Life asks you to take outer risks, to be daring, to allow yourself to have experiences that will help you navigate into and through life, that will mature you as you journey into the world around you. Life also asks you to take inner risks, to be daring in your spiritual practices, to question how you think about and perceive the world within. Are you a spiritual adventurer? Do you like to ponder the meaning of life and your purpose in it? Are you open to finding out? Are you open to exploring some new ideas? Are you ready for change? You may think that the world outside of you is the most challenging aspect of human life, but we are here to tell you that it is the inner world that will challenge you the most, the inner world that is full of mystery and confusion, that presents itself in so many ways, through the body, mind, emotions, and the spirit. Look inward today and try to connect to a new part of yourself that you have never visited before. You might be surprised at what you find.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Find balance, within today, just as you found something else, within, yesterday. Each new day is a new chance to try on something different, perhaps to dress differently but also to think differently. It’s in your thoughts that the first stirrings of change really begin, in how you think about yourself and how you speak to yourself. Are you kind to yourself? Or are you rude and uncaring? Are you encouraging, or are you demeaning? What is the most common word you find that you say to yourself? Is it positive? What do you see when you look at yourself? Are you appreciative and loving when you catch a glimpse of yourself? Are you happy when you think about your life and all that you’ve done? Today offers another chance to upgrade your thinking about yourself, to say something new and unusual to yourself. Today is an opportunity to begin a new journey of transformation. And that is something only you can do.

Sending you love,

Honor yourself today, in whatever way feels appropriate, in a way that allows you to feel your fullness of spirit, your interconnectedness to life, and your energy in the flow of it all. In honoring yourself a little more often, you engage in a different kind of language toward the self, perhaps a language that is loving and appreciative, a language that is encouraging and engaging, a language that is challenging and confrontational, as well as a language that is urging you to be more accepting of who you are right now, of where you are right now and of all the potential that still lies ahead for you. It is never too late to change yourself in some way, to love yourself in a new way, and to honor your true self. Your spirit, which lives inside you, is you, and only wishes the best for you. Think about yourself today in some new ways and allow yourself to love yourself for all that you have been, for all that you are now, and for all that you will become.

Sending you love,

Every attempt to change is noticed and given much attention on the other side of life. The guides and helpers assigned to you love to come to your aid. They wait for you to reach out, to ask for help, for they love to show you the best way forward. Don’t forget that they are there, that they are ready and willing to guide you, that you have many beautiful souls watching over you. Set your attention more often in that direction. Ask for signs to guide you, and you will soon begin to notice that there is always some answer coming toward you. Mysterious as it may sound, there is help, and there is healing, and there is so much more to life than you can imagine. Begin today by opening up to all of that!

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Circle back around, throughout the day, to your positive affirmations of thanks and gratitude for all that you are given. It’s a great way to reaffirm your commitment to change, to grow, and to become a more positive and happier person. In so doing you open the door for good energy to come your way, in very unexpected ways. So put yourself in the way of good vibrations, within and without.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne
