Practices to end my suffering

I was reading about this in my Meditations from the Mat book this week. (I know I keep talking about that book– b/c I LOVE IT! )

It is so true–  I do these things to end my suffering, I do these things to keep me sane, healthy and happy:

• daily prayer

• meditation

• journaling gratitude

• yoga asana

• morning smoothies

• morning lake walks and/or  bike rides

• talking with dear friends to really share about life

• EFT Tapping when I am distressed emotionally or physically

• did I mention prayer?

• being choosey about what I read, watch and listen to each day

• trying to eat mostly healthy food and drink lots of water (I am not ready to give up french fries!)

• being creative in some way

I have learned that many of these foundational practices, as Lezlie Laws calls them, help me set my compass in the right direction. I am heading in the direction that God would have me go- I am then more aligned with the God in me.

Some of these things are daily, but all are things I do each week. I have realized I have to take care of me if I am of any use in this world to others.  Please, think about how you are caring for YOU. Your well-being matters.  We are all interconnected.

Namaste- Peace be with you!
