We speak of small gifts and everyday charms in order to offer methods of keeping calm and focused and to understand your ability to function at a heart-centered level no matter what is happening in the world around you. When you remain heart-centered and calm in your inner and your outer world you give those around you the best possible example of how to navigate a difficult period of life.
Sending you love,

Perhaps the best antidote to the worst of times is to pull inward, to go into the quiet of self in some way that suits you. Perhaps you like to pray, to sit in meditation, or to dream of something for the future that invigorates or inspires you. Perhaps you like to write or draw or dance or tell jokes. Perhaps you enjoy the company of innocent children and all that they offer. Find both solace and purpose in the small gifts of everyday life that calm you and center you. Turn inward to find your source of inner wisdom and give of your knowledge when it is asked for and withhold it when it is not. Hold the place between the past and the future in calm balance within you and let it become your mode of operation as you weather through these difficult times.

Give thanks for the everyday gifts you are given, for the first glimpse of the rising sun, for the song of the birds, for the baby’s cry, for the earth beneath your feet and for the scent of autumn leaves in the air. Staying grounded in nature is one of the best healing medicines there is. Just walking barefoot in the grass or crunching over some fallen leaves will bring you back to your senses, literally and figuratively. Letting the sun fall upon your shoulders, feeling its warmth is a sure way to reconnect with the loving hand of Mother Nature and all her bounty. No matter where you live, if you look up at any time of day or night you can connect with nature in the heavens above, no matter what lies at your feet. Give thanks for the opportunity to witness and experience the glories of the natural world all around you.
Sending you love,

Find peace in the small everyday things that make up life. Find beauty in the tiniest beam of sunlight, in the smell of a rose, in the clouds in the sky, in the taste of something special. Let the little things guide you to appreciate how life’s little miracles offer enough on any given day. Open your eyes, your senses, your mind to the little offerings that you may be missing and let your heart rest in peace, if only for a moment at a time.
Sending you love,

Maintain sacred inner space for loving kindness to grow, for fear to abate, for worry to die out, for that which causes distress and concern to find solace and peace. In inner solitude find the way to touch the Great Mystery, the Oneness that you are, for though you may perceive yourself as a bundle of bones and flesh you are so much more than that, and really so much less as well. You are All That Is and you are Nothing At All as well, so much and so little, part of it all and yet one tiny speck of light and love, so small and yet so capable. Do not forget the power of this smallness and this greatness that you are, for it is what you ultimately seek, unity within the loving aspect of self, the great and the small within. Strive for it now while chaos reigns and experience its bliss while in human form, for the good of the self and good of all. It is all you need now, to be loving within and loving without. Strive for that.
Sending you all love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne
