116. Creating time for the Sacred The quality of our life is in the quality of the moments. This season of Advent helps us prepare for Christmas, the birth of Jesus and the rebirth of that light and love awakened in us. Creating time to awaken and strengthen your spirit helps you bring forth the divine attributes that are within you strengthening you. These attributes are Faith, Hope, Peace, Love, and Joy. Within all of us, we just have to tap in and step forth. Being in the sacred, the stillness, whatever it is for you that helps you feel full and whole, make time for it. So you can be your whole, loving self as you were created. If you bring everything into everything we enjoy nothing. Be responsible for the energy you bring. What is Sacred for you? Sacred can be a treasure, a warmth, a mystery, a light, and a profound refuge, and awareness to the presence of spirit. Sacred is a special word. What in your life is sacred? What is sacred that I have lost sight of? It's up to you to raise your consciousness and be your best so you bring forth the dreams you have in your heart. "Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the ​passion to reach for the stars to change the world."   - Harriet Tubman

Thinking from Abundance means thinking—believing—that wealth, success, and prosperity are possible for you. As we change our thoughts, we change our energy, and we bring forth more of what we desire. It starts with being aware of what we are thinking about - and accepting. It starts with awareness and acceptance. Emotions are energy in motion. We have to let that energy move through us, not hold on, which will become density, heaviness that comes forth as negative energy. We bring about what we think about. It's up to us to return to the wholeness, abundance that is always within if we want to attract more prosperity and abundance back in. Listen to this meditation to bring forth more of what you desire by changing the way you think about what you have right now. As you do, you will grow in appreciation, gratitude, and attract more of what you desire and deserve! Thanks for listening - please consider sharing, subscribing and supporting.

We are all responsible for the energy we bring to our relationships, our families, work, and communities. Sometimes we need a reset - especially if we are in a negative, low energy space. It's easy to blame how we are showing up on external conditions, people around us, our experiences. This is true, there are parts of life that are out of our control and bring discomfort and sadness. Listen to Ep. 102 Growing through Life for how to shift your perspective toward a growth mindset. We are all responsible for how we respond, how we show up. Our words matter. Our actions matter. And our presence is felt. We can all take a moment, a pause at any time, if we are not showing up in alignment to our higher, heart self. Through the practice of meditation, we raise our self-awareness. With awareness, we can notice thoughts we think, feelings we feel, actions we are take. This awareness helps us pause and make a shift if we are out of alignment. The more you practice presence, it becomes easier if you are stuck in a story or pattern that is against you and others. This is no way to be. Listen to this meditation to reset and return to where your power lies - from your heart self, by being present. Listen in to learn how to shift your energy, show up as your higher self, and bring more of what you desire into your life so you feel more joy, ease, and love! Thanks for listening!

"Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness" says Eckhart Tolle. Knowing and living from this truth helps you let go of trying to resist or control. The more we see life's experiences as opportunities for growth, awakening, and evolving, the more ease we feel. The more we can simply be and allow and be present for moments of life and people we share life with. Our minds can get caught in thought patterns around judging, trying, seeking, comparing, ruminating, regretting, labeling, judging, or anything else which takes us away from the present moment. You are right where you need to be. Experiences are coming up to help you grow and lean in to who you are made to be, to serve, to love, and evolve. You will experience greater well-being, prosperity, and meaning day by day, moment by moment as you live from this truth and simply be. Thanks for listening!
