Finding Peace

So often, we tell ourselves we will feel peaceful when the pressure lifts, the problem is solved, or life finally settles down. But inner peace is not only a future destination—it is a practice we can return to in the present. In this reflection, I share a gentle reminder to pause, breathe, and step into the perspective of the observer within. 

*** 

Do you wait for something to change before you allow yourself to take a deep breath and feel peaceful?

We tell ourselves we will relax when our problems or daily circumstances change—more money, a new job, a different relationship. 

But what if peace is not something we find but something we practice in the middle of uncertainty?

Many of us have found that quiet place within that is separate and independent from the madness in our outside world. When I began conversing with my Observer, my Witness, she showed me how to step aside and observe the mess without becoming that chaos. 

The next time you feel overwhelmed, stop for a moment. Take a slow breath. Put your attention on this moment—not yesterday, not tomorrow, but right here, right now. That is where you can find your observer.

Start a conversation with your witness by asking what is happening right now. 

When I do this, I often discover that this moment is not as frightening as the story my mind was creating about what might happen next.

You don’t have to solve your entire life’s problems today. You don’t have to know what comes next.

Sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is simply breathe, let go of the need to control everything, and trust that you will meet tomorrow when it arrives.

Peace is not waiting for you somewhere in the future. It is already here, and you hold the keys within.

Monroe Institute Interview

An Interview with Candice Sanderson by Allyn Evans Like many who attend programs at The Monroe Institute (TMI), Candice  “Candie” Sanderson, author of The Reluctant  Messenger: Tales from Beyond Belief,  discovered it is personal experience that transforms us. After that, we  are no longer defined by other people’s stories. In the comfortable dining room of her beachfront home in Naples, Florida, Candie and I  sat down to discuss her journey as a new author. Her book, which became an Amazon best seller  in its first week of publication, details messages     that she began to receive after attending TMI’s  Lifeline   program. Lifeline,   a weeklong residential program, gives participants the skills and experience to be of service to those still in physical form, as well as others who have transitioned to the nonphysical and who desire assistance. Candie spoke of her experience at   Lifeline : I could not beli...

March 16, 2018: Morning Meditation at Goddess I Am, Naples, FL, Star Seeds My vision in my mind's eye began a couple of hours before the meditation. I realized this was a "heads up" of what was to come. When I arrived at Goddess I Am, I took a seat and the vision continued before the meditation began. I saw divine sparks falling from the cosmos. These were tiny stars or seeds of light that fell into the waters of Earth. Some were crystal clear, others were pink. As they splashed into the oceans of Mother Earth, they created ripples across Gaia's surface. As each divine spark landed in the waters of emotion, more splashes were created. I then saw a slow-motion video of a rock or stone being dropped in a still body of water. As the stone plummeted beneath the water's surface, drops from the surface were hurled into the air. As the tossed droplets reversed direction and rained on the waters of Earth, the cycle repeated. It was a beautiful sight to ...
