My first day off in a long while has finally arrived that is filled with sunshine and summer vibes! I am finally feeling healthy, with a big open heart and high af frequency support from my guides, nature and the universe. ✨️I am filled with a sense of gratitude.✨️ Through self-reflection the last few months- I have gained so many insights into the unrealistic expectations I place on my family, husband, house, yard, job, health and all my “conditions” for happiness. When I am at my emotional lowest, I tend to generalize negativity, perceiving everything as dreadful, terribl, horrible , no good… past and future, blaming both myself and others for my uneasiness. These thoughts and mindset seem almost comical when I am in a lighter mood, like today but I genuinely believe these thoughts at the time and in the present moment they gift me insight on how to choose happiness. I have discovered numerous benefits to being the observer to my thoughts… zen practice asks us to be in a state of wonder even in our darkest moments…so in this quiet, reflective space between my past and future selve I can ask… who am I becoming? Am I ready to up level? Am I prepared to flow with source? Do I believe in my worthiness of feeling good? What if everything is conspiring for my bliss? Can I ALLOW myself to be happy and successful and receive love? Yes. I can… I practice this Today as I listen to bird song and embrace the sun on my cheeks and breeze in my hair and above all feel gratitude for my life… exactly as it is.
