Calmness always comes after the storm

Recently, I went hiking in an area close to my home. As I walked, I was captivated by the stunning beauty surrounding me. To my right, the Yuba River flowed, creating a spectacular sound due to the strong current, and to my left, every few feet, I observed stunning waterfalls flowing down from the rocks and the greenery. I couldn’t help but reflect on how calm always follows a storm. It had been raining for many days, and during one of those days, a big storm hit, with the wind making such a terrible noise at night that it felt like it would never end.

Isn’t it true that life’s challenges sometimes make us feel as though they will never end, pushing us into fear and often into despair? We must remember that “this too shall pass”, and the Bible specifically states in 1 Corinthians 10:13: “God will not allow people to be tempted beyond their abilities and will provide a way to escape.” The key is to always have faith and trust in God or your Higher Power, knowing that God did not give us a spirit of fear but instead endowed each of us with power, love, and a sound mind to face any situation that comes our way.

In times of difficulty, I encourage you to be ready by consistently depending on your Higher Power, trusting that He will never leave or forsake you. He will always be by your side, and all you need to do is open your heart to His guidance and protection. This involves maintaining a daily connection through meditation, prayer, and devotion. By doing so, when challenges arise, you will be inwardly prepared to confront them with courage and faith.

Here are some ways in which you can maintain that daily connection:

Meditation: Dedicating time each day to quiet your mind and emotions will bring about inner peace and joy.

Prayer: Seeking wisdom, strength, and the resolve to fulfill God’s purpose for you. Additionally, praying for others is crucial.

Devotion: Trusting in the Supreme Power and understanding that He is always offering you unconditional love. Appreciating all the blessings, including the difficulties, as they contribute to your spiritual growth.

Spiritual Nourishment: Engaging in the practice of receiving, at least, weekly spiritual and inspirational messages that serve as a guiding light to help you focus on divine truth.

Positive Attitude: Having the willingness to focus on positive thoughts, using language that is uplifting and maintaining a mindset geared towards success.

Each one of these ways to maintain a daily connection with the Divine, is a powerful reminder that no matter how turbulent things may seem, calmness eventually follows. It’s like the quiet after a heavy rain, where everything feels renewed and still. It’s comforting to think that no storm, emotional or otherwise, lasts forever.

How to Create a Purposeful and Joyful Life

“Live in the present. The past is gone; the future is unknown — but the present is real, and your opportunities are now. You must see these opportunities; they must be real for you. The catch is that they can’t seem real if your mind is buried in past failures, if you keep reliving old mistakes, old guilts, old tragedies. Fight your way above the many inevitable traumatizations of your ego, escape damnation by the past, and look to the opportunities of the present. I don’t mean some vague moment in the present — next week or next month, perhaps. I mean today, this minute.”~Maxwell Maltz

As I ponder this quote, I believe it perfectly captures the essence of this time as we embark on a new year. It offers a chance to completely release the past and concentrate on the present moment to build a fulfilling future, a life rich with purpose and happiness.

To be able to accomplish this, you must be willing to give your very best right now and every moment of your life. Here are some ideas to consider:

1.  First, you must start with Clarity of Purpose:
Knowing what you care about deeply—whether that’s relationships, creativity, helping others, or pursuing a particular goal—gives life a sense of direction. When your everyday choices and actions reflect your fundamental values, you experience a deeper sense of stability and satisfaction.

2.You must engage with passion:

Participating in activities that make you lose track of time—be it work, hobbies, or creative endeavors—can provide a feeling of joy and fulfillment. These pursuits help you stay present and aligned with your purpose.

3. Be willing to seek Meaningful Relationships:

  • Building and nurturing deep, supportive relationships provides emotional richness. Sharing your journey with people you trust, and who share common values, strengthens your sense of belonging.
  • Acts of Kindness: Helping others or engaging in acts of service can create a sense of joy and fulfillment, as it connects you to a greater purpose.
4. Engage in Personal Growth:
  • Learning and Evolving: Continuously developing yourself—whether mentally, physically, or emotionally—brings satisfaction and can give life a sense of forward momentum.
  • Embracing Challenges: Purposeful growth often requires stepping outside your comfort zone, tackling new challenges, and learning from setbacks.
5. Express constant Gratitude:

Taking time to notice and appreciate everyday blessings can significantly elevate your experience of joy. Gratitude shifts your focus to the positive aspects of your life.

6. Have an Attitude of Self-Compassion and Balance:

  • Nurturing Yourself: Taking care of your physical, emotional, and mental well-being is essential for a joyful life. This involves setting boundaries, practicing self-compassion, and giving yourself time for rest and relaxation.
  • Work-Life Balance: Balancing responsibilities and leisure, work and play, gives you space to enjoy life without feeling overwhelmed or burnt out.
7. Contribute to something larger or more expansive
  • Making a Difference: Whether through your job, community involvement, or creative endeavors, contributing to something bigger than yourself provides a sense of purpose and meaning.
  • Legacy and Impact: Thinking about the long-term impact of your actions—how they might influence others or the world—can give a sense of continuity and purpose.
8. Develop your Spirituality and Inner Connection
  • Connection to a Higher Presence: Whether you refer to it as God, a Higher Power, or the Universe, this spiritual connection can infuse your life with peace, purpose, and joy.
  • Embrace the beautiful journey within through the daily practice of Meditation.

Ultimately, a life filled with purpose and joy is about creating a balance of internal fulfillment and external engagement. It involves clarity about what truly matters to you, staying connected to the people and things that bring you happiness, and constantly evolving to meet life’s challenges with an open heart and mind.

The Best Gift …

As I contemplated holiday giving, I pondered the concept of a universal gift that could profoundly affect both ourselves and humanity, inside and out. It became clear to me that this gift is Love. To offer this gift of love, we must begin by releasing the behaviors that obstruct the flow of love. As the end of the year approaches, we have a wonderful opportunity to engage in introspection with the aim of opening our hearts to greater love by letting go of anything that hinders it.

Let’s examine some barriers to love, so we can substitute them with appropriate actions:

Criticism can be replaced with Acceptance. This is an opportunity we encounter daily and can be challenging. Yet, if we genuinely commit to choosing acceptance over criticism, we open ourselves to a more compassionate and understanding perspective, allowing us to see situations and people in a new light. It requires patience and dedication. Yet, the rewards are profound, leading to personal growth, improved relationships, and a deeper sense of inner peace.

Unforgiveness can be transformed into Forgiveness. This transformation is not always easy, but it is a powerful and liberating process. If we reflect on the fact that we all have made mistakes and wish others to forgive us for our missteps and shortcomings, we can extend the same grace and mercy to those who have wronged us. This mutual exchange of forgiveness not only heals relationships but also fosters a sense of peace and emotional freedom within ourselves.

Fear can be overcome with Courage, a powerful force that resides within each of us, waiting to be awakened. We have been given a spirit of courage, an innate strength that empowers us to face challenges and adversities with resilience and determination. By acknowledging and harnessing this courage, we can transform fear into a stepping stone towards growth and success, enabling us to navigate life’s journey with confidence and grace.

Disrespect can be converted in to Respect. At any moment when we find ourselves treating either ourselves or others in an unkind, dismissive, or hurtful manner, it is crucial that we recognize the need for change. This involves cultivating a mindset that prioritizes kindness, empathy, and understanding, and focuses on nurturing an attitude that honors and respects the inherent dignity and worth of every individual.

Unhappiness can be converted to Happiness. By actively engaging in positive thinking, practicing gratitude, and surrounding ourselves with supportive and uplifting people, we can transform our emotional state. We have the ability to choose to be happy regardless of the circumstances by recognizing that happiness is a decision we make moment to moment.

Inner peace can counteract a lack of peace. It acts as a soothing balm for the soul, helping to alleviate stress and anxiety that often accompany a turbulent mind. The mind, much like the body, requires moments of rest and rejuvenation to function optimally. Meditation, therefore, emerges as the most effective practice we can offer ourselves. It serves as a gateway to turn inward, allowing us to explore the depths of our consciousness and connect with a profound sense of tranquility.

I invite you to reflect on these ideas and determine if they might serve as a stepping stone in your life to enhance the qualities of acceptance, forgiveness, courage, respect, happiness, and inner peace, allowing you to embrace love more profoundly.

My gift for you this holiday season is twofold: To offer you my unconditional love and to share “the way of love” from Corinthians 13:4-8: “Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.”

8 Tips to Transform Your Life from Within

To be able to transform your life from the inside out, a good start is to take a journey of loving your True Self. This involves acknowledging your true nature as a divine being, fully embracing your spiritual essence. This journey leads to genuine happiness. As you learn to appreciate your own divine essence, you will also recognize it in others.

Have you ever considered how much you truly love and respect your True Self? When we reflect on our ability to honor our True Self, we often find that we do quite the opposite. For instance, we tend to undervalue ourselves and our inherent worth. We also lean towards being people pleasers, seeking their approval, fearing the repercussions of saying no, or worrying about their opinions of us. We simply lack self-belief. We also harm ourselves by not treating our bodies with care, allowing negativity into our minds, or failing to acknowledge our emotions.

It takes strong will power to let go of habits that may harm our bodies, such as smoking, poor eating habits, and lack of exercise. Yet, if we initiate change from a place of self-love, we become more open to it.

It also takes determination to cultivate a winning attitude and to maintain a positive mindset. It’s crucial to become aware of our behavior and thoughts so we can choose to adjust our attitude. The same idea applies to honoring our emotions. We need to take time to honor our feelings so we can be in harmony with all.

As we learn to love our True Self, we empower ourselves to make better decisions and enhance our physical, spiritual, emotional and mental well-being. Embracing Self-love enables us to overlook our flaws, fostering self-compassion that we can also extend to others. Discovering how to love our True Self is one of the most powerful ways to transform from within, offering truly remarkable benefits.

Here are 8 Tips to Transform Your Life from the inside out:

  1. Do a self-analysis to identify areas in your life where you can become more attuned to your True Self. This might include negative thinking, neglecting your body, fear of saying “no,” fear of failure, self-criticism, people-pleasing, procrastination, and any harmful behaviors that may be affecting you. Be willing to let go and adopt new Self-loving behaviors.
  1. Be authentic. Stay true to yourself. Express yourself with the joy of being you. Be congruent with your thoughts, words and deeds. Release the fear of others’ opinions or reactions. Embrace the freedom to be who you are!

  2. Adopt an I CAN mindset. Keep in mind that every thought you have is shaping your future, as your experiences are crafted by your thoughts and emotions. You have the power to alter what you are creating by changing your mindset and feelings. Embrace a victorious outlook, an I CAN attitude. Say YES to life.
  1. Believe in yourself: Trust yourself and let go of any self-doubt and self-denying behaviors. You have wonderful God given talents and abilities that make you unique. Share them with the world.
  1. Communicate with clarity and conviction. Express your truth with kindness and respect, and be open to the possibility that others might not agree with you. This doesn’t mean you’re incorrect; it’s simply a different viewpoint.
  1. Give yourself permission to be happy: Happiness is a choice, a conscious decision that you must make every day. Embracing happiness means allowing yourself to let go of negativity and focusing on the positive aspects of life. It involves recognizing the power you have to shape your own experiences and choosing to see the beauty and joy in the world around you. Your divine nature is bliss, a profound and inherent state of joy and contentment that resides within you.
  1. Be decisive. Begin creating a new version of yourself today. Deciding to change is the first step toward transformation. It involves making a deliberate decision to take charge and mold the future you desire. The key is to take consistent, purposeful actions every day, no matter how small.
  1. Seek divine guidance: Your Higher Power is ever-present to lead you. Ask and it is given! Remain open and receptive to the guidance than can come through a friend, a book, a dream, meditation or your intuition. Affirm: With divine guidance, I make wise choices that improve my life daily.

Remember, transformation is not a one-time event; it’s an ongoing process. Each choice you make can bring you closer to the person you want to become. By focusing on the inside—your mindset, beliefs, emotions, and actions—you will create the foundation for lasting, positive change in every area of your life.

5 Attitudes to Embrace Life with Courage and Faith

Every one of us encounters ups and downs in life. It’s easy to feel happy and enthusiastic when things are going smoothly. But how do you handle challenges? Some people ignore the problem, pretending it doesn’t exist, which can unfortunately lead to it escalating and becoming more serious. Others may focus on blaming others, justifying themselves, or acting as a victim. This approach certainly won’t bring about a solution; instead, it leads to more suffering, despair, or disappointment. Some might expect others to solve their problems and feel let down when that doesn’t happen.

How can you approach these difficult times in the healthiest way? Here are 5 mindsets you can approach life’s challenges with confidence and faith:

1.     Resilience. It is the ability to take full responsibility for your life and to remain strong in all circumstances. Remember that we create everything with our vibration. Our thoughts, language and actions are creating our reality moment to moment. If you do not like something that shows up in your life, be humble in recognizing that you have an invitation to change something in yourself. In prayer, ask for guidance.

2.     Say yes to life. It’s a powerful invitation to embrace the fullness of existence with openness and enthusiasm. To say yes to life means to accept and engage with the experiences, challenges, and joys that come your way. It’s about living with a mindset that welcomes possibilities rather than resisting or fearing them.

3.     Be present in each moment, allowing yourself to experience both the highs and lows with a sense of curiosity and courage. It’s about giving yourself permission to explore new opportunities, take risks, and step out of your comfort zone. This attitude can lead to personal growth, deeper connections with others, and a richer, more fulfilling life.

4.     Embrace change and uncertainty with a positive outlook. Life is inherently unpredictable, and by adopting a “yes” mindset, you’re more likely to adapt and thrive in the face of the unexpected. It’s a way of acknowledging that while you may not have control over everything that happens, you do have control over how you respond.

5.     Faith. Trusting in a Higher Power can be particularly transformative in overcoming obstacles or dealing with adversity. By choosing to face challenges with faith, you’re more likely to find creative solutions and maintain resilience. It’s a reminder that even in difficult times, there is potential for growth and new beginnings.

Ultimately, embracing life with courage and faith is about embracing the richness of human experience with an open heart and mind. It encourages you to savor the present, pursue your passions, and build meaningful relationships. It’s a call to live fully, to make the most of each moment, and to find joy in the journey of being alive.

6 Tips to Build a Brighter Tomorrow

During my most recent monthly inspirational class, I emphasized the importance of resisting the urge to play victim or point fingers when we encounter difficult people or situations. Instead, we could uncover the lessons these experiences are meant to teach us. The key is to be open to exploring these lessons and to have faith in our ability to handle them, ultimately emerging as stronger and better individuals.

For years, I found myself trapped in a cycle of victimhood, pointing fingers and casting blame without seeing the valuable lessons hidden within my struggles. Each challenging experience was a missed opportunity for growth, masked by my own criticism and denial. It wasn’t until I sought professional help that I understood the chaos in my life was self-inflicted, and I needed guidance to break free from it.

Gradually, I realized that instead of adopting a victim mentality or pointing fingers at others, I needed to take ownership of my life by being open to changing my behavior and making more thoughtful decisions. I also discovered that I didn’t have to navigate this journey alone; God was there to guide me and provide the wisdom I needed.

Embracing the right principles daily has been a transformative force in my life. I recognize that to achieve a fulfilling live requires persistence, consistency, courage, determination and to give your best effort each day. The incredible rewards you reap manifest in harmony, well-being, and a promising future.

Here are some tips on how to create a brighter tomorrow:

  1. Your point of power is in the now: Louise Hay says that “your point of power is always in the present moment, where you plant the mental seeds for creating new experiences.” Choose to build a brighter tomorrow by embracing a positive mindset today, nurturing uplifting thoughts, and speaking words that inspire and uplift.
  2. Right Action: Life is a journey, so why not navigate it with intention and integrity? By committing to the right positive practices today, we lay the foundation for a better tomorrow.
  3. Positive Attitude: Make it a constant goal to cultivate essential qualities such as adaptability, spiritual enlightenment, courage, and relentless perseverance. Remain steadfast and committed to your goals, no matter how challenging the journey may be. By nurturing a positive attitude, you equip yourself with the tools necessary to lead a fulfilling and resilient life.
  4. Strive to becoming a better version of yourself every day: Everything in the future will improve if we commit to making an effort now. Every small action we take today, whether it’s practicing kindness, or investing in our personal growth, sets the stage for a brighter, more promising tomorrow.
  5. Deepen your relationship with God: Engaging in meditation and prayer daily can profoundly cultivate your faith and deepen your devotion. Embrace the opportunity to connect with God through these practices each day. As you consistently incorporate them into your life, you’ll increasingly experience divine support, protection, and guidance.
  6. Engage in good deeds: Adopting this perspective transforms previous mistakes into stepping stones for a positive journey. Rather than dwelling on past errors, redirect your efforts towards personal growth and fostering acts of kindness.

Imagine a world where communities flourish, and individuals lead fulfilling lives—all because we chose to act with intention and purpose now. By dedicating ourselves to these efforts, we not only enhance our own lives but also contribute to the collective well-being of future generations. Our commitment today is the foundation upon which a better world will be built. So, let’s take those steps, however small they may seem, and create the future we envision.

7 Key Practices to Keep a Positive Attitude

To read this month’s Love in Action Newsletter, click here

With all the chaos happening in the world, in our own countries, and all around us, it can feel overwhelming to maintain a positive outlook. It’s clear that life’s challenges require us to summon courage, optimism, perseverance, and faith.

Maintaining a positive attitude involves several key practices:

  1. Focus on spreading positivity: Make it a daily habit to refrain from negative remarks. While it may be difficult, strive to embrace life and others with a positive attitude. Highlight their strengths rather than their weaknesses. Offer mental well-wishes to others, especially those who appear downcast, and radiate positive vibes towards them.
  2. Maintaining a positive mindset is crucial for impacting all areas of your life and inspiring others to adopt a positive outlook. Remember, a positive attitude is essential for creating the change we wish to see in the world.
  3. Engage in daily meditation and prayer to tap into the innate love and peace within your heart, then intentionally send out these positive energies to the world around you, envisioning a radiant divine light embracing both yourself and the world.
  4. Having faith in a Higher Power can shape how we view circumstances, whether positively or negatively, depending on our mindset. Holding onto the belief that His presence is constant can bring a sense of peace, empowering us to face life’s challenges with resilience.
  5. Maintaining a hopeful attitude and believing that things will improve as we put in the effort is crucial for both ourselves and those around us. By staying positive, we can focus on finding solutions rather than dwelling on obstacles. Approaching situations with a sense of calm can attract better results in our lives.
  6. What you focus on expands. This means that the more attention and energy you give to a certain aspect of your life, the more it will grow and manifest. It is crucial to keep this in mind and consciously choose to focus on solutions and positive outcomes. By doing so, you not only attract more positivity into your life but also create a barrier against any negative energy that may try to seep in from the world around you. Stay mindful of where you direct your thoughts and energy, as they have the power to shape your reality.
  7. Surround yourself with positivity: Surround yourself with people who uplift and support you. Avoid negative influences and seek out environments that promote positivity and growth. When negative thoughts creep in, challenge them with positive affirmations or reframing techniques.

By incorporating these key positive practices into your daily routine and mindset, you will align yourself with the universal truths and principles that govern our existence. Consistently practicing gratitude, mindfulness, faith and caring for others can help shift your perspective and help others do the same.

Finding Your Path to a Fulfilling Life

To read this month’s Love in Action Newsletter, click here

In today’s fast-paced world, it can be easy to feel lost or overwhelmed when trying to navigate towards a fulfilling life. But fear not, because finding your path to a fulfilling life is not an impossible task. It starts with self-reflection and understanding what truly brings you joy and purpose. Whether it’s pursuing a passion, cultivating meaningful relationships, or simply taking care of yourself, the key is to align your actions with your values and goals. By staying true to yourself and making conscious choices that align with your desires, you can pave the way to a more fulfilling and satisfying life. Remember, the journey is just as important as the destination, so take the time to enjoy the process and celebrate your progress along the way.

Living rightly, in a moral or spiritual sense, is a profound journey of self-discovery and alignment with the divine. It goes beyond mere personal fulfillment and extends to spreading joy and positivity to those around us. True happiness is not a solitary pursuit but a shared experience that emanates from a heart filled with love and compassion.

Embracing a life lived rightly means facing challenges head-on, drawing strength from an infinite source, and tackling tasks with unwavering determination. It is about approaching each day with a mindset focused on serving a higher purpose, carrying out responsibilities with a cheerful spirit, and nurturing a deep connection with the spiritual essence of existence.

As we walk the path of living rightly, we embark on a continuous journey of growth and enlightenment. It is a process of cultivating virtues, expanding our understanding of the divine, and allowing the light of God to illuminate every aspect of our being. Through this transformative journey, we not only elevate ourselves but also contribute to the collective upliftment of humanity.

Finding Your Path to a Fulfilling Life involves embracing several essential practices:

  1. Focus on Being Happy: Cultivate happiness not only for yourself but for others as well, spreading joy wherever you go. True happiness is meant to be experienced and shared with those around you.
  2. Approaching Tasks with Determination: Instead of shying away from challenging tasks, tap into your unlimited energy and tackle them with determination and enthusiasm.
  3. Maintaining a Connection with the Divine: Keep your focus directed towards God, carrying out your responsibilities with a cheerful heart and staying connected to the divine source of life.
  4. Daily Meditation: Dedicate time each day to meditate with tranquility and love, connecting with the divine presence within you.
  5. Expand your Love: Extend your love beyond yourself to encompass your family, community, nation, and beyond, ultimately embracing Divine Love in God, recognizing the divinity in all things.

By incorporating these practices into your life, you can live authentically in harmony with divine truth, experiencing genuine happiness and fulfillment.

Your Attitude Can Keep Hope Alive

To read this month’s Love in Action Newsletter, click here

I recently had the opportunity to listen to a thought-provoking Sunday message that delved into the concept of “hope”. It was eye-opening to consider hope as a powerful catalyst for helping others. The Minister shared a story about a newlywed couple in our community who exemplified living in harmony with each other and our spiritual community of around 250 individuals, including children. Their behavior serves as a beacon of hope for everyone, and we all reap the benefits of their positivity. It’s a reminder that each of us has the ability to inspire hope in others through our attitudes and actions.

I firmly believe that in every moment, we are faced with choices. Our actions of criticism, selfishness, fear, and complaining can spread negativity, contaminating the world. On the other hand, embracing kindness, love, peace, and generosity allows us to make a positive impact on the world. It is essential to be mindful of our behavior, as our positive attitude can serve as a beacon of hope for others. By living as role models through our actions, we have the power to inspire and uplift those around us.

Each of us has experienced moments where heroes, loved ones, friends, and even strangers have left a lasting impact on our lives, filling us with hope. Here, I present some thoughts on cultivating an attitude that can inspire hope in others:

  1. View yourself as an integral part of the collective rather than being isolated from it. By shifting our focus towards our similarities rather than our differences, we can recognize everyone as members of the human family and actively contribute to the overall well-being. Embrace an inclusive mindset over a self-centered one, allowing your heart to expand as you extend a helping hand to others.
  2. Focus on spreading positivity and light, both for yourself and those around you. Be mindful of the words you use, ensuring they are always uplifting and optimistic. Remember, the energy you put out into the world attracts similar experiences back to you. By focusing on the good in every situation and every person, you invite positive experiences into your life. This principle is known as the law of attraction, the law of cause and effect, or the law of karma. The more you are conscious of this universal law at play in your life, the more you can harness it for your own benefit and for the benefit of others.
  3. Let the golden rule guide your path. It’s truly empowering to have a compass that directs us on how to live in a manner that brings hope to others. This compass is none other than the golden rule: “treat others as you would like to be treated.” Naturally, we all wish to be treated with kindness and respect, so it’s only fitting that we extend the same courtesy to those around us. Imagine the profound sense of peace that comes with living each day in this way. By embodying this principle, we not only uplift ourselves but also become beacons of hope for countless others.
  4. Stay resilient. No matter the challenges that may come your way, always remember that deep within you lies the strength to overcome them and emerge victorious. With each obstacle you face head-on, armed with courage and wisdom, you’ll not only discover light at the end of the tunnel but also ignite hope in the hearts of those around you.

As we navigate through the complexities of life, let us never forget the profound impact we have as bearers of hope. With each step we take towards personal growth, we have the opportunity to shine brightly as beacons of positivity and inspiration for those around us. By embodying kindness, compassion, and resilience in the face of adversity, we not only uplift ourselves but also sow the seeds of hope in the hearts of others.

7 Tips to Bring Harmony into Your Life

To read this month’s Love in Action Newsletter, click here

“More than ever before, people are seeking for that vital and essential knowledge of the Truth which shall free them from the sorrow, sickness and death they have so mistakenly believed in as an unavoidable part of life.” –H. B. Jeffery

I have been reading “The Principles of Healing,” a book written by a mystic who was born in 1872. I am fascinated by the way he explains that we are spiritual beings governed by divine laws.

Reading his book has helped me to remember that we have to constantly strive to be in alignment with divine laws if we really want to find love, peace, and harmony in our lives.

Every time we go in the opposite direction with behaviors of anger, judgement, jealousy, victim mentality, insecurity, and so on, we move away from our divine source and encounter suffering, disappointment, and disharmony.

Being in alignment with divine laws brings us inner peace. Here are some ideas to keep that balance:

  1. Feel your emotions. If you feel sad, confused, or angry, give yourself permission to feel your emotions. Face them with love and compassion, and they will dissolve. Cry if you need to cry, write down your feelings, or seek the help of a coach or therapist.
  2. Clear your heart of any resentments by connecting to any of the forgiveness tools available through books, seminars, and guided therapy.
  3. Meditation: This is a wonderful way to go inward and to feel the eternal peace that resides within you. The practice of meditation helps you to relax, reduce anxiety and stress, and quiet your mind. Invest at least 15-20 minutes a day.
  4. Gratitude: Give thanks in advance in the morning for the wonderful day ahead of you. Before you go to sleep, go over what happened during your day and give thanks for each situation, especially the challenging ones, because they were an opportunity for you to grow. When you are in gratitude, you are in prayer.
  5. Stay in the present: Let go of the past and know that the future is in divine order.
  6. Watch your thoughts; they become your words; watch your words; they become your actions; watch your actions; they become your habits; watch your habits; they become your character; watch your character; it becomes your destiny.” ― Lao Tzu
  7. Receive spiritual nourishment: To be able to have a balanced life, it is important to listen to inspirational spiritual messages that can help you maintain your mind focused on divine laws so you are able to apply them to your daily life.
