The Real Meaning to Giving More Deeply

I woke up this morning with this message “Give more deeply of yourself.”  Immediately, my ego went into over-drive with my victim story.  “What more can I give.  I already have so much going on.  What more do you want from me?”  Thankfully, the loving guidance of my essence came swooping in to remind me that to give more deeply of yourself isn’t the same as doing more!

So the question was, “How could I give more deeply?”  As I took a moment to reflect, I saw how tired I have been now that the holidays are over.  When night comes, I feel wiped out.  I reflected on how some of my silly bedtime rituals of tickle bugs and other important nonsense with the kids have been cut way back.

What I was reminded of was presence.  Maybe you are like me, where you find you have moments of presence and then it slips away. Suddenly you find yourself thinking about what else is on your list of things to do.  Rather than stay in the moment, you find your mind going off into some other place.

Others of you may rarely find presence if you are like I was, an ultimate multi-tasker.  As a parent, I found it challenging not to try to do twenty things at once.  There is so much going on at once that you become good at juggling or sink.  Many of you may feel like that is also the reality of your job as well.  This is where you get addicted to living at a pace that keeps you away from your presence.  Then you find yourself in those rare spare moments that you have, checking your email rather than just being present.

This is why it is important for all of us to ask in each moment “Am I giving deeply of myself?”  In other words, are you fully in the moment?  Are you playing full out in the everyday components of life?

Don’t forget about yourself either.  Are you giving deeply to yourself as well?  Are you listening to your needs?  Are you listening to your feelings and how they are loving guiding you?  This is where many fall short.  You simply aren’t willing to give yourself this loving attention because your ego had you believe there is too much other components to your life that need your attention.  What you are really saying to yourself is that your needs are not that important.

Now ask yourself this, if your needs aren’t that important, can you really be present?  You can’t. If you can’t be present, you really can’t truly give of yourself as you desire. Your needs are going to find some way to be addressed, unconsciously or consciously.  If your needs must find an unconscious way to be met, you will find your efforts being sabotaged.

This is part of the transformation that is occurring this year, to let go of old habits that keep us away from living more fully connected to ourselves.  You give more deeply when you are fully present with yourself first.  Being present with yourself is what allows you to be fully present with others.  This is how we truly and deeply connect.  It is through present connection that you tend to find the fun just by truly being where you are.

You have so many gifts and so much love to give!  Allow your emotions to guide you back to your truth. Your truth has huge plans for you!  What you are hearing allows you more fully understand your essence, which in turn, supports you to truly share of yourself.  You can be more open, more exposed, and more vulnerable.  In doing so, you will find yourself more deeply able to give in ways that bring you the joy and fulfillment your heart craves!

Here’s to you giving of yourself more deeply!  Please share the ways that arise within you to share of yourself in this loving and generous way below.  By giving of yourself through sharing, your heart may inspire another to give more deeply in the same way!

With love and appreciation for your giving heart -

The All-Encompassing Gift of YOU!

You are a gift!  You know this right?  At the same time, you might find yourself with temporary amnesia with the holiday season here.  Why?  Well, besides the fact that you may feel pulled in twenty different directions due to the holidays, you are also in a season of darkness (at least for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere).  This means that besides contending with shortened hours of light, a part of you is being lulled in by the darkness that exists within you.

The darkness within you is not bad or negative.  It is simply those parts of yourself you don’t want to address.  In our day to day living, you are most likely not going to want to address this part of you.  Maybe you feel you don’t have time to address this part of you or perhaps you judge that this part of you exists.   Add in the hustle and bustle of the holidays and these parts of you are sure to go ignored.  Yet these parts of you that desperately want your attention are likely going to make a holiday appearance –    like it or not.   Here are some common examples of what you may be feeling inside you:

• You feel saddened from missing someone you were once close with that is no longer in your life.
• You feel saddened and frustrated that you cannot afford to give as much as you would like.
• You feel like a spoiled brat because a part of you has so many things you want to receive.
• You feel undeserving to receive a gift.
• You feel stressed out by all the demands the holidays bring.
• You feel alone.
• You feel like Porky the Pig because you haven’t been eating well or exercising.
• You feel angry or depressed because you aren’t getting along with a family member and they are ruining your holidays.

Wowza, the above examples that are coming from your ego don’t give you that warm holiday sensation does it?  Some of these feelings are harsh and judgmental, others feel downright sad.  This makes it even more likely that no one, not even your consciously evolving self, wants to pay attention to how that part of you feels.  Yet the darkness beckons us to reconcile these parts that we have left out of our light.

To reconcile, you want to listen to your feelings and understand their meaning beyond that which the ego is demonstrating to you.  Your ego wants to berate you to keep you small because smallness equates to protection in the ego’s world.  Yet as you learn the higher consciousness messages to all that you feel, you know that these messages are trying to tell you that these aspects of yourself need your love.

That part of you that feels undeserving is begging for self-recognition.  The part of you that feels like a spoiled brat simply needs to be shown by you in your day to day life how special you really are.  The part of you judging your weight wants to be nurtured and taken care of rather than have your needs cast aside.  You get the point now don’t you?

The holidays are about celebrating and calling forth the light within you and within the world.  This is what miracles are made from and they can occur within you as well.   By bringing the light into those parts that you would rather remain hidden in the dark, you call for a miracle from within.  This is the miracle of unconditional love.  By more fully giving this to yourself, you are going to be able to more fully give unconditional love to those most important to you.  In doing so, you have learned to create the inner peace, joy and presence we all crave – especially during the holidays.

You are the all encompassing gift of light.  Remember this by bringing forward the light within those dark aspects of you.   As you do, the more light you bring into the world.  What better gift can there truly be than more light and love?

Wishing you a special holiday season filled with love and joy for the miracle that you are!

Dance to Your Heart’s Song

I know turning 40 usually means checking out wrinkles and freaking out about aging.  I see the fine lines (some deeper than others truth be told) but they just seem so boring compared to the song that is in my heart that wants me to jump in and DANCE with reckless abandon!   There is a song that is playing in all of our hearts.  Some of you may be just hearing it for the first time, while others of you know it so well, yet you’ve been hesitant to go  all in or maybe you haven’t felt adequately prepared to learn a new, more intricate dance move that is an integral part of your song’s full expression.

There is a way, however, to figure out what is being called for you to do next that is coming from your song.  All you need to do is being willing to see the one area of your life that your heart has longed to create change toward and hasn’t been able to make it happen.  This is your next step, the next move for you to master.   You do this by following these steps on how to more fully      dance to your heart’s song:

1. List out the reasons and ways you have tried to make that change happen that didn’t work.
2. Honestly reflect how those attempts have made you feel.  Oftentimes we get into a story that turns us into the victim or poor me.  If you see this, this is great for two reasons:  a) because you are not denying it & b) because that is where you have room to claim more of your power.
3. In what way would it feel good for you to take more responsibility toward creating the change that you desire?
4. What is your song leading you to do next?
5. How does it make you feel when you listen to your song’s lead?
6. In what way do you try to tear apart and void out messages in #3, 4 or 5?
7. What is getting you closer to your goal, following #2 & #6 or sticking with #3, #4 & #5?
8. Claim and affirm your choice.  Set up reminders that support your new decision and new level of responsibility toward your life!

Here is how this has played out in my life recently.  I have longed to create greater financial stability and savings in my life.  Even though I tried to live consciously regarding how I spent money, I didn’t feel like I was getting where I wanted to when it came toward saving for our retirement and college or being able to comfortably afford international travel with my family.  My past failed attempts made me feel like saving and investing weren’t my forte and so I put them on my husband to worry about, after all, he did that naturally =)!  “Plus,” I told myself “I trust I will always be taken care of by God/Universe.”  Yet, deep down,  a part of me knew I wasn’t doing my part.

When I asked myself how I can begin taking more responsibility, I came to realize the power I had to set an even stronger tone in my family toward living in greater alignment with our core desires and values.  When I listened more fully to my song, what I heard was an even stronger desire to serve and lead at a new level.  This made me feel energized, alive and excited about my path.  My song gave me even greater clarity.  Right then, I knew the old reasons that told us we were already doing enough were really just excuses.  My husband and I set new boundaries around our spending AND that we would affirm our songs by asking each other two questions each night: Did you serve today?  Did you lead today?

I can’t tell you how inspiring it feels to take action toward living in even greater alignment to our hearts’ songs.  We celebrated by going down to Lake Michigan with a bottle of wine, chips and salsa, talking for hours.  It was a super inexpensive date indeed, but one of our best ever!

No matter what age you are, you too can listen in more closely to your heart’s song.  Listen to what it is reminding you about yourself and how you can live your life.  Then DANCE full-out along with it!

Dancing together in love, leadership and service,

 

PS: Ever read Oriah Mountain Dreamer’s “The Dance”?  I have it in my office and encourage you to check it out for additional inspiration to DANCE to your heart’s song!

 

 

Move out of Control and into Flow

Oh my goodness, so many of us love to control, plan out, and analyze– all of which are great qualities to have. Yet, let’s face it, too much “thinking things through” can also lead to stagnation and even boredom. Rather than letting our logical, rational brain have full control of our lives, we need balance.

To achieve a more balanced state, we need to consciously choose to shift gears from always pushing or forging ahead to opening ourselves up to a state of allowing, which is often called “flow.” From a flow state, there is room for spontaneity, intuition and creativity to come forward.

If this sounds too touchy-feely, or all fun and games, it isn’t. Although a flow state is known to occur for more artistic types, athletes, sales people, even doctors have shared how they enter a “flow zone.” In this zone, you feel “on,” where you trust what is coming forward from inside of you and lose yourself in the process. The result is you are more effective at what you do.

My guess is you are wondering “How on earth do I make that happen?” Well, here’s the deal – you can’t make flow happen. Flow is an authentic state that cannot be forced. There are, however, ways you can encourage more flow states in your life.

Here’s my top 3 Ways to Shift from Control to Flow:

#1 Listen to Your Feelings

I can’t say this enough – those who are in the know when it comes to personal growth recognize emotions as a HUGE, POWERFUL ALLY! Too often times, you ignore or set aside feelings because, well, you don’t like what they are saying. Let’s face it, feelings, especially those that challenge you, can occur at inconvenient times. A much easier approach is to ignore, deny or try to rise above what you feel. In doing so, however, you are not aligning yourself with your authentic self. Instead, you are subconsciously judging and unconsciously choosing fear. Your fear is in what these feelings mean to you, or what they bring up within you that you don’t like.

There is another choice, which is to listen to your feelings from a higher consciousness perspective. From a higher consciousness perspective, challenging feelings are viewed as a signal with an underlying message that is present to support you. In this way, you can stay true to how you feel without getting lost in fear or ego drama. What this is doing is actually moving your internal energy from a place that doesn’t serve and stifles you to one in which your internal energy flows in congruence with your higher self.

From a higher consciousness understanding, your feelings are present to get you back in alignment with your authentic self. Challenging feelings indicate you are buying into fear more than your truth. They also give you the direction you need to move back in alignment with your authentic self. By learning to follow the higher consciousness message, you create internal balance. From this place of internal balance, there is room for passion, new insight and energy to come through – all of which are present to support you to live from a flow state more and more often.

#2 Prioritize Your Essence

Listen to your essence – that authentic, wise, love-filled part of you. What does that aspect of you desire? This part of you often gets ignored (sometimes for years!). Let’s face it, you have responsibilities that are always seeking and winning your attention. I am not talking about being irresponsible here. You still have things that need to get done yet, who says joy, play and your essence can’t come first?

#3 Practice Allowing

What do you like to control or plan? What would it be like for you to let go of the grip a bit? Rather than go, go, go how about rest, observe, listen and witness? Make room for spontaneity and see what life can bring you.

Just compare the two pictures and decide which feels more fulfilling, abundant and power-filled.   Allow your essence to be your guide that you trust over your ego’s need to control and in turn experience more of you and the life your heart desires to create!

Thank you so much for connecting with me here. I am happy to be on this journey with you!

Living Emotionally Conscious Together -

QUIZ: HOW MUCH OF YOUR ENERGY GOES TOWARD WANTING TO BE LIKED?

The desire to be liked, well-thought of and respected is a common desire in women and men alike.   However, too many of you are likely giving away too much of your energy and yourself in order to have this desire met.  This desire may be consistently present in all areas of your life, or just focused on one area such as with those you interact with at work, your friendships, your intimate partnership/marriage or even random encounters with others.    When this occurs, it means you have an energy leak on your hands that is keeping you away from fully expressing your highest version of you!

Take this quick quiz to determine how much of your energy you give away to be liked and what this means for you.

The following questions should be answered with the following choices:

Often (The majority of the time)

Occasionally (About half the time)

Seldom (Rarely – less than a handful of times a year)

1. How often do you alter your behavior or words to come across as more likeable or accepted by others?
2. How often do you worry about what you said after having a conversation with someone?
3. How often do you feel misunderstood?
4. How often do you feel a need to self-protect?
5. How often do you feel concerned about others potentially judging you?
6. How often do you struggle with remaining present and focused on another when conversing because you feel self-conscious?
7. How often do you feel apprehensive to share how you really feel?

What your responses mean:

If the majority of your answers were responded with “Often,” this means:

Your energy is subconsciously geared toward fear of your true self rather than self-love, acceptance and approval.  To live your life more freely and at peace, it is time for you to address what you really feel about yourself.  Ask yourself: What are you judging about you?  What aspects of yourself do you not fully understand and therefore hide?  It is time to unravel the shame you carry toward you!

If the majority of your answers were responded with “Occasionally,” this means:

Certain situations are energy leaks for you.  Although you have worked through some blocks in the past, there is still a core aspect that needs your attention and nurturance.  To understand more about your ego block, ask yourself: What types of people or situations trigger your defenses?  What is the sense of lack that you believe in during those moments or situations?  Although you don’t feel completely drained by your energy leaks, it is important for you to find the leak in order to have the internal energy to empower you to be your highest version of you!

If the majority of your answers were responded with “Seldom,” this means:

You are living your life authentically because you have very few times when your energy leaks toward fear.   This means you know and are connected to your inner wisdom and truth very intimately, which is a beautiful way to live!   As a person committed to consciously evolving and growing, you will still encounter fears.  Keep utilizing F.E.E.L: Feel Every Emotion as Love to guide you back to your truth when those occasions happen or you find yourself in an emotional “growth-spurt!”

Additional Optional Recommendations

If the majority of your answers were “Often,” personal support would be a great option for you.  Currently you have core beliefs that are more aligned with your false self rather than your authentic self, which personal support can help you shift.  If you are interested in personal work with me, please fill out my evaluation form and I’ll get back to you shortly. http://michellebersell.com/evaluation-form/

If the majority of your answers were “Occasionally,” you won’t have energy to give toward your potential, when your energy is being leaked.  Nip your energy leaks in the bud through my F.E.E.L. Virtual Mastery Home Study Program.  This is the perfect program to support you to pull the blinders away from your ego blocks!  http://www.michellebersell.com/feel/

If the majority of your answers were “Seldom,” keep doing what you are doing!  Find continued inspiration through events (both live and virtual) with like-minded people to keep your spirit recharged and energized!

Live Emotionally Conscious – Live Exceptionally Well,

How to Gain Greater Inner Confidence

I have the ability to appear confident when inside, I don’t feel that way.  It sounds like a good thing, but is it?  The period in my life in which people commented the most about how self-confident I was, was actually a time in my life that I felt the most insecure.  Here lies the problem – when you are trying to project the image of confidence, you don’t feel it inside you.  In fact, whatever you are trying to project about yourself comes from a place of lack within you.  On the other hand, when you truly feel confident, you don’t worry about projecting confidence.  You feel confident and that is all that matters to you.  Energetically, this makes a world of difference as to how well you are able to make deeper, richer and more meaningful connections in the world.

So, today’s tips are not about how to fake confidence but to really gain inner confidence.  Inner confidence allows energy to flow from you.  The result is you authentically feel good about who you are and the gifts you bring to the world through your presence, without even trying!

4 Steps to Gain Greater Inner Confidence:

1. Take risks – Be willing to do things you aren’t good at, where you lack skill and where you have the opportunity to learn.  That is after all what expansion is all about and what your spirit really enjoys experiencing.  It is a part of living that leads to exhilarating moments that make you feel alive.  Ego worries about messing up or being perfect, shut you down, make life boring & predictable and not fun =(

2. Don’t judge or compare yourself to others.  Judgment is ego based.  We all have to start building up a skill.  Image if you saw a baby learning to take her/his first steps and you were critiquing the kid on not doing it right or well.  Keep this image with you as you take your next step toward your heart’s desire.  Remember notions such as  “ I should know how to do this by myself” or “This should be easier” are ego messages.

3. Don’t try to project something that you are not feeling: This is an advanced step to take when you want to truly live emotionally conscious and authentic.  Your tendency is to pull out the false self when you feel fear.  We all do it.  Instead, allow yourself to be who you are in that moment.

One of my long-time mentors is Sonia Choquette.   I remember a story she shared a long time ago.  She was doing a presentation in front of business people, which were typically not the type of people interested in having a psychic speak.  She started off by saying to them “You scare me.” In turn they responded, “You scare us!”  They shared a big laugh and most importantly Sonia’s willingness to be authentic allowed them to connect.  If she would have pretended to be confident, the energy would have been much different.  The reason is because there would have been unconscious defensiveness that would have inhibited the relationship formed, as well as the degree participants were able to receive Sonia’s guidance.

4. Honor what you authentically have got going for you: Another advanced step is to set aside what you feel you lack and focus in on that which you are authentically feeling that feels supportive.  Maybe you aren’t feeling confident, but you feel excited or perhaps more attuned to others, even humble.  Honor the gift this feeling brings forward within you and the uniqueness of the connection it offers.

What these steps do is provide you with ways to authentically gain inner confidence.  What you are doing through these steps is choosing your essence/authentic self over your fears and ego blocks.  The more you do, the more inner confidence you generate, the better you feel and connections are made easier and effortlessly!

How to deal with annoying people

Get the latest Flash Player to see this player.

Ahh, we all encounter someone from time to time that pushes an internal button and, like most of us, you will find the person annoys the heck out of you.  Recently, I was asked to appear on FOX to answer how to address this common, yet irritating issue.  To find resolve, follow this 5 step plan to let go of your internal button:

1. Understand Your Reaction: What is my reaction about?  What am I defending?

2. Me, be defensive?: You defend that which feels vulnerable.  What is that vulnerability in you that you don’t want others to see?

3. Acceptance: How can you apply greater acceptance and  non-judgment to that vulnerablity?  What is the benefit to you having this vulnerability?

4. Tell the Difference between Truth vs Falsehood: What about having that vulnerability isn’t true that feels inappropriately put on you?

5. Honor More of You: By acknowledging the truth vs the falseness to what is pushing your button, you are able to honor yourself more fully.  In other words, you create further acceptance of yourself, which allows you to more honestly discriminate what is and is not your truth.  As you share your acceptance and clarity with the person who once annoyed you, you will find your internal button diminishing right before your eyes!

Live Emotionally Conscious & Exceptionally Well,

Letting In New Possibilities by Letting Go of the Old

Get the latest Flash Player to see this player.

Last week I was at Fox doing a quick interview on what I could have talked forever about – Fears & Ego!  Why?  Because I see how even the most conscientious, spiritual people can get tripped up by these two aspects of your emotions.  If you want your life to feel more ideal or make a change, yet can’t seem to make it happen, it is because you are stuck in the “emotional stone-ages.”

Here’s the deal – when you are stuck in the emotional stone-ages, one of two things happen:

1.   You deny that your negative feelings and fears are impacting you, even though you are struggling to make your life more ideal.

OR

2.   You realize you are experiencing negative feelings or fears, yet you feel these aspects of your emotional self hinder you.

Guess what?  The reason why you feel this way is because your perspective regarding your emotional well-being is entirely based upon your ego.  It is your ego judging your feelings and fears.  The result is you cannot get the momentum you need when your perspective remains tied to your ego.

If you want to change your life for the better, you’ll want to have the clarity, energy, passion and personal power that your emotions give you to move forward faster and with greater ease.  Choose this year to be the year you view all of your feelings, fears and ego through the lens of love rather than fear, and see how different your life becomes!

To help you make these shifts, always feel free to email support@michellebersell.com with your personal questions.  I’ll post them on my blog (your personal info excluded) in the order they are received.  Another option is to join my F.E.E.L. Virtual Mastery Program, which you can find out more about at http://www.michellebersell.com/feel/

Love is always the path  you can trust to open yourself up to new possibilities!

Live Emotionally Conscious – Live Exceptionally Well,

Reflection of 2010 and into 2011

The end of the year is a wonderful time to become a witness to the life you have created.   By reflecting upon the miracles/gifts as well as the areas that challenged you in 2011, you open yourself further to the conscious creation process.  Many people like to jump in and start focusing on goals or resolutions for the new year.  Doing so without reflection, however, will not give you the momentum you need to make lasting change.

To begin with, focus on these major aspects of your life listed below.  Make a column as to how each component felt to you in 2010 and where (if any) you have deeper desires toward that aspect of your life in 2011.

1. Spirituality – How do I feel in regard to a sense of spiritual connection?  How well am I able to trust?
2. Relationships – How do my relationships feel (currently) as well as how you want them to expand upon in 2011?
   1. Intimate
   2. Immediate Family (ie kids)
   3. Extended Family
   4. Friends
3. Career – What have I brought forward this year & what do I want to expand upon
4. Physical Health – How do I currently feel in my body & is there a way I can better serve my body in order for my body to better serve me?
5. Emotional Well-Being – Do my feelings and fears feel supportive to me? Are there still areas where I feel emotionally weighted down at times, if so what are the triggers?  What can I do to allow my emotions to serve me in 2011?
6. Sense of Self – In what ways do I demonstrate love and self-worth currently?  Is there more authentic expression ready to be revealed in 2011?
7. Free Time – In which ways that I currently spend my time serve my highest good?  Is there more ways to bring out sensual expression, pleasure and joy in 2011?
8. Home – How does my home currently support my highest good?  Is there a greater desire to have my home more fully support me in 2011?  If so, in which way?
9. Other – Anything specific you may want to address not covered in the other categories – add here

By looking at your successes in 2010, you can identify what worked for you, how you are motivated and the external components that supported you to move forward.  Being a witness to, rather than judging, where you remain challenged, you gain greater insight by asking yourself the following:

A.  What do you believe were factors that negatively impacted your ability to move toward your desires?

B. How can you empower yourself better to get the support you need?

C. Are you setting yourself up to succeed, as you did with previous successes?

D. Do you need further guidance?

Next, prioritize what has the greatest significance to you at this time.  This is important because you want the majority of your energy (at least 80%) going toward your top 3 desires.  (This may only be 2 desires if the ones you are undertaking are major life changers!)  Allow the remaining to be longer term shifts that you give some energy toward ( the remaining 20%) and see what small steps you want to take throughout the year to give some momentum to those desires.

For your top priorities, utilize the information gathtered from questions A-D to address what additional support  you need to move forward.  Begin each week with reflecting upon what your next step is toward reaching your desire.  Many people get lost in trying to figure out how to get to the end result when you truly only need to know your next step.  Establish a day each week to weekly reflect upon whether or not how you are going about moving toward your desire is working.  Tweek your plan for the following week given that information, along with determining what your next step is.  By doing this weekly check-in, you are going to find two things:

1. You are more attuned to your needs and challenges
2. You are given the guidance you need to take another step forward by staying attuned to yourself

Don’t forget to honor each week the small shifts that are created.  The shifts in which you know of even though others cannot yet see the external results,  are the most significant.  This is the real route to create life altering shifts!

May 2011 be filled with the blessings you have deep within your heart!

Live Emotionally Conscious – Live Exceptionally Well,

The Gift of the Season – Access Your Divine Spark!

Silence…ahh, sweet silence.  The silence I crave is not simply slowing down.  You know as well as I do, you can slow yourself down, while your mind keeps going.  During the holidays, for many of you, silence is hard to come by as life seems overly full (as do our bellies).  Others, on the other hand, may feel the depth of silence, when life feels less full than you would desires it to be.  In either case, neither describes silence.  You can have time to yourself, yet your mind can be filled with too much noise.

In the northern hemisphere, where I currently live, the length of darkness we are entering into supports us to create inner silence.  This cannot be done by simply slowing yourself down.  Creating inner silence is a type of miracle in and of itself.  I have been practicing meditation 6 days a week, for over eight years.  Obviously, I am no yogi, yet I have enough experience under my belt to know what a gift true silence from within is.  Sometimes, you grasp the silence for just a few fleeting moments.  Other times, you can be swept away by the gift of silence without realizing how much time has elapsed.  During the holidays, the later type of silence is few and far between.

Just as nature has a period in which the external conditions lie dormant in order to prepare for transformation beneath the surface, so do we.  The darkness outside, is beckoning for you to go to the darkness inside and be swept away by the silence residing within you.  What you will find is a light guiding you, telling you more about your true path and the next steps for you to take.

Whether you are Christian or not, you have likely heard of the Christmas song, “Silent Night.”  I have heard and sung the song so many times myself, yet rarely paid attention to the point being made.  Silence is where miracles are born from and occur.  Silence is the core of the potential that awaits within you – the same as it does for humanity as a whole.

Silence is a gift that cannot be created, yet can be found.  No matter what your spiritual beliefs are, silence is a true gift the season offers.  This is the time of year when the Divine Spark within you is waiting to be found at a deeper layer.  Take this time to go within and discover what miracles are waiting to manifest through you.   Only you can decide if the silence within you is worth finding.

Here’s to celebrating the silence within!

Happiest of Holidays to You!
