Be Love Today

rose43white.jpg


Today, our focus is on love. Today, I wish you to realize that the love you give to others is also a gift you are giving yourself. When you fill your heart with love, even toward those who have hurt you, then you have the healing benefits of a heart full of love, pumping love to all parts of your body. And love is a soothing and healing nutrient, stronger than any other.

And so, today, give yourself the gift of forgiving and loving others. Release yourself from the prison of resentment, anger and judgment. Let yourself walk free into the place of love and light.

Just let it go. All of the old thoughts, all of the bitterness, just let it go. Release everything that is not love. Let it float off you like a heavy, heavy burden you have carried for too long. And in its place, let love fill you. Fill yourself with a deep love of yourself, of life itself, of all people in all of their struggles, no matter where they may stand on their path.

Fill yourself with a warm embracing love which contains complete forgiveness. Let that flow within you. Feel the warmth and healing power of love as it heals you and connects you to all that is good and wonderful in this world.

Imagine Your Life without Fear or Doubt

Imagine Your Life without Fear or Doubt

rose13.jpg


Today, recognize fear in your life and send it away. Fear is a bully and if you face him down he has no choice but to run. He will run before strength and action. He will run before faith and perseverance. He will even run before patience.

Fear loves to hide under various disguises. Sometimes he is called Tension or Anxiety. Worry is one of his favorite names. Shyness is another. Apathy and Boredom are some very secret names that he has.

If you are not living your life full of action and engagement, embracing life with zest and vigor, then dig a little deeper and see if fear is hiding in the corners of your life, along with his sidekick doubt. Shine the bright lights of self-Love and faith on them. And then act. Do what you fear, over and over, and fear will lose his power over your life.

Imagine, just imagine, what you might do with this precious life of yours if you had no fear and doubt! Yes, this is the way to live. And you have it within your power to do so.

Give Thanks for Being Alive

Give Thanks for Being Alive

rose25-english-garden.jpg


Today, stand in gratitude, no matter what your life holds. Be grateful to be alive, to be drawing this breath, to be standing where you are, poised to take one more step on this glorious adventure.

Does it not seem glorious? Then release your expectations about what you wanted this moment to hold. Release your disappointments and frustrations. Release that pressure to have something occur within a certain time frame. Release all that and instead just be.

Now, is it not glorious? Look up at the sky and let that wide wonder fill you. Look at a leaf and study the detail. Is it not wondrous how each leaf is unique, each and every leaf on every tree, carved out with the wonder and glory of the universe?

And you, are you not wondrous? You are as that leaf, unique in all the world and yet a part of the tree of life. You are full of potential and the possibilities to use that potential are sparkling all around you.

Appreciate what is. Give thanks for being alive. And now, from this place of gratitude, open your heart. Open yourself wide and connect with the wonder. Feel your oneness. Feel how truly blessed you are.

Now is the Portal to Peace

Now is the Portal to Peace

rose17.jpg


Today, let the calm of the inner world wash over you like a wave on the sea. Let the peace and calm that is there for you soothe you and cool you, wash over you and bring you into a state of grace.

You can train yourself to access peace. You can learn a deep inner peace that will carry forward into your life, filling you with a well of peace that is there for you to tap into when you need it during the day.

All that is good in your life comes from this well of peace. The best choices are made from this place, the place beneath emotion, the place beneath confusion. You are connected to all of the wisdom in the world and you are connected through peace. The emotions keep this knowledge from you. Peace gives you access.

And the way to find peace is to enter the Now, this moment, right here, right now. This moment is the portal to a deep peace this is always there, always accessible and always yours.

Honor Yourself Today

Honor Yourself Today

rose15-bewtiched.jpg


Today, give yourself great respect. Let every thought and every action you direct toward yourself to be how you would treat someone for whom you feel both admiration and gratitude, and someone you would like very much to have as a dear friend.

Every thought should be only what you would direct toward such a person. Every action you take should be colored with deep respect, deep kindness and an underlying love for yourself.

You are everything. You are your best friend. You are the one person who will always be there. Treat yourself this way. Give yourself the credit you are due. Honor yourself for how hard you have worked, all of the wonderful things you have done, the many, many ways in which you have learned and grown. Honor yourself for all of this.

You are worth it all. You are worth every kind word and loving act. Treasure yourself today, just for being exactly the person that you are, right now.

Experience the Newness of Life

Experience the Newness of Life


rose19heirloom.jpg


Today, recharge your life with a nice energy bath and with a special assignment.

The energy bath is simple. Picture in the sky above you the sparking gold and silver particles of energy and love that are there for you. Watch them as they swirl gently around, then form in a cone of swirling, cleansing energy. Take your time as the cone of gold and silver energy gently lowers over you, clearing away your anxiety, your boredom, your fear and doubt, your regrets over yesterday and your worries about tomorrow. Let it lower slowly over your entire body, clearing as it goes. Then when you are ready, let it lift off and take away anything that is not light and love.

Now, picture a bright golden ball over your head, your soul self, your higher self, glowing and made of love and energy. Allow a bright golden shaft of self to flow down into you. Open wide the crown of your head and allow this pure and perfect energy to fill you with love, peace, and purpose. Allow it to reignite your passion to live and be. Bask in this joyous presence for as long as you can retain the focus.

And now the assignment: do something today you have never done before. Fresh and cleansed, full of purpose, peace, love and joy, go out into the world and do something new. It may be anything at all, as long as you have never done it before.

Release Your Wonder into the World

Release Your Wonder into the World

rose54.jpg


Your day lies before you like a pond of water. Create a beautiful thought and drop it into the pond. See how your thought causes ripples that reach out across the pond. Take an action, full of love and wonder, and watch the ripples go across the pond of life. Call in loving, benevolent assistance and see how the golden ripples reach further and run deeper than ever before.

Every time you drop in your action or thought, the pond is different, full of the ripples sent out by others as well as the changing energies of the pond itself. It is never the same twice, so what you do today may have an entirely different effect than the same action did yesterday.

Create your beautiful ripples and then release them; let them go. Continue to broadcast your beauty and wonder, over and over, no matter the result. One day, that beautiful and wondrous ripple of yours may release at just the right moment to change the entire world.

You are Not Alone

You are Not Alone

rose35-english-garden-duo.jpg


You are not alone. You are never alone. You are surrounded by love and caring at all times. You are surrounded by wisdom and guidance.

You are a part of all that is. You are a very important part, and who you are and what you do influences the rest, just as the rest influences you. And within all of this, there is love, the very substance of the universe.

You may choose whatever metaphor you like, be it angels, spirit guides, ascended masters, God and the holy ghost. Call it what you will, it is real, tangible, powerful.

Your importance is such that helpful, loving and wise beings and energies are with you at all times to point out to you the next step to take, to make the road clearer, to guide you along the path best suited for your own purpose.

You can learn to tap into this advice with direct communication or you can just feel it, in your core. Following your own inner knowing, subtle though it may be, is often the very best way.

But know that you are loved, helped and aided. And if you are in trouble, release your emotions, come down deep and feel all of the love which surrounds you, like a warm comforting blanket on a chilly night.

You are Deeply Important

rose34.jpg


You are deeply important. Every challenge you face increases not only your own strength and courage, but that of the entire world. For you are one of the fortunate ones, who is striving toward light, and every time you overcome the shadows by shining more brightly, you light up the world.

Every time you heal yourself, you heal the world. Every time you smile, shine with joy, or release an old fear, the world’s burden is lightened. Every time you choose peace over anger, the world can relax a bit more.

You have an individual path to walk and your own individual mountains to climb, but as you do so, each step is part of something larger, and what you do, how you think, how you express yourself, is a part of all that is. You are completely connected, inseparable from all that is, and everything you do and are has an impact.

All of this has nothing to do with your status, money, success or appearance. All of this has everything to do with inner peace, outer compassion and kindness, as you move ever toward the place where you shine with only now, this moment, seeing it in all its glory unfolded and unbound.
