Play

Play is not just for children. Adults that never play become very stale in your everyday life. Your creativity is on a starvation diet. Play is how people create new businesses, new ideas, write novels, articles, paint and create art. Writing poetry. Allows more money to come through the door.

It can be a form a meditation too. Play can be done indoors or outdoors. It is a way to problem solve, its much harder to brain storm for solutions when you always under stress. It allows you to actually relax and just be. I allows things to start to flow and come to you naturally.

It allows people to share together time too. This time of connecting to yourself and finding out who you are again. We can get lost in the fast lane of life with the constant responsibilities. Play allows you to actually breathe. A lot of us have forgotten how to actually breathe, relax and play.

When we never take time for ourselves, we start to lose our identity of who we are? It can take a long time to explore that journey when you've lost that connection with yourself. We start to buy into the labels that people put on us. By playing, we are allowing ourselves to just be! To just exist and escape from all the drama and pressure of everyday life. It allows us to find another way to express ourselves and find solutions to make ourselves happier.

It helps us examine if we are truly happy or just going through the motions. If you start to see patterns that keep repeating in your life. Take a step back and see if you see the connection to why or what is making this happen. Allow yourself to take the time to play with different solutions to it and try some different things. If one thing doesn't work. You can always try a different approach. Play also allows us to take time to check in with ourselves to see if we are happy or not. What makes our soul sing? What makes you feel like your trudging through mud? Just take the time to see what answers come to you.

Meditation

I have found that finding the right music to get you into a meditative state is important. Sometimes you will require music and other times complete silence is desired.

As I am writing this I am feeling my guides and angels working on my right shoulder. Lately I have seen more geometric shapes when I meditate. This brings me more inner peace.

There were times in the past that I could not seem to just sit and meditate. Earlier I would take walks in parks because nature seemed to fill the gap and allow me to hear the messages that I needed to hear to make decisions.

Meditation has allowed me to quiet the mind and release any fears that I would have had in the past. I am feeling more at peace than I have in my life. I can go about my life with ease and not get locked into the drama of other peoples' lives. Meditation is not looked at as a chore, but as a delicious treat.
