Creating Your Dream Life
/I've been pondering what it takes to create a dream life. It seems that as a society, we spend a lot of time in the future, dreaming and visualizing about what our life could be rather than embracing the present moment. Over time, I have realized you don't have to like your current circumstance but you can befriend it. Once you do this you will begin to transcend it.
You see it is not really about the dream, rather it is about where we are right NOW. Our mastery lies in how we move through this miraculous and messy life. A year from now, a week from now, a day from now you will wake up to something new. It might be the realization that the $20,000 bonus you worked so hard for is now yours or maybe it's the birth of your child. It might also be something that you didn't ask for like a chronic disease or the ending of a relationship. As different as these life circumstances look and feel there is a common thread that links these together. The fusion lies in how we embrace and navigate not only the joy but also the fear and frustration of life's unexpected circumstances. Because in the end, all we have is this moment. Living a life beyond your wildest dreams isn't about nothing bad ever happening rather it is about everything happening.
This month I'm offering 3 techniques that when practiced regularly support you in seeing life's miracles within the challenges, releasing expectations of what life should be, learning how to surrender to the present moment and how to access a knowing deep within yourself that you are taken care of and worth all the universe has to offer you. As you practice these techniques your dream life begins to take shape and your resilient and radiant presence becomes a beacon of light in this world.
Embrace Community - Find a community that supports, elevates and inspires you. These could be people you've just met or that you have known forever - but what is important is that when you're in their company, you feel like your living your best life.
Prayer - Prayer is a beautiful way to begin or end your day. When you ask for help from the heavens and hear answers from GOD, your angels, and ancestors you feel strongly supported by something bigger than yourself. You feel showered with love and deeply supported from above.
Meditate - Meditation helps you to connect to the heavens that exist within you. It is a precise technique for resting the mind and clearing both the concious and unconscious thought forms that cumulate and often clog our intuition. When your own trash is emptied you are better able to access inner peace, clarity and your intuitive knowing.
