Standing Out
When members of your group work at odds with one another, they may not appear to be getting anywhere. Take a moment to analyze the disagreement so
You can seek a more proactive approach to overcome the obstacles.
But don’t get worked up for nothing. Frantic energy will get you nowhere.
Could you make an assertion and adapt your motto?
Sometimes, you can find yourself competing with others. Even though there is a struggle, there is no clear winner. This is your chance! This may be a time to step up and prove your worth.
Could you be sure to pick your battles? This is not a good time to argue just to prove your point. Rise to the challenge for the right reasons.
Order can be restored. You can succeed.
Finally, take a deep breath and re-examine your own path.
All this competition can help you become a better version of yourself.
DO THIS
Grounding activities are important now: Yoga, meditation, labyrinth, breathing exercises, mindfulness are some you may find helpful.
MEDITATION
Find a quiet place for this meditation. If you can, find a place away from street sounds or work noises.
Dim the lights a bit. Sit or lie comfortably.
Take a deep breath and hold it for a moment. Now, release this breath. See the tension in your body leave you now. Take a few deep breaths followed by releasing the breath.
As you breathe out, you release tensions. After a few in-and-out breaths, you feel relaxed. Each exhale brings more relaxation and comfort.
Close your eyes gently now. When you open them, you are standing on a path in a large park.
As you walk on this path, you see the trees overhead. Birds sing and a soft breeze blows. You feel it on your arms. The whole place smells like summer. You see the shadows of the trees and bushes as you walk along.
The path leads you to a stream. You see a small boat on the edge of the water. You know this boat is for you. You get in the boat and untie it. As you do this, the boat gently floats down the stream. Sitting in your boat, you drift and float in calm waters.
As you float along, you understand something: You can anticipate spinning and whirling pools of water. You know that streams have quiet times where the water seems to drift along. You know that streams also have swirling times where the water spins along, bubbling.
What you experience with your being is this: The water has its quiet time, with drifting and floating. Then, there is a turbulent time with bubbling water swiftly moving along.
PAUSE
You bid goodbye to the stream now, knowing that you can return to it any time you wish. You gently move your muscles now, shifting, at your time and pace.

Rejoice and Celebrate
When you have an opportunity to work with others, this new beginning
is a chance to build projects together that will work out.
Liberate yourself from circumstances that no longer suit you.
Appreciate this time. When you work with others, you share with them. This gives you confidence and vitality. They can appreciate your talent.
This inner foundation can be a good work-life balance.
If your life has been hectic lately, take time to integrate all the things you’ve been working on. This can be a blessing. Enjoy the moment.
Spread good energy throughout your community.
How can you celebrate this? Maybe it’s time to serve some cake!
DO THIS
You are living in a positive moment today. How can you celebrate it?
MEDITATION
We accumulate stress throughout the day in the muscles of the head, face, and jaw. This meditation can help smooth and relax these muscles, allowing the tension to disappear.
Select a safe and quiet space for this meditation. Quiet music will help you relax as you follow the movements of this massage.
Dim the lights, light a candle or incense. tTurn on some quiet healing music. Recline or rest is a comfortable face-up position.
Place your fingers lightly on your temples. Move your fingers in small, gentle circles. Move them in clockwise directions and then in counterclockwise movements.
PAUSE
Now, continuing to move your fingers in circles, move your fingers across your forehead area.
PAUSE
Now, using your ring fingers, gently tap around your eyes. Begin by gently tapping beneath your eyebrows and then tap around your eyes as you go around your them.
PAUSE
Gently slide your fingers down your nose. Then move your fingers as you tap the area around your lips.
PAUSE
Now, gently and slowly move your fingers across your cheeks so that each hand is located to the front of each ear. Slowly move your fingers over your ears thoroughly. Finish this with a long, luscious pull on each ear.
Now go to your jawline and gently move your fingers along it.
PAUSE
As you finish your massage, become aware of your thoughts, feelings, or sensations.
It’s time to return to the room now – refreshed, relaxed, and renewed. What specific kinds of touches felt good to you? Did you have a favorite?
Thanks for reading this article.

Ready for the Next Big Step
When you’re ready for the next big step, your personal, professional, and spiritual selves work together.
As this happens, you can see your rewards start to travel in. Look for them! Do this because you need to recognize the progress you’ve made.
Your startup efforts and energy create situations that moves you forward. This can lead to success. You may also have a sense of adventure. It’s time to explore the options that are opening up for you. This is a result of your planning.
Prioritize your goals. This helps you visualize your successful life.
Don’t be mistaken. There is still much work to do. And, there’s a lot to learn because your successes need some new skills you may not yet be comfortable with.
Meanwhile, search for new clients, new relationships, and that lucky break. Your activities and energies bring them.
As you notice what is ahead for you, you can watch what experiences wait ahead.
Pay attention to your future self.
When you set your goals, you can see your objective. You navigate your way forward. Think of anything in your way simply as a surprise or detour. You are on your way!
Focus on your authentic self. Following this lead will support your highest good. Your spiritual, physical, emotional, and mental self can align.
Because you are authentic, you can live and heal your best life.
DO THIS: Spend some time encouraging your creativity. You’ve set your goals. Now, you approach your journey authentically. Use your creative energy to incorporate your feelings on your way to support your spiritual and business activities.
Your writing, drawing, storytelling skills keep yourself open to new opportunities that show up.
MEDITATION:
Choose a quiet and safe space. Sit in a comfortable chair as you focus your attention and awareness on your breathing.
Follow your breath as it enters your body, fills up your lungs, and then leaves your body.
Become aware of your breath as it relaxes your mind and body. Each inhale and exhale releases stress. Tension leaves your body. Continue this comfortable inbreathing and outbreathing for several minutes.
PAUSE
When you are peaceful and relaxed, become aware of the focus and energy you have to set your goals and move forward in your life.
PAUSE
You understand now that you can follow your own path with a clear mind. You know what is right for you.
Let the tension continue to melt away as this understanding anchors, changing how you see yourself.
PAUSE
You take a moment to experience self-love and the potential to create and achieve your future goals.
PAUSE for a moment to allow a sense of peace, acceptance, and grounding to enter your self.
You return now to your intake and release of your breath. You feel deeply relaxed on all levels. Bring your awareness to the present.
Slowly open your eyes. Feel the inner calm and understanding you’ve gained in this meditation.
You know that it is time to return to your daily activities. You also know that you can return to this meditation any time. You know that you can focus on whatever affirmations will benefit you most.
PAUSE for a minute for integration.
Gently and slowly move your muscles. Return to your day with inner calm and understanding.
