If you want to live a different life Dear One, if you want to live the life of your dreams, you can. But you should know that it will come at a cost.  Sacrifices are going to have to be made.

You are going to have to sacrifice the old vision that you have had of yourself, the old story that you have been telling about yourself, the old limitations that you have been holding onto, the old patterns that you have been maintaining, the old heartaches that you have been nursing, the old hurts that you have been hanging on to.

Will it be difficult?

It could be.

Will it be worth it?

There is only way to know for sure!

Sometime healing does not require a new herb, potion, tonics or pill Dear One.  Sometimes it does not require a new way of thinking, moving, eating, or behaving. Sometimes it does not require a new mantra, meditation, massage or treatment.  Sometimes it doesn’t even require compassion, understanding, insight or forgiveness.

Sometimes Dear One, the only thing that is required to heal, is rest.

So, before you go off in search of a new answer, a new technique, a new practice, a new method, a new plan for healing your body, for healing your life, why not give resting a try instead.

Make a commitment, to sleep, for the whole night, every single night, for one week, and see how you feel.

Don’t make excuses about why this can’t happen Dear One, just make sure that it does

No matter how badly you feel, no matter how badly you made them feel, no matter how much you punish yourself, or those around you, regret will not solve, fix, change or improve anything for the better, Dear One.

It never has and it never will.

Regret won’t help you or them to forget, forgive, connect, improve, repair, restore, heal, or move on.

But forgiveness will – hope will – courage will – faith will – strength, love, kindness, and compassion will.

The energy that creates worlds is within you right now Dear One.  It is flowing to you, flowing through you, flowing from you.  Whether you choose to believe it or not, whether you are conscious of it or not, whether you choose to acknowledge it or not, you are swimming in it, interacting with it, and creating with it, every minute of every day.

And yet you are acting as if all is ordinary, unremarkable, and routine in your world – you are behaving as if something miraculous is not happening to you, right now.

Well you should know Dear One, that it most definitely is.

The people, circumstances, events, and relationships in your life are not the problem Dear One.

It is your reaction to them, your expectations of them, your behavior towards them, and your beliefs about them, that is the cause of most of your discontent.

Isn’t that wonderful news?

You don’t have to wait, hope, push, or pray for them to change in order for things to get better.

You can change you, and make things better right now!

Why choose to doubt yourself, punish yourself, be hard on yourself, judge yourself, or skimp on yourself Dear One, when you can choose to comfort yourself, forgive yourself, have confidence in yourself,  be generous with yourself, and love yourself instead?

The path of least resistance does not lead to sameness Dear One, it leads to change.

How?

We’ll explain.

The world is constantly changing, all the time.  Everything within and around you is always in a state of change.  It is either growing or decaying, without exception.

In each and every moment of your life you are changing too, you are different, you are not the same person, in the same environment that you were the moment before, and therefore do not have the same perspective that you had the moment before.

So therefore while you may think that doing nothing will lead to nothing, will result in everything remaining the same, it is just not true.  The truth Dear One, is actually that if you do nothing, absolutely nothing but allow life to flow and yourself to flow along with it, no moment, no day, no experience in your life will ever be the same, could ever be the same, as the moment before.

Can you see that?

Sameness requires effort. Sameness requires action. Sameness can only happen if you choose to create it, if you choose to do, and be, and say, and think something over and over and over again in an environment of constantly changing conditions.

Get it?

Be generous Dear One, with your spirit, with your gifts, with your heart, in all that you do.  There is no reason for you to hold on to yourself, to hold back  – for you will never run out of you or of any of the wonderful qualities that make you, you.  In fact, the more of yourself that you give away, the quicker you will find yourself restored.  Share your gifts, share yourself.  Allow both to flow freely out into the world.

Remember Dear One, you live in an abundant universe – where there is no lack.

But know that there is a big difference between giving yourself away/giving of yourself and having others take from you.  You will know the difference by how it feels to you because one is restorative and energizing and the other is rather draining.

Take notice of how your energy is flowing – from you, through you, out into the world.

Once you become aware of and can see the difference between giving your energy willingly and having it taken from you, either aggressively or passively, it is our belief that you will at once acquire an awareness of how to protect yourself and prevent the latter from taking place.

Once you learn to see and direct how and where you energy flows, no one or no thing will ever be able to take it from you again without your consent.

The idea of being overwhelmed Dear One, the anticipation of not being able to handle it all, can be far more stressful then the actual stress of completing all of the tasks before you.
Truly.

So what are you meant to do with this piece information?

We’ll tell you.

• Instead of telling yourself “I can’t”, tell yourself “I can”
• Instead of telling yourself “it’s going to be a nightmare”, tell yourself  “everything is going to work out”
• Instead of telling yourself  “I don’t have all the answers”, tell yourself  “I know all of the answers I need will come to me”.

And then take a deep breath, let it go, and believe it.

If you continue to hold on to the belief that you can’t Dear One, that it’s too hard, difficult, or complicated, life will go right on proving to you that you are right.
