Forgive Yourself for Being Yourself

When you are with another, you must balance self-care with care for the other.  It is easy to slip into the trap of feeling guilty for pursuing your own interests when another is around.  But if you are in a healthy relationship – not a codependent one – this should not be an issue.  You…

Don’t Worry, You’ll Feel It

Don’t worry, you’ll feel it when it’s right. When it’s right for you do anything, your intuition will tell you. For example, I often feel guilty if I do not do the exercise routine I planned for the day. But my body knows better than I do. It knows when it’s best for me to…

Our Cup Cannot Be Filled if We Do Not First Empty It

This is what meditation is all about.  Emptying your mind of its thoughts so you can be clear to receive.  So much of the time, however, we are taught just the opposite.  Our civilization values learning, knowledge, and progress with new ideas, so we are always striving to make ourselves better.  Yet, in the process…

Seek Joy First

At the beginning of each new day, what do you do? Do you seek joy first? Do you do something that raises your vibration? I do. If meditating doesn’t sound good, I don’t do it. If exercising doesn’t sound good, I don’t do it. If sleeping in and taking a sauna sounds good, I do…

Thank You, but No Thank You

I’ve often thought about the Law of Attraction and wondered whether what I was manifesting was a result of God’s plan or just something I created through the Law of Attraction. Today, I believe that the two are one. I believe that if we have attracted something, it is because of the Law of Attraction…
