NOVEMBER 2024
Heart and Soul
 

 
Hello Beautiful Soul,
 
May this month's message serve as an infusion for your inner heart and soul.  
 
I took the above picture outside my bedroom window in the wee hours of November 9th.  It is what I would have expected on a December or January evening.
 
Wants and Needs 
The substantial, heavy and wet snow making an early appearance.  At least earlier than I would have preferred.
 
My husband often talks about the difference between what we want and what we often need.  
 
I wanted another unseasonably warm day to enjoy the remaining fire-colored leaves left on the trees and yet, nature provided me with the gift that I didn't know I needed. 
 
Nature's Gift
Truly it has been a turbulent and frenetic election season with airwaves, virtual space, and most other spaces I entered filled with palpable worry, anger, vitriol and fear.
 
The perfect stillness of that November 9th overnight snowfall served as the perfect quiet and calm that my inner heart and soul (and nearly every cell in my being) needed.  
 
It provided the perfect backdrop and invitation to reconnect to my inner reservoir of peace, presence and power.  
 
Messages and Mirrors
Nature is filled with perfect messages and mirrors if we, if I, slow down and make space to pause and listen from the inside out.  
 
This month I am sharing a message for your inner heart and soul… 
 

 
THREE QUESTIONS TO CONSIDER

My responses are below.
Please take time to consider yours.
 
What is it time for me to release?
It is time for me to release any remnants of self judgment and pressure that come from old patterns and old conditioning (I was raised in the era of no pain, no gain).  It is also time for me to release worry about others (which, if you are one of my family members, can easily turn into attempts to control)…and instead consciously connect to my own inner peace.  And then send forth energy of wellbeing, flourishing and thriving to others.
 
How can I show more love from me to me?
I can give myself more grace.  I can be more intentional about consistent self care, compassion and gentleness.  This means more quiet time for me (with a tea cup and a lit candle).  More time in nature.  And more time with those who value transparent and authentic sharing.  
 
What is the legacy I am here to leave?
I am here to leave a legacy of more peace, compassion, forgiveness, light and kindness.  I am here to remind us of the oneness that exists even when we our fears and wounds try to blind us from seeing it. I am here to remind us that our true power comes through vulnerable connection and slowing down to honor the still, quiet voice of truth within us. 
 

 
 
What have you learned?
Every breath is victory.
 
How did you learn?
Suffering.
Grace.
Remembering.
 
Here's to remembering that there is always space to choose gentleness and compassion
 - starting with ourselves.

THIS MONTH'S EXCERPT
