All of us, at some point in our lives, have made choices, acted upon, allowed things in our lives, and done things that were not in alignment with who we truly are at our core.
I refer to this often as saying ‘yes’ when our hearts and bodies are screaming ‘no’. And it’s one of, if not THE, most important things we can finally embrace and practice as adults.
I wish we’d teach this to our children but it’s challenging to teach to kids something we don’t already know and embrace for ourselves. Perhaps one day…
Today’s exploration was during a recent little hike I did with Charlie, the neighbor doodle. I give a little background (maybe too much but hey, I’m a girl…I have a LOT of words to use every day! 😏) and then I explore the idea of really acting and choosing based on our hearts.
Long story short, his stewards (we don’t own dogs or anything else for that matter) don’t want him to leave their property let alone go for a hike with me, but he did and it was wonderful.
Enjoy the invitation to be present with what’s true in your heart and who you are at your core because as many of us have learned, and are still learning, when there is a disconnect between what we do and what we really want, we get really messy as human beings.
I’d love to hear about an area of your own life where you were out of alignment but realized it was causing pain in your being and how you got yourself back to your core essence.
I offer you presence in all things. Thanks for being here…I appreciate you and always remember that our presence IS our biggest present!
