How Can Feelings Help You?
page 16
Fretting over stones in one’s path is like wishing fruit did not have seeds. Seeds have value in that they bring forth the fruit. Feelings have value. Turning them over to Inspiration Within reveals their true value for then what lies beneath the feelings comes to the surface – into conscious awareness. . . Feelings are not to be removed from our consciousness, rather noted and felt, like the passing of an inner breath and relinquished so a new breath may come into being. Nothing more, nothing less are feelings.
Is The Kid In You Calling You To Play In
The Land of Inspiration?
Feelings can rise up from our kid self and draw us into our kid. The kid in us, aside from being playful, can be stuck in past hurts, confusion, and trauma.
So, today I share the KIDS CAN PAUSE PRACTICE.

P.S.
I just followed the Inspiration I received below in practicing. My feeling landscape has shifted. I am taking care of myself.
PAUSE FEELING
PRACTICE
Right now, pause. What’s on your mind that is pulling on you? What feelings are showing up? For example, I realized in the middle of the night that I have way too many projects on my plate – all seeming to have equal priority. I feel overwhelmed and over-committed. How did I let this happen, again? What are you feeling now about what’s on your mind?
Breathe. I feel my feelings. Feel your feelings. . . I Step Back so My Helpful Self can step in. Your Helpful Self is the LOVE in you. Let LOVE in.
Being still, I listen within to My Helpful Self. I see that I can choose to squint my vision and see stress everywhere or I can see the Helpful Presence of LOVE everywhere. Look upon your feelings with the eyes of LOVE.
Ask Your Helpful Self, “What is Safe, Kind, and Helpful now?” Your Helpful Self will point you in a helpful direction. I hear that I need lunch, step away from the computer and fold laundry, and go join the fitness center that keeps coming into my awareness.
What eyes are you using to see you today?
My Helpful Self is my True Friend because a True Friend encourages me.
