The trees are leaving out, flowers are blooming and birds are building their nests. Another spring has sprung! How can we make the most of this special season and cherish this time of our life? One way is by pausing to take the time to look inward and reflect upon our life. What is our intention for this very day? How can we make the most out of this moment? How can we bring joy to our life and to the lives of those around us?
simply breathe
Simply by sitting peacefully and observing our breath as it enters and exits our body while saying silently to ourself a short phrase like: “All is Well.” We literally stop the clock for a brief time and give our mind and body time to bathe in Universal Love, Peace, Acceptance and Joy. We reconnect with all that there is and in that moment, we experience more than being one individual, we experience oneness with every living creature on the planet.
the gift that just keeps giving
Give yourself and everyone you will encounter today the gift of present moment awareness. You give it to yourself by being present with yourself. You give it to others, by being fully present with them. They can feel your conscious presence with them, since you won’t be scattered thinking about something else.
Try it today and then again tomorrow until it becomes a daily routine like brushing your teeth. It is like spring cleaning for your mind, body and soul. You deserve it! We all do. Namaste. Debra May
