  • The Power of the First Chakra

    The Power of the First Chakra


    Over the next few months, we’ll be sharing with you in these Miracle Moments how to open through the seven main chakras to live more in the Miracle Zone.

    Today’s Miracle Moment is about how we can connect with and open the first or root chakra.

    The root chakra is at the base of your spine, around the tailbone. It’s your access to feelings of safety, connectedness to mother earth, and groundedness. And when you feel safe, connected to earth, and grounded, it’s much easier to live in the Miracle Zone.

    The root chakra is about having the feeling of…This is my gig. I’m not here to fit into everybody else’s world. This is my life experience. I created it, and it’s mine.

    Here is one way to relax into that experience of safety and groundedness by opening your root chakra:

    Lean back against your spine (this doesn’t mean to lean back against your chair). From the inside of your body, lean back inside and relax; with your attention, slide down your spine and sit down inside of yourself.

    From there you can access the root chakra energy, which creates a sense of relaxation that allows your nervous system to experience…All is well!

    You know the peace you feel when you’re in nature and your feet are connected to the ground? Or, when you’re sitting on the ground and your body just relaxes? That’s what happens when you do this practice regularly.

    We invite you to do this practice over the next few weeks and notice how it feels.

    Connect in more deeply to that feeling of…Aaah, all is well. I am safe in the Universe. I feel more grounded.

    As you experience this feeling more, notice what’s shifting in your life? Are you opening to experiencing more miracles?

    Make this your “go-to” practice until you have a continual sense of well-being and belonging. As we connect with the root chakra, we feel greater trust in all of life.

    We end this Miracle Moment with a quote from Jack Kornfield, a great author and meditation teacher:

    ”Love is based on our capacity to trust in a reality beyond fear;
    to trust a timeless truth that’s bigger than all of our difficulties.”

  • The Power of Living Enough

    The Power of Living Enough

    Today’s Miracle Moment Is About the Power of Living Enough…

    I (Marci) recently saw a beautiful etching in a home I visited that said, Let whatever you do today be enough. What a concept!

    Most of us don’t live in a state of “enoughness.” Instead, we live in “I don’t have enough time. I don’t have enough money. I don’t have enough friends. I didn’t do enough today.”

    There’s such a great power in the energy of enoughness. When we stake a claim for ourselves as being enough, and realize we are enough, then what we do and what we have is automatically enough.

    The energy of “not enoughness” is a by-product of not having a strong sense of Self, which results in constantly trying to prove, validate, or earn our enoughness in some way. This is one of our greatest causes of pain.

    An extraordinary woman and dear friend of ours, Lynne Twist, speaks of a concept of sufficiency, what we’re calling enoughness. Lynne, who wrote The Soul of Money and is the co-founder of the Pachamama Alliance, says that our wanting of so much comes from a feeling of lack—but what we really want and need in life is sufficiency or enoughness.

    Our mission is to help people live in a state of miraculous flow—the Miracle Zone– where life really works. A key to being in this flow is to live in the state of enough.

    • I have enough time.
    • I have enough resources.
    • I have enough of everything that I truly need.
    • I have enough trust that everything happens right on time and in my favor.
    • I have enough trust with the Universe that I know in this “now” moment everything is being met that needs to be met.

    So, here is our invitation to you to live more in the Miracle Zone.…

    Over the next few weeks, hold the word enough in your heart. As you’re going through the day, and you catch yourself saying or thinking, “I don’t have enough time. I didn’t get enough done, or any other version of not enough” STOP.

    Say to yourself and feel, “There is enough. I have enough. Everything I need will be supplied. I did plenty. I have plenty. It’s perfect just as it is.”

    Then you’ll start to feel a stronger sense of Self that you don’t feel when you’re so busy trying to get more and trying to accomplish enough.

    We’re on this enough journey together! May this phrase be a helpful guide…

    Let whatever you do today be enough.
