Moving Forward? Journey On!
When the time comes to walk away from something that no longer serves its purpose, you may feel a bit reluctant.
On the other hand, maybe you’re running for the door.
Either way, begin the next leg of the journey by setting boundaries. Rites of passage are always easier when you mentally prepare for the future.
When you set boundaries, you focus on things you want to leave behind. This is a way to streamline your transition.
Sometimes, when the moment to move on arrives, you know in your heart you’re not ready. Journey beginnings are easier when you are open-minded. Accepting help from others and leaving old baggage at the curb will make your passage much, much easier.
A move means you’re changing yourself totally: your mind, body, emotions, spirit. But it doesn’t stop with you. Your family, friends, and everyone you interact with will experience the fallout.
Truth seeking can be contagious. And, when your journey begins to change you…some close to you will join in your venture. Some will go in a different direction. Yet others will remain the same, unaffected by the changes moving you, your beliefs, and your activities forward.
Wish them all well and don’t forget to forgive yourself.
DO THIS
Whether your journey is physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, or a combination…now is a really good time to journal or chronicle its unfolding. Write for yourself. Express from your soul what is going on with you. Write what flashes into your consciousness.
MEDITATION
Make yourself comfortable – in a chair or on the floor. You want quiet and safety.
Breathe from deep within your abdomen. Breathe in calm. Breathe out negativity. Focus on this deep breathing for a few minutes as you breathe deeply in and out.
After a short time open your eyes and look around. You are in a room carrying baggage. You are carrying bags in your hands. You carry a large backpack on your shoulders and upper back. They are all full and heavy.
The room gives way to a relaxing beach. You are at the water’s edge. You set down your bags and your backpack. And you lie flat on the beach.
You look at the sky and see a gentle sunrise as the sun comes up on a new day.
As you pause to enjoy this morning, you gently move your legs and arms. You move your wrists. Your spine feels stiff. Your body is sore from carrying all this baggage.
You gently move the muscles and joints throughout your body. You take in much needed oxygen for your body. On an exhale, you send gentle relaxation throughout your body. The stiffness and soreness disappear.
You close your eyes and relax . After a few moments, you are ready to return to the room and the activities waiting for you.
You treat yourself to a glass of refreshing water.

Are you Searching for a Life-Changing Boost? – Try This!
Every once in a while, you may need a life-changing boost.
You find yourself in a situation where you need access to some extra power to change your life. You know you need this because your emotions and reason are conflicted. They are telling you so.
You may even be at a point where you feel there are two truths in your situation. There is the truth which works for you and there is the truth which also works for someone else.
When this happens, consider the discrepancies in the truths in your life. Listen to them. Meditate on them. Study the reality. Maybe both options are bad.
You know you have the skills and resources to make a decision. Something is holding you down so that you cannot get to the outcome.
Pause for a moment. You know you have everything you need. What should you do?
Do these three things:
First, set aside your frustrations. This sounds easy but it can be challenging.
Second, clean your glasses so that you can see the problem for what it actually is. Consider your wants, needs, and loves. Write a list of the pros and cons of the situation.
Listen to your internal guidance and close your eyes. Trust your inner self to know the answer. It can be that the best advice you’re going to get comes from within..
At this point, you know you have everything you need to reach the conclusion you need. You are seeing the issue for what it actually is.
Finally – do you see an outcome? NO?
Well, if you do not see the solution and you are, indeed, seeing the problem for what it is …then there is one last and final step. Trust your judgement.
Get up and walk away.
Walking away from the problem is a viable and realistic option when you do not see any other way.
Many people stay in a situation with an unacceptable outcome because they don’t realize that they can leave.
Leaving the problem behind is a viable and realistic option. There are times when walking away is the best option.
DO THIS:
This is the time for a self-care activity. Reflexology and/or Reiki are soo good for you at this moment. Indulge yourself. This is not a luxury.
MEDITATION:
Begin this meditation by settling yourself in a private and safe space.
Get comfortable.
If it’s appropriate and comfortable, you may want to light a candle, burn incense, or play healing music.
Close your eyes to begin your meditation.
Begin slow, even breathing from deep in your abdomen. Breathe in clean, healing air. Breathe out toxins and negativity. The regularity of this slow, deep, breathing will guide you to get in touch with your inner power and knowing.
After a few breaths, you realize you are walking along a path in a gentle forest area. As you walk along, you notice the aromas and sounds of this place. The flowers and birds in the area call out to you. You begin to feel that you are in a private park.
Walking along, you see a beautiful little clearing with a bench. You know that you are being invited to sit on this bench. As you sit on the bench, you see light coming down from above. It is directed at where you are. Slowly and gently, the light gets brighter and you feel yourself becoming filled with light and healing energy.
You feel that you are in this space at this time to allow you to ponder your question. You understand that your question has prevented you from feeling the oneness you share with the universe.
You ask yourself if you feel unworthy of the answer. Maybe you are experiencing guilt. Maybe you fear the earth. Or, maybe it is several things combined. You allow these feelings to come forward.
Now, you see them leaving you. You are letting them go. You see the light becoming brighter now. It is filled with healing for you and your situation. You feel yourself being absorbed by the light as it’s healing allows you to just BE.
This is a heart-expanding moment. You feel at one with the energy. You want this energy to be in your life.
You enjoy this experience for a few more moments.
It is time to return your awareness back into your area. Slowly and gently bring yourself back.
Know that you can return to this space whenever you want.
