Creating Awareness


Almost all forms of spiritual practice come down to one thing: the more we bring our individual lives into alignment with the whole of existence, the more we feel nourished and at peace.

Awareness practices can help connect that alignment. They are designed to help quiet the busy mind, relax the body, and bring a sense of attunement with existence. Prayer, meditation, and ritual meals are all common awareness practices found in many religions and spiritual traditions. 

As you deepen your connection to the greater processes of life, you may find yourself coping with stress and emotions more easily, relating more lovingly with others, and finding more job in life.

Be still for several minutes in the morning and take the time to think grateful thoughts about all of the blessings you have in your life. When you are grateful for your life, family, health, body, job, etc., continued blessings come your way. Work on thinking more positively and turning all negative thoughts into more positive ones. You will love what happens from there!

All is well,
Dr. M
