Delhi and Connecticut; Is There a Connection?

As individuals we can refuse to heed the gentle messages being sent to us from a higher source that our lives are moving in the wrong direction or are out of alignment with our true life plan. That higher source for you may be God, The Universe or as in my belief, your own Spirit. If we refuse to listen to these gentle messages, the messages get louder and louder until we can’t ignore them. The loudest messages have a ‘rip the rug out from under you’ dynamic. They are messages that tell us that change not only needs to happen, but will happen.

The Difference Between Fire and Anger

There is a difference between Fire and Anger.

I've been looking at it a lot this past week because, well, a lot of people are angry, or is it that they have fire?

Here's how I see the two:

Anger comes from a primitive place within us. For me, I see it rooted in our reptilian brain at the base of our skull, the aspect of our brain which which dictates our most primitive responses. Anger is an energy that overtakes us, taking control of our words, our actions even our body. We are unconscious when we are overcome by anger or as the saying goes 'blinded by anger.' It is an energy that is situated in the head.

Did You Know...?

Did you know that often we unconsciously mirror back the energy and feelings of others, energies like anger and frustration.

It doesn't make us any less responsible for our actions and this mirroring nature only serves to make our lives and the world around us unpleasant and unhappy.

Since we have this natural ability to mirror energy, why not choose to hold a space of love, peace and understanding?

Maybe others will start to mirror that back?

Give it a try - rather than mirroring someone else's bad mood or unhappiness; radiate your own happiness and joy and see if it ripples out to create a difference in the lives of others (and yours).

Things I learned this week...

This week I learned that Cardinals live in groups of 8 or 12 during the winter, but during the spring they are territorial. The male Cardinal feeds the babies while the female prepares the next nest.

I also learned that Red Squirrels are territorial and many don't survive because of this (they don't find their own territory.)  This being said a mama red squirrel can gift a portion of her territory to her child.

There are ripples in the natural order of things...

...that birds know in the scarcity of winter to work and live together, but in the plenty and 'work'  of spring and summer, to create their own space.

...that squirrels can be giving.
