How are you directing your energy today?

This is a powerful one. it is again, around the theme of awareness, presence, directing our attention in a kind and compassionate way. we are humans. we are evolved to thrive in kindness and compassion. how can you support your energy? sending big energy 💜 to you.

day 10: Asteya "I am enough"

Day 10: Asteya

practice on astray, non-stealing + abundance:
take a pause in your day when you feel a strong desire.
i want this. i feel like i need to buy this really nice new sundress.. or you want someone to call you back, like now. (that’s me)
and to place your hand over your heart. 
repeat to yourself, or even outloud: i am enough. i am abundant. at least 3 times.
take a few deep cleansing breaths.
i am all good. i am full of love and light the energy of the entire universe.

thank you for sharing your abundance + light  
have a beautiful day friends!

Day 5: Ahimsa

1 minute loving kindness meditation practice for today: 
Sit or stand comfortably. 


If you feel comfortable where you are, close your eyes and place your right hand over your heart. Then your left. 
Take a few deep cleansing breaths. 
Call to mind an image of yourself. Observing yourself, as a beautiful human, deserving of love. 


Repeat this mantra (phrase) 5 times
may I be happy, may I be healthy, may i be peaceful, may I live with ease.

And now call to mind all of humans, all beings everywhere. Hold them in your thoughts as you repeat the mantra: 
may you be safe, may you be healthy, may you be happy, may you live with ease.

May this practice serve you, and may your practice serve all beings everywhere. 

the light in me honors the light in you
