Quiet Essence

Posted on by

 

When life feels like
it’s spinning way too fast

With a simple breath
relaxing into Presence
everything slows down
to the quiet essence
beneath it all

a flow
that never rushes
an inner song
that waits patiently
for us to notice

Trust that even in the chaos
the flow of clarity
and divine wisdom
is ever present
as our guiding light.

New Potentials

Posted on by

 

Close your eyes
Take a deep breath
Feel into the current energies

Although chaos surrounds you
as old energies are splintering
and rising to the surface

At your core
YOU are the embodiment of
newly enLightened energy

Linger here. . . .

Allowing your Divine Light
to shine upon new potentials
for a whole new reality.

Natural Resolve

Posted on by

 

When we allow ourselves
to feel our feelings
by taking them deep
into our heart

A few deep breaths
interrupt the momentum
of the mind’s gyrations
of judgmental thoughts

Giving them space
to naturally resolve
with the flow of Grace.

Energy is Neutral

Posted on by

 

All energy is neutral
neither positive
nor negative
neither benevolent
nor tumultuous

Energy does not carry purpose
it has no agenda
it is simply responding
to my own state being

My life experiences
are a moment by moment
response to energy
whether conscious or unconscious
as resistance or flow

Energy always offers me the gift
of ease and grace.

Divine Wisdom

Posted on by

Breathe beloved
breathe into the core
of your Being
into the core of your
Divine Wisdom

Do not allow
those who expound
the cursory rhetoric
to influence you

For they are
simply parroting
supposed facts
constantly defended
by the extremes
of human duality

Supposed facts
attempting to reshape
our emotional response
attempting to deflect us
from the depth of
our heart center

The only Truth lies
within the core of you
where the human
meets the Divine
with the Gnosis
of your own Wisdom

Breathe beloved
breathe into the core
of your Being
into the core of your
Divine Wisdom.

Overwhelm

Posted on by

When we feel overwhelmed
it is our natural tendency
to pull in and contract
in order to feel safe

But the overwhelm
is asking us to expand
to open more fully
to the totality of who we are

Take a few deep breaths
to clear all the limitations
of the mind clutter
giving it the space it needs

To realize the truth
and embody the totality
of who you are
of what you are capable

Herein lies the magic
of expanded consciousness
to create new realities.

Dispassionate Observer

Posted on by

Take a step back
kick up your feet
take a deep breathe
and allow yourself
to be the dispassionate observer
while humanity plays itself out
as the closing curtain drops
on the final dramas of duality.

Unless, you choose to be
one of the players on the stage
and if so, allow your heart
to lead the way.

Always Here

Posted on by

It is here
my joy and
my passion

It is always here

Even when
it feels like
the world
around me
has gone
asunder

Even when
it is buried
beneath
old memories
that threaten
to diminish it

Even when
others
attempt to
pull me
into their
personal dramas

It is always here

With one deep breath
one gentle exhalation
I sync into
the depth of me
where my
Joy and Passion
continue to
effortlessly
bubble forth
with the simple
recognition
of Who I AM.

Effortless Release

Posted on by

When the energies
of the world around me
are doing loony cartwheels
and jackknifing off
in crazy directions

I slowly inhale
a long deep breath
fully expanding my chest
then allow the exhale
to effortlessly release
all accumulated angst

With my next deep breath
my consciousness settles
into the loving bosom
of my Inner BEing
and Peace prevails.
