Center yourself in knowing that you have within you all that you need to live a life that is fulfilling, meaningful, and stable. You might not figure everything out at once but the capacity does lie within you. Learn from your own life, and from the lives of those around you, what you want to do and how you want to spend your time. Look to nature to guide you as well, to its unfolding seasons, to the coming and going of night and day, to the play of light and shadow. You may not get everything right at first, but give it your best effort and before long you will find your way to what is right for you.

Sending you love,

Monitor your energy. What are you doing to compromise it? Tend to it as you would a fire, feeding it and keeping it alive, bright and clear, like a flame full of warmth and light. Your energy is your life force and it needs taking care of, just as your body does. And, indeed, in much the same way as the body. So keep it in good condition with both rest and activity, spiritually, mentally, physically and emotionally. Let it both play and reflect, enjoy life to the fullest but also take time to retreat and recharge. You can’t go wrong in life if you take care of your whole self!

Sending you love,

Beware the tendency to forget what is best for you. Pay attention to what your mind knows, what your body tells you and what your spirit inspires. Body, mind and spirit in alignment work as one, not as three separate entities with their own agendas but as one unit with one agenda. That unified agenda is your wholeness, your unified self that knows, acts and inspires you to maintain balance and equilibrium.

A unified self is both a satisfied self and an eager self as well, a self that is happy and contented yet is open to more of life. Remember this and seek the balance of unity and the inspiration of more life to live.

Watch your energy so that you don’t overdo. Overdoing is responsible for exhaustion, sickness, dis-ease and many other maladies of both body and spirit. To overdo is to overgive of time and energy to things of the world, to people, to duties, to habits, and to things outside of the self so that the self is largely ignored. Tune into the self more often to find out what is the right amount of energy to give to any one person or thing, to any need or desire, to any duty or ritual.

Take care of the self and gain balance in doing so. It’s the only way to maintain good health, good habits, and good mind, body, spirit equanimity.

Even the best laid plans, with everything in place and set, may not run according to schedule. Such is life, easily planned but much harder to control. Learn to be flexible, to go with the flow, while at the same time be prepared and fully intent for a smooth process. To be open to what comes along, while at the same time to plan for the best, is to be in good balance with what is and with what is desired. To want is natural, but not all that is wanted is necessary. Sometimes something more important is needed. So, with an open and steady heart, prepare to go with the flow!
