Have you experienced the past few months as intense, chaotic, and full of uncertainty?
Yes?
You’re not alone.
Some days feel like a tough slog. Like we’re moving through dense resistance. Which is all the more reason to embrace your spiritual practice and deepen into it.
Many seers have spoken of this time we are in as an amplification, when everything is speeding up and gaining power. This is exactly why you have to choose your own sanity, clarity and peace.
Not only because the chaos is ever growing, but because the benefit of you doing your inner work is amplified during this time. In other words, you can use this time to fast track your liberation.
Here are 3 Ways:
1. Be the Eye
Maybe it’s from living in Florida for 16 years, but the imagery I often see is that of a hurricane. The chaos of the world is swirling around and your job is to stand in the eye. The eye is the place of silence, stillness. In Buddhist terms, perhaps this is the place of the silent witness. The one that is untouched by ether, air, fire, or water.
Take a deep breath in. And another. Allow yourself to feel the winds die down around you as you return to silence. To the place where you are in the world but not of the world. To the place of calmness, of timelessness.
2. Remember Your Truth
When we take time to meditate, do yoga or intentional exercise, chant, pray or participate in ritual, we are inviting ourselves to return to the truth of who we are.
And what is that? Peace, Love, Kindness, Generosity, Flow.
More than ever, we are being asked to connect into the light within.
Be intentional right now – create or deepen into a practice where you can connect to this truth every single day.
It will make a world of difference for you and everyone else.
3. Anchor Into What Is Real & Seek Support
More than ever, the world needs your light, your love, peace and grounded-ness. Why? Because in duality, light and dark are always balanced.
It may be easy to feel the darkness, but that isn’t only what’s happening. The light is concentrating, too.
How can you show up and be even more light filled, loving, and present?
What support do you need to do that?
Of course, a personal practice is vital as is community.
What group is calling to you?
How can you feel more genuinely supported by others right now?
When I was a girl, I often heard dreadful stories from my parents and others about the hardships experienced during the depression. Then one day, my nana told me she missed those days. Surprised by her lament, I asked her why and she said, “because everyone helped each other.”
I hear her words echo in my head ever more loudly these days. For it seems that more than ever we need one another. So ask, who can I connect to that will help me feel sustained and supported?
Near or far we can do this for each other. And please know I am only an email away.
Join me in connecting to your light that we may shine brightly today and everyday.
