It's all about you!

The path we walk is lined with the lessons we need for our individual evolution.

With those lessons comes teachers whether they be in the form of experience with other people, places or things, something we read or hear, etc. All valuable contributors to gaining wisdom.

None of those other teachers can live your life for you. Ultimately, it is up to you. Only you can decide your own direction. Others may guide or try to persuade you. But this is YOUR journey and you are the only one you will have with you for the entirety of it.

So it's time for you to get in touch with your own wisdom. And you absolutely have plenty of it. All that you need is within you and the answers you seek, you will find.

Meditation is an ideal way to access your wisdom. Whether you have 5 minutes or 5 hours, try to find some time every day to get in touch with your self.

Being a full time mama, I've often found this hard so I've learned to imagine myself as the eye of the storm that is often around me with three active children. Breathing deeply is an excellent way to calm yourself and slow down your mind, especially when you focus on each breath. It gets me through the day more calmly until I can get a little bit of time to myself, whether it's in the bath or being in nature while the kids build a fairy house or play together while I can take a step back and go within. Sometimes I meditate for a little while before sleep or when I wake up.

Time can be found. Things can wait...the washing, paperwork etc. Find time for you, access your wisdom and you will find guidance relevant to you right now.

Quote by Ramona L Anderson

People spend a lifetime searching for happiness; looking for peace. They chase idle dreams, addictions, religions, even other people, hoping to fill the emptiness that plagues them. The irony is the only place they ever needed to search was within. Ramona L. Anderson 1887-1949 American writer

labels

How many times do you get caught up thinking of yourself as one thing as defined by what you do...for example, a parent, a plumber, a banker, etc. And then you get confused because you feel like you're not just that, you're also a son, a sister, a friend, a member of a sports or social group, someone who has to take care of the family finances, do the maintenance on the car, clean the house, do volunteer work, etc. We are all so busy these days! Yet sometimes think we can only focus on one of these sides of ourselves at a time. What if you thought of yourself as a diamond? So many different sides, yet it takes all of them to capture the light to make it shine so very brightly.. ..that is you! Don't try to limit yourself with one label. Know that it is good to have different sides of yourself. You don't have to show just one at a time. Let yourself move through those different aspects of yourself as if you were imagining moving a diamond in the light, watching yours

Release

Is there something causing you stress at the moment? A pile of paperwork? Kids not getting along? Drama at work? Whatever it is..... Just for a moment, pretend that whatever the source of your stress is.....doesn't matter at all. Go on, really try it. ...it just doesn't matter. Take a few deep breaths and as you exhale, release your attachment to the stress. Do it again, go deeper...believe it. If you can release your attachment to stress, it will not be stress anymore, but it will be just some 'thing' that you will deal with. Just as you would if you were hiking and got a little pebble in your shoe. You can either keep walking and feel the discomfort that comes with having an irritating wedge digging into your foot. Getting annoyed at the pebble for getting into your shoe. Or you can stop, take a moment for your self and remove the pebble. Releasing that irritation. It doesn't mean that there won't be more pebbles in your shoe - the trail is covered in them. Th
