What happens when you lose yourself?
So you are going through life and struggling to keep it together. This seems to be a norm in our society today. As a society we are struggling with job losses, oil spills and a negative barrage of news. It is easy to get to the point where you forget who you are, what you believe and where you want to go in life because the overwhelming negativity around us can block our vision, fill our soul with pain and bring us down.
It is easy to get to where we are lax in our spiritual practice. This has happened to me lately. I have noticed that I feel distant and disconnected. One of the things that I have been remiss in doing are my morning pages . I have found over the years that doing my morning pages brings me peace throughout the day, increases my creativity and relieves a ton of stress - so why on earth wouldn't I do them every day? Is it because it gives me a snapshot of what is going on in my head and I fear what I think? Is it because it is easier to not face the truth? I honestly have no answers. I am back to doing them and I feel much better because of it. I use the last page of my morning pages to list the things that I am grateful for and why I am grateful for that person, item or adventure.
I find that when I focus some on what I am grateful for in my life I tend to look at my life differently. It gives me a better perspective and brings me closer to the Goddess because I am acknowledging the gifts that I already have in my life. It also gives me a way to see what I need to bring into my life, giving me a focus of what I need to improve and or focus on to improve myself, my life and my chosen path.
I highly recommend that everyone investigate the use of morning pages. If you are lost and disconnected it may just be the answer.
Until next time may your life be blessed!
