Awakening

4/2/2019

Welcome to April!

The theme of awakening keeps coming to me in my own life, spring, friends, and clients.  I am going to devote April to this.

Before we begin, I want you to know you don’t need to do anything nor to you lack anything.  Think of a seed. It is perfect - it is not better or worse than the plant. The plant is not better or worse than its flower.  The fruit is not better or worse than the flower.

In whatever stage you are in, you are perfect, just like a seed. And, like a seed with attention, water, food, and sunlight you naturally grow or evolve.

So, awakening is going to follow that paradigm.  You are perfect now as you were yesterday and will be tomorrow.  How you decide or don’t decide to grow or evolve is based on how much water, attention, sun, and nourishment you have.

So let’s dig in.  The first practice I offer is as you awaken each morning and do not look at your phone first.  Instead, take a moment to focus on your heart space. Focus your attention on the physical place where your heart is.  Then ask yourself: what do you need today? How can I be of the greatest service to myself and others today?

Throughout the month I will ask you to focus on your heart because it is where you give and receive love to others and yourself.  The heart will tell you the truth from the perspective of love. Love, however, is not always warm and fuzzy. Sometimes love is angry or boundary pushing or self protective or found in other forms.  I ask as we begin, you accept what your heart is telling you without judgement. There is no pressure for action, that will come when you are ready. But, releasing self judgement is essential.

With light,
Julia
