“In essence, if we want to direct our lives, we must take control of our consistent actions. It’s not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently.”~Tony Robbins

Although the real events of the solar eclipse, lunar eclipse and Venus transit are behind us, the effects on our lives linger and continue in full force. For many it felt (and still feels) like being catapulted into a ginormous growth period. It not only feels that way, it IS that way.

If you normally take ‘baby steps’ forget it! You took a astrologically imposed LEAP and that leap may have knocked you off-balance and caused your head to spin. It’s important when this happens to take time to reorganize, get your feet back on the ground and care for your spirit. It’s time to fill up all those places where you released while you were flying through the air. If you’re feeling tired, depleted, stagnant or stuck it’s time to get back to basics, fill up and pamper your spirit!

We all know how important it is to take care of our physical bodies. Eating right, physical activity and yes even getting enough rest to recharge and refuel are all a part of caring for the body but what about your spiritual essence? Your spirit needs the very same thing in a slightly different format to stay healthy and in a state of ease. How are you caring for your spirit? What are you doing each day to nourish your spirit and soul? Just as the body needs to eat, move, ‘do’, rest, recharge and fuel, your spirit needs to play, create, heal, rest and be calm.

When you go for a massage you pamper your the body and it can certainly be a spiritual experience but how many of us can afford to get a massage every day? Massaging and feeding your spirit is free and all it takes is a ‘meditation a day’! The challenge of course is making the time to sit down and DO IT but I guarantee the more you do it the better you’ll feel, the more space you’ll have and the faster you’ll move through a difficult growth period. Your ability to create is enhanced and by creating more space for yourself, you create space for your dreams to manifest. Meditation massages and feeds your soul by giving you a spa like moment of peace. You step out of the problems and challenges of daily life and in doing this your overall perspective will change.

On an energy level EVERYTHING changes when you incorporate daily meditation into your schedule. You heal and expand as spirit, bring more of your energy into your body and re-establish your footing. It allows you to refocus your mind and recharge your body as well. Now I clearly hear you saying how you don’t have time but who’s going to make the time for you if you don’t? It is not enough to take a few minutes in the shower. Your spirit is committed to you until it decides to step out of the body but are you committed to your spirit? Have you ever noticed what happens when you trip and fall or have some sort of accident? In addition to skinning your knee, bumps and bruises you become acutely aware of your surroundings. Why not sit down and quiet your mind, clear out what is not you and say HELLO to your spiritual essence instead of being catapulted to do so?

If your truly want to direct your life and create it the way YOU want it massage and feed your spirit every day. As Tony Robbins says in the opening quote “…It’s not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently” and that includes taking time to recharge and refuel both body AND spirit each day! What are you waiting for? Schedule your spiritual massage right now. No time like the present!~Shine Your Light Debbie

“Destiny grants us our wishes, but in its own way, in order to give us something beyond our wishes.”~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Destiny is in YOUR hands! You have the power to create it but perhaps what you think your destiny is and the vibration you put out is merely a small piece of your soul purpose! What if your destiny is BIGGER and more wonderful than you are imagining and you are limiting your creativity by trying to control the outcome?

Control over your destiny comes in many forms. It could be constantly worrying or dwelling on past failures. It comes in the form of those little thoughts of doubt and fear that creep in. It might even be that at some point in your past you decided you couldn’t ‘have’ anything more than what you have. The negative thoughts which run through your head have the power to limit your destiny and take you off your path just as positive thoughts have the power to help in manifesting your dreams.

It doesn’t really matter what form it comes in or where the control comes from; Controlling your destiny does not work. It is steeped in resistance, effort and well, control. It is precisely that control that causes you to get stuck and feel like a hamster on a wheel going round and round. Your spirit knows where you are going and having a stranglehold on your growth merely prolongs you getting there and often times limits creativity and takes you off your path completely. Imagine what could be if you didn’t limit yourself! Imagine if you let go of HOW to get there and instead followed your intuition and inner guidance allowing things to effortlessly unfold? What if the “destiny” you “think” you’re headed towards is actually more profound, expansive and beautiful than you are imagining?

Your Spirit Knows!

“…you can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something – your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.”~ Steve Jobs

Beyond logic and thought there is your spirit and spiritual essence. You came here with a purpose and your spirit knows how to fulfill that purpose. You must trust that your spirit knows and will guide you. Why limit yourself by trying to control what is infinitely more than what you could imagine? All it takes to create your destiny is to put it out there! It takes trust, a bit of healing and allowing your creativity to flow freely. Your spirit knows this. In fact YOU know your spirit knows this! How do you know you know? When you’ve been knocked off your true path, there is effort, negativity and the feeling of being stuck. You know you are headed in the right direction when it feels good. You know when it feels right. You know it when you stand bold and tall with confidence. You know when you feel like nothing can stop you!

Let go of trying to control your destiny. Put the dream of what you want out there with the intent that whatever happens is for your highest good. Dream it, will it, let it go and allow it to unfold. Follow your intuition and trust in spirit. Let your destiny come to you by allowing it to unfold! Embrace your true purpose and let it shine! Embrace your goodness and know that all things happen for a reason. Imagine what life would be like if your destiny is actually MORE than what you imagine!~Shine Your Light Debbie
