“Birthing is never easy or without pain, be it change, a child, or a fresh start in life. Contraction precedes expansion. Darkness comes before dawn. Joy follows pain. This is the way of things.” – John Mark Green
This time of year when we all have long lists, jobs and festivities to attend, our mind can contract and we can forget to create expansion and space within.
When I open my mind and heart to the deepest oceans and expanses of space. I find peace and a place to rest my busy mind.
Expansive Meditation
Close you eyes. Focus on your third eye between your brows. Visualize either the vast ocean, the sky or outer space before you. Open your mind and travel into that spaciousness. See yourself expand within that space, let yourself be taken as you move through its lightness. Take some deep breaths in and out. Feel your body relax. Repeat anytime during the festive season!
LIVING IN THIS MOMENT

I am trying hard to effortlessly focus (an oxymoron) on the Divine flow in all things during this season. To effort less and allow more:).
That’s all we can do each day! Some days are easier than others!! Hope you get to nurture and rest soon Kristine 💕
Wishing you the same :-).

Karen your place is a place for me to stop, breathe and be still awhile contemplating the joy of peace and space. Gosh I love your way.
You are always so thoughtful Kath! I love having you visit and share in this world. Thankyou 💚💚
Likewise dear Karen, I know if we lived close we would definitely grab a coffee and catch up in person. This year I am making a better effort to surround myself in positive souls, in friendships and online buddies like you.
Thanks Kath! You.are always welcome here and I’m sure we would catchup and connect if we could 🙏🏻
