Slow Down...Something Deeper Wants to be Seen

Slow down...something deeper wants to be seen.

Pause...look up, lift up. Inquire within.

Breathe deeply and thank the universe for breathing you into being. You are here for an important reason. Everyone has purpose. Everyone comes from love and returns to love.

As I sit quietly, I take a deep breath in and I call back to me my scattered energies. I bring my hands gently to my heart and take another deep breath in and I let it all go with a loud, audible, sigh...ahhhhhhhhhhh. Do it with me. Deep breath in through the nose and out the mouth with a loud sigh...ahhhhhh. Be present with an intention to be in your heart-center with a renewed sense of awareness. Your higher self, your soul will do the rest.

Be present in the here and now. I place my hands on my heart and I whisper out loud, "I love you, Angela. I love you, Angela. I love you, Angela. You can not say, "I love you," to yourself, too many times. As you say the words, "I love you," to yourself, feel the warmth of your hands on your heart and your heart begins to soften and open.

It is a healing practice to begin your day in love and gratitude for your life. When we come from love, practice love, we abide in love, love reflects back to us in everything we do.

I begin to write and connect from this peaceful, centered, and loving place. A safe place, where my heart is open wide and words filled with the vibration of love spill forth from within the dark, secret places, held sacredly in the chambers and corridors of my heart. They can no longer be hidden and must be shared.

The season is changing from summer to fall. The temperatures have fallen fast and I will ride the waves of summer's last heat as fall's lower temps naturally roll in over the course of the next several weeks. It is a time to savor the harvest from all that was planted in the spring. A time to gather together in a sacred circle. Beat the drums within your heart. Allowing the vibrational, healing, frequency that resides in your heart to bypass the thinking mind. Light the fires within. Breathe. Dance. Celebrate. Connect within to all that you love and hold dear.

The wind kicks up around me as I write from my beautiful, bright, orange Adirondack chair in the garden. A nod from Archangel Gabriel to keep writing and spending time outside in nature no matter the season. She holds me in a sacred space for writing for she is the scribe of the universe. She is the direction of the north on the medicine wheel. She is the wind and carries our thoughts. She encourages me to write words filled with the vibrations of love.

The breeze I feel on my face is so tender and dear. The branches on the trees crack as they brush up against one another. I find myself in a vortex surrounded by the falling and spiraling crimson and golden leaves as they dance freely on the wind and circle down to the ground around me. I am a part of this universal dance as are you.

The trees let their leaves go with a deep knowing, an open heart, and complete trust that this is the way to fully surrender and trust in the next step. The leaves will fall gracefully to the ground and will transform into nourishment to feed the earth.

Fall is a gorgeous time of year and the falling leaves are 1,000's of beautiful reminders of our own power to let go, surrender, trust, and transform all that does not serve our greatest good. The daylight becomes shorter as we transition and head towards winter.

Reconnect to the sacred stirrings held deep within your knowing and live the wisdom and rhythms of the earth, the sun, and the darkness. S l o w down and savor your life and the changing of the seasons.

Embrace the love, light, and darkness held within. You are so loved.
