  • Pride with humility keeps the heart tender

    Pride with humility keeps the heart tender

    As we go on with our lives , our pride hardens our hearts, it hardens our being.
    When it hardens our being, it becomes very difficult to experience joy.

    The sages say, if you go inside and merge with the truth, you reconnect.
    As you reconnect, you become love, you become the truth.

    Pride with humility keeps the heart tender, honors our greatness; pride that lacks humility hardens. 

    Meditation, gives pause to our habitual tendencies so that we can choose a new.
    Meditate to reconnect, to come into alignment with the Truth.

    In that space, lives peace, joy, love, courage, discernment …
    Meditate, to know That which is temporally obscured, but never absent.

  • A – B – C – D ‘s of getting out of your mind

    We all go through challenging times in life when you really feel like you are never going to be able to move on and feel better.

    This is a trick for a too busy mind, when feeling down in the dumps.

    A – Acknowledge

    Accept that you are feeling down and that it’s OK!

    B – Breathe

    Sometimes when we are going through hard times we forget to breathe, taking a few calming breaths will automatically bring you back to the present moment.

    C – Curious

    Be eager to learn about why you are feeling this way?

    D – Distract

    Get busy doing things that will keep you in the middle meaning not going down to on the negative side. When you are having a hard time being positive is usually pretty impossible and we tend to head towards the dumps where everything is dark. Distract your self to stay as much as possible in the neutral space.

    For me things like working out, binge watching my favorite Netflix show and working ( I love my job) works. I really have to make an effort to not have too much free time while I go through hard times. Not to run away from them I am just temporarily moving them back to a place because I might need them later in life. Just so I can have a little Middle time and gain some energy for life.

    This is how I picture it so when I say staying in the neutral place I am meaning to stay in the middle of your emotional state.

     NEUTRAL IS OK!!
