Daily Affirmations: We Are All Connected

lowellsdories4

Today, I am re-minded that my well-being is connected to the well-being of others. In that, we are all connected, like three dories tied together on one river mooring, we are all dependent upon one another. I seek this day and everyday, to connect with each person I meet with a heart full of compassion and a mind full of empathy.

Daily Affirmations: Nature Holds So Many Blessings

Eastern Kingbird

Nature holds so many blessings. I re-mind myself this day, that the bird I glanced at sitting in the grasses is a gift that puts me in the moment, interrupting my monkey mind just long enough for an “ah” moment. Moments like these still the mind and make me pause, bringing about contentment and happiness. I vow today and everyday, to take one extra moment when I am graced with such a chanced event, and voice my gratitude.

Daily Affirmations: My Sense of History

Sometimes we overlook the things we have done in our lives as we wish we could do more things, or go somewhere we like to travel to, or have opportunities others have. In these moments we can re-mind ourselves of this:

“I value my sense of history. I am alert to the many colorful and enjoyable episodes in my own life’s unfolding. Rather than bemoan a lack of color or adventure in my life, I consciously choose to notice and appreciate the many small adventures and victories which each of my days entertains. I focus on the precise and measurable evidence of the good that comes to me as I am alert to life’s many blessings. I notice, remark, and remember the kind word, the well-told joke, the flashing beauty of a small finch lighting on a roadside shrub. Alert to the beauty and detail around me, I revel ever more fully in the many graces life has to offer me.” – Julia Cameron: Blessings: Prayers and Declarations for a Heartful Life

Be In The Moment

This quote from Pema Chodron is the perfect reminder of the importance of being in the moment…

To be in the moment takes practice and it involves freeing the mind from concerns and worries that bog us down and prevent us from fully appreciating the moment we are in.

When we are in the moment, we can learn many great lessons as Pema Chodron alludes.

Today I affirm the words of His Holiness, The Dalai Lama, “The basic sources of happiness are a good heart, compassion and love.” As I go through my day, I re-mind myself to greet each person I meet with joy in my heart and hold them each in the highest esteem.
