Soulbyte for Monday January 5, 2026

As you continue the practice of turning away from the past and looking forward to the future, the rest of your body will begin to feel differently too. Before too long you will begin to notice that your head is quieter and your heart gets stirred more often. Your heart is calmer and your central nervous system has a different vibration, tuned down from anxiety about life and turned up to attunement with life. Your mind is quieter and you begin to notice when you forget to give thanks and gratitude on a daily basis. Your mind directs you away from the old negative voices and introduces you to those new voices of heartcenteredness and peaceful contentment. Slowly but surely, you notice that changes are happening inside you. And as you do, things outside of you will change as well.

All our love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

When the outside world is in turmoil seek to keep it from reverberating too strongly within you. Acknowledge it, accept it for the time being, but envision a changed world ahead. It is not too farfetched to say that if enough people collect their thoughts and intentions upon change, especially for the greater good of all, that it will have an impact. You are all interconnected energy sources. You have the power within you to use that energy to produce the world you wish to inhabit. This is your super power. Don’t be afraid to use it.

All our love,

New Year, New Beginnings

As 2025 comes to an end and the New Year begins, we would like to thank everyone who has traveled with us, those who are new to our work and those who have followed our work for a long time. We are full of gratitude for the journey we have all taken together.

Some of you have accompanied us from the very beginning, when we first created and launched our website, and others have found your way to us through word of mouth or happenstance. Riverwalker Press has been around now  for twenty years! Wow!

It is always our pleasure to share what we learn about life, to make some small but hopefully meaningful contributions as we figure out the worlds we inhabit, our mysterious inner world and our equally mysterious outer world as well.

As we step into 2026, we bring you a new offering. Our Soulbytes will be published every day of the week, including Saturdays and Sundays, so there will be no interruptions in guidance from the Universe. The Universe is always ready to communicate. So are we!

As we all pull back into the quietude of the season, we wish everyone a calm and peaceful holiday season, ringed round with joy and permeated with love. May the New Year bring the gift of good fortune and good will to everyone, at home and around the world, in all worlds.

Thank you, and all our love,
Jan and Chuck

A new week always offers a chance to do things differently. Make a pledge to listen to your inner spirit more often this week. Make a pledge to change one thing every day this week. Make a pledge to finally begin that one thing you have longed to start. Make a pledge to pay attention to what matters most to you as each day begins. Make a pledge to change what needs change the most.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

A new week, a new day, a new opportunity. Find the sacred in this day, within your heart, the one thing that has meaning for you right now, and give it space to expand. Give it room to experience growth. Move something out of the way so it can have a little more room in your life today. Perhaps you just need to move an old thought out of your head and let something from your heart replace it. Perhaps an old habit that no longer serves you needs to be left behind and a new and more beneficial activity needs to be instituted instead. Perhaps you have longed to start something that has meaning for you and you decide that this is the perfect day to give it a chance. Life is meant to be lived to the fullest. Give it a chance by doing something you have longed to do that is right and beneficial. Make it the first step on your journey of real change.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne
