  • Stretching Outside of Your Comfort Zone

    Stretching Outside of Your Comfort Zone

    Today’s Miracle Moment is about stretching outside of your comfort zone so you can live more fully in the Miracle Zone.

    I (Marci) am coming to you from beautiful Island Lake in the Sierra Nevada mountains in California. Now, let me tell you, getting here was certainly a stretch outside of my comfort zone. 

    It’s not that being in nature is a stretch for me because I’ve always loved nature. I grew up as a girl scout, and we’d camp every summer. However, in my 62 years of life, I’d never backpacked into a remote area. So, when my partner, Sergio, suggested we do a  backpacking trip, all kinds of objections, resistance and fears came up. 

    My mind started having a little anxiety party… Was I going to be able to handle the weight of the heavy backpack? Was it going to be too hard for me to hike in? Were we going to be so remote that there wouldn’t be anybody around if we needed help? Would we encounter bears? 

    While I almost said no to the trip, I realized I didn’t want to spend any more time in resistance. Fears can block progress by keeping us stuck in our comfort zone, and I wanted to move beyond that.

    One of the principles that Dr. Sue Morter and I teach in the Your Year of Miracles program, which is about how to live in the Miracle Zone, is to choose where you put your energy and attention.

    Initially I had put my focus on all the possible problems. Fortunately, I was able to catch myself and shift my attention partway through my thought process. It’s not that my fear disappeared–I still felt the fears, but I decided to go anyway and just put my attention on what I wanted to experience.

    I told myself, “Okay, I’m going to do this. I can do this even though it’s a stretch for me, and it’ll be a fabulous experience.”  Making this choice landed me in the most magical, phenomenal place that was nourishing to my soul.  That would not have happened had I not shifted my attention and stretched beyond my comfort zone!

    An Invitation to You…

    This week I invite you to find something that would stretch you outside of your comfort zone. It might not be physical. Maybe it’s about your finances or perhaps it’s some kind of social stretch like putting together a Zoom party with friends or family.

    Moving beyond your comfort zone will build your inner strength and create more possibilities in your life. You’ll experience living more in the Miracle Zone. 

    So, select a stretch that’s right for you, and share that in the comments below. Let’s join together and cheer each other on in choosing where we put our energy and attention so we can stretch beyond our comfort zone. Then, celebrate yourself when you’ve actually done that stretch.

    I send you my love and my great wishes in moving beyond your comfort zone to live in the Miracle Zone.

    “Real change is difficult at the beginning, but gorgeous at the end. Change begins the moment you get the courage and step outside your comfort zone; change begins at the end of your comfort zone.”

    ― Roy T. Bennett

  • The Power of the Seventh Chakra

    The Power of the Seventh Chakra


    Today’s Miracle Moment is about the seventh chakra or energy center, which is about our connection to the oneness of life.

    We all crave connection, and today’s Miracle Moment is about the most powerful connection of all– to the oneness of life. Opening the seventh chakra can help you tap into this blissful connection. Our seventh chakra, located at the top of the head, is referred to as the crown chakra, and it’s the energy center for connecting to our divinity, to spirit and to oneness. It creates a feeling of unity in life, a feeling of connection with all of life. From our experience, when this seventh Chakra opens, life feels more magical–it’s what we call “living in the Miracle Zone.”

    Today we’ll share a practice to help open the crown chakra and your connection to divinity. Truly, it’s who you are. You’re a divine being manifest here on this planet in human form. So, you’re not a human being–you’re just being human. You’re actually made of these divine energies that you can tap into and access.

    To tap into the divine energy, we share this practice to open the crown chakra. . . 

    • Imagine a funnel
      Imagine that you have a giant funnel sticking out of the top of your head that goes out to the planets above you, to the sun and the moon and the whole Milky Way. This funnel goes to the constellations and other galaxies far beyond; it goes into stardust and makes its way out to the unmanifest world. When you imagine and create an energetic funnel, it becomes a channel for pure connection.
    • Breathe from and into the Crown Chakra
      Now, you can keep that connection alive by specific breathing practice.  Pick a spot about two inches beneath the surface of your skull and then pick another spot two inches above your head. Inhale from the spot two inches above your head and exhale from the spot two inches beneath the surface of your skull — about the center of your brain. Then inhale from the center of the brain and exhale right back out to two inches above your head. Pretend that you’re a whale blowing out the blow hole. Exhale like a whale would, with power, right up through the crown of your head. Next inhale as if you’re just breathing right in through the soft spot when you were a baby, right into the center of your brain. Then exhale right back out.
    • Expand and connect
      As you start to practice this center of the brain breathing, expand it further.  Breathe further above the head. Start to incorporate the funnel you created to breathe in the planets, the constellations, and the cosmos. Breath it all right back down into the body. That’s how we start to open this gateway and allow these energies to integrate so instead of feeling like a separate self, we feel connected. 

    Do this practice regularly and you’ll probably start to feel like a different person (or more of who you really are). You can also go back and review the other Miracle Moments practices we’ve shared and do those as well.  This energy work connects you to the truth of who you are. 

    In the work that I (Marci) did interviewing people about happiness, the most consistent quality I found amongst unconditionally happy people is a feeling of connection to the greater energy of the universe. This seventh Chakra practice is a brilliant way to help us feel more connected to the divinity of who we truly are. So, start this practice right away and then share with us what’s opening for you either on our Facebook page and in the comments section below. 

    Many people comment about feeling a lightness or tingling in the head while doing this practice. Did you have a similar experience? Or what sensations or openings did you feel?

    We’ll end today with a beautiful quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson:

    “We live in succession, in division, in parts, in particles. Meantime within man is the soul of the whole; the wise silence; the universal beauty, to which every part and particle is equally related; the eternal ONE.”

    Let us open to the truth of our eternal oneness, and as we do, may we live more fully in the Miracle Zone!

  • The Power of the Sixth Chakra

    The Power of the Sixth Chakra


    Today’s Miracle Moment is about the sixth chakra or energy center, which is often called the third eye.

    The sixth chakra, located in the area between the eyebrows, is our energy center that helps expand our perspective and vision–it’s our center for true seeing and intuition. Opening the sixth chakra is one of the ways that we can most powerfully open up to the energy of the Miracle Zone, where miracles more easily flow into our life.

    When we have clear vision, and when we connect in deeply to our intuition, we have a greater sense about where to go and what to do. We make decisions that are informed by our intuition and that are aligned with our greater good.

    It’s great to hear about opening our energy centers, but the real value comes from actually using these practices to truly open them.  Dr. Sue has great practical techniques to open up our energy centers, and in this Miracle Moment, she shares a practice to open the third eye.

    While it’s called the third eye,  it should be called the first eye because it’s about seeing the real you, the you that existed long before you decided to come to the earth. The you that existed before you got freaked out about being a human being who is trying to figure out how to get back to the truth of who you are. 

    Our first eye has access to our multidimensionality. We’re not just physical human beings who are struggling through this life on earth. We’re much more! We’re spirit beings who came into form, and we have access to tremendous resources to live in the Miracle Zone as soon as we start to recognize the truth of who we are.

    Opening our sixth chakra is fabulous because it allows us to activate the higher brain centers that are above the primitive brain. This opening helps us operate creatively to figure out what we want and move towards it.  

    Join us in this practice to open the sixth chakra…

    • Sit up straight and keep your nose pointed forward. Roll your eyes up and slightly together in a comfortable position. Don’t make it tense—just enough to feel the muscles working. Keep the chin retracted slightly.

    This will activate muscles that are inside the cranium which are located very close to the pineal gland. The pineal gland receives energy of high frequency quality that is considered divine. It’s considered other worldly and it is really accessing the True Self.  

    • Take a deep breath in right into the tension that you can feel between the eyes. Then, relax your eyes, rolling them down.
    • Exhale and roll your eyes up, and inhale again into the tension behind the eyes.
    • Roll your eyes down and exhale. Once again, roll your eyes up and inhale. Roll your eyes down and exhale.
    • Once more, roll your eyes up and inhale divine light, divine guidance, divine truth—the truth of who I AM.
    • Exhale, dropping into your body and experience having all of this divine light, guidance, and truth right here in this life.
    • Roll your eyes up. Breathe in your own Higher Self. Breathe it into your brain. Let the brain be filled and filtering high frequency energies of possibility.
    • Roll your eyes down and exhale down through your body into the earth. Let yourself fully have all that you are receiving.
    • Roll your eyes up and take a deep breath in. Receive the light from this high frequency source, from the Cosmos.
    • Roll your eyes down and exhale. Let it be for you. Let it be you. Receive it consistently. Have it. Notice how it feels in your body, and just relax your body.

    You will start to feel clear in your brain. You’ll feel more open and you’ll find yourself thinking thoughts that you wouldn’t normally allow yourself to think. These thoughts are creative in nature and meant to guide you toward understanding a bigger version of who you are—a more magnificent version of who you are. You’ll begin to manifest more in alignment with that magnificent you.

    This practice and all of the body-based, somatic practices that we have been sharing with you are practices that any one of us can do. They take just a couple of minutes to do, and they start to totally restructure how you experience life.

    You could spend a year mentally trying to do things to open up your vision center, or you could spend moments…consistently.

    We suggest that you do this practice every day for a few weeks, just a minute or two every day. By doing this practice, you will begin to create different connections in the body and mind that will powerfully clear your mind.

    Experience it and let us know how it goes for you. Share with us on our Facebook page and in the comments section below.

     We’ll end with a quote by a brilliant 19th century British poet, William Blake…

     “If the doors of perception were cleaned, everything would appear to man as it is—infinite.”
     ~William Blake

    Let us open up that true vision that we have and see the world as infinite, and as we do, we’ll live more and more in the Miracle Zone!

  • The Power of the Fifth Chakra

    The Power of the Fifth Chakra


    Today’s Miracle Moment is about the fifth chakra, the energy center of communication and manifestation.

    The fifth chakra, around the throat area, is where many people feel some constriction or feeling of tightness. That generally relates to an emotional tightness around communicating or speaking.

    The throat chakra is about speaking your truth. It relates to listening and hearing so that you can manifest appropriately with grace and ease.

    If you ever experience fear around speaking or expressing your feelings or ideas, or you simply want to be a better communicator or manifestor, you’ll appreciate the practice we share with you here that will help you open up the throat chakra.

    We’re all made of energy, and energy creates vibrational sounds in the Universe and in our human system. You can do some very simple sound and toning practices to support the chakra system. Simple sounds of aah and ooh and mmm bring energy through your system in a particular way that opens you up and activates your chakras.

    For this practice, you’ll be using three sounds or tones: aah, ooh, mmm.

    It doesn’t have to sound pretty; it just has to be authentic.

    Let’s do this practice together…

    • Take a breath in and exhale making the expansive sound…aah. Continue making the sound of aah for about 10 seconds.
    • Imagine a channel, a tube of energy, coming right down through your body like a waterfall.
    • Take another breath in and exhale making the sound of ooh. Continue making the sound of ooh for about 10 seconds. This channels the energy down through your body and enlivens the chakra centers.
    • Take a breath in and exhale the sound of mmm for about 10 seconds. As you make the sound of mmm, feel the vibration in your mouth and in the back of your throat. This anchors the energy.

    Perhaps you can feel your spine or the base of your skull vibrating. That’s you starting to land more in your body.

    Do this practice when you’re wanting to listen to others with greater understanding, speak your truth more fully, or manifest with ease and grace. Life is supposed to be easy—it’s time for us to remember that!

    Opening ourselves and our expression through the fifth chakra allows us to break down barriers and feel our deeper connection to others.

    We suggest you do this practice once or twice a day for just a minute or two. You can invite your family members to do this with you or you can find a private place and do it by yourself.

    Have a curiosity about what could happen in your life by doing this practice.

    What we’ve seen is that this simple practice can help you feel greater alignment and aliveness and open you to the Miracle Zone, where miracles flow more easily into your life.

    We’ll end today’s Miracle Moment with a quote from Ernest Hello who is a 19th century writer and critic who said…

    “There are men who would quickly love each other if once they were to speak to each other; for when they spoke, they would discover that their souls had only been separated by phantoms and delusions.”

    We wish you a great experience with speaking your truth and manifesting the miraculous!

    Please share your experience of this exercise with us. We love hearing from you! How was this toning practice for you? Head over to our Facebook page and tell us about your experience with making these sounds. Did you notice any shifts?

  • Keeping Bright Over the Holidays

    Keeping Bright Over the Holidays


    Welcome to today’s Miracle Moment.

    It’s the holidays and maybe you’re feeling a little stressed, overwhelmed, stretched a bit too thin, or even feeling a little blue. Don’t worry, you’re not alone.

    The rate of depression goes up over the holidays for many reasons. Maybe it’s the thought of dealing with that cranky aunt of yours at the family dinner. Or, maybe it’s the stress of finding the right gift for someone in your life.

    Maybe it’s the financial burden of all of those gifts you feel that you have to purchase. Or, maybe it’s all of the sugar that’s popping up everywhere that you end up eating. For multiple reasons, many people don’t feel happy during the holidays. In fact, December can be a month of burnout.

    Today we’re sharing with you a simple way to get yourself back into the Miracle Zone; a way to keep your energy bright and steady, even when the holiday craziness is all around you.

    I (Dr. Sue) have been working with patients for more than 30 years, and I’ve witnessed how many people experience depression, overwhelm, and stress during the holidays.

    During this time, the breath work I’ve developed is especially helpful as it anchors us in our bodies and hearts and brings us into the present moment. Instead of being in our heads thinking of all we have to do, this breath work allows us to heal,and can remind us that this is a time of miracles on earth– a time to remember that we are made of high frequency energy and light.

    To get back into the Miracle Zone, here’s a simple, but powerful practice…

    1. Begin by breathing down low in your belly. As you inhale, make your belly big.
    2. Exhale, pulling your belly back to your spine.
    3. Inhale making your belly big like Santa’s belly or like a big Buddha belly, and exhale making the belly smaller on the exhale.
    4. Breath in and imagine that a ray of light, a bundle of Holy light, is pouring down into your body.
    5. As you exhale, infuse that light into the cells of your body.
    6. Take another deep breath in from overhead and experience it coming down through the center of your brain, the center of your throat, the center of your chest, the center of your belly.
    7. Exhale into the earth and open the jaw making the sound of haah.

    This vibrational tone allows you to anchor and center yourself at the same time. It pulls you out of the hubbub that’s happening in the world and allows you to drop down into your body to feel an entirely different vibrational frequency moving through you.

    As simple as it seems, this practice can change everything in an instant. It can change your entire experience during the holidays.

    This is the season of lights—there are lights on the trees, candles are lit, you see light everywhere on the outside. Let’s also experience the light within ourselves with this simple practice.

    The holidays are Holy days. Rather than being stressed out and not experiencing the holiness of the season, let’s truly make the holidays Holy days filled with light and love.

    Happy Holy Days with all our love.

    Please share your experience of this breath work practice in the comments section below and on our Facebook page. We love hearing from you!

  • The Power of the Fourth Chakra

    The Power of the Fourth Chakra


    Today’s Miracle Moment is about the fourth chakra, the heart center.

    The fourth chakra, in the area of the heart, is the energy center most associated with giving and receiving love. When we feel open-hearted, when our hearts feel full and expanded rather than contracted or in fear, when we feel gratitude, forgiveness and loving-kindness, then we’re in the energetic state of flow we call the Miracle Zone, where we’re more open to the miraculous.

    While we can’t “create” miracles, we can create the conditions for miracles to show up more in our lives. As Webster’s dictionary says, “Miracles are a surprise and welcome event that cannot be predicted by science and that are often attributed to Divine Grace.”

    One of the fastest ways to create the conditions that invite miracles is to open the fourth chakra more and to live with greater love and a more open heart.

    Love is what we’re made of; it’s not something we’re supposed to be finding or looking for. It’s inherently who we are. When we drop into that knowing, we start to breathe in a different way — a way that’s associated with recognizing that we belong, that there’s only oneness here. Then we’ll develop more of the consciousness of that state.

    So, you can approach opening the fourth chakra by breathing in a particular way that wakes you up to the parts of you that know you belong, your essence.

    To expand the fourth chakra, here’s a simple, but powerful practice…

    • Begin by breathing in your belly, which activates a part of your nervous system that says all is well.
    • Keep breathing in until you fill the upper lobes of your lungs as well. Then, breathe even bigger. Imagine that you’re bigger than the body.
    • Then exhale out in every direction—above you, below you, to the left, to the right, to the front, and to the back in a big sphere.
    • Then, inhale from every direction right back into your belly.
    • Continue inhaling into the upper lobes of the lungs, and then inhale bigger than the body.
    • Exhale in every direction.
    • Again, inhale from every direction right back into your belly. Inhale into your lungs, upper lobes, and then bigger than the body.
    • Exhale in every direction.
    • Practice this sequence six to eight times, several times a day.

    This spherical breathing puts you in the quantum field, which also happens to be the field where miracles occur.

    The quantum field is beyond logic, and we can access this field by breathing this spherical breath. Practice this several times a day, and you will start to feel very different in the world.

    Notice how it feels for you — we imagine you’ll feel more open in your heart and able to more easily access the love that’s your essence.

    We end this Miracle Moment with a quote from the Upanishads that says…

    “There is a light which shines beyond the world, beyond everything, beyond all, beyond
    the highest heaven. This is the light which shines within your heart.”

    We wish you lots of access to the essence of love that you truly are!

    Please share your experience of this spherical breath in the comments section below and on our Facebook page. What has it elicited in you? We love hearing from you!

  • The Power of the Third Chakra

    The Power of the Third Chakra


    Today’s Miracle Moment is about the third chakra located in the solar plexus area—the energy center of personal power and self-esteem.

    The third chakra relates to the mental body and is energetically associated with your personal power and self-esteem. This third chakra, rotating as a vortex of energy, is in your solar plexus, about three inches above the navel, at the base of the sternum. You can experience your personal power by breathing into and through your solar plexus.

    When we can’t feel and connect with our vital life force in our solar plexus, we have a tendency to jump into our head and start over-thinking, creating “stories” about what’s happening, and getting caught up in those stories and external circumstances.

    The moment you find yourself starting to do that, bring your attention to where your ribs splay apart above your navel and below the sternum.

    To activate the third chakra in your solar plexus, stretch and open this area. You can do this with the following practice…

    • Reach your arms up high and then reach behind you as if you are putting your hands in your back pocket.
    • When you inhale into your belly, stretch this area of your body wide open, extending the spine.
    • Exhale and come back to neutral.

    By doing this simple practice, you’re squeezing the solar plexus area as if it were a sponge. This opens and flushes the tissues in the area and brings life force into the cellular structure, where the cells start to vibrate. This activates the level of consciousness associated with the third chakra, which allows you to still your mind and be open to greater self-love.

    We’ve noticed that a lot of women have issues around self-empowerment—of being in their power. Often, they may not feel as confident to move out into the world, to express their power, to express their ideas, to feel like they have some sovereignty. They may not feel okay to take up space in the world.

    If you have any issues with self-empowerment, with feeling your own sense of power in the world, then doing this practice will help you open up to your inherent power.

    When we have access to our true power–not our fake power, but the authentic power that’s the true essence of who we are–then we’re much more able to live in the Miracle Zone. This is the place where life flows, where we are in tune with the energy of life, where we’re bringing our authentic Self forward and meeting life in miraculous ways.

    We invite you to do this practice for even a minute or two each day–it can make a huge difference in your life. It will open you up to authentic self-esteem and self-love, where you truly feel like you belong and that you are okay.

    We end this Miracle Moment with a beautiful excerpt from a poem called Love After Love by Derek Walcott, a Nobel laureate and writer.

    “The day will come when, with elation, you will greet yourself arriving at your
    own door, in your own mirror…You will love again the stranger who was yourself.”

    May you feel your own power, and may that open you up to the experience of love that you deserve.

    Please share with us on our Facebook page and in the comments section below how you’re feeling as you do this practice.

  • The Power of the Second Chakra

    The Power of the Second Chakra


    Today’s Miracle Moment is about the second chakra—the center of vitality and creativity–which is a major opening to the Miracle Zone.

    Our seven main chakras are vortices of energy, each with a different vibrational frequency that relates to a particular organ and affects associated parts of the body. Since your chakras represent various states of consciousness, as you open and strengthen the chakras, you develop a greater capacity for living in the Miracle Zone.

    The second chakra is associated with your innate creativity and vitality. When it’s open and flowing, you feel very alive and connected to your creativity. When it’s not functioning well, you might have a tightness in the gut or other gut issues and life doesn’t feel as though it’s in the flow.

    The second chakra is in the area of the womb, an area of deep wisdom and creativity, from which we birth children and birth new ideas.

    Bring your consciousness to the area of the second chakra, just below your navel and above the pubic bone. Focus on and allow yourself to breathe into this area, which enlivens your tissues. The energy in that area may begin to vibrate as your wisdom and creativity are activated.

    Wherever breath is, life is. Where your consciousness goes, the energy flows.

    Follow these simple steps to activate your second chakra …

    • Bring your attention to your forehead, the space between your eyes, and inward to the center of the brain.
    • Move your focus of attention down the center of your body as if you’re going down an elevator shaft.
    • Bring your awareness to your belly and breathe in making your belly big.
    • Exhale, pulling your belly back to your spine.
    • Inhale, making your belly big. (Let your belly hang over your belt and pants.)
    • Again, exhale, pulling your belly back to your spine.
    • Continue inhaling, making your belly big and then exhaling, pulling the belly back to your spine.

    Breathing deeply in your belly triggers your nervous system to recognize that all is well, and you can more easefully tap into your creativity. On the other hand, breathing shallowly in the upper lobes of your lungs will trigger the fight or flight stress response, which freezes our creativity, vitality and flow.

    When you tap into your creativity and are connected to vital energy in your life, it’s much easier to feel that you’re in the Miracle Zone. You are feeling your own connection to the flow of the Universe–your vitality is connecting with the vitality of the Universe.

    We invite you to experiment with this practice and let us know what’s happening in your life as you do the practice.

    We end this Miracle Moment with a quote by José Ortega y Gasset, a 20th century Spanish philosopher who said…

    “Love is that splendid triggering of human vitality, the supreme activity
    which nature affords anyone for going out of himself toward someone else.”

    May you feel vital energy and creativity triggered in your life.

  • 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 Healing Power of Nature

    The Healing Power of Nature

    Today’s Miracle Moment is about the healing power of nature…

    Dr. Sue and I (Marci) are in standing in the midst of beautiful nature around us. Whenever we connect deeply with nature, we’re moved by the experience of inner wholeness we feel from that connection.

    We invite you to pay attention to and connect with nature in a different way than you may be used to. Not just in an “Oh, my gosh, look how beautiful that is” way. Instead, experiment with dropping down inside yourself and communing with nature from a deeper place within. You’ll begin to sense the difference between appreciating how amazing nature is and actually feeling a part of it.

    Take a walk in the woods and feel what’s going on. Take a look at a flower growing up from the earth and watch that meticulous, miraculous demonstration of infinite possibility that happens just by nature unfolding. The seasons—spring fall, winter, summer—each of these are different expressions of your own wholeness. Allow what you’re experiencing to be an unfoldment of this miraculous power of nature. When you do, you start to vibrate as Nature herself. As that energy comes more alive in you, infinite possibility pours through.

    When you connect with nature, you connect with your own inner nature. It’s healing, relaxing, opening, expanding.

    Now, you may not live in a place where there’s a lot of nature around you. Yet, wherever we are, there’s some nature to connect with—the sky, the stars, the sun, the clouds, the rain. Allow yourself to feel connected to nature all around you, and you will feel more connected to your own inner nature.

    There is a wholeness that is trying to pour through you. Allow your wholeness to reveal itself and to shine.
    We leave you with a great quote by Albert Einstein…

    “Look deeply into nature and you will understand everything better.”

    We send you much love and wishes this week for feeling deeply connected to the nature around you and to your own inner nature.
