This time, I wanted to start the week off with a suggestion for each of you. Over the years, I have always collected quotes. I remember giving and receiving a ‘quote book’ in high school, and it was a big deal. In fact, I recently came across one given to me by my good friend, Sarah. It’s awesome to look back onto the words that I once found inspiring, and remember the feelings associated with them. Such a wonderful way to spend a few minutes in the day. And that brings me back to today and this week. To follow are a bunch of quotes that have resonated with me over the past 6 months. Here’s my suggestion for you:
Read the quotes, and see if any of them resonate with you. Then pick the one that “hits” you the most, and simply read it again. Think about it and pause long enough to know how it feels in your body as you read it. Then, if you like – carry it with you throughout the week. Journal about it, or just share it with a loved one. There’s a reason the quote you chose is speaking to you at this point in time. Honor your intuition, and follow it through to the end. You may be deliciously surprised by what pops up, when you let things go.
In Love and Light,
Martina
