Anchor more solidly within the self on a daily basis through quiet meditation, walking in nature, listening to calming music, doing things that both turn you inward and bring peace of mind and body, whatever that might mean for you. By anchoring in this way, your thoughts about the world around you will quiet down too, the outer rhetoric will lessen and the harsh reality of truth will be less invasive. But the most important aspect of quiet mind is the ability to intuit and perceive life in a new and different way. As you anchor in quiet mind, distance and perspective change, point of view shifts, and a new paradigm is revealed. In this new paradigm new awareness exists and the bigger picture emerges. Give it a try. Seek quiet mind in the best way possible for you at this time in your life, and see what happens.

Sending you love,

Training of the mind is just as important as training of the body. To hone the mind so that calmness is easily achieved will bring not only the mind into calmness but also the body and the emotions, and it will allow the spirit within you to be more easily heard. Your spirit yearns to speak with you, to guide you and show you the way. The best way to connect is to get the thinking mind, the busy mind, out of the way. Learn simple meditation tricks to relax the body and the thinking mind so that calmness ensues, even for just a few minutes at a time. It will do you wonders and your spirit will rejoice.

Continually clear your emotional panel so that there is room within you to receive, so that resentments do not crowd your reception room, and so that your heart remains open and willing to engage in life. Old resentments fester and pollute, wreaking havoc, creating waste, discomfort and disease. Meditate upon what holds you back from your goals and find the emotions that need examination and clearing. In care of the self in this manner there is room for new growth and new life.

Sending you love,

Take an occasional respite from all of life’s busyness. Take a walk in nature. Look at the sky, day or night. Close your eyes and listen to some soft music. Just sit quietly and breathe. There is always so much to do, and that will not change, but you can control not doing something; not worrying, not thinking, not overdoing. You have that power. Use it first to just slow down and not do anything, for 5 minutes. Take a short respite from life.

Sending you love,

Let yourself be still more often, quiet of heart and mind, unburdened of the vicissitudes of life in human form. Step back and feel the flow of life energy in you without attachment to the problems of the world. Know yourself in this form, as energy visiting Earth for a time, seeking to do something no one else has yet done, seeking to be you in your own unique way. Let yourself bask for a few moments in this energy being self who moves and sees, who knows and experiences as no human body can. Let yourself go for a moment. And then return quietly and comfortably back into your day.

Sending you love,
