PUT YOUR EGO ON A DIET :
The mind loves to control us and be in the “driver’s seat”. The busy mind will do anything to keep us from stillness . The Ego feeds off of negative thought and fears. Negative thinking has become a comfort zone of so many people today. The ego is a great part of our human experience and we must be aware of its trickery .If you’re a busy person and have tried meditation, you know how hard it is to quiet the mind. Our ego is always gabbing our “small mind”, telling us stories that play into our fears.

For my beginners , please place your hands over your heart. Feel yourself breathe and slowly allow your breath to drop into your heart space. Imagine all of the thoughts in your mind and allow them to come into the heart. Take some very deep, slow breaths and feel love from your hands going into your heart. Give yourself a few moments to feel compassion for yourself and others. I often end my meditation with a prayer of thanks and gratitude to my heavenly father and as I pray for my soul I pray for the world. Just giving thanks to our higher power sets your intention for great things to come.
Visualize your life and all of the things you’ve already accomplished, even the things that you don’t believe are worthy of recognition . Feel how much you matter, just because you are here and you exist in the world. Without self-judgment or belittling yourself, simply feel love and compassion for yourself and all of your life experiences and most of all known your enough. Know that God has a plan for your life and that the greatest tragedies with faith and perseverance can lead to the greatest victories.
I leave you with this never see any event as a miss or a failure only receive it as a beautiful lesson that leads to a better more unstoppable version of you.
