Deep Dive

sharing by mary

I have heard all my life about how someone loves me, or the words, “I love
you,” or I am LOVED, etc., One morning in 2017 with a mind full of racing
thoughts and seeking Peace of Mind, I heard within,

Stop trying so hard,
just let LOVE, love you.
I about fell off the couch!

When it comes to our inner life, sometimes we stand on the shore, maybe dip
our feet in shallow water, walk into waist-high waters, sail out beyond the sight
of dry land, and perhaps take a Deep Dive. With my inner life (and probably
outer life as well), MUCH to my surprise, the deepest dive I have yet to take is SAYING WITHIN,

LET LOVE LOVE ME

Now more than ever I am fascinated by this practice of 
Letting LOVE, Love me
in which, ironically, thoughts of “me” disappear, which is a relief, right,
because “me” is the problem!

Practicing this led to the creation of our Pause For LOVE Practice (below).
I now practice this daily and much to my surprise it is having a direct, truly
helpful impact on how my day goes! The inner guidance I receive ranges from
detailed (call this person now) to a reminder that I have choices, to choosing
calm, to be direct in communication, and to an awareness of a Gentle Peace.

Potential Useful Results
(don’t take my word for it ~ see for yourself)

Things I saw as problems I can see without the “problems” label.

Resolution of what I saw as “problems” comes easier.

Direction with priorities is provided in the next steps of my day.

Unhelpful judgments of others and self-sabotage fall away.

Worry and anxiety are replaced with a relaxed mindset.

Connecting with friends, family, and strangers is a valuable use of time.

I step outside and breathe the air.

What are you waiting for?
