Watch your energy throughout the day. Notice what gives energy and what takes energy, what replenishes and what diminishes. Be aware of what nurtures your body, mind and spirit and what only takes from you without reward. Taking care of the whole self begins with being aware of energy levels and how you are affected by the things you engage in. Sometimes your body alone will tell you if you are on the right track or not, if what you are determined to pursue is actually good and beneficial for you. Watch your energy levels and let them reveal new truths to you as you go through your day, letting you know what’s really right.

Sending you love,

Develop resilience, the ability to bounce back from anything, to go with the flow of life, to embrace its ups and downs and to know when it is time to rush to action and when to retreat. Resilience entails maintaining a certain presence, awareness, elasticity and always with an eye on the future and the potential it holds. If the path you are on is the right path and the choices you are making the right ones your personal energy will be right there with you as you take your journey, offering you what you need so that you always have enough. If you are on the wrong path your lack of resilience and energy might be showing you that something’s not working. Pay attention to all your energy systems, mental, physical, spiritual and emotional. Are they in alignment and functioning to the fullest?

If you decide to live life on your own terms then be prepared to deal with the consequences. Not every way is a way that will bring fulfillment. Not every way is a way that  is full of heart. Not every way is a way that offers the best opportunities. Not every way takes into consideration the greater good. However you decide to live your life this time around will also determine how you live your life the next time around. Spend some time in deep contemplation. Ask yourself some hard questions and decide what is right for you to do now and what your next step should be. To walk a path with heart, or not?

Sending you love,

Have patience with yourself just as the bird sitting upon a nest has patience. Soon your eggs too will hatch and new life will come forth. In the meantime envision that new life and what you want it to look like. See it unfolding. See yourself living it. Even as the bird feels the eggs beneath it in the nest it has created it does not question what comes next, for it lives the program as it exists. Humans however can use imagination to bring forth new life, interrupting an old program that no longer works. For the bird, it’s one dream only, but for humans the ability to dream a new dream at any time is truly a gift.

Beyond human experience lies what you call the great unknown. In true reality it is the other side of life and full of great knowledge, not the unknown at all but the source of all possibility, transparent and fully available to explore. In your dreams you may tap into its infinite possibilities, yet do you believe what you experience? Some day you will know. Until then, trust all that you are shown so that you learn the simple art of trusting your experiences, in sleeping and waking life.
