I’ve been doing quite a bit of gardening lately. One day, I glanced over at the beautiful red tulips, opening their petals in the bright, warm sunlight. I stood there in awe, admiring the connection between the light and the flower. The more warmth the flower receives, the more it opens.

And it struck me — the same happens with us.

The more love, nourishment, care, and warmth we feel, the more our bodies begin to relax and open, allowing cosmic energy to gracefully flow through us and into our lives.

That is the true connection with the Divine for me, when the mind lands softly in the body and magnifies the feelings of sacredness, there is no other destiny for us but simply to thrive.

I want to gently invite you into a moment of self-reflection:

 

– How do you nourish and cultivate the feeling of warmth in your body?

– How often do you feel it throughout your day?

– How many times do you pause the judging, worrying mind and redirect its attention towards your body – and that greater feeling of love?

– How often do you hug yourself on the inside?

– How often do you consciously breathe deeply into your belly?

 

We are bundles of energy walking on this planet.
The question is: what frequency are we choosing to tune into?
Because the energy we choose will be reflected in our outer, physical world.

So next time you wake up, before jumping out of bed, pause and take a few seconds to feel the openness and tenderness in your body.

When you’re cooking dinner, pause to take a deep breath and feel into appreciation and care.

As you walk around your home, workplace, or outside, tune into the feeling of love rooting through your feet and into the Earth.

We simply need to allow ourselves to vibrate as that – because the truth is, we are that.

The mind had simply gotten used to positioning itself in the seat of a victim, believing that it is not enough, constantly lacking certain qualities and traits, worrying about the future, dwelling on the past, regretting and missing. Let’s redirect the mind’s attention to something greater, to the feeling of total acceptance and love in the body and watch how our life unfolds.
