision to manifest the life of joy and happiness that I truly deserve!
I do not want to run away from my life.
I want to relax into my life!
I look about and see only wonder.
I feel an intense curiosity welling up in my soul.
I strongly desire, right now, to fully experience the richness, wonder, and mystery of life all around me!
As I let my sense of awe guide me today, the glories of the universe will no doubt reveal themselves to me in time.
As I look about with wonder & curiosity in my eyes, I see more of the worlds profound beauty than I ever thought possible.
I see not only what is before me, but the very essence of what is before me!
Today, and each day, I am willing to recognize the wonders all around me.
I am willing to open my mind to the profound beauty of life.
