Allowing Our Light To Shine
There are times when we may not feel at our best
and brightest. At those times we can take a look at what we might
do to let our inner light shine to the fullest. Because we are
physical, mental and spiritual beings, we need to determine where
our spiritual light is being filtered or blocked. We can work from
the outside inward, knowing that we are the only ones with the
power to dim our lights, and as we clear away the layers we can
get out of our own way to feel the warmth of our own light shining
again.
As vehicles for our mind and spirit, our bodies require proper
maintenance. Caring for ourselves is like polishing--helping to
clear away the accumulation of physical debris that keeps us from
operating at our fullest capacity. A simple shift in our thoughts
can positively affect our mental state, moving from complaints to
gratitude and applying the powerful light of love to any shadowy
thoughts. A change of scenery can allow us to see the world in new
ways too.
Once we are free of our restrictions, we can become still and
connect to the power at the center of our being. It is always
there for us, but when we forget to connect, or siphon our power
in too many directions, we cannot make the most of our energy.
Starting from the inside out may direct us to take the right steps
for our journeys back to the light, but sometimes it can be
difficult to find the stillness if our bodies and minds are in the
way. As we practice steps to keep our energy flowing freely and
without obstruction, we shine our light brightly, illuminating our
own paths and making the world around us glow as well.
