When the time comes to walk away from something that no longer serves its purpose, you may feel a bit reluctant.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, maybe you’re running for the door.<\/p>\n

Either way, begin the next leg of the journey by setting boundaries.\u00a0 Rites of passage are always easier when you mentally prepare for the future.<\/p>\n

When you set boundaries, you focus on things you want to leave behind.\u00a0 \u00a0This is a way to streamline your transition.<\/p>\n

Sometimes, when the moment to move on arrives, you know in your heart you’re not ready.\u00a0 Journey beginnings are easier when you are open-minded.\u00a0 Accepting help from others and leaving old baggage at the curb will make your passage much, much easier.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A move means you’re changing yourself totally:\u00a0 your mind,\u00a0 body, emotions,\u00a0 spirit.\u00a0 But it doesn’t stop with you.\u00a0 Your family, friends, and everyone you interact with will experience the fallout.<\/p>\n

Truth seeking can be contagious.\u00a0 And, when your journey begins to change you…some close to you will join in your venture.\u00a0 Some will go in a different direction.\u00a0 Yet others will remain the same, unaffected by the changes moving you, your beliefs, and your activities forward.<\/p>\n

Wish them all well and don’t forget to forgive yourself.<\/p>\n

DO THIS<\/p>\n

Whether your journey is physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, or a combination…now is a really good time to journal or chronicle its unfolding.\u00a0 Write for yourself.\u00a0 Express from your soul what is going on with you.\u00a0 Write what flashes into your consciousness.<\/p>\n

MEDITATION<\/p>\n

Make yourself comfortable – in a chair or on the floor.\u00a0 You want quiet and safety.<\/p>\n

Breathe from deep within your abdomen.\u00a0 Breathe in calm.\u00a0 Breathe out negativity. Focus on this deep breathing for a few minutes as you breathe deeply in and out.<\/p>\n

After a short time open your eyes and look around.\u00a0 You are in a room carrying baggage.\u00a0 You are carrying bags in your hands.\u00a0 You carry a large backpack on your shoulders and upper back.\u00a0 They are all full and heavy.<\/p>\n

The room gives way to a relaxing beach.\u00a0 You are at the water’s edge.\u00a0 You set down your bags and your\u00a0 backpack.\u00a0 And you lie flat on the beach.<\/p>\n

You look at the sky and see a gentle sunrise as the sun comes up on a new day.<\/p>\n

As you pause to enjoy this morning, you gently move your legs and arms.\u00a0 You move your wrists.\u00a0 Your spine feels stiff.\u00a0 Your body is sore from carrying all this baggage.<\/p>\n

You gently move the muscles and joints throughout your body.\u00a0 You take in much needed oxygen for your body.\u00a0 On an exhale, you send gentle relaxation throughout your body.\u00a0\u00a0The stiffness and soreness disappear.<\/p>\n

You close your eyes and relax .\u00a0 After a few moments, you are ready to return to the room and the activities waiting for you.<\/p>\n

You treat yourself to a glass of refreshing water.<\/p>\n
