This Week’s Meditative Thought – With God’s Eyes

If you step back and I mean really, really back, the Universe with it’s millions of stars, dust, comets, planets of every size, shape and form makes our human flaws and mishaps appear quite small, I mean, really really small. Yet, they both exist and in fact these flaws and mishaps appear much bigger in our lives. Let that sink in for a second.

It’s amazing how we can grasp the enormity of the Universe, yet still feel love, peace, order, balance, prosperity or the lack of these things. It shows me that within us that there is a bigger spirit that unifies these gifts into the larger context of the Universe.

It also confirms to me that this love, joy, peace, order, balance, prosperity, and abundance are as much God’s essence as the physical attributes that make up the Universe we live in. In fact love permeates much deeper within the Universe than the brightest galaxies or planets.

This Week’s Spiritual Assignment:

This week remember to see yourself within the context of God’s Universe. In everything you do, move with the Love of God shining as bright as a star. You are blessed, so be mindful of the this.

This Week’s Meditative Thought – God Revealing

This week’s Meditative Thought revolves around Love and in God’s revealing nature. It has been said that love is the answer to all things and we can do anything with this love of the Universe. In Christopher Nolan’s movie Interstellar there’s a beautiful dialogue between Matthew McConaughey’s character; Cooper and Anne Hathaway’s; Brand about Love’s power.

“Love isn’t something that we invented. It’s observable. Powerful. It has to mean something. Maybe it means something more, something we can’t yet understand. Maybe it’s some evidence, some artifact of a higher dimension that we can’t consciously perceive. Love is the one thing that we’re capable of perceiving that transcends dimensions of time and space.”

I LOVE this scene as it places our connection to this high vibration of Love that fuels every essence of our lives. Know that the power that is within you is divine and full of grace.

This Week’s Spiritual Assignment:

All this week, remember that you are God’s love expressing itself uniquely as you. Every moment you can remind yourself that you are expressing the love of God.

Many blessings and have a terrific week.

Skip’s Weekend Affirmation – Yoga To Love

Yoga To Love

This week we focused on Love and yoga and how they can help you find that center of peace. Affirmations are a fantastic way to end a week and at cleansing your soul. They are most effective when they hold some type of truth or resonance for you. So steel away your moment to breath and find that resonance.

Just for this moment…just for this breath, I express the God in me, and I can celebrate the God in others. There is only but one life, the life of God, and I am connected. My life is magnificently immersed in God.

Peace and Blessings,

-Skip

This Week’s Meditative Thought–Yoga To Love

Yoga To Love

Yoga-sitting This week we’ll contemplate and cultivate our “oneness consciousness” and how we are connected to our higher self, which is Love. In yoga, our primary focus is to deepen our awareness to the Universal presence of God. Because God is love, a yogi’s journey is the journey to Love. Once known, we are connected in God, and become aware of our connection to each other. These connections runs deep within every cell of our existence that is always active and waiting to be recognized in each other. When we take the time to meditate and to be aware of our spiritual connection to one another, we participate in the sacred practice of fellowship.

This Week’s Spiritual Assignment:

Today, journal about the God connection you find in other people. Make a list of the divine attributes you recognize in the people you meet. List the divine characteristics you want others to see in you. Remember there is but one God that lives in all of us.

Have a blessed week,

This Week’s Meditative Thought – The Practice of Love

Screenshot 2015-02-02 12.04.57 Love is the highest state of consciousness and it is the awareness of God in action. Being in a state of love is releasing the human condition of : lack, limitation, disappointment, fear, and worry, which block the flow of Love. This week we’ll aim for The practice of Love, to help free ourselves from the human condition. Love is connecting with the light within you and with someone else. The sorrow of the human condition would have us believe that love is not possible. That is a lie of the ego.

One of the intentions I speak about in yoga is opening up the heart and allowing yourself to love again. We must set the intention to practice Love. If there is a religion that I subscribe to, it is the religion of Love and Kindness.

Remember, what you send out is what you get back.

This Week’s Action Plan: Today, set the intention to The Practice of Love. When you find yourself operating from a place of fear, shift your thinking right away. Give yourself permission to love yourself. Allow your heart chakra to be open and filled with love. Forgive yourself for the fear that consumed your thinking and begin again.

Blessings,

Happy Holidays Message

This time of the year is one of my favorites as it encompasses the sacred holidays of light; “Hanukkah, Christmas and Kwanzaa”. It’s during these holidays that I encourage you to reflect your inner light to illuminate a world that appears to be shrouded in darkness. With the news seeming filled with dark events let’s embrace with an open heart the elements of the Devine Light of the universes such as: joy, compassion, power, abundance, grace, and prosperity.

This Divine Light lives within all of us and is an illuminating presence that is felt deep within an open heart. This Light was here at the beginning of all time and is with us throughout our lives. Let us tap this Light and share the Love, Joy, Compassion, Oneness, Abundance, and Grace in every situation in our lives. When we surrender to its existence, we will have a purpose, a calling, and our existence can have meaning. During this time remember the reason for the season. Go out and shine your Light.

Wishing you and all your love ones a very festive and happy holidays.

Blessings,

– Skip

This Week’s Meditative Thought – Celebrating the Light

© M B / Attribution-ShareAlike I absolutely love this time of the year as it marks the beginning of the celebrations of Hanukkah, Christmas and Kwanzaa. This week I want to ground ourselves as we prepare for these holidays and focus on “Celebrating The Light” as our Meditation and Action plan.

When celebrating the Light, ask yourselves what is Light? In my own experience and understanding, the Light is God, the One Power, the One Mind, and the One Presence that I call Love. The Light is everything, everywhere active, and is within us all. The qualities of the Light are always, joy, compassion, power, abundance, grace, and prosperity. The Light can only to be seen when we are willing to perceive it. It gives off such an illuminating presence that it is an undeniable, unmistakable likeness that can only be explained as a miraculous presence felt deep within the heart. This divine Light can only be experienced with an open heart.

This Week’s Action Plan: As we begin celebrating this time of the year with family and friends, open your heart and be willing to experience the Light. During your meditation focus on feeling the Light instead of thinking about what it is. Be open to having an experiential experience instead of an intellectual one.

Peace and Blessings.

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 11 “Celebrate You”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 11 “Celebrate You”

Today’s Body Connection: Set the intention to recognize what you have said yes to. Every physical practice is a celebration of your inner work. When you train the body-temple you celebrate the divine gift of life. Today is the day to rejoice and enjoy yourself. You are on the path, a journey to wellness. Remember, nothing stops you but you, so get moving, keep moving, and never give up.

Today’s Meditative Thought: It is so important that we set the intention to celebrate who and what we are every day. This spiritual practice is the elevation of joy within our souls and is the daily action that anchors our oneness with God. When we are mindful of God as our life, there is this sense that everything will be okay. There is no need for doubt, fear, lack or limitation thinking; there is only room to celebrate. This type of celebration, or what I call the “spiritual happy dance,” is personal. It could be an act of giving or it could be a mantra, “God is, I am, and I celebrate.” It could be the participation in a physical act like walking in the park, playing with your pet or loved one, or taking a yoga class. Sometimes a little prayer of “Thank you God” is a celebration of the life of the Holy Spirit that is within us.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, celebrate who and what you are. Decide how you want to celebrate and consciously take the action to rejoice. For the next 30 days, create a ritual that will elevate your gratitude and thanksgiving for the blessing of your oneness with God.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I celebrate the God that lives within me. Today I am Joy rising, and I am grateful. Amen.
