Consciously ending today

Today's I am going to practice consciously ending my day - to take 5 minutes to sit and let the day process; 5 minutes to write in my journal.

It has been very easy to  (ha! who am I kidding) I have finally reached the point where my day's beginning is well established. I connect with body and spirit, I stretch, I journal, I reiki. I have quick practices and long, in depth practices depending on how much time I have.

It is time to really work on my end of day practice. I think this will help the processing of events and feelings and lessons. And I think it will help me get out of bed the next morning, because I'll be more ready to begin the project of the new day, instead of still dwelling on the unfinished business of the old.

So today, I am planning to practice consciously ending my day.

I hope you're having a great day!

...Breathing, Allowing, Acknowledging

...Manifesting with eyes wide open

how does it feel, to live life, daily life, with the money that I want to have?

...Being in the Body

Meandering about being in body - and the need to be in the body in order to affect the physical world.

... Out of Isolation

Apologies for the sound, we're still working on it.

Ramblings about money, worth, and how manifesting money requires ending my isolation.

I Am

Today I am going to practice being. Just being.

I'm pretty sure I've practiced this before.

But it takes a lot of focus, strangely, to just be.

Not to be a specific thing. Not to have the shield of purpose or the armor of occupational identity. Just to be.

Not even to be me, Lila Allen, with all the labels and adjectives I have accumulated over the years.

Just to be.

Today, I am.

Not beating the horse

Today I am going to practice not beating the horse.

I realize the phrase is "not beating a dead horse", but my horse is very much alive, thank you. Or my boat, car, unicorn, river... whatever vehicle is carrying my through this part of life's journey. It is alive and well, and it knows where I'm going. It is picking it's way along the path. All I have to do is be aware and open to the experience.

So, today I am going to practice allowing myself to be carried. Allowing myself to be in the moment. Allowing myself to receive information from the moment.

Today I am going to practice NOT drumming my heels against the horse's flank; NOT urging it to go faster, trying to reach something I recognize; NOT trying to puzzle out the destination. And NOT creating huge plans on possibilities.

We are all going through transformations. Every moment we are all learning and choosing. And some things we cannot know or be part of until someone else has made their choice. The truth of the moment changes by moment. And frankly, for me, when I try and connect with something too far in the future, I get a headache and I have to lie down and nothing gets done,

So I am going to relax. And allow myself to be carried forward. And make the decisions that need to be made in the moment. And try things that come up. And not try others.

And I am NOT going to beat the horse.

I hope you have a great day!
