Patience

PATIENCE: Day 32: MARCH 2

Patience is elusive when we chase it. The truth of patience is that it is derived from the atmosphere of loving that surrounds us when we are connected to ourselves and others. When we are given a few moments in our day, (waiting in a line, sitting in traffic) using those moments to nurture ourselves with our breath and gain a sense of spacious perfection, even when we feel rushed, can give us a renewed experience that all is well. You are the love that you are being as you trust the perfection of the unfolding of your day. All my love ~ Katherine ❤️

Today’s Practice: When your plans seem delayed, choose to be patient by identifying 3 ways that you could use the space created giving something of yourself. ❤️

When we want to encourage or embrace qualities in each other or ways of being that really work, praise gives us an avenue to support others with our love. I bless you all and appreciate your loving hearts and loving intentions ~ Katherine ❤️

Amends

AMENDS: Day 30: February 28

Making Amends is a Practice in Humility. To approach another from a place of vulnerability and care, to hold ourselves in love as we do them, is a big task. To see the divinity in us both and be willing to make any reparations necessary to re-balance the situation, is a task of our human Spirit. This action is one of the hardest to master as we will find it easy to judge ourselves for our trespass and then lose our connection to our loving. We must stay in love with ourselves as we admit a momentary loss of our awareness of our divinity in any action that we took that hurt, harmed or diminished another in any way. From Love, we could never work against each other I know that is true of me and you. Let us say in prayer together that we are sorry for any trespass to another, and ask that we may be given an opportunity to resolve it with the healing that is called for from us. All my love to you ~ Katherine❤️

Today’s Practice: “Make Amends. Apologize to someone you may have hurt and make it meaningful by restoring anything that you can heal, fix or return to wholeness.”❤️

Forgiveness

FORGIVENESS: Day 29: February 27

Forgiveness is not a simple act but in many ways a reorientation to life itself. As we remember that life dwells within us all as a sacred gift, we turn within and wonder deeply about how it could come to be that someone would choose to hurt or harm us. As our compassion rises and reminds us of times we have been unkind or caused hurt, we see that we were, even then, doing our best at that moment based on how we were thinking, conditioned and how much fear was arising in us. While the behavior is not condoned nor accepted, the “letting go” of the story of the other’s inexcusable self or unworthiness of our love, frees up our love once again. When we judge another, even one who has hurt us, we cannot freely love ourselves. Compassion for all leads us to wonder and be able to see with love, even when we must hold a boundary to uncaring behavior. This is very hard work and yet a gift each of us deserves from each other and ourselves. All is forgiven in Love your innocence is reclaimed. All my love as we travel this terrain together each day~ Katherine❤️

Today’s Practice: There are more important things than remembering a hurt. write a letter to forgive someone and move on with life. You do not have to mail the letter. ❤️

Deep Listening

In doing my Nonviolence Practice of Deep Listening for today, I chose to listen within. I am learning to listen and cooperate with what I am guided to do.

Just after Wayne left for an evening meeting, I was feeling a bit at loose ends, no reading, no tv, rest was what seemed right and I sensed a call to lie down on the floor. On the same floor, and almost in the same place I fell…
Two hours have passed as I have been immersed in a loving power guiding me gently and with my breath to move slowly and carefully into the healing of my head, neck, and shoulder. This guidance was not from my thoughts or my ideas but impulses to move that came to me through my surrender to a sense of love surrounding me in the moment. It has been the most extraordinary experience.

As a bodyworker I have had these experiences with and through others I was serving. This was a first through a deep listening within and for myself.

When I say Love is Everything I mean it. Everything. ♥️

And it is here for You, as You, with You, and through you.

It is me. It is you. It is All. ♥️

Listening

LISTENING: Day 28: February 26

Ah Listening, an art and gift of profound value to those who cross our path. As we center into ourselves and listen fully with our hearts open and our minds clear, we are giving respect to the other person. Listening deeply we hear beyond words, we love beyond judgment, we begin to know another and what matters to them. What could be more precious than that? Have you given yourself the gift of listening this deeply to yourself? I hope you will my love, Katherine❤️

Today’s Practice: Stop what you are doing and listen to the feelings behind someone’s words to you. Be fully present to the conversation showing them that you are interested in what they are saying. ❤️

Respect

RESPECT: Day 25: February 23

Seeing each other with Respect and Honoring each other with our Words is a Deeply Sacred Act. When we see others from our darkness and judge and ridicule them, we cast our shadow on them and stand in the way of them seeing their light. When we allow ourselves to see others as they truly are and we share what we see generously from our hearts, we allow everyone to see themselves in the light and the holiness (wholeness) they are. As you do this today notice the light that magnifies you bot, all my love ~ Katherine ❤️

Today’s Practice: “Respect yourself and others by not using any put-downs or judgments in your speech.”
