Living On Purpose
You can either live your life by default, or you can live your life on purpose. When you live on purpose your day is more structured and significant. When you live by default things may or may not happen for you. It is entirely your choosing.
At the end of your day are you feeling like not much has gotten accomplished? Are you worn out and exhausted? It’s time to get out your planner and start scheduling your day, because if it’s not on the schedule it doesn’t get done. Don’t let your life just happen, watching the days slip away like an innocent bystander. Take the wheel and start driving. You’ll find more magic happens when you are the driver than merely a passive passenger.
The Power Of Kundalini Yoga
Kundalini is known as the Energy Yoga which empowers us to release any stagnant energy sitting at the base of our spine, which is connected to the chakra system. When we are feeling anger or fear, Kundalini Yoga can release this tension with quick movements. The intention is to let go.
Typically, more sedate forms of the Yoga discipline is promoted in modern day practice, which tend to focus on deep breathing, flexibility and stretching of the muscles and joints. Kundalini is the polar opposite of this approach. It combines meditation with cardiovascular and muscle strength building exercises.
There is a major caution with this kind of Yoga, since it is best to avoid it if you have any serious back, brain, neck or shoulder conditions. Also, do not do Kundalini if your pregnant, unless the session is specifically geared towards this under the guidance of a reputable teacher. Always consult with a doctor if your unsure and be aware of what your body can do and can’t do in the present moment.
Easy Ways To Master The Art Of Meditation
Meditation is recommended for everyone. Not only does it offer incredible benefits for clarity of mind and overall well-being, it’s also a powerful spiritual tool to help us navigate our lives. But, getting started with a meditation practice can be hard!
I often hear people say they can’t meditate, or they tried meditating, but they became too distracted. “I can’t seem to clear my mind,” they might say. Many beginners struggle with this idea that in order to ‘properly’ meditate, one must sit motionless, eyes closed, and clear your mind of all thoughts. Failure to do so means that you have ‘failed’ to meditate.
The truth is, meditation is called a practice, because it really does take practice. Actually clearing your mind is not an easy task. I suggest people begin a meditation routine in one of two ways: guided meditation, or nature meditation.
Thoughts On Depression
Clients sometimes call me regarding their own, or a loved one’s depression. Of course, I am not a medical practitioner and as a matter of course I always recommend that the caller seeks professional advice. However, a psychic reading can sometimes help the customer to unmask what might lie beneath their ‘blues’ from a spiritual perspective.
Lately, one cannot help but notice the media attention that mental health issues are being given here in Europe. Companies here are encouraged, for example, to acknowledge the mental health issues of their staff. The topic also receives much attention in the media, even with the help of celebrities and royalty.
Revisiting The Past, To Appreciate The Future
When I left Western New York (WNY) a few years ago, I felt liberated! I was elated to leave the area I felt was holding me back from my life. It had been my lifelong dream to live in the state of Florida. I was correct, because since I left WNY and relocated to the Sunshine State, my life has changed drastically for the better.
I had since been postponing a trip going back to visit WNY. I was going to go last year, but decided against it. I felt I was not yet ready. So, I recently took the plunge, made the plane reservations before I could change my mind, again. I finally went back for what was originally supposed to be a one week trip, but my guides advised me instead to only go for five days. I am glad I heeded their counsel.
Lost In A Dream
Even if we don’t always recall our dreams, we do have them every night. These are encoded messages from the most honored area, the higher self. There is no negative impact connected to this particular source of information. It is simply an individual guidance system that can help lead us into successful areas, or steer us away from potential danger zones. Once we acknowledge that we react from our thoughts and emotions, and understand what the end results are, we are then able to assist our own motives and create a change in the course we have set out for ourselves.
Dream interpreters can potentially evaluate, analyze and understand what all the signs, symbols, colors, and so on, may mean for us, pertaining to how we are conducting our daily lives. Dreams can hold a wealth of any type of information.
Crystal Singing Bowls
Crystal singing bowls, not to be confused with their similar cousins Tibetan prayer bowls, are made from various kinds of quartz crystal, or fossilized water. If one considers that a large percentage of our bodies also consist of water, it’s easy to see why crystal bowls can create a deeper resonance within us, compared to bowls made from other materials.
In our busy world it’s easy to ignore pure, natural sound – which is one of many benefits of crystal singing bowls. Cultures around the world have known for millennia about the therapeutic properties of music, and more specifically, unique notes or tones. In some Hindu and Buddhist traditions it is believed that the Universe begins and ends with the sacred sound Om.
