But first, alignment

Before you take any action,​​​​​​​​

before you plug into anything, or anyone, else,​​​​​​​​

plug into your Self. ​​​​​​​​

Calibrating to our own truths, to our heart, and Soul, our values & priorities, our own inner knowing & the guidance ever present within us, is the most powerful, potent, profound, and

* productive * (yes, productive) action we can take.​​​​​​​​

For ourselves - ​​​​​​​​

and others​​​​​​​​

No amount of time or work or effort or action can make up for, or replace, this singular act.​​​​​​​​

With alignment comes clarity ​​​​​​​​

With alignment comes ease and flow​​​​​​​​

With alignment comes joy and inspiration​​​​​​​​

With alignment comes love​​​​​​​​

With alignment comes confidence from the calm knowing that you have all the answers you'll ever need within you, and that you have the capacity to deal with whatever comes your way​​​​​​​​

And you do. ​​​​​​​​

Committing to this simple, daily act will shift your life profoundly, and in ways you have only begun to imagine. ​​​​​​​​

Take 15-20 minutes every morning to check in with yourself. ​​​​​​​​

It needn’t be meditation, but it can be. ​​​​​​​​

Work with what you have and where you’re at. ​​​​​​​​

(I don't meditate, I do this in present silence over my coffee)​​​​​​​​

Bring your awareness to the present moment​​​​​​​​

Breathe deeply​​​​​​​​

Sink in​​​​​​​​

Let go of distractions​​​​​​​​

Focus on the small things - the cup in your hand, the comfort of where you are sitting, the warmth of the room...​​​​​​​​

Create space and time for yourself to show up in your truth, without judgement or criticism or denial​​​​​​​​

Listen and be present with what comes up​​​​​​​​

And make it your primary intention to bring what you say & do, how you show up in the world, into harmony with who you truly are.​​​​​​​​

💖 💫 ✨​​​​​​​​
