You are beautiful.

\”I am unlimited in my wealth. All areas of my life are abundant and fulfilling.\”
~Louise Hay~

Empty yourself of the things that block your light. Beyond the stories of the ego, beyond perceived mistakes and crystallized beliefs, lies the infinite, loving energy of the Divine.

Life is simply a series of opportunities to observe and release the heavy energies of limitation. Simply observe yourself without judgment or expectation. Discard what you no longer need and embrace what brings you joy.

Awakening is a process. There are moments of breakthrough, new vision, empowerment and freedom, sometimes followed by resistance, apathy and the resurgence of old patterns. Don\’t allow the ego to tell you that it\’s all for naught – you are not broken or wrong. Instead, focus upon the light which shines from within, illuminating the garden of your soul, heart and spirit. You are a master in the process of awakening.

Allow joy to guide you and open your consciousness to the expansion of life. Be gentle with yourself as you grow and change.

Imagine a life that is filled with messages from the Divine.

\”I view all experiences as opportunities for me to learn and grow.\”
~Louise Hay~

Take a deep slow breath, close your eyes and imagine….

Imagine that you are safe. Feel the healing powers of the earth with each and every step you take.

Imagine that you are surrounded by love and that you can easily recognize and understand the messages from the Divine in the world around you.

Imagine that there are no wrong choices. Each path simply leads to a different type of experience – any of which will lead you exactly where you need to be in order to learn and grow.

Imagine that it is easier than ever before to be present. See yourself basking in the beauty of a day filled with unlimited possibility and discovery and walk forward in faith that all is well.

Now realize that whatever you imagine already exists and you can live this truth Now.

Stillness is inner peace

\”When I find harmony and balance in my mind, I find it in my life.\”
~Louise Hay~

When the mind is still, a profound difference is felt in every aspect of your experience. Going inward allows you to touch this new kind of silence and align yourself with Presence. Cultivate the ability to stop the invasive flow of thought and practice bringing a sense of stillness to your life situation.

True peacefulness cannot be disturbed. Even in the midst of chaos and movement, you will bring a sense of empowerment and balance that is immeasurable.

The ego desires distraction and creates diversion. It occupies moments of stillness with thoughts that bring up old stories, cultivates fear and sparks needless movement. Observe what happens when you move into stillness – truth and light and love await.

You can step our of thousands of years of human conditioning. Bring your awareness within. Let stillness be the basis of your words and actions.

\”Whenever you deeply accept this moment as it is – no matter what form it takes – you are still, you are at peace.\”
~Eckhart Tolle~

We live in a realm of infinite potential. No matter how much you learn, you are just getting started…

\”I am aware that what I do not want to change is exactly what I need to change the most.\”
~Louise Hay~

Live in a spirit of adventure, full of trust. Step by step, be drawn by a sense of wonder into the unknown. Everyone and every situation you encounter has something to teach. See if you can set aside your knowledge and allow yourself to be open and vulnerable. Then everything becomes an adventure.

\”Notice your ideals and expectations. Watch your habitual patterns. Observe your emotional reactions. See them for what they are. This is the path to transformation.\”
~Ezra Bayda~

During the course of the day, become an active listener. Engage others by allowing them to share a new perspective without offering your opinion, just listen. Always seek to add a new layer of richness and dimension to your way of being in the world.

On your morning Gratitude Walk or during meditation, spread your arms open wide. Visualize your heart chakra opening to receive and be willing to see clearly.

Today my intention is to look forward with enthusiasm to the adventures of the day.  

Do you ever forget that you are a magnificent, abundant, infinite being of light playing a game of discovery…?

\”I am empowered and confident. I hold my head up high.\”
~Louise Hay~

The game we play is not about winning. It is learning how to consistently bring clarity and insight to the present moment. Rather than blindly responding to the events of life, we discover they are purposeful, a constantly evolving and unfolding of opportunities meant to facilitate soul growth and understanding.

The most important aspect of awakening is personal responsibility. Seek to bring mastery to all that you do. Watch how you choose to interact with others. Pay attention to how you choose to experience the present moment. Look at yourself without judgment or condemnation.

There is only consciousness or unconsciousness. One brings peace, the other conflict. As your inner light begins to express itself through the various events you experience, realize that nothing can ever dim the infinite beauty of the Divine. It seeks only to experience the present moment through you, for you bring something beautiful to the world that perfectly completes this intricate tapestry we call life.

The only things we truly know are the ones we have learned from conscious living.

\”Every person, place and thing on this planet is interconnected with love. I am at home in the Universe.\”
~Louise Hay~

Spiritual awakening requires the willingness to step into the unknown. When you stop playing it safe and move beyond the edge of previous experience, your energy expands. Saying \”Yes\” to life, welcoming it all – even the moments of discomfort or challenge – allows you to cultivate new aspect of your own strength.

As an infinite being, there is always something new for you to discover. This is the path of lasting joy. Imagine a life of mystery and enchantment… it is there waiting for you in the midst of the chaos of human experience.

When you rise above a challenge, it changes you. Suddenly things become more clear and wisdom awakens from within. Don\’t wait for your life to be perfect before you choose to feel happy and fulfilled. Open fully to what is. Use it. Embrace it. Live in real engagement with the world around you.

\”The willingness to simply rest in the physical experience of your life is the key to spiritual transformation.\”
~Ezra Bayda~

Love is seeing through the roles and illusions to recognize the Divine in another.

\”My heart is opening wider and wider. Love flows from me and to me in ever-increasing amounts. I feel great. People love being around me.\”
~Louise Hay~

Ego-driven love is based upon expectations, hopes and conditioning. It is filled with thought, doubt and fear. Soul-driven love allows. It accepts. It sees through the mechanisms of the ego to the truth within another (which, of course, is a reflection of the truth within ourselves!).

Each day, consciously make the choice to observe your thoughts and reactions rather than become a slave to them. When they arise, notice if you have attached to a particular outcome. If so, simply be aware of it and choose instead to focus upon something that awakens your light. This practice brings greater awareness and compassion to your relationships.

\”The spiritual practice of relationships is about working on ourselves only, freeing ourselves from the constricting grip of our own unhappiness. It is not the other person\’s job to take our unhappiness away; our discomfort is our own responsibility. Attending to our own spiritual tasks – seeing our judgments, opinions, beliefs, demands, and staying present with the fears out of which they all arise – frees others to move toward us. Then when they no longer feel the need to defend, they become more willing to take care of their job. Thus, joy in relationships becomes possible.\”
~Ezra Bayda~

Today my intention is to remember that love is not asking for something, love is ready only to give.

Resistance, whether internal or external, is a sign of authentic change.

\”I forgive others, and I now create my life in the
way I want it to be.\”
~Louise Hay~

As we change, the world around us is transformed. Pay attention to resistance when it arises, for it is an indicator that the work you are doing is sending waves of transformative energy outward. Conversely, If you get no push-back from those around you, it\’s likely that you have yet to truly embrace the new way of being.

Your awakening will shift how you choose to respond to others. When their ego doesn\’t receive the typical energy or drama it is used to, it will likely seek another route to trigger an upset. It will seem that person is determined to push your buttons in one way or another… and they are! Now is the moment to consciously be aware of how you choose to respond. Can you continue to apply your newfound wisdom? That soul is providing you the opportunity to witness your new skills in action.

Love those who challenge you. They are playing an important role in your development. Your soul\’s purpose is to awaken. Celebrate it, love it, welcome it, and a great transformation will happen within you.

Today my intention is to release the need to blame anyone. I accept people around me as they are.

Relax… your soul knows exactly what it is doing.

\”I am kind and gentle with myself as I grow and change.\”
~Louise Hay~

Enlightenment takes us from one dimension to another. It comes only when we have reached a point in our experience when we finally touch the unknowable and strip away our limiting beliefs and expectations. Then we can cut through the illusions that silently run our lives.

Be one of those daring souls who chooses to drop all belief, unbelief, doubt, reason and mind in order to free yourself to enter the realm of pure, unlimited potential. Rather than being involved in philosophy, become involved in metamorphosis.

\”When our plans crumble and there seems to be nothing left, it is only by completely surrendering to what is that we an realize that what is left is more than enough.\”
~Ezra Bayda~

Choose to experience this moment as if you had purposely created it. For the highest, wisest aspects of yourself most certainly did… for your benefit.

\”Every experience I have benefits me. I am in the process of positive change.\”
~Louise Hay~

Everything plays a role in your awakening. Moment to moment, choose to bring the highest version of yourself to the circumstances of your life experience. Rather than seeking for meaning, bring meaning to the joys and challenges you encounter. This approach will always send you on a journey inward to touch the wisdom of the heart.

The awakening spirit is merely cultivating the tools that are necessary to navigate its unique journey. Allow those you love to walk their own path, discover their own interpretations, address their own limiting patterns and rejoice with them each step of the way.

When we seek to shield others from pain, we may be blocking purposeful movement of their souls growth. Look at your own life. Didn\’t every disappointment, loss and problem send you into new places? Are you not richer for the lessons you have lived through? Let your life be your message.

Today my intention is to remember that I create my own experiences. As I love and approve of myself and others, my life gets better and better.
