Cultivate Your Noble Intentions Now
Spring is the season where we plant the seeds of those noble aspirations we want to bring to fruition, and begin to nurture them until they grow into strong and resilient manifestations.
What you choose to plant--in your consciousness and your actions--is of vital consideration during this fertile time of year.
In that light, today I offer you my 6 core messages. Any or all of these can offer inspiration to take action on something that is truly important in life.
1. Your life is your path. This means your WHOLE life. The good the bad and the ugly. You don't have to deny any part of you. Embrace it all. You don’t have to look for a “path” to follow (like I did for 10 years in a formal experience as a monk, for instance), you are invited to focus on what comes up in front of you and take that as your sacred duty and highest spiritual lesson of the day. This is the most holy thing you can focus on because it is coming directly from life to your unique individual experience. It will be different from everyone else, because YOU are different from everyone else.
2. Breath is the greatest tool of transformation and life balance. It is the confluence of the Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual dimensions of Life. From my experiences on the spiritual path, to my emotional liberation, to my physical maintenance, the breath has played a central role in balancing and enhancing the energy that propels life forward. It is simple, accessible to all, and you can take it with you and use it anytime you need it!
3. Your body is intelligent it knows what to do for healing. This is foundational to the understanding of thriving in health and vitality. The body is always seeking homeostasis—the optimal internal and external balance for thriving in the world. If you “feed” the body five basics nutritive elements: proper hydration, proper oxygenation, proper nutrition, regular exposure to sun on the skin, and regular movement (some call “exercise”), the body will take care of the rest. Stick to the basics!
4. Evolution is the name of the game. Eastern philosophies say that Creation is Gods’ Lila, or play. That means we are existing in a big game. The objective is to return “home.” However, “home” is not an external place, it is an internal state. Evolving our consciousness to create the experience of “Heaven” is how we “win” the game. We don’t have to wait until we leave this planet to achieve this. It is meant to be created right here on this earthly plane.
5. Relationships are the “field” in which the game is played. Relationships are where the lessons that evolve our consciousness are created, experienced and resolved. All relationships are a mirror of the most important relationship: the relationship with your Self. Communication is the primary tool that evolves our relationships, and respect is the key ingredient that makes communication effective if it is present, and completely ineffectual if it is absent.
6. It’s all Love. We come from one Source. That Source is the energy of Love. We are created from that Source, so our essence is Love. Expressing our true essence by being motivated by Love in all we do is how we evolve (see number 4).
All the inspirations and offerings that I present to you are geared to align you with these principles. I have found that when I am aligned with these ideas, life flows fully and freely, with love, peace and joy spontaneously emanating from the heart. I want that for me, and I want that for YOU!
Here’s to your upward evolution!
Blessings, Christian
