The Daily Way

Watch your defenses. When they go up in response to another’s actions, you are identifying more with the roles you are playing than the souls who are playing them. Let down the barriers. Release the need to be right and to explain. Allow the other to BE as long as [...]

When the same thing happens to you over and over, there is a reason. When the same kind of people show up in your life, there is a reason. When you see the same numbers repeatedly, there is a reason. The reason may differ person to person, but the underlying [...]

You knew that could happen, did you not? Whatever it was, beforehand you had a flash of knowing—an insight—that lodged itself in awareness, and then it happened. There. That flash, that catch, that snag … this is what you will come to know as a gift. This may take effort [...]

Grief doesn’t last forever. Grief is an emotion. It comes and goes in waves. When focused on thoughts of loss and separation, these may feel like tidal waves. Sadness does not last forever. It comes and goes, rises and falls, again like waves. Sadness is an emotion … an experience. [...]

Mashed potatoes or “pomme puree”? Three distinct foods plopped on a plate, or plated with aplomb? There is an art to food these days, is there not? And so it is with life. You can live each moment paying no attention to the inherent beauty, or you may live with [...]

At times your efforts to please another seem to be in vain. Why do you make them? Do not do so to get something in return. Do so because you are giving a gift of your love and affection. At the level of the soul, you are interacting with love [...]

What issues have you failed to resolve? What wounds are you carrying forwarded moment by moment just waiting to surface so that you can clear them away and restore yourself to a state of harmony? Your mind, body, and spirit know you are innately whole. They naturally seek balance. This [...]

If you were to pause and take a deep breath, oh what a treasure you would find! First, how much tension the body holds. Now let that go. Exhale long and slow. There, at the bottom of the breath is peace. You cannot remain here long, for this ongoing cycle [...]

Praise. You know it works wonders when you give it to others. You have heard it refer to giving gratitude to Source. Do not wait to receive it from others. Give it liberally to yourself, for you are an extension of the greater Self. There are far too many of [...]

This moment right here, right now, is all you ever have. The rest is memory or prediction, past or future, all arising here and now. Why is this important? Because here and now is where you experience peace. Here and now is where you can connect with any other being, [...]

Always do things for the right reasons.  How do you know what that is?  The soul is your very being. It is not apart from you. It speaks to you from a knowing of right and wrong, of the difference between self-serving—which comes from a place of fear and perceived [...]

Remembering to shift your focus is paramount if you wish to find peace. Peace is found in the external world, but only temporarily in response to events that engender the peaceful state. Each of you might differ in what these peaceful moments are. One might like music to enhance the [...]

Look for signs when you do not know which way to go, what choice to make. Do not signs along a highway direct you to take this turn or that, to slow down or be cautious? This is why you call the meaningful messages that are put in your path [...]

“Wouldn’t it be awesome?” Yes, in the modern vernacular, this is a most awesome way to manifest your dreams. You may have a vision board if you like, but to do so and insist that the items on the board play out exactly as you envision them limits you. Use [...]
