No.1, acknowledge that your presence has impact. Acknowledge that how you conduct your life makes a difference to everyone.
Knowing that your life impacts us all, consider what areas of personal improvement you could be focusing upon. How can you apply your wisdom and knowledge to uplift your own behaviours and habits? Change starts with you, in your home, now!
Watch the language that you use with others. Are you putting people down? Are you talking in a derogatory way about others? Are you being judgemental simply because you’re hurt in some way? Be honest with yourself. Honesty with self, leads to healing.
What are you telling other people to do? What advice are you continually giving out? Is there a repetitive tone to your words? What fires you up and what are you passionate about? Once you know, then ask yourself, if you’re applying that same advice in your own life.
Walking your talk is a non-negotiable essential when living the path towards an enlightened life. If you don’t mean it, don’t say it. If you do mean it, say it and express it, in a way that creates greater peace and unity, rather than greater fear and separation.
Slow down. Slowing down your thoughts and actions enables you to take greater care with what you say and do. When you’re rushing about, you’ll make mistakes, you’ll slip up and you’ll potentially let yourself (and all of us) down.
Slowing down enables you to be mindful. Mindfulness is akin to being centered and thoughtful. From this space you do greater good and less harm. From this space healing can flow, in all directions at once.
Consider your greatest values in life. What matters to you most? Write down your top 3 values and then put them up on a wall, where you can see them every day. Do your best to actively live your values. Notice what a difference it makes to your flow.
Practice using your authentic voice. After any form of meditation, start talking or writing. See how different the words and expressions become. Where are your words coming from, head or heart or from an integrated head and heart, moving as one? How has your tone changed?
Start meditating daily. Find any form of meditation that appeals to you and fits in with your lifestyle. Make it a priority, just as you would with exercise or having your morning coffee. Meditation drops head to heart, personality to soul, which is where you experience a state of oneness. All beauty and good works come from this space. No one gets mad when they’re meditating.
Focus on health. Make it a priority to research and follow good physical, mental and emotional health practices.
Become more spiritually focused. Dive into ancient texts. Dive into modern texts. Discover your meaning in life.
Think and act multi-dimensionally. Just because you can’t physically see or touch something, doesn’t mean that it’s not there.
Surround yourself in an uplifting environment. Keep your personal space high-vibration, clean and clear.
Offer your expertise and knowledge to another. Help others, as you would love to be helped yourself. Offer your unique skills and feel good, as you do so.
Try not to be hurt when others turn away from you. Honour free will and accept the choices of those close. Practice acceptance.
Rejoice in being wrong. Learn from others and from your mistakes. Make learning and growing through experience a top priority.
Grow your empathy and compassion for all life forms. Imagine what life must be like to walk in another’s shoes – reality checks!
Become actively involved in causes that are meaningful to you. Use your unique talents to uplift and assist.
Stop complaining and start moving towards making the changes that will relieve you of pain and frustration. Take back your power!
If no one is doing what you would love to do, then start it yourself. Don’t wait for someone else to do it. You have the power.
Sing and dance every day. Move your body. Become familiar and at ease with its rhythms.
See beyond grudges and old acts of spite. Not everyone will see (or live) their life the way that you do. That’s to be expected and that’s OK. Live life true to your flow and ever-growing love. Relax more and stress less.
Embrace differences. Learn from others and allow them to learn from you.
Share yourself. The more that you give of your natural essence, the more that you’ll feel the beauty of life expand within.
Embrace the animals. When you look into the eyes of non-human life forms, see the soul (just like you) looking back at you.
Be strong. Be vulnerable – All at once. You can move through anything in this life and learn from the lessons, as you become more loving, rather than jaded.
Have a spiritual focus and practice that connects you with soul, the divine and the magical, invisible, mythical dimensions.
Support the arts. A society that upholds the arts is an enlightened society of the highest order.
Support your local makers and businesses. Lift them up and become one yourself, if this path way calls to you.
Love and nurture nature. Be in nature regularly. Remember, that you ARE nature.
Be the example and role model to us all. Use your precious life path to display and express what an awakened, physically connected, conscious, productive human thinks like, acts like, looks like, feels like, sounds like and simply IS.
Support your fellow sisters and brothers of the light. Do what you can, in your way, to contribute to the betterment of society.
Enjoy your human life. Take no moment for granted. Each day is an opportunity to love and be loved.
Embrace your origins. You past has been your proving ground. Bring your past into your present to super-charge your future.
Be mindful with what you consume. Stay in balance. Partake of all the pleasures of life. Pass on the joy to others.
Be kind (to yourself and others) and lend a hand and a shoulder to lean on, when you have the opportunity to assist.
If you feel that you’re becoming too sensitive to pain, pull back from watching too many news reports. Receive your information once and then set to work uplifting your life and your immediate environment. The positive flow on ripples will affect us all.
Give out compliments freely. If you think something nice, then say it as well! You could just make someone’s day. And you’re own.
Come up with your own list and acts of incredible lightness. Be the one who shows the way. Let humanity know that you care.
I trust that you’ve found this blog post encouraging, stimulating, practical and heart-felt. Together (as one) through the vehicle of our own lives, we do make the most incredible difference. One soul is every soul. And you are that soul. Use your talents wisely ♡
