What Will You Pack?

Imagine packing for a 40 day hike in the desert – just you and a friend and your back packs. What do you pack? Truth is, I have no idea! But this was my dream last night and I found myself asking some powerful questions that just might be helpful at those times when life seems overwhelming, heavy, full of unknowns. They may even be helpful today, as you pack for whatever journey you face. Consider things, yes, but go beyond things and think about habits, activities, thoughts, beliefs, relationships. Ponder:

 

What is a critical, MUST have?
What is a luxury?
What will I release?

What is the purpose of the journey?

What Am I To Learn?

Ever find yourself in a situation that doesn’t match your expectations or desires? Maybe it’s a new job or boss that is nothing like you’d anticipated. Maybe the day ahead is full of responsibility and you woke up sick and tired. What is your default behavior at times like this? Complain, quit, get ugly?

You have a style, a flair. You have an energy, qualities combined in a way that only you can manifest. Do you?

 What’s YOUR style?

BE YOU NOW!

Sky Watching

Sky watching … not cloud watching. Take a moment to imagine – or go outside – and soak up the entirety of the sky: wide blue expanse in which the sun, moon, planets and stars, the ever changing clouds, the snow, rain, lightning and thunder, rainbows, exist. The sky holds all of it – allowing it to be and flow, come and go, shift and change, speak loudly or not at all.

What if you could experience life as sky?
What is your ever-present sun?
What clouds could you allow more easefully?
What rainbows would you notice and appreciate more deeply?
What does it feel like to be blue sky?
