I was recently asked that question while flying to my niece’s wedding. The gentleman sitting next to me on the plane travels often and said he asks everyone he sits next to that question.
Before I answered him, I thought, “I wonder why he thinks I’m successful?” 🤔
And then, I answered the first word that popped into my head, perseverance—the ability to keep going when you get knocked down. I often feel like I’m failing, and I continue to keep going anyway. Most days, I feel like one of the wobbling weebles that gets blown over and pops back up!
Interestingly enough, he was surprised at my answer…
In our fast-paced and increasingly disconnected world, finding ways to ground ourselves is essential for maintaining balance, stability, and a sense of inner peace. Grounding allows us to anchor our energy and presence in the present moment, fostering a deeper connection with our bodies, the Earth, and our spiritual essence. Below are my best practices for grounding your body, empowering you to navigate life with clarity, stability, and a strong foundation. Nature provides a powerful source of grounding energy. Spend time outdoors, whether it’s in a park, forest, or by the sea.
In the journey of life, there are times when we may find ourselves feeling disassociated from our body, life, and even our relationships with friends. It is a state of disconnection that can leave us feeling lost, empty, and disconnected from our spiritual essence. However, within this challenge lies an opportunity for growth and self-discovery. By embracing a spiritual perspective and exploring practices that foster reconnection, we can navigate this disassociated phase with grace and emerge with a renewed sense of purpose and connection. Here, we will delve into strategies and insights from a spiritual perspective to help you realign and find harmony within yourself and your world.
We are living in unparalleled times. If we continue focusing on the scary negative, we will surely see even more of that. Lately, I noticed I was feeling more down. An endless stream of sadness everywhere I turned. Cancer in young ones, honking angry people, and frustration that ‘things’ don’t look how I want them to look. I know the drill. When I’m feeling extra down, it’s time to regroup. Remember SSS! STOP, SURRENDER to the moment, and SWITCH the story. STOP. Stop and go inward. I take a few deep breaths calming my nervous system, and STOP whatever mind tunnel I’m allowing myself to go down. SURRENDER. Surrender to the NOW moment.
I’ve mentioned before for a while now I’ve been praying that I follow the highest divine design of my life. You may have been with me online or in our monthly group, Elevate, when we’ve done this together. There is no question that things shift when we sincerely ask for this. People and circumstances most often leave your life, sometimes even abruptly. Things may not always look or feel great when you are going through this shift of letting go. Although you’re surprised when it does happen, in the long run, you look back and can generally see the WHY. I continually remind myself, though, that nothing is ever wasted!
Living in harmony means living in a state of balance and flow, where your actions and choices align with your inner truth and values and where you experience a sense of peace, fulfillment, and joy in your daily life. While this may seem like an idealistic concept, it is actually a practical and achievable goal that can have numerous benefits for your physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
