Think about this.
Most people spend more time and energy taking care of their hair than they do taking care of their Soul.
It sounds crazy. Right?
But look around…
So many people are suffering these days…
With anxiety and overwhelm.
With doubt and uncertainty.
With grief and loss.
And yet:
Most are doing almost nothing to help themselves...
to heal
to regain wholeness
to find ease and joy again
But, it’s not their fault.
We live in a world that is so obsessed with success and appearances and distractions…
that it has become far too easy to forget what really matters:
A real and lived connection with our truest essence
(whether you call it your Soul or Source or Spirit or God)
And without that lived connection, we suffer…
With anxiety and overwhelm
With doubt and uncertainty
With grief and loss
No, the current world affairs are not responsible for our brokenness.
We are.
And, we alone can fix it.
(and more easily than you may think)
So, here’s my invitation...
Take an inventory.
Look in the mirror.
And ask yourself (and honestly answer)…
“How much am I sincerely investing in my connection to what really matters?”
And before you let the mind’s excuses take over…
“I’m too busy.”
“I don’t have the discipline.”
“I just don’t have time.”
Ask yourself this…
Do I make the time to watch TV?
Do I make the time to post on Facebook?
Do I make the time to brush and floss my teeth?
Because, if the answer is yes, you *can* make time for YOU.
for meditation.
for yoga.
for contemplation and prayer.
In fact, take a moment with me now...
to stop.
to breathe.
to rest back into the presence that lives behind your eyeballs.
(really, try it)
It’s when we invest in our souls as much as we do in our hair and teeth and mindless entertainment…
Miracles happen.
(that's worth saying again: Miracles happen)
I know, because I’ve seen it thousands of times.
