Refine your attempts to evolve and grow each day by facing what keeps you away from your goals, addressing your concerns with honesty and an attitude of absolute truthfulness. Evolution and growth may at times come in slow steps, for with you, just as with nature, there are dormant times. But even during dormant times tremendous things are happening out of sight. Those are the times of inner work and contemplation, perhaps the most important and unique strategy in human evolution, the ability to go within and contemplate the self on a deeper level. If you can change yourself on the inside by deep contemplation and study you will naturally change on the outside as well. What’s going on inside you today? That’s the question to ask, to face, and to work on within.

Sending you love,

Wipe your mind clear every morning and begin anew as if you knew nothing. Greet the world with the eyes of a newborn babe and sniff the air as if for the first time. Marvel over the sunrise. Feel rain and wind and sunshine on your skin. Revel in being alive and let the day shower you with its gifts, for there are many and many experiences to have for the first time.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Keep things simple. Why complicate life when it is unnecessary to do so? Remain simple, honest and straightforward in everything you do and say. In everything you think and contemplate, remain on the side of the positive and upwardly focused so that you remain inspired and elated by life rather than defeated by it. What you think matters, for it constructs your whole attitude about life and your attitude about life can either make you or break you. Keep things simple and on the up and up and your life will flow effortlessly. As you learn to go with the flow so will life go with the flow of you and your intent.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

It’s not that hard to calm the central nervous system. Look at a beautiful picture, and breathe deeply. Imagine a place that is special to you, and breathe deeply. Close your eyes, and breathe deeply. Sit in the light of the sun, and breathe deeply. Take a walk, and breathe deeply. Sit beside water, and breathe deeply. Gaze at the night sky, and breathe deeply. There are so many opportunities in a day to get calm, to take care of yourself for a few moments, and to align with your own spirit. Just do it, just breathe.

Sending you love,

When change comes unexpectedly the best course of action is to wholeheartedly embrace it and with a calm heart accept its place in your life. Sometimes new doors open, a new path appears, or a sudden change in direction is necessary. Sometimes survival means doing something you never imagined you could or would do.

All of these opportunities for change are also opportunities to change the self, within and without, and to do so with love, kindness and compassion will make the coming journey that much more meaningful.

Sending you love,
