Love a little more
Settle your shoulders away from your ears, slide your shoulder blades down your back, squeeze them together a little, opening your heart space. Take a deep breath in and feel a little more love.
BREATHE! BREATHE deeply! Feel your chest rise, your ribs expand…FREE your heart. Shed the coat of armor, soften and expand the space surrounding your heart. Invite deeper and more fulfilling breath into the body, and begin to heal, soften, and strengthen your heart space.
Opening the heart allows you to forgive, let go of resentment, release fear…experience more freedom, more love, more joy.
Breathe. FREE your heart.
Keep BREATHing…love a little more.
Life Lessons
Life isn’t so simple,
Or, so, some might say.
But, joy, love and kindness
Can brighten anyone’s day.
And, isn’t that really what matters most of all.
To care for ourselves and those around us…no matter how big or small?
(Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss…and thank you for inspiring these and so many of my other words, thoughts, and actions!)
Beacon of Joy
Do what feels good. Not what feels good to the touch, but what feels good to the soul.
You know…that feeling that comes from way deep down, that bubbles up through your heart space and spontaneously makes the corners of your mouth turn up from the inside. The stuff that breeds butterflies in your belly, causes goose bumps to ripple on the skin, and parts the clouds in a heavy sky.
If you move from that place of good, you cannot help but to be a beacon of abundant joy.
And, isn’t that what life should really be about?
Move From a Place of Joy
When you do something…
…are you fully present?
…does it make the corners of your mouth crease upwards?
…does it make your belly tingle?
…does your spirit dance like a leaf on the wind?
…do others around want to jump in?
…can you feel their curiosity about this delightful state of you?
…do you feel the heat, the light of your true self shining?
…do your eyes sparkle?
Yes, yes, yes!!!!! That is JOY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let them in. Teach them how. Remind YOURSELF!
We need more JOY!
Sparkle…laugh…love…find that natural state of being —
and do it over and over and over again.
