We are always creating space in our lives to help make us feel secure. Often times when we are trying to feel peace or manifest something in our lives we forget to make space for it. We fill it with stress or relationship that are not serving us, leaving no room for peace. We must make a conscious effort to make sure we are vessels with the space for peace and prosperity.
During the spring our thoughts turn to embracing the birth of new life and new ideas and cleaning out our closets and sweeping off our driveways. It is also a good idea to reflect on the quality of the relationships we have. From our family, friends to who we follow on social media. Cleaning out, or letting go of relations that don't serve us can help bring us closer to peace of mind.

Part of being human is that we don't always feel or act our best. We feel guilty if we have a no bones day. But we are not perfect super humans and sometimes need to just give ourselves permission to not be Ok. As long as we are responsible with our energy when we are out in the world. It also reminds us to give a little bit of grace for those we come in contact with, when the too aren't at their best.
Our spirit, just like our physical bodies require a balance. Homeostasis is the bodies natural way of getting that balance. For spirit that balance is peace. If we respond to our emotions they can tell us whether or not we are in alignment with that peace.

A challange for 2022 is to think differently, by seeing things from a new perspective. Pehaps by doing so we can move away from insanity.
Whether we are sitting in church or yelling at traffic, our lives are in an ongoing prayer. The words and thoughts we use are constantly going out into the universe.. Being mindful of this will help us align more closely to peace.
During stressful times we all have our go-to's for coping. The trip is to find a balance between coping and what may cause you more harm than good.
The mind is willing but the body is weak happens a lot especially when we get older. Often times we aren't always do the things we used to. Accepting this, listening to our bodies, being mindful, and asking for help is okay and great self care.
During stressful and challeging situations I'm always reminded of the serenity prayer. Knowing what you need to change or just accept in those situations go a long way to achieving peace.
By releasing and letting go of energy that isn't serving us, such as negative encounters or unforgiveness, we allow room for more opportunities for blessings to flow into our lives.
There are a lot of different diets out there with different pros and cons. There is no one size fits all method. The main goal of course to to create a healthy lifestyle. Similarly this can be true for religion. There is no one way to connect to spirit. The main goal is to be at peace.
