Notice how your good intentions need constant reminders to remain viable and in your consciousness, how easily they slip away when you take your attention off them. Like water they flow away. Like the wind they are gone. Turn them into substantial reminders so that they do not flow away like water under a bridge or blow away like the wind, so that they remain in the mind as mantras to change. Change is good, but don’t forget that even change must be constantly engaged if it is to have the desired effects. Keep your intentions alive and well and all will be well with you as well!

Sending you love,

Spend some time today in quiet contemplation, alone and away from the hustle and bustle of life, away from the busy thoughts that rumble constantly through your head. Stand or sit or lie down, and without falling asleep let your body relax. Let your mind empty and grow quiet as you concentrate on this one thought: “I am only energy in this moment; everything is energy.” Let yourself feel energy pulsing and forming you, and let it be calm. Molecules in vibration, energy in motion. Feel energy pulse into the form of your body, forming you. Know that you can calm it and contain it and experience it as your wholeness at any time. This is you. You are a being of energy.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Stay grounded in truth, in what is real, in what is right, and in what is going to aid you on your path of growth. All beings are on a path of growth. That is the universal objective of life, to grow, evolve and become more than you were when you started. To grow and evolve entail learning kindness, compassion and love, what they mean personally and what they mean universally. Learning to be kind, compassionate and loving toward the self often precedes the ability to be kind, compassionate and loving towards others, but often it is the other way around. To be honest and truthful with yourself is a big step on the road to kindness, compassion and love. Stay in truth, and before long the other attributes of an evolving life will fall easily into place.

Sending you love,

There is no shame in wanting fulfillment, in whatever shape or form you desire it. Look to nature and how naturally it fulfills itself, how each flower strives to fully bloom, how each fruit tree pushes its fruit to ripen, how every bird sings its mating song and seeks its partner, how naturally a human baby grows into adulthood, seeking its own fullness. Fulfillment means many different things to many different people but the path is the same, the intent is the same, the dream is the same. Continue the dream, it’s only natural.

Sending you love,

Pay attention to what your physical body tells you about your habits, decisions and choices. Is it telling you that you are overdoing something, or that you are not taking care of yourself? Your body is your place of residence for your spirit and your completeness for this lifetime. It houses your wholeness, that which you once were and all that you presently are. Honor it, and with gratitude prepare it well for each day so that it is well balanced, satisfied, and kept in good condition. Your creativity requires a physical body that is in good shape in order to blossom. Your spirit respects a body that is flowing and unrestricted by judgments and criticism, while at the same time is held to certain standards so that it functions beautifully. Take time to consider what it really means to be in good shape. It might surprise you to learn what that really means. Be honest, but don’t be so hard on yourself. Go with the flow.

Sending you love,
