Soulbyte for Tuesday January 1, 2019

In this new time of learning and growth, learn to sit quietly, learn to breathe deeply, learn to walk slowly, learn to wait patiently. Learn to open your heart, open your mind, and open your spirit, so that you may be available to guidance from all around you, in the world and beyond the world. Make these inner practices your spiritual practices. Learn also to respect fully, share equally, consider others, even as you turn more inward and get yourself in order. Let this adjustment, this New Year, manmade marker that it is, be the catalyst you have longed for. Take care of yourself in a new way and let this New Year be the one, the marker granting you permission to finally just be you again, the real you, inside and out, matured and honed in a new compassionate way. And know that all other beings seek only the same, to just be at peace, within and without. Keep it simple.

In times of great despair turn inward, knowing that although you cannot get what is happening outside of you right you can always get what is happening inside of you right. For when all is right within, all is naturally right with the world too. When there is love within, there will be love coming from within. When there is joy within, there will be joy flowing from within. When there is calmness within, calmness radiates without. As within, so without.

Remain quiet, contained, and centered within the self as the year winds down, as this phase concludes. As the old dies away and the new prepares for birth, consider your own process of ending and beginning. What within you is ending? What within you seeks life? What is it time to let go of? And what is it time to bring forth into life? Sit quietly and remember that the sun sets and rises again, that the moon has its phases, just as you do. Get quiet within. Stay connected to the truth of changing nature within and without and listen to your wise self who knows you better than anyone. With eagerness and anticipation focus on new life to come. Remain positive. Even in the darkest times the potential for light and the possibility of change are just around the darkest corner. Meditate on that. Meditate on the light.

Soulbyte for Wednesday December 19, 2018

Life is not a competition; it’s a journey. Life is not a race; it’s a walk along a special path. If you rush along you’ll miss some important things. If you slow down you’ll notice more, take in more, experience more. So slow down to the beat of your heart at peace, to the calm rhythm of your own slow and steady breathing. You can always do better, not against anyone else, but just as a human being on a journey beside other human beings on their own journeys.

Look inward now and slow down, even as you look outward, thinking you have to speed up, that you are missing something out there. You are not. The only thing you are missing is your quiet spirit within and what it is really saying to you, your connection to all it knows and wishes for you. Seek that, for that alone will bring you fulfillment. And the funny thing is, your spirit might indeed instruct you to go find something outside of you, something important you never imagined. It might be that doing better means getting outside of yourself and that nothing could be better than that at this time in your life. But let such directives come from within, from your own spirit, so that they will be right. Slow down and learn to listen to the quiet voice of spirit within.

Soulbyte for Monday December 17, 2018

Moderation brings stability, stability brings peace. When all seems hopeless and impossible, turn inward and get into a new alignment that will set you upon a new path to moderation in all things. Find thus balance and calmness, knowing that all will be well when you are in charge, when you have mastered that which challenges and imposes upon you, that which circumnavigates the real issues and leaves you feeling dizzy and hopeless, spinning out of control while you watch life’s possibilities passing you by. Turn inward and grab ahold of yourself in a new way and with gentle modulation tell it like it is—be honest—and then decide a new plan of moderation in all things. Before you know it inner moderation will lead to a new inner stability and that new inner stability will lead to inner peace. Begin now and achieve stable peace now too.
