Living an authentic life is an expression of love and empowerment.
\”Looking with a mind that\’s awake reveals the shimmering pulse of life. Looking with a mind full of thoughts reveals only your thoughts.\”
~Ezra Bayda~
Living an awakened life calls upon us to consistently and purposefully bring the best version of ourselves to our life experience. This daily practice can show us areas where we are stuck as well as how much we have grown over the years.
As we relentlessly observe ourselves, noticing our self-image and ego driven stories, we begin to release the illusions that block us from living authentically. Ultimately, we discover that we are more than our stories or the roles we play in this lifetime. We can step into the freedom of not needing to be defined.
The most powerful aspect of spiritual growth is the ability to Be Here Now. Immerse yourself within the present moment and all that it offers, seeking only to be fully conscious. Your choices, goals and journey will reflect the peace that you are.
Today my intention is to be an authentic example of acceptance, peace and loving-kindness.
