DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 7 “Knowing Your Perfection”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 7 “Knowing Your Perfection”

Today’s Body Connection: Your goal is always to know your perfection.  Choose the workouts that awaken your awareness of your excellence. If running activates empowerment, run.  If dancing generates joy, than dance.  If yoga is the practice that lets you know that you are divine, this year do more yoga.  Perfection is who we are, not what we do.  To know your divine self, you must go within, do a little self-exploration. To truly know who you are, be willing to take the journey.

Today’s Meditative Thought:  Perfection is not what we do; perfection is what we are.  We must constantly remind ourselves that we are more than heartache, lack, limitation, disease, doubt, or fear that we may experience during this human incarnation.  We are divine beings.  We must use our third eye, our spiritual eye, to see beyond our faults, character defects, the ego mind, and other distractions.  There are times in our lives that we cannot recognize the presence of God and need to ask for help.  It could be help from a practitioner, a spiritual counselor, friends, or God itself.   But the only way to truly know God is in the stillness of our hearts.  We must take the take the time to be still and know that God is our life; therefore perfection is what we are.  It is in the stillness, the holy space of our consciousness, where we can experience the true nature of God. We must always set the intention to know more God.  We must set the intention to grow in our spiritual journey.

Today’s Action Plan:  Today, set the intention to see with your third eye.  Set the intention to expand your consciousness though prayer and meditation.  During your day, ask the Universe to reveal itself.  There may be time when you just stop and say a prayer, “God show yourself,” then expect God to show up.

Today’s Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, my mind, body, and spirit is the life of God.  I am an on-purpose being on a mission to know God.  As I bless myself, I bless the planet.  Amen.

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 15 – “Low State or High State”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: “Remember” Day 15 – “Low State or High State”

Today’s Body Connection:  Remember, living a healthy life is based on awareness, a divine mindfulness that you cannot separate the mind from the body and the body from the spirit.  It is all connected.  Health and fitness is a higher state of consciousness.  When we eat, we must remember that it is a spiritual experience.  Not only do we pray and thank God for the food we are about to receive, but eating is also about nourishment of the body-temple, home of your spirit.  Our fitness has more than a superficial meaning, if we choose.  There is a difference between working out to know your divinity and working out to get into your skinny jeans.  It’s not about wrong our or right, just different levels of consciousness.  It’s about our awareness and our intentions.  To know your divine self is a high state of consciousness; to drop a dress size or two is a low state of consciousness.  The higher state will always bring us inner peace, while the lower state’s recompense is fleeting and disappointing.  Choose the higher state.

Today’s Meditative Thought: The low state of consciousness is when we are asleep to the greatness that is within ourselves.  The high state of consciousness is when this greatness is activated and in use.  Today is the day we wake up and set the planet ablaze.  It is time to transform our world and it begins with you.

Today’s Action Plan:  Today, remember you can be in a low state of consciousness or a high state of consciousnesses.  Today is a day of awareness.  Stay awake!

Today’s Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember the time to transform is now.  And so it is.  Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Surrendering – Day 30 “God’s Time”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Surrendering – Day 30 “God’s Time”

The Body Connection:  Our biggest lessons on this path of the body connection are simple:  1.  Fitness is a journey with no destination and no time limits.  It is a practice required for the rest of our existence on this side of life.    2.  We must release the goal of looking like something or someone to measure our health and fitness.  What we see in the magazine or how another appears to us is our own perception.  3. Love yourself through every step of the journey.  4. Do not put a time limit on your fitness.  When we use a time marker to drop a certain amount of pounds, we set ourselves up for failure.  During your journey to or back to fitness, recognize that you are in God’s perfect time and that in that space all things are happening exactly how they need to work.  Everything happens in God’s time, so stop looking for shortcuts.

Meditative Thought: Surrender to God’s time.  Sometimes we want our blessings when we want them.  But God’s time is infinite, so our blessings are happening right now.  In our human mind we have created ideas for what our blessings should look like and when they should happen.  Take God out of your personal box.  No matter what our goals, desires, or intentions are, we must release our personal timeline.  The Universe does not work on our terms.  God is an all-powerful, all-knowing life force that has it in control.  Once we recognize that God just is, without conditions or favorites, and is not handing out blessings faster to those who worship more, we will free up the divine flow to happen in our lives.

Today’s Action Plan:  Today, free your mind to the infinite outpouring of God’s Love.  Meditate on the simple manta, “Everything is happing in divine perfect timing.”  Know that your transformation is happening at the pace it needs to happen.  Journey any thoughts or insights that might come up before, during, and after meditation.  It is important for you to keep a record of all your Ah-ha moments.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I free my mind with the love of God.  Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND AND SPIRIT: Surrendering – Day 14 “Surrender to Seeing Love”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND AND SPIRIT:  Surrendering – Day 14 “Surrender to Seeing Love”

The Body Connection:  The daily physical practice of exercise can be challenging until we surrender to love. Find an exercise regimen that speaks to you.  Take the time to explore the different opportunities to strengthen your body-temple.  There are so many options, like yoga, dancing, weight training, Pilates, walking, and/or running, but you have to find one you like.   When your physical practice becomes a chore, there is a higher probability that you won’t stick to it.  You can’t win if you are not in.  It is the energy of love that will keep you active and committed.

Meditative Thought: God only knows Love; therefore all blessings come from a place of Love.  Each situation is a reminder of Love or an invitation to surrender to Love.  Focus on finding the highest consciousness in your exercise time.  If it’s a challenge, ask the Universe to make itself known to you.  The Love is present everywhere; we just need to open our eyes.

Today’s Action Plan:  Today, surrender to the practice of seeing Love.  Set the intention to find the Divine in the physical.  Every time you are aware of Love, make a record of it in your journal.  When life throws you a loop, refer to your list.

 

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I surrender my life to Love.  I am open and available to seeing the Universal flow as I transform my life.  And so it is.  Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND AND SPIRIT: Surrendering – Day 11 “Surrender to Grace”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND AND SPIRIT: Surrendering – Day 11 “Surrender to Grace”

The Body Connection:  As we begin the journey to transform the body-temple, there is a requirement of surrender.  There are days when you might not want to get up and get moving, but it is a must.  Every day the body not only requires exercise, it craves it.  There are no shortcuts around getting in shape; it is challenging and sometimes uncomfortable but the payoff is so worth it.  Remember your promise to yourself to stay active and to live a healthier lifestyle.  The Universe has your back and you are supported.  So wake up and get moving; walk, run, dance, work out, and connect with your divine self.  Once you surrender to the work, you will find the grace that is sufficient.

Meditative Thought: When we surrender to the will of God, this is the practice of allowing grace to flow as our life.  Grace is the easy movement of the Universe, the unobstructed blessing in our life.  Begin to align your thoughts with your commitment to a healthier way of life

Today’s Action Plan:  Today, surrender to the flow of Grace.  As you work out, use a mantra that reminds you of how strong you are.  A simple affirmation will do the job: “I am strong and filled with Grace.”  Keep a daily journal of your “Ah-ha” moment as you continue on your journey.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am strong, powerful, and one with Grace.  I bless my journey as I live my greatest life.  Amen

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGET: 31 Days of Surrendering to God – Day 6 “God Lives Within”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGET:  31 Days of Surrendering to God – Day 6 “God Lives Within”

 

Meditative Thought: Our connection to the Universe is the key to everything.  We must stop looking up to a God that is far away and begin to surrender to a God that lives within our being.  Once we remember that we live, move, and have our being in God, our life changes dramatically.  Anything we set the intention to do must be fueled from the energy of surrender to allow the fullness and the greatness to come forth.

 

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today, begin to know the God within you.  Cultivate a relationship with your higher self.  Spend time communing and getting to know Spirit on an intimate level.

 

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am one in God that lives within my soul.  Amen

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGET: 31 Days of Surrendering to God – Day 3 “God As the Pilot”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGET:  31 Days of Surrendering to God – Day 3 “God As the Pilot”

Meditative Thought: We must stop telling God how to be God.  That job has been taken since the beginning of time.  When we release the need to be the commander of this ship known as life, travel will become easier.  God does not need a co-pilot, just a willing passenger excited for the ride.

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today, allow God to be the pilot of your ship.  It might sound simple, but when you are faced with a fork in the road, ask your higher self which path to take.  At the end of your day, journal your experience and reflect on any insight that may come up.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, my life is infused with the Holy Spirit and all is well.  Amen

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 31 “The Practice That Empowers Our Existence”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Empowerment – Day 31 “The Practice That Empowers Our Existence”

Meditative Thought: Empowerment comes from our practice and our willingness to grow.  Our practice uncovers revelations for growth, which, indeed, leads to Empowerment. When we learn about who and what we are, we anchor our lives in a divine power that will energize our every move.  As we study, revelations are revealed quicker and we begin to live a life that is always empowered. Divine knowledge is power and this power is ours for the taking.  This journey will be the most challenging but also the most fulfilling thing we can ever do.  Transformation of the mind, body, and sprit comes from the commitment to the practice of sacred study.  Be willing and open, do the work, and you will know more power than you every dreamed of.

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today, set the intention to create or reignite your spiritual practice.  Decide your path of study and commit.  In your journal, write yourself a letter of commitment, sign it, and stick to it.  For 30 days, read your letter of commitment and follow through.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I reveal the truth and allow God to shine. Amen

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 27 “Sharing Your Inner Vision ”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Empowerment – Day 27 “Sharing Your Inner Vision ”

Meditative Thought:  Today is the day to empower yourself and share your talents.  Some of us have gifts that we take for granted or have talked ourselves out of sharing.  What talent has Spirit placed in your heart that you are keeping for yourself? There are some who give freely to the collective.  Thank you; you inspire the rest of us.  But there are others with many gifts to share but who live in the mindset of “I am not good enough”, stepped beyond fear. Like the Nike add says, “Just Do It.” We need your blessing. We need your inspiration. Our evolution depends on each and every person expressing his or her talents. It is already good enough; it is already perfect in the Mind of God. Trust and don’t judge yourself. Spread your wings and fly. Your destiny is calling; will you answer?

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today, share your gift with one other person, then journal about the experience.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am the tool that uplifts this planet. And so I am. And so I let it be. Amen

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS: 31 Days of Empowerment – Day 23 “Stillness for the Empowerment”

DAILY SPIRITUAL NUGGETS:  31 Days of Empowerment – Day 23 “Stillness for the Empowerment”

Meditative Thought: Empowerment is the recognition of the Creator that lives within.  We can only know our divine power and our connection in the stillness.  When we are in the quiet times and focused on who and what we are, our existence is empowered with purpose. When we can live in the “now moment,” we are truly free, free to be the light that inspired the world. When we immerse ourselves in meditation and commune with the Christ Consciousness within, the power of God unfolds in our lives.  From the stillness we will find the power to do anything and everything.

Today’s Spiritual Assignment:  Today is the day you choose stillness to know the truth.  During your meditation, contemplate the power of God that lives within you.  Cultivate the energy you feel and allow it to energize your daily activity.

Affirmation:  Just for this moment…just for this breath, God is my meditation. And so I am. And so I let it be.
