Don’t get too caught up in what’s happening in the world outside of you. Note it and give it deep thought, but turn your energy inward toward getting right within the self. When you are right within the self, in good balance and health and have a positive and prosperous attitude, the rest of the world around you will get right as well. Like a stone thrown into a pond, the first ripples made on the surface of the water fan out from the center that is you and eventually the whole pond will be rippling. If the energy is balanced and positive so much the better!

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

The prospect of change can induce excitement but also fear. Fear of change is natural and yet fear also constricts and brings with it a whole host of other issues. Allow change into your life, for it is inevitable. It is necessary and it may be the only reason you grow. If you are not a natural instigator of change then change will come to you in its own unorganized way and you will have to deal with the consequences. If you plan for change, instigate change, and prepare for change, things may or may not work out as you wish but at least you will be in step with change. Allow for the possibility of change and anticipate the excitement that will accompany it. Face your fears and embrace the newness. Welcome change into your life as a great opportunity for advancement in a new direction and happily open your arms and mind to what lies ahead.

Sending you love,

Reluctance to make a move allows fear to take over. Fear restricts, holds back and makes reluctance look easy. For once fear takes over other problems arise, worry and anxiety, and eventually depression sets in. Negative emotions lead to a negative outlook on life and negative outcomes ensue. By looking at the original reluctance, and finding out why it’s there and what’s behind it, a whole avalanche of problems can be averted. Far better to face the initial reluctance, to move beyond it so that life may proceed in a more positive direction. Why not take a chance on being open to something new? It’s possibly just what you need!

Resentment is a heavy weight to carry, a burden best left by the wayside. If everything is part of the bigger picture of life, then resentment has no place except as a part of that picture, neatly fitting in to teach something. Take the lesson and learn its significance and then move on to the next lesson. A refusal to learn and grow allows things such as resentment to grow and fester in place of the learning and thus it is merely a blockage, and not a helpful one at that. What lesson does resentment teach? How to let go, for one. How to detach from a situation without any strings attached, and perhaps it also teaches the beginnings of love and compassion. For the ultimate goal is to embrace love and compassion for all, and to truly do that all blockages must be freed, including resentment.

Keep your energy contained for your inner use, to broaden and deepen your inner work. Get to know yourself more fully each day so that your defenses may be dismantled, your wounds healed and your spirit freed. Without defenses, blockages and obstacles getting in your way you will be freer to accept the bounty offered, able to manifest what you desire and live a more fulfilling, happy and healthy life. Do the good work of knowing and loving yourself so that you may do the good work of more fully knowing and loving others.

Sending you love,
