We are ONE

We are all recognizing right now,perhaps for the first time in all of our lives, exactly how connected we truly are. Every single person in this world is on some level being affected by Covid-19. It doesn't matter what country you are from, your gender, or how much money you have - we all are experiencing this phenomenon together. We are all the same in the face of the virus. And, from this awakened state in which we understand that in truth we are all the same that we are beginning to look out for one another - doing what needs to be done to help each other. The entire world is in this together. Today, recognize that in truth we are all connected, despite how polarized our world has become. The same pain, joy, love, and wisdom that runs through you, runs through everyone you come in contact with. We are all experiencing the same fear and uncertainty and the only way we will win this fight is together. Today, begin to see we are far more alike than we knew before, we are in fact one.

Just for today, I recognize that I am connected to all life. Every person, place or thing is connected by love. I am at home in the Universe. I know that peace begins with me. The more peaceful I am inside, the more peace I have to share with others. I am safe and everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.

All that you seek is already within you

Everyone that crosses your path is a mirror and every experience is presented to you to teach you something about how you are keeping yourself limited and blocking love from entering your life. And, from all of those people and experiences you are intended to learn that in truth everything you want is already within yourself- rather than from something or someone outside yourself. It’s about waking up and somehow staying awake no matter how challenged you feel. Today, awaken to the truth that things do not happen to you but rather for you-for you to learn, to grow and to change. Today, begin to see all of your experiences as opportunities to break down the fear that keeps you from fully giving and receiving your own love and love from other people. If you can live life consciously and authentically—understanding that things do not happen to you, but rather for you—you can use everything that comes in to your life as experience to your benefit. Today, use your life experiences to break down the barriers within you that are stopping you from returning to love and keeping you stuck in fear. Today, know that your external world is only a reflection of your inside world and when you change the inside your outer world will change too. Today, set your intentions to be open to change and to begin to look within to find everything that you've been seeking from your outside world.

Just for today, I recognize that all that I seek is already within me. I do not fix my problems. I fix my thinking and my problems fix themselves. Every person, place or thing is a mirror of who and what I am. I attract only positive loving relationships and experiences into my life for they are a reflection of who and what I am. I am safe. I am divinely guided, protected and loved. Everything is working out for my highest good and out of this situation only good will come. And so it is.

Faith is the antidote for fear

Fear is all around us and it is our job to learn to substitute faith for fear if we are going to heal. You may have heard that you need to take a leap of faith in order to develop faith. But, in reality, there is no need to leap anywhere. Faith in truth doesn't require logic, intellect or reasoning. In fact, faith can be what we carry with us in each step we take of our daily lives, as the rule and not the exception. So there really is no need to take any "leap" in order to have faith, faith in the Universe. It is only with faith that you can accomplish your dreams; it is with faith that you can build visions of new beginnings, filled with possibilities; it is with faith that your creativity grows; and it is with faith that you can take hold of the energy you need to get you through all the changes we are all facing right now; and it is with faith that you will be able to create an entire new way of being. Today, begin to allow yourself to trust in the Universe, to trust in a power greater than yourself! Today allow yourself to let go of the need to control every aspect of your life. Today, simply accept the wonderful things you already have and then adjust our expectations, while trusting that everything you need either is already within you, available to you now and in your future. Today, trust and have faith that everything is always working out for your and my highest good.

Just for today, I am willing to release my fears. I now live and move in a safe and secure world. I free myself from all destructive fears and doubts. I surrender to what is. I let go of what was and I have faith in what will be. Everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.

Happy Spring!

Happy Spring! Yesterday, marked the exact halfway point of this year and officially ushered in Spring. And, although you may have been distracted by the uncertainty of our times, this is truly a time to find balance in our lives, for new growth, rejuvenation and renewal. Today, re-focus your attention and allow the energy of the March Equinox, to help you create balance within yourself. You and I are being called to find our center, and to restore equilibrium to our mind, body, and soul. Today, honor the incredible journey that we are all on and all the pain and joy it brings. But, also honor the light that lives in each and every one of us and the optimism and hope it can bring. Today, let us all be washed with hope and healing that every Spring brings.

Just for today, I am renewed and restored by the faith I have in my own healing power of love. My mind and body are in perfect balance. I am a harmonious being. My life is joyously balanced between work and play. I am safe. It is only change and everything in my life works now and forever more. And so it is.

YOU are not alone

We are living in a time of great fear and uncertainty. Compounding that fear is our forced social isolation, also known as social distancing, which is showing us all how in reality we had already lost our inter-connectedness, way before we were forced to isolate, we have lost our sense of community. Ironically, the internet, social media and texts, which were meant to keep us connected, have kept us isolated, with shallow meaningless relationships. Somewhere along the line, we began to substitute meeting people face to face or reaching out to them for a conversation with liking things on social media or sending an emoji's. Today, however, from the forced isolation, we can begin to reconnect with one another on a more meaningful and deeper level. As we practice social distancing we will have to find new ways to stay connected-ways that can help one another; ways in which we show true concern. Today we can begin to heal through connecting with others; by forming a new world community in which we care for one another. Today, know that you are not alone and that there are people that want to help you. So, ask for help if you need help and help if you can be of assistance. Let the people in your life know you are here for them in a real way. And let go of those people who serve no purpose in your life. None of us have any more time to waste on this planet on superficial, energy draining relationships. Please know that I am here for you for whatever you could need from me. And, that I love you. Today, know that we will get through this and we will be stronger and better 'cause we will be together through it all.

Just for today, I recognize that every person, place and thing on this planet is interconnected by love. I am at home in the Universe. I have come to this planet to learn to love myself more and to share that love with others. I am safe. I am loved and I feel connected to all of Life. In this present moment, all is truly well in my world. And so it is.

Change is coming

Saturn is our teacher this year and it will be changing signs for the first time in three decades on March 21st. Saturn is the planet that is known as the taskmaster and is associated with limitations, restrictions, responsibility, boundaries, and discipline, as well as time, age, older people, patriarchy, and fathers. And, when Saturn is present he often invokes a lot of FEAR. It is human nature to want to expand and grow but Saturn likes to contract, which is often what makes him so scary and it is what has made us all feel stuck and mired in fear! However once you learn the lessons of Saturn, despite how challenging they are, he ultimately brings FREEDOM and STRENGTH. And, when Saturn moves out of its present sign of Capricorn into the visionary and humanitarian Aquarius, we will all get a welcome relief from the intense and heavy energy of Saturn. Aquarius, an air sign, will bring new ways for us to communicate, technology that will move us forward and advance the planet, and a humanitarian spirit, which we desperately need right now. Furthermore, Aquarius is an air sign, and with the current limitations placed on travel, the air we breathe is having some much-needed healing. All of the shock and revelations that this cycle is bringing us is intended to force us individually and collectively to slow down, take some time alone, go within and do some real soul searching. And as with all cycles, this too shall pass. Today, trust that change is coming. Trust that you will get through this and in the meantime, let's all look after each other with love and compassion so that we can all heal and find new and better ways of living for our future.

Just for today, I will not allow noise, chatter or setbacks to distract me. I will allow patience, purpose, commitment and grace to guide me. Regardless of my setbacks, I always have a comeback in me. I return to the basics of life forgiveness, gratitude, compassion, love and humor. I am safe. It is only change and out of this situation only good will come. And so it is.

This too shall pass

“However long the night, the dawn will break.” It seems as if we are all walking around feeling helpless, fearful and wondering what comes next. All that wondering, worrying and creating imaginary scenarios are making our lives harder and much more terrifying than they currently need to be. Today, set your intentions to remember throughout the entire day that this too shall pass-use it as your mantra. Today, instead of focusing on the illusions that you have created out of your fear, consciously distract yourself by actively engaging in other areas of your life-clean your house, take a walk or set some new goals during this time of quarantines. Today, instead of focusing on how terrified you are of the unknown or what will happen, remember how you overcame similar challenges and obstacles in your past. When faced with much unknown, most of us forget that we have overcome similar struggles in the past. Today think about your victories in the past instead of creating monsters and worst case scenarios that may never exist in your future. And finally, remember all the good things in your life that still exists. Do not let the darkness blind you from seeing the stars. It is human nature to get caught up with the things that we have no control over and look somewhat bleak. However, there is so much good that still exists in our lives, if we choose to focus on it. So today, be grateful for the good that still exists in your life. It has been said that a grateful heart is a magnet for abundance and miracles. No matter how terrible life may seem today and for the foreseeable future, there are always good things if we keep our eyes open for them. Today, you have the power to see the good, to learn the lessons and to cherish this day for it is the only one we are ever promised. Today, be the master of your mind; choose to be grateful and know that this too shall pass.

Just for today, I recognize that I am not a victim of my thoughts but rather a master of my mind. I awaken appreciating everything good in sight and I give thanks for them all. I do not fix my problems. I fix my thinking and my problems fix themselves. I move through Life knowing that I am always divinely guided, protected and loved. All is truly well in my world. And so it is.

Stay present

When you are present and grounded you can handle anything. When you are panicked and frightened, it can be challenging to make clear and focused decisions for your life. Today, set your intentions to remain present. Today recognize that the best way to move through this time of great uncertainty with grace is to stay in the present moment. No matter what is happening in the world around you, as long as you stay present, you will continue to be divinely guided for your highest good. You have a lot more assistance that you realize and that guidance is always available to you when you live in this present moment.

Just for today, I release the past pain and worries of the future. I now turn my full attention to this present moment. The past is over and done and cannot be changed. This is the only moment I can experience. I practice forgiveness daily so that I can move out of the past and into this present moment. I recognize that my point of power is always in the present moment. I am safe. It is only change. And everything is always working out for my highest good. And so it is.

Gratitude

The struggle ends when the gratitude begins. Every day we all have so much to be grateful for. But, when something knocks us off course or things don't go our way, it can be easy to forget just how many amazing things there are in our lives to be grateful for, even just in one single day. It’s as if a setback erases our memories of all the good things and it feels like nothing has ever gone right for us. Today, would be a good day to begin to practice gratitude by starting a gratitude diary. Like everything else in our lives that we want to master, developing an attitude of gratitude takes daily practice. It has been said, that “Gratitude is not the result of things that happen to us; it is an attitude we cultivate by practice.” So today, begin to practice gratitude-look for things to be grateful for and take a moment to write them down. Choose to be grateful for your challenges, for the things that didn't work out and for all your blessings. And, when you choose to be grateful for the opportunities that come to you as a result of seemingly bad occurrences, then you are a master of gratitude and you will be on your way to a happy life! Today, choose to be grateful!

Just for today, I express gratitude for all the good in my life. The more gratitude that I feel the more I aware I am that the supply is endless. I am grateful for every experience that I have every had for they have shaped me into who I am right now and that is exactly who I am supposed to be. I begin and end each day in gratitude and joy. All is truly well in my world. And so it is.

Surrender!

Surrender! Surrender literally means to stop fighting. Stop fighting with yourself. Stop fighting the universe and the natural flow of things. Stop resisting and pushing against reality. And, surrender is the complete acceptance of what is and then accepting that all is well, even without your input. Today, you and I would be best served to surrender and stop trying to control everything, stop trying to keep everything the way it was or the way you "thought" it should be. Today, surrender and choose to believe that you live in a friendly universe. Choose to let go of your need to control and recognize that you in reality were never in control. Today choose to surrender, choose to be at peace with the process of Life.

Just for today, I surrender to what is. I let go of what was and I have faith in what will be. I feel safe in the rhythm and flow of my every changing Life. I move through Life, knowing that I am divinely protected, guided and loved. I am safe. It is only change. And everything is always working out for my highest good. And so it is.

Peace begins inside of you

Our world is waking up to some much needed healing. Amidst all the chaos and confusion, there is much hope and healing, even if it is currently being masked by our collective suffering. In reality, our suffering is simply highlighting how we all need to shift our consciousness to experience the beauty of all life-not just what we like, control or what feels good to us. And, we are collectively learning how to value self care, simplicity and how to live with less so that we can be kinder to one another and to the Earth. Today, make time to reflect on how you can find peace amidst the panic and to simplify your life so you can experience more joy by doing less and having less.

Just for today, I recognize that peace begins within me. The more peaceful I am inside, the more peace I have to share with others. I am in harmony with all people, places and things that surround me. I am safe. I am loved, divinely guided and protected. And, out of this situation only good will come. And so it is.

Fear alert

We are living in a time of immense change, positive change and while we are in the transition, you may be feeling rather uncomfortable and perhaps frightened. And although things may feel really crazy right now it is important that you make time to relax and rejuvenate your body and your soul. Today, make sure you remember to breathe. Eat well, get enough rest and find ways to ground yourself. It is your responsibility to take care of yourself so that your immunity will be able to handle anything that life throws at you. If you are making excuses why you don't have the time for self care, today would be a good day to let go of the belief that everyone and everything is more important than your well being. In fact, let go of everything that is no longer serving you-everything and everyone. It is time you say enough is enough and let go of everything that is draining you and everything that takes from you and yet never gives back. It is ultimately up to you to turn your fear into power-the power to change your life.

Just for today, I let go of all fear and doubt and Life becomes simple and easy for me. I recognize that stress is only fear. I now release all destructive fears and doubts. I accept myself exactly as I am and create peace in my mind and my heart. I am loved. I am safe and in truth, everything always is working out for my highest good. And so it is

Self Care Day

Sometimes, when you're stressed out and running around taking care of everybody else, the healthiest thing you can do is to stop and consider how you can take care of yourself. While this seems obvious to some people, many of us struggle with the idea of putting ourselves first. We were raised to think we should always put others before ourselves and ignore our own needs—that it is somehow arrogant or self-centered, and not a nice thing to do. Today, is the day the you and I begin to restore harmony into our lives after the upheaval and unrest that the retrograde energy created for all of us. Today, consciously begin to understand that rescuing and taking care of others needs before your own does not make you a hero but rather a martyr and a victim. Today, instead of spending every waking hour thinking about that another person and forgetting yourself, focus on yourself and your needs. Today begin to recognize your worth and when you recognize your own worth, you'll realize that you are so deserving of your own care and love. When you are confident in your love for yourself and treat yourself as if you are worthy, then that is what you will attract back. Today set your intentions to make self care your priority. Today, know you are worthy. Today, be there for others, but never leave yourself behind.”

Just for today, I am willing to release the need to feel unworthy. I am worthy of the very best in Life and I now lovingly allow myself to accept it. Nourishing myself is a joyful experience. I am worth the time spent healing myself. I choose to feel good about myself. I am worthy of my own love. I am safe, divinely guided, protected and loved. And, all is truly well in
