Energy Flows
Change for me has been a scary concept far too often.  I am slow to relinquish where I am and slow to embrace the new.  Slow to take the next step and move out of the comfort of the known. Yet change is one of the constants in life. It is with us everyday from the hands on the clock moving to each breath we take.  Each moment is different from the next, each inhalation and exhalation different from the one before.

Reflections and Lessons
The landscape for most people has changed, at least a bit if not dramatically, with the advent of the pandemic. With shelter at home decrees or just plain wanting to stay safe, what was perceived as a ‘normal’ daily routine quickly became a thing of the past. For me there was a period of time that it felt like the Earth was holding her breath as we figured out how to navigate living in a world with the threat of a deadly foe that was unseen and virtually undetectable.

Mindfulness
The past few weeks, as I have reflected back on my choice for my guiding word for 2020, I have chuckled at the seeming irony of it right now.  The word was ‘light’ and little did I know the path ahead was going to become so dim at times.  I remember choosing ‘light’ to remind myself the sun always rises and to let go of the heavy energies that cling.  I chose it to remind myself I have the power to reclaim my joy and lightheartedness in life.  I chose it as a reminder there is always hope and to help make the path clear on my journey. Most of all, however, I chose light for 2020 to remind myself we are all meant to shine for who we are and not hide our true selves from the world.
