Abide at the Center of Your Being

Abide at the Center of Your Being

“There is no need to run outside
For better seeing.
Nor to peer from a window.
Rather abide
At the center of your being;
For the more you leave it, the less you learn.”
 –Tao Te Ching, Lao-Tzu

There’s a stillness inside that knows all.  Yet too often we persist in looking to the opinions of others for guidance or try to unobtrusively fit into the world around us.

When you sit in silence and observe, the guidance is given, the answers appear.  There’s nothing that exists except you.  Look within for your answers. 

Live at the center of your being.

Live in the Present

“Live with nature in the present, above time.”  -Emerson

Nature has no timetable.  It lives in a beautiful process of unfolding. There is no specific time for a leaf to drop or a bud to open. It’s ready when it’s ready. 

What if you lived your life that way? Above time.  What if you let life unfold? If you simply took things as they came?  If you sat in the center of your being and just watched?

What would that feel like?  What would that look like?

Take some time today to be above time!

Call on Your Sacred Space Within

Call on Your Sacred Space Within

“Your sacred space is where you can find yourself again and again.”  Joseph Campbell

Take time to be still. Take time to listen.  The answers are there.  Within you is the knowing, the clarity, the calling.  When you hear the voice within, you must listen.  And heed.  And consider.  

As you move along your path, check in with the sacred space within. Ask for options and inspiration.  

Explore your inner self.  The answers lie there.

Are You a Ripple of Hope?

Are You a Ripple of Hope?

“Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.” – Robert F. Kennedy

It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by all the things in our world that need to be better.  What can one person do? 

Change your own thinking.  Focus on the potential, the positive, new ways to make things better.  Take your own personal steps toward making that happen.

Be more inclusive.  Be more compassionate. Be willing to change yourself.  See our world as light, all of us, each of us. One light. 

Feel yourself as part of a fluid, interconnected world.  Each strand is connected to the other.  So a pull here affects a strand there.  What are you doing with your strand? How is it affecting the whole?

Think wholeness. There is only one of us. One energy.  See and feel and hear the light in everyone and everything. As more and more people experience our world as one light energy, the shift in consciousness will occur. 

Be a ripple.  Send out positive thoughts and intentions.

Change Your Thinking

Change Your Thinking

“We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used
when we created them.”-  Albert Einstein, scientist

We resist change.  There’s too much unknown about trying things a new way.  But if we have a problem – no, when we have a problem – we need to look at what we did, what we said, what we thought. Because that’s what brought us to this exact place.  Unless we want to keep going in the same direction and attracting the same results, we have to change. 

What beliefs are you holding that brought you to this particular place in your life? I’m not good enough?  It can never happen? I’m afraid to try? Shift those limiting beliefs to positive affirmations and watch the doors swing open.
