Do What Excites You

We can all fall into the motions of life, and trying something exciting can be just the spice you need.

Each human life has the potential to be dramatic, thrilling, and awe-inspiring. Our lives are, in truth, ours to design. Each day, we make choices that influence the character of our experiences, and our decisions determine whether our paths are rousing or tedious, breathtaking or tiresome. We can create an exciting life by simply doing what animates us whenever the opportunity presents itself. Your passions may ebb and flow. What brings you great joy one year may not excite you the next, but when you make excitement a regular part of your existence, life becomes more fun and more fulfilling.

If you are somebody who tends to live practically, excitement may overwhelm you at first. To ease the anxiety that prevents you from incorporating all that you find exciting into your life, acknowledge that you are alive right now, and remember that every moment matters. When you choose to do more of what thrills you, even if your choices require you to make certain sacrifices, your daily life will soon be imbued with exhilaration, pleasure, and optimistic anticipation.

To understand what excites you, you may need to observe and ponder your reaction to the activities, events, circumstances, and concepts that make up your life. What makes your pulse race? What makes you want to get out of your chair and take action? Try to avoid getting too wrapped up in life’s details; that tedium may cause you to plod through your existence unaware of prospective excitement. Once you have created a substantial list, find ways to integrate each item into your routine. You will soon find yourself riding a wave of excitement that lifts you up and makes life truly worth living.

True

Life goes on ...with or without everything you thought you needed.

With or without people staying.
With or without the love you expected.
With or without closure.

It doesn’t pause for your pain.
And that’s not cruel ...it’s truth.

Because it teaches you where your strength really lies.

You came alone. You’ll leave alone.

So build a life that stands on you.

Peace is an inside job.
Growth begins when you stop waiting
and start choosing yourself, every single day.

Deeper Meanings

It's not always for us to know the deeper meaning of everything that occurs in our life.

All of us who seek to be conscious and aware regard our experiences as teachers, and we try to discern what lessons we are learning from the things that happen in our lives. Sometimes, the lesson is very clear from the get-go, and other times, we have to search to understand the deeper meaning behind an event. While this search often yields results, there also comes a point in the search when what we really need to do is move forward. It is possible that we are not meant to know the deeper meaning of certain occurrences. Answers may come later in our lives or as a result of letting go. Or maybe, they never come.

We are all part of a complex system of being, and things work themselves out in the system as a whole. Sometimes, we are just playing a necessary part in that process and the result is larger than we can understand. It may have very little to do with us personally, and while that can be hard to understand, it can also free us from overthinking the matter. We can see it in terms of karma, a past debt we have been able to repay, or as the clearing of energy. We can simply thank the event for being part of our experience and let it go. This completes the process that the occurrence has made possible.

To make this letting go official, we can perform a ritual, make a final journal entry on the subject, or sit in meditation with the intention of releasing the event from our consciousness. As we do so, we summon it one last time, honoring it with our attention, thanking it, and saying good-bye. We then let it go out the door, out the window, out the top of our heads, or into the Earth through the bottoms of our feet, liberating ourselves from any burden we have carried in association with it.

Fall in love with your life on purpose.

Stop waiting for big achievements to feel happy.
Start creating small moments that feel good.

Wake up early.
Step outside.
Enjoy your coffee.
Move your body.
Wear what makes you feel confident.

These simple things are not small... they are the foundation of a beautiful life.

Happiness is built daily, not someday.

Create a life you don’t need to escape from.

Because when you start appreciating the little moments, you realize your life is already worth loving.

The Grounding Ritual of Sound Bathing

More than a wellness experience, sound bathing offers a nourishing way to renew and replenish your body, mind, and spirit.

Singing is an act of vibration. It takes music from the realm of the unformed — whether that is in your mind or from that magical space of inspiration — and moves it from within to without. From the first breath, singing moves the energy in a circular way inside your body. As the breath fills your lungs, it brushes against the second and third chakras — the centers of creation and honoring self and others. Instead of merely exhaling, singing pushes the air past the fourth and fifth chakras where heart chakra and the center of will and intention reside, engaging both the heart and mind. Sound vibrations from vocal chords resonate in the sinus cavities, filling the head with motion and sound while the brain lights up with the processing of the mathematics of music. This marriage of activities brings the third eye into play and opens the door for inspiration from the crown chakra before sending the sound out into the world.

Once the vibration begins, it is sustained with each note, moving throughout your body and the space around you. This can help you to harmonize your frequency with the world and with the divine. The use of the voice can bring about catharsis, a cleansing from the expression of emotion, which is why we feel better after singing certain types of songs. All of this occurs even if we are not conscious of what we are singing, but when we really connect with an intention, the power of the voice and music together are powerful tools in creation.

Even if you are not a singer by nature or talent, you are not left out. If you have a voice, it is your birthright to celebrate life with song. It doesn’t matter if you don’t feel you have a nice voice. Chanting or humming, singing solo or with others, your voice is yours to enjoy. Whether you sing along to the radio or use vocalization as part of your meditation time, singing and harmonizing are healing activities that bring your body’s vibrations into alignment with the universe.
