Remember that you’ve done this all before, this life. You already know the outcome though it may not be in your conscious memory. At some point you will remember why and how to resolve all the issues that currently plague you. In the meantime, you do know that you have the strength to persevere, looking always for meaning and the next right step as you journey through life. Don’t stop seeking answers. They will come, slowly at first and then more clearly, as you travel your path with heart.

Sending you love,

Track your energy, watching for signs that you are using it properly and most beneficently. When your energy perceives a positive benefit it will likely let you know in some way, such as a heart pounding affirmation or a happy sense of destiny or contentment. When your energy perceives that something is negative and will have unhealthy results, it will give you clear signs to steer clear. The thing is, will you notice, pay attention and follow the advice? Will you take the path that has meaning and heart? Show up in your own life more fully and pay attention. Those are two aspects in your favor as you learn to track your own energy responses to situations in life and make progress in the good. Show up. Pay attention.

Sending you love,

In some areas of life incremental change works just fine to bring good results. In other areas it’s much better for change to be abrupt and immediate. If danger is imminent, or disaster of some sort is the clear result of a behavior, then clearly the best course of action is to turn and walk in a new direction. Look to nature for examples of both incremental and immediate change. The slow growth of a seed as it emerges from the earth produces lovely flowers or fruit, while dark rain clouds cannot hold back from abruptly spilling the heavy rain they hold. But the human heart and mind have one thing that nature lacks and that is the power to think and act intuitively and with precision. Don’t forget that, and don’t forget to use this power to propel your life in a new direction of your own choosing when the time is right.

It is often said that the key to perfect health is moderation in everything. Life however does not practice moderation. It is full of ups and downs, high points and low points and many extremes. The human mind however can do anything. A thought can shift and change even a most dire situation into one of calmness. It was a human thought that decided that moderation was key to human health and wellbeing. The ability to think and reason is purely human and part of the evolution of the species. Seek moderation in everything and see how it effects you. That’s the other half of thought—experience. It is the human experience that teaches as much as thought does.

What have you learned about yourself? Every day is an opportunity to learn something new about the self and to advance a little more along your path to wholeness. And what is wholeness? It is the completion of the journey you set out upon when you decided to enter into life as the person you are. Your decision included many challenges. To complete your life and attain your wholeness is to meet those many challenges and advance yourself on the journey of your greater Soul self, the self that decided to embark upon life and take up those challenges. What challenges do you have before you today? Begin there. Simply be open to accepting what comes. It‘s always a good day to be challenged!
