When we first encounter an unknown in our life, we struggle with our fears. We wrestle with finding “the right answer”. Anxiety, frustration, and often tears accompany this process. We feel irritable and, secretly, a bit crazed. But all this wrestling does not imply we are stuck, have a “problem”, or have done anything wrong. […]
Freedom is found in our choice to care about our energy.
There have been several times in my life when I questioned God, how long until… I knew about the law of attraction. I knew about setting goals and visualization. I knew about affirmations.
