Let your mind be free of fear and worry for only a minute so that you may experience the freedom that is naturally yours. In freedom from fear and worry the mind calms down and the body relaxes, loving kindness and compassion become natural states, and new habits develop based on a new set of parameters. A stark contrast between the old you and the new you is experienced and your understanding of your life and life in general expand your awareness. It takes some work but is a real possibility. A change in perspective on life and a ridding of old ideas is a good place to begin. You are much more than you think you are and you have the power to change.

Sending you love,

Remain in awe. Turn always to wonder and the possibilities that abound in life, to the surprise synchronicities that show you that you are not alone, that you are on the right track, and that all will be well. Find the awe in everyday life, within and without, whether in the quiet of the inner self or in experiences in the world around you. Remain in awe.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

It’s not that hard to calm the central nervous system. Look at a beautiful picture, and breathe deeply. Imagine a place that is special to you, and breathe deeply. Close your eyes, and breathe deeply. Sit in the light of the sun, and breathe deeply. Take a walk, and breathe deeply. Sit beside water, and breathe deeply. Gaze at the night sky, and breathe deeply. There are so many opportunities in a day to get calm, to take care of yourself for a few moments, and to align with your own spirit. Just do it, just breathe.

Sending you love,

When change comes unexpectedly the best course of action is to wholeheartedly embrace it and with a calm heart accept its place in your life. Sometimes new doors open, a new path appears, or a sudden change in direction is necessary. Sometimes survival means doing something you never imagined you could or would do.

All of these opportunities for change are also opportunities to change the self, within and without, and to do so with love, kindness and compassion will make the coming journey that much more meaningful.

Sending you love,

Remember, what has not yet happened has already happened. What is to come has already arrived. What will be already is. All time is now. There is no difference between one day and the next except your perspective on it. Keep a positive attitude and all will be well.
