Be still in the face of tension and turmoil. Breathe and wait for submission of anxiety and turmoil within before taking action without. Action taken amidst reaction may lead to dysfunction, while taking a moment of calm may be the one moment that allows for a shift from pure emotion, allowing for a more heart-centered reason to emerge. Let tensions subside and let truth from within emerge. Truth from within is not alway a popular response, but in the long run nothing else beats it.

Sending you love,

Tap into a new attitude, a new way to walk through life, a new set of eyes. Take advantage of each new day to be new yourself. In some way make a change, big or little. Break a habit, change a behavior, strike out in a new direction. Start something that you have longed to do. Try a different approach to something. Allow the creative in you to awaken each day with you and bring play into your life, play that is nurturing and sustaining, that is enlightening and lightening. Take the opportunity that a new day brings to make a breakthrough to something new.

Sending you love,

Life can sometimes seem like the ocean on a rough day, full of swells and treacherous decisions and then the next day it’s calm and flat as a still lake. Steadiness is being able to withstand the changes. Steadiness comes with practice, with setting intentions that are doable and promote a forward pattern of growth. Steadiness comes with maturity too, in learning the ways of the world, but also the ways of the self, setting a plan and sticking too it, reminding the self often of dreams to come. A simple dream of steadiness is a wonderful dream in itself.

Sending you love,

Balance remains the most important key to good health on all levels of being, mental, physical, emotional and spiritual. Without balance the whole self is not fully present or in charge to make good decisions, or able to sustain life in an evolving manner. Taking responsibility for the self, as a full-fledged adult is perhaps the most important aspect of maintaining balance. Without balance one becomes a victim. But to override that is simply a matter of deciding that it’s your life, after all, and that you are in change of every aspect of it, within and without. When you let things slide there is no one to blame except yourself and your own decision to do so. Balance, at its best, means juggling everything that comes to you, keeping yourself aloft so that each day begins with the joyous anticipation of a job to be done well and ends with the joyous knowledge that indeed it was!

Strive for balance at all times. That means, keeping a certain state of calmness, within and without, that permeates your being so that all levels of self are aligned, on the same page so to speak. To be on the same page means that your mind’s chatter is reduced, your physical stress is reduced, your central nervous system is calm and your spirit is satisfied. Such balance allows for something else to come through, the creative. With the creative on board just about anything can happen. Notice the state of your physical self first and do the right thing to get it into a calm and relaxed state. From there everything else will fall into place and a hint of the creative will follow soon after.
