Do not judge a book by it’s cover, the old saying goes. This means never to judge someone on first impressions. Hard not to do , I know. But I would like to add to that saying–
Do not judge a book by it’s cover - nor - even after having read the page of contents should you decide whether or not to proceed further.

Often the most pleasurable of souls takes time to discover, to fully flourish in the eyes of another.

So by this I mean always give some-one a chance, they are just as good as you. And even if your soul and theirs can never be friends, you will have learned from the experience, and you will be a better read yourself!

I have it back
That which I thought I had lost
I hold it in my hands
Cupped in my warm security
I hold it to my lips
It gives me breath
That which I hold
Is a sense of myself.

2008
The Year of Infinite Possibilities

Welcome to my first entry for 2008. The number 8 is the infinity sign, and this year promises to be a year when your dreams can move into reality and your aspirations become the breath in your lungs that gives you strength each day.

Unbind yourself from the negative speakers who say that you cannot achieve that which you want to. Yes you may have to work hard, try many different ways and continue to believe undoubtedly in yourself even though you may feel you have failed.

But it is better to do one small thing every day to get you nearer to joy, nearer to your dreams than to spend time convincing yourself that your dream is impossible.

Remember:

As you walk your own unique path, you experience Truth, Love and Freedom.

May 2008 be the year when you discover how truly powerful you really are.
May joy underpin your decisions, and love light your path.

I am one with the Rhythm of Life

Have you ever felt yourself beset with difficulties? Have you spent the day struggling to get your thoughts in order, to focus, to get tasks done?

Often, due to; technologies (computers, cars, mobile phones….)
highly processed foods and food additives (that are far from their natural state)
and other people (who are angry, in bad form, sulking, agitated…..)
we find ourselves out of balance with the rhythm of life.

We are not in the flow of rest, relaxation, nourishment, stimulation, activity, fun and play, love and laughter.

Instead……..
We are constantly bombarded with sights, sounds and smells not always of our choosing, not to mention emotions, as we watch television, or have interactions with others people and their emotions.

We loose touch with our base, our sense of groundedness, sometimes of who we are.

Take 3 minutes to focus yourself, nourish yourself.
Breathing deeply, imagine you are on an island. By yourself.

You are lying in the shade, comfortable, a slight breeze washing over you. You can hear the ocean, and your breathing is in tune with the ebb and flow of the waves.

You can see the ocean, and the colour pours into your soul, communicating peace and freedom, life and possibilities.

Spend a few moments like this, breathing and relaxing, relaxing and breathing.

You are one with the rhythm of the sea, one with the Rhythm of Life.

Affirm to yourself:

I am one with the rhythm of life.

Finding Balance in Your Life

What is on the scale of your life?
Right now draw a scale, leaving room to be able to write down the components that make up your life.
On one side of the scale have the title: WORK
Right down everything that you consider falls in this category

On the other side have the title: REWARD
This refers to your free time, how you spend your time when not working.
Is this scale balanced?
If not, which side out-weights the other?
What steps can you take to introduce more balance? Is there something you can do less of, or something you can do more of?
What is stopping you from having balance in your life?
And what steps can you take to resolve that?

Now for a new scale.
Draw a scale that only highlights the benefits that you receive from WORK and from REWARDS (eg, knowledge, new experiences, activities…..)
Is the scale balanced between work and rewards when it comes to the benefits you receive from both?
Again examine what small or big changes you can take to introduce more or something or reduce more of another to help you have balance.

Affirmation:
I find balance in my life. Through work and through rewarding myself I have vibrancy and peace of mind in all that I do.
