Almost every morning I pull three cards from my Goddess Divination deck.  I like to see whose energy is around and it opens another pathway to peace.  I really use it as daily guidance and support.

This morning I pulled Abundantia, a favorite, along with Kuan Yin and Mary Magdalene.  I was surprised – abundance coupled with love and stillness.  Abundance and stillness?  I always think of abundance as action, not stillness.  Something has to be off – I pull another card – Sige, quiet time.  I laugh out loud, ok, Spirit I hear you – love, stillness and abundance.

I sit down and look around at where I am at this moment.  I am sitting in the life I created from deep within.  We’ve just moved back home to Vermont to a gorgeous home on the lake.  It’s stupid – fantastic.  Beyond expectation.  I look at the fire I lit early this morning in the sitting room fireplace.  I feel it nourish my soul.  I’m so tired and I can just lay my head down on the sofa…I do. 

I smile from deep within – love, abundance and stillness.  Right here, right now, no far off place, but here today.  Grace surrounds me and I sit sink deeply into peace…

There are periods in everyone’s life when things feel as though they are zooming by.  That instead of making life happen with your choices, you are reacting to the events and people around you.  Maybe you are even off-balance and sometimes, not reacting from your best self.  Try these few tricks to get back to present and be your best self again.

1.  Meditate for two – ten minutes,  focus on your breath

2.  Go for a walk or if you haven’t the time, just walk barefooted in the grass or backyard

3.  Pull a card from a divination pack – Angel, Animal, Goddess, Flower, whatever – read it and hear the words inside.

4.  Take a shower or bath

5.  Eat fresh fruit or veggies

6.  Finally, bring the focus completely back to you with these two questions; what am I avoiding by wasting time?  And Why?
