Heal Yourself

Infuse healing energy into yourself, into your being. For too long, we've

been attracted to things that drain us, exhausting our body, depleting our

soul. That time has passed.

The world is a spa, a nature retreat, a wealth of healing

resources. Pour Epsom salts and essential oils into your bath. Sit quietly

by a tree or in a garden. Walk around the block in your neighborhood. Spend

an afternoon in a nearby park or a day at the lake or beach. Throw stones

into the river while you sit on the bank contemplating the eternal stream of

life. Allow beautiful music to quietly imbue the stillness with healing

instead of the pounding of your mind. Light a fire and awaken that darkened

hearth to glowing flames and soothing warmth.

Rise from your bed early in the morning. Open the curtains. Watch

the sunrise. Feel the sunrise. Let it infuse you with its message. Let it

energize you, invigorate you, fill you with life. At day's end return to the

window. Or step outside. Watch the sun set. Absorb its changing colors

spreading out beyond the horizon. Feel how it changes the earth and all it

touches.

Pet a puppy, stroke a piece of velvet, listen to a symphony. If

you can't slow down long enough to absorb the energy the first time, do it a

second and a third. Absorb revitalizing energy until you can hear your voice,

hear your heart tell you what would feel good, what would bring peace, what

would bring stillness and joy. Before long, doing what brings healing and joy

will become as natural as it used to be to do what drains, tires, depletes,

and exhausts.

It isn't enough to draw near to the light. Absorb

it into you. Let it charge you and change you

with its energy and its power. Healing is all

around you. Wherever you are, whatever your

resources, healing, energy, and joy are there.
