Life is like a reflection… The deeper we go, the further we seek, we find answers to the questions. As above… so below. Never stop seeking the answers. Never stop searching for the clues. Always be curious and remain skeptical of things that make you doubtful. There’s always a message if you have eyes to see, ears to listen and a voice to speak your mind.
I’ve been on a trajectory for a few weeks now to be more productive and get back on track, after a long period of introspection. Life knocked me off course. I lost my way and settled in to just be, as I worked through the things in life that knocked me off course. It’s been really good to be productive again. Good for my heart and soul, but some days I still struggle with keeping on track. I think we all feel that some days, no matter what is going on in our lives.
Today, I re-mind myself that it’s okay to not be productive if that is what I feel in the moment. But, I also re-mind myself that if I push through the desire to not be productive and find that space where I can be productive, I will blossom and shine a little more today and every day. And so it is, I set my intent to blossom and shine. Intent makes manifest. Namaste…
I love the feeling of floating in life. You know that feeling, when everything in life is working the way you want it to and you are floating along, flowing on course. In truth, we’re always floating in life, we’re a stick floating downstream on the river of life. Whether life is good or life is not good, we’re still floating. But it’s our mindset that is different. Sometimes we can change that mindset but other times it is best to work through whatever it is that is weighing us down. Maybe we are not a buoyant as we’d like to because we’re going through a lot of heavy stuff in our lives – loss, pain, trauma, grief, financial struggle, drama with others – you name it, these are the things we need to work through as we float downriver.
Who am I and why am I here? Let me fill you in on what I am up to… I’ve been working on my website for a couple of months now. It had fallen by the wayside while I was in school for six and half years. A month ago, I had written here that I was working on “getting back on track with my writing.” I have to say, it feels good to be back at it. One of the focuses I have had in the past two weeks now is to get back on track with writing Daily Affirmations.
I’ve been sharing other writers affirmations and then writing my own Daily Affirmations online now for over 20 years. I initially started sharing affirmations online daily on my first business website, the now defunct AromatherapyGoddess.com. The business was a new age aromatherapy and bath & body business. I made my own products and built my website and taught myself to self-market my products online reading everything I could about how to market products online. One of the common themes was that the more content you had online the more traffic you would receive and the longer you would keep someone on your website. That still holds today.
I woke this morning and sat up in bed and I smiled. I felt ready to take on the day and make it be an awesome day, because I woke with love in my heart. It’s been a while since I woke feeling that life is good because my life has been on a rather uneven keel for quite some time. But things have been shift. The keel is stabilizing and so am I. It’s taken a lot of inner work to get here. But recognizing the love I have in my life has brought me back to center.
Today, I affirm that I have love in my heart and love in my life. I am happy. I am abundant. I re-mind myself that love is all there is. And so it is that I set forth on this day and every day to share my love with all. And so it is… Intent makes manifest.
Life can often make us feel overwhelmed. In today’s world, we’re worried not just about our own problems but also the troubles of the world. It’s tough navigating everything and feeling like we’re on top of it all every day. Sometimes, we need to sit back and take a deep breath and exhale. And then take another one and exhale. Breath in and release. It feels so good to breath out our troubles and release them to the Universe.
Today I affirm that I can not solve all of my problems or the problems of the world in this moment. I take a deep breath and exhale and repeat. I imagine the waves at the beach, coming in slowly and then drawing back and I allow myself to simply be in the moment. I re-mind myself, that there is only now, in this moment and I am powerless and at peace right now. And so it is, intent makes manifest.
