If you focus your energy more towards welcoming what you want, rather than blocking out what you don't, you're going to benefit in so many ways. For one, you'll have a lot more energy to accept the things you want, because welcoming is exciting, whereas resistance is such a drain. And, energy flows where attention … Continue reading Welcoming

Brave the Day
Sometimes it can feel so daunting to get up and get out into another day. Sometimes it seems like it would be safer to hide under the covers. But life keeps moving on, only if you're lucky. And, the funny thing is that it's easier to get up, get moving, and brave the day, than … Continue reading Brave the Day
Get On With It
Time only marches forward. There is no pause button. There is no rewind. If you're resisting change, then you're only torturing yourself, because change is inevitable. You might as well get on with it, and learn to enjoy the ride. After all, if you aren't changing and growing, then you're rotting.
Keep Going
Life only moves forward, but sometimes we can stay mentally and emotionally stuck. We can feel paralyzed with fear about how to move on when we've already experienced such intense pain. But holding back and staying stuck is what's continuing the pain. That resistance is likely much more painful than the actual event even was. … Continue reading Keep Going
Grief
Despite all of the wishing and all of the positive thinking that you can muster, it's just inevitable that you'll experience grief sometimes. Grief is part of the human experience. Grief comes as part of the package-deal of loss that we all risk might happen, whenever we choose to love someone or something. Grief is … Continue reading Grief
Release
Release the past. Release the pain that you're holding onto. I know you want to feel vindicated. I know you want to protect yourself from getting hurt like that again. But holding onto the pain and reliving the past is only causing you to hurt yourself. Release it. Move forward and don't look back. Release … Continue reading Release
Adaptable
The superpower that has helped humans survive and thrive is their ability to adapt. Being adaptable is your ace in the hole for navigating all of the massive and minuscule changes that our society is going through. It's when we forget that we can adapt that these changes become unbearable. When we try to hold … Continue reading Adaptable
Flow
I believe there is a force that flows through us, and this force runs our lives. It's that energy that beats our hearts, breathes us, and flows thoughts endlessly throughout our minds. It's the spark of God that gives us life. We can't stop the flow of this force, but we can certainly try to … Continue reading Flow
Alignment
We have a natural sense of well being. Our bodies are meant to heal and regenerate, they just already know how to do it. And we just need to stay out of the way. Better yet, we just need to go easy with life, and drop resistance. Without holding on to resistance, we glide naturally … Continue reading Alignment
For
The way to solve your problems is to not give them all of your attention. Focus on what you are for and pay no mind to what you are against. What you resist persists, so you're only helping to keep your problems with you if you're so focused on fighting them. Try focusing on what … Continue reading For
Relax
Where do you have tension? What are you resisting against, either physically or mentally? Why? How long do you have to brace yourself against this thing? Can you finally just let it go? Living in tension is an exhausting way to live. Can you let yourself just breathe, let the chips fall where they may, … Continue reading Relax
Simple
This may sound overly simple, but it's extremely empowering to remember that all we are ever really dealing with is a thought, and that can be changed. It truly just boils down to our thoughts on any given subject. Are we feeling resistance in our thoughts about it? Or are we in agreement with it? … Continue reading Simple
Decisions
I believe that if you're having trouble with a decision in life, particularly on deciding if choosing one way is the right choice, then that means that it is not. The best choice is to stop struggling with a decision. The decision is no. The best course of action is to move on from this … Continue reading Decisions
The Best Defense
The answer is love. You could get angry for all kinds of reasons. You can get fed up. You can prove how wrong the other side is. Or you can focus on love. Simply focus on what you can love. One way is about contraction, resistance, and darkness, which is a health-killer. The other is … Continue reading The Best Defense
