Abide in calmness as often as possible. Take time each day to not only seek solitude but to sit in calmness, with mind quiet, body still, heart at peace. Maybe just standing still in nature for a few minutes will give you the boost of energy and certainty that you need. Maybe just lifting your eyes to the sky at midday or midnight will bring you the peace and quiet you crave. Maybe just listening to your favorite music, or to something new that brings you joy and peace, will bring you to a place of calm certainty within yourself that will show you the next step to take on your journey of change. All days are equal in their opportunistic quality. Have you taken the opportunity to fully engage what is really being offered?

Sending you love,

Solitude is an inner experience of contentment. Seek solitude as an escape from the trials and tribulations of the worldwide difficulties. Seek solitude in nature, in meditation, in setting your future goals, in contemplating your life and the direction you wish it to proceed in from this day forth. Simple steps of self-care, such as these mentioned above may be all you need to start taking better care of yourself, or care of yourself in a new way, a way that is more meaningful and spiritual, and more mentally and physically healthy.

Sending you love,

Calmness comes in detachment. Seek solace by detaching from the antics playing out in the world around you, from the dramas, wars, and conflicts. In inner solitude, based upon inner contentment, find the calmness you seek, far away from the disturbances around you, far from the chaos of daily life. In nature find solace in a single cloud drifting in the sky, in a tiny bird’s flight, in the sound of water falling, in the songs of crickets. Look outside of you, in nature, for the calmness you seek within, and notice how nature fills the void with beauty and intent, and then take that beauty and intent within you where it may grow upon you and become your own. In solitude find solace, and be grateful for a few moments of calmness. Let it be enough.

Sending you love,

The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Find solace in knowing that you do have a primary purpose. Perhaps it is to become yourself more fully, to become more fully independent, more fully grounded in your solitary journey within the duality of body and soul, in the physical and in the spiritual. Such a journey is profound indeed. Look each day toward deeper grounding in and alignment with this purpose. Search no longer for meaning but find it in everything you do and everywhere you turn. For that is where it exists, all around you and in every moment. Journey onward and yet realize you have already found, for that is the journeyer’s truth, coming in the stillness of a moment of solitude. What you seek has already been found, within.
