Show up for yourself just as you might show up for someone else in need. Pay attention to what you need right now. Be honest with yourself as you face yourself and figure out what’s been going right and what has not, as you list the pros and cons of you at this moment in time. Are you taking full responsibility for yourself? Are you able to not blame, point a finger at someone else, but own that you are your own biggest enemy? Are you able to look at your list of pros and cons and make a plan to tackle your current issues and needs? The first step in your next journey is about to begin. With full responsibility, take that first step today.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Trust yourself to your guides and helpers that they may attend to you. Ask for help and help will come, though it may arrive packaged in an unusual way. For you cannot control the ways of spirit or spirit helpers. They may have a sense of humor, but they are always kind and have your best interests in mind. Be open minded, open hearted and receptive to their ministrations and with love in your heart receive the love they wish only to grant you with no strings attached.

Sending you love,

In order for something new to begin, something old must end. Times of transition and change call constantly for endings. One day ends and another begins. The sun sets and the moon rises. The ocean ebbs and flows. There is a constant coming and going, in nature as in the lives of all living beings. Just as the urge for ending arises so does the urge to begin anew arise simultaneously. Practice endings and beginnings with awareness, noting your reactions. Are they positive? Are you looking forward to change? Or is it difficult for you? With awareness of the necessity for change, begin to see endings as the first step in a new beginning and to appreciate the cycles of life as they naturally occur for the greater good of yourself, and the greater good of all. Something new is always just about to begin.

Sending you love,

Find a spiritual discipline that you can rely on to nurture yourself during difficult times. It can be something as simple as taking a walk alone in a quiet setting, or sitting for a few minutes in a special spot, or simply taking a few minutes to breathe and calm the body and mind. This will provide a quiet contrast to the racket going on around you. It will comfort you and steady you. It will offer a slight respite from the chaos that abounds. It will bring you a few moments of peace and serenity.

Sending you love,

Have no regrets. What’s done is done and cannot be undone. But with awareness something different can be enacted now and in the future. From this day forth a new path may be forged, a new intention set. A new direction that is positive and life-affirming may be established. It’s never too late to set off in a new direction. It’s your choice and choice is free.

Sending you love,
