In May remember the 3 M’s
Happy month of May!
During today’s meditation we were reminded of the spiritual and symbolic meanings associated with the month of May and we hope that you approach it with a feeling of rejuvenation and positive vibrations for good fortune!
For some of us that have been social distancing and quarantining for the past couple months, this has been a time of self-reflection, building connections and exploring our creative sides. For others it has been a time of loneliness, isolation and wondering if there is a light at the end of the tunnel. When we are forced into situations that cause us to have to look within ourselves for strength and support it allows us to understand the true nature of our inner power.
As we read the stories of some of the most famous prophets that have walked this Earth we are reminded that their “enlightenment” came during moments of solitude and isolation. One of the stories of Buddha’s enlightenment told that while sitting under a sacred Bhodi tree, he realized spiritual enlightenment as he began to meditate alone. In the bible, Luke 4:1 says “And Jesus, full of the holy spirit, returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit for forty days in the wilderness". As we continue to walk on the path of our own spiritual enlightenment, finding moments of solitude to go within ourselves is one of the key ways that we are able to feel the Divine energy that flows through us, and connect with the Essence of the God of our hearts so we can obtain our own enlightenment.
In the month of May challenge yourself to connect with your inner power by using some of the techniques below:
Meditate: Use your grounding tools and golden sun to remove negative energy and bring positive divine energy into your space.
Move: Find ways to stay active. Whether it’s through exercise, yoga or walking the trails, find ways to keep your body active and healthy.
Mingle: Find ways to connect with others. Always remember that we were put here on this planet with others so we can help and support each other through our individual journeys. Always remember you are never alone and you are well supported by the Universe and your guides.
We look forward to a month of growth, love and lots of success!
