All you need to do is start with this very moment, then the next and the next. Make space for the truth of these moments to expand so you can live what you already know—in your choices, your priorities, and the energy you embody.
You’ll find inner aliveness…and everyone around you gets to bask in your glow.
None of these truths will be news to you. You know them already more intimately than you could imagine. So
let’s explore what’s possible…
Savoring
Life is bursting at the seams in every moment in an amazing array of people, objects, sounds, sights, and situations. Rather than judging,
evaluating, or taking things for granted, try savoring what’s present.
Use your senses to experience what shows up in your life. For example, if you’re eating an apple, taste it, smell it, hear and feel the crunch. Savor the deliciousness of the apple moment.
If you’re walking in nature, take your time and drink it in fully. If you’re feeling emotions, be curious to meet them as they are.
Now savor the experience of everything—being in your home and with your loved ones,
doing the dishes, walking the dog, working… Savor what’s present, and your whole experience of your life will change.
Wholeness
You may
have had life experiences that make you believe you’re inadequate or unworthy, but is that really the truth of who you are?
Even if it’s just a whisper in your being, you know that prior to any limiting ideas about yourself, you are alive, loving, and free. Something in you believes that this is true. Because it
is.
What would it be like to live from wholeness? You’re present in your relationships and available to intimate connection. You let go of trying to fix yourself and instead open into a vast field of compassion. You’re able to flow with what life brings you.
You realize that every moment offers opportunities that support happiness and well-being.
Instead of pretending you’re damaged, assume that you’re whole. Then let your life experience
unfold…gloriously…
Peace
You can choose to resist what is actually here in this moment, but you are going against the grain of what is, and
you’ll suffer. What you already know is that peace is your true nature.
You don’t need to find inner peace. If you stop battling your own experience, peace is revealed, naturally. Experiment with not running from your emotions or believing things will be better “if only” something were different. Effortlessly, you’ll realize
peace.
You have to work to be at war by believing your thoughts that resist and divide. Do you want to be peaceful? You don’t have to do one single thing except align your conscious awareness with things as they already are.
~~~~~~~~~~~
There is always an opportunity to live what you already know. And that’s an inspiring invitation to take into your day…
Love to you...
