If you take a moment to be still, what’s a message coming in for you?

If you take a moment to be still, what’s a message coming in for you?
How good it feels to be awake and alive. I spent 45 minutes yesterday with my grandson, Teddy. He is 5 months old and we sat under their huge oak tree, simply being with nature. I followed his lead as he was just cooing and talking back to the trees ( or Higher Power) or both. I felt like I was bathing in a soft presence that washed away my stress. I get up and drive 1hour to watch my 2 grandsons one day a week-roughly a 10 hour day. This week my mindset was changed because of being in this group. With the new teaching of mind platter, I find myself more conscious of what I want to bring into my life. Henry and I made Rosemary-Sage Bread and that took 3 hours to make. I was present to both boys in a new way. My son and his wife have a no screen time rule going on for the boys right now. I realized that not using technology to go unconscious helped to co-create nature bathing time and creative expression through baking. Such a paradigm shift. And I met goals of being connected and creative.
I feel peaceful just reading this Tami 🙂
Isn’t funny how little ones can lead the way. Thank you Jane.
I can feel your presence. What a gift you are to those boys and your family! And vice versa! Richard and I were just talking about how we are going to cut off an technology at 8pm. We’ve also decided to not watch tv anymore. We love movies and documentaries, especially on spirituality and personal growth. I think it’s important that we each assess what’s healthy for ourselves.
That I’m exactly where I need to be. That things change and that’s a good thing. That there is reason to be hopeful and that I can’t always see how things can change but that I’m not stuck.
I feel a big exhale when I witness this. Such wisdom.
Right now I’m feeling a lot of frustration, anger, and tightness in my chest. A lot of boundary violations in my life the last few days. I have done a fairly good job of being assertive and saying what I mean but not being mean, but I’m feeling the tension because I feel as if I’m slowly being manipulated again into doing things I don’t want to do.
What’s the boundary you need to hold, Karen? How come that boundary is important to you? Acknowledging you for noticing where this boundary violation is showing up in your body.
Bev, I think it’s an internal boundary that I need to set. Things outside of me are affecting things inside of me. That boundary is important to me because when I don’t set it, whatever is happening is affecting me and my ability to live my life.
