Equinox=Balance

Happy Fall! Today, as the Sun moves into Libra, we celebrate the Equinox-a magical, mystical day, when we experience equal hours of day and night, of light and darkness. This Fall Equinox is a time to restore balance back into your life. Just as the Equinox is balancing heaven and earth, masculine and feminine, dark and light, you can use this energy to help you to learn how to balance the energies within yourself. Today, focus on bringing balance to every area of your life. First begin by looking at your relationships. This is the perfect time to focus on reclaiming your energy in any of the relationships that you have been giving too much or to focus on having fun if you have been working too much. Today, make time to tune into what balance means to you, how you can restore balance into your life and to take ownership of the direction of the rest of this year and the rest of your life.

Just for today, I balance my masculine and feminine sides. My life is joyously balanced between work and play. My mind and body are in perfect balance. I am a harmonious being. Life supports me in every possible way and everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.

This Present Moment

"The present moment is the only moment available to us and it is the door to all other moments." And, yet most of us spent most of our time multi-tasking between remaining stuck in our past or worried/scared about our future. The result of all that multi-tasking is that we miss out on all the really good stuff and perhaps the only "real" things that are right in front of us in this present moment. Today, consciously remain in the present moment. If you find yourself rushing through the present, focusing on the future, and not enjoying what is happening today, stop yourself and then, fully immerse yourself in what you’re doing instead of multitasking. Today, consciously become aware that these are the moments that matter; these are the moments that will soon be the past. You are not promised tomorrow, but you are promised right NOW. Today, Live in it. Breathe it. Take in as much of this moment as you can. It is where you will find everything that you have been looking for and in truth is all that you will ever have.

Just for today, I live in this present moment and easily release past pain. Yesterday is in the past. I turn my total attention to this present moment. I know that my point of power is always in this present moment. I am a powerful person because I choose to live in this present moment. Life supports me in every possible way and all is truly well in my world, in this present moment. And so it is.

Keep it simple Saturday

Sometimes our monkey minds and the fear it creates can complicate our lives. Today, keep it simple. Stay present. Find things to be grateful for and forgive everyone, including yourself. Remember, when you create peace and harmony in your heart and mind, you will find it in your life. The inner creates the outer always!

Just for today, I return to the basics of life-forgiveness, courage, gratitude, love and humor. I do not fix my problems. I fix my thinking and then my problems fix themselves. I trust the power that created me to protect me and guide me at all times and under all circumstances. I am enough and in truth, I am perfect exactly as I am. Everything is always working out for my highest good. And so it is.

Express your feelings

Your feelings are meant to be expressed. However, most of us were not taught healthy ways of expressing them or perhaps you were taught that expressing your feelings make you weak and even worse, they make you too sensitive. But, in truth no matter how much you hold in your feelings, they will find unconscious ways of expressing themselves. In repressing your true emotions, you end up hurting yourself more than you would have if you simply expressed them from the get-go.Today, allow yourself to feel all your feelings and then, allow yourself to express them. Today, set your intentions to honor your own feelings, emotions, and to do so in the kindest, most loving manner possible. Allowing yourself to express what is in your heart will not only make you feel more authentic but will also help you feel closer to the people and world around you and that is exactly what you are meant to do today.

Just for today, I listen to my feelings and I am gentle with myself. I know that all my feelings are my friends. I am safe when I express my emotions. I can remain serene in any situation. I am safe in all my relationships. I give and receive lots of love. I handle my life with joy and ease. I am safe and everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.

Endings and beginnings

Today is 91919 a very special date that I am hoping that you will remember fondly in your future. For you see, in numerology the number 9 is the number of endings and the number one is the number of beginnings. You are most likely experiencing both! The past few months have been profoundly dramatic, forcing you to make some big changes. And, even if you may wish that you could see more dramatic tangible changes in your physical word, there is no denying your inner work has been profound. Today, take some time to recognize how much you really have learned and grown, even if you haven't yet sprouted any tangible growth. Remember, before a seed sprouts it grows deep roots. That is exactly what you have been doing. Today, give yourself a pat on the back for doing your work and know that you can now grow toward the light and reach for the stars.

Just for today, I recognize that every experience I have is perfect for my self growth. I am grateful for every experience that I have ever had for they have shaped me into the person I am today. And that is exactly who I am supposed to be right now. I rejoice in new growth. I leave all reservations behind. I am safe. It is only change. And, all is truly well in my world. And so it is.

Healthy boundaries

The definition of a boundary is a limit, which no one can overstep or violate, no matter who the other person is, how much you love him or her, or whether they are your boss, your friend or your family member! Your boundary is something that no one is allowed to breach. And, the past couple of months have been offering all of us lots of lessons about the importance of having healthy boundaries. Those lessons may have shown you the importance of how you use your time, who you give your time to and how you run the business of your life. Today, it is time to use those immense lessons to help you move forward in a much healthier, more focus way. Your discipline and your new boundaries have in truth made you stronger. Today, keep the faith, stay the course and you will reap the rewards of your hard work.

Just for today, I respect my boundaries and I insist others do too. I am a master at setting healthy boundaries that protect my time, energy, creativity and emotional well-being. I am now open and available to the infinite possibilities of the Universe. My life is an extraordinary adventure. I am safe and out of this situation only good will come. And so it is.

You are exactly where you need to be

For many of us right now the path forward seems unclear. You might know what you no longer want to be and yet the path ahead may not be so clear. And, even if you know where you're headed, it might feel like you may never get there. Today, let go of all your fear about your next steps and recognize that in truth you are exactly where you need to be right now, even if you are headed to somewhere better. Today, trust that you are being guided every step of the way. Recognize that simply because you know what you want for your future now that things don't always instantly happen. And, if things aren't happening fast enough for you know that you are not doing anything wrong, you just need to be more prepared for your future. Today, recognize that your progress is not linear and that you are heading toward your destiny whether you know it or not. If you have a dream in your heart, then you have the means to fulfill it. Today, set your intentions to let go of your fear and keep the faith. Recognize that dreams are built one step at a time. Do not rush because there is so much more for you to learn. Today, accept where you are right now and know that you are always in the right place, at the right time, doing the right thing.

Just for today, I recognize that I am always in the right place, doing the right thing at the right time. I trust that everything I need will come to me at the perfect time in the perfect way. I trust the power that created to protect me and guide me at all times and under all circumstances. I am safe and in truth everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is

Just for today, I recognize that I am always in the right place, doing the right thing at the right time. I trust that everything I need will come to me at the perfect time in the perfect way. I trust the power that created to protect me and guide me at all times and under all circumstances. I am safe and in truth everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is

Stop "shoulding on" yourself and others

Your destiny is far greater than you can every imagine. However, you may be limiting your own potential by remaining attached to how your life SHOULD be. The word “should” has become a fixture in our everyday dialogue. We use it in conversation with others, as a way of motivating ourselves or keeping ourselves in check. But we also use the word “should” to express a myriad of feelings, including frustration, guilt, judgment and regret. Today begin to break the habit of “should”-ing" on yourself and other people. Today, let go of your attachment to the outcome of every situation and trust that you are being guided in the right direction at all times and under all circumstances-no matter what you think “should” be happening.

Just for today, I no longer use the word should. I refuse to make myself or anyone else wrong. I no longer judge or criticize myself or others. As I release all criticism, judgemental people leave my life. I accept everyone as they are, including myself. I am an unlimited being, receiving from an unlimited source, in an unlimited way. I am safe and everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.

Peace

We all have so much potential to create, to effect change, and to love. However, that creative potential within us also means that we have the capacity for destruction and chaos. We can start wars over words, or follow our monkey minds into a frenzy of worry and distraction. We can keep on telling ourselves that when that one thing we want so badly to happen, happens, then everything will be better.We are so creative that we believe our best lie to ourselves—that there is time available for us to waste on not finding inner peace. Today, begin to break that cycle and embrace life to the fullest. Begin today by being grateful for this day, for none of us in truth are promised another day! Then, do something that makes your heart sing. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have the perfect job. It doesn’t matter if you’re having difficulty in a relationship or just feeling lost. Today, commit to doing one thing that makes you feel happy. Today stop looking for fixes outside yourself. Everything you want and need, you already have and you already are. Today, stop putting off inner peace and start reaping the bounty of your life that is right in front of you, right now.

Just for today, I know that peace begins with me. The more peaceful I am inside, the more peace I have to share with others. Divine peace and harmony surround me and dwell within me. I feel tolerance, love and compassion for all people, including myself. I am safe, divinely protected and guided. And, all is truly well in my world. And so it

You always have a choice

It is not the circumstances of our lives that matter. It is what we choose to do with them. Today recognize that you always have a choice. Your choice. You can’t choose everything that you experience in life, but what you can choose is mightier than any circumstance, outcome, or other person’s opinion. Today, awaken to the fact that where you focus your mind, how you use your words, and how you treat yourself and others are all up to you. We all have the power to choose what we absorb and what we release. And ultimately we decide what we share, what we keep, and what we let go of. How long we stay mad and how long we wait to reach for hope, when we say yes and when we say no, and how long we say only what others want to hear are all up to us. Whether we see the world with gratitude or resentment begins with a choice.There’s always something you can choose. So, today choose to look for things to feel good about. And if nothing else, choose to be as intentional as you can. Starting today, start small and remind yourself of your power to choose.Freedom is what you choose to do with what’s been done to you. Today, choose wisely!

Just for today, I know in any given situation that I always have a choice between love and fear. Today, I choose love. No one else gets to choose for me. I make my own choices. I choose to forgive and set myself free. I choose to recognize that in truth, everything is always working out for my highest good. And so it is.

Trust your inner wisdom

We have a Harvest Full Moon tonight on Friday the 13th, an event that only happens every 20 years. Full Moons always bring aspects of your consciousness to light. This Full Moon will illuminate your life purpose and can help you to breakthrough your fear, so that you can pursue that true purpose. It may seem easier to you to stay stuck in your present situation than to take a chance on yourself. However, that fear of the unknown has been holding you back. Tonight, during the light of this Full Moon, allow yourself to release your fears -fears of not being enough; of what could go wrong if you took a chance on yourself; or any other ego thought of why your idea of playing it safe and strategically smart are actually serving you. Then, let your dreams, let your heart and let your intuition be your guide. Your intuition will always lead you on a path toward joy. Today, let go of your "best" thinking and trust that your intuition, not your mind, because it is always on your side.

Just for today, I am willing to let go. I let go of all fear and doubt and life becomes simple and easy for me. I trust my intuition. I am willing to listen to that small still voice within me. All that I ever need to know at any given moment is revealed to me. My inner wisdom is always on my side. I am safe. It is only change. And everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.

Reflection

We all need at least some alone time. But in this age of FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out), it can be incredibly challenging to “sacrifice” your social time for time spent with yourself. In fact, many people who don’t take the necessary time to recharge end up feeling isolated, despite always being with others.Today, take some time for reflection, by yourself, for yourself. There won’t always be people around for you to hang out with or to distract you from what is true for you. So, today begin to learn to be happy by yourself. This does not mean you get an excuse to isolate yourself. But rather to intentionally minimize your need for external validation so that you can find time to recuperate from the many stressors you've experiencing the past couple of weeks. Today, begin to get to know yourself and what really matters to you. Your alone time will make all the difference in your world. Today, create space to focus on you, what you want and what you want to release tomorrow during the Full moon. “He who lives in harmony with himself lives in harmony with the world.”

Just for today, my alone time is just as fulfilling as the time I spend with others. It does not matter what other people say or do. What does matter is how I choose to react and what I choose to believe about myself. I am now in free to take charge of my own life. I am safe, divinely protected, guided and loved. Out of this situation only good will come and everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.

Harvest time has arrived

Friday is a Harvest Full Moon and you may begin to feel it's potent energy today. This full moon is the last Full Moon before the seasons change. It will offer you an opportunity to “harvest” all you can before you enter into the new season. It is also a time for you to reap the rewards of all you have achieved and learned since the Solstice back in June. Today, take a moment to think back to this point in the year. Who were you then? Who are you now? What have you learned? How have you changed? Every now and then, we need to stop, take stock and realize that no matter where you are today or how you may be feeling, you in truth have grown and changed for your highest good! Today, recognize and accept that you are always in the process of making positive changes in your life. Accept where you are right now and let go of what is weighing you down. You are truly in the right place at the right time, doing the right things, always.

Just for today, I relax and enjoy life. I know whatever I need will reveal itself to me at the perfect time, in the perfect way. I flow freely and lovingly with life. I love myself and I know that only good awaits me at every turn. I now open new doors to Life, knowing that there is a solution to every problem I may create and that in truth, everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.
