If we allow ourselves to see. to arrive in the here and the now. to open to the synchronicities at play. If we continually give ourselves the gift of this moment. this breath, we will gently move with the flow of the universe.
Today was such that day for me…after doing some computer recon, I left the house with the intention of hiking the North Mountain National trail. The directions via AllTrails landed me in a sea of parking lots overflowing with cars.
I sigh of disappointment leaves my body. However, I decide to check the trail map anyway, learning that I am not even close to the the trail I was hoping to hike. With some irritation rising in my chest, I choose to stay here and hike the Mohave trail. I begin the hike feeling deflated and kind of frustrated. Part way up I pause, I choose to gift myself this moment. this breath. As I hike I realize, there is no one else on the trail.
I feel his wave of calm come over me, although this is a shorter hike than planned. The trail is quiet. I casually hike my way to the ridge line. I sit at the top to find stillness within as I hear the soft hum of the traffic below.
In stillness one can hear their thoughts with more clarity and less chaos. One can discern more accurately the thoughts that do not serve their higher being. Use this discernment to let go of those thoughts. to bring forth thinking that serves, lifts, and supports your whole being.
