Easy Street Values
Just as Olympians practice their sports or
skills, we must practice making life easier. "
How do we make our lives Easier? The following are
suggestions to help you walk the easy path:
1. While in bed, pause a few moments. Start the day with
ease on your mind. Set the tone for the day. Do not think about what you have
to do. Let those thoughts come later. Set your intention for the day: "Today is
an easy day. I release all need for suffering and drama, and I choose ease
along the way. Today is filled with expectancy for good. I open to unexpected
delights and ease-filled moments of deep revelation."
2. When listening to others, adopt an easy attitude. Don't
listen with the intent of fixing his/her problem. Most people need emotional
support, not problem solving. If they are complaining about you, give up
defense and just listen to them. If you know you have wronged someone, admit
your thoughtlessness and say you are sorry. If you know he/she is looking at
things through insecurities, reply: "I know you feel bad. I love (I respect /
support / etc.) you. I don't see it that way, but I can see that you are upset,
and I'm here for you."
3. Think of pleasurable experiences and feelings.
Intentionally focus on the things you like and want and what you would like to
do.
4. Quit expecting people to know what you want. Ask for what
you need and want. Be willing to hear and accept "yes" or "no".
5. Give up blaming
and being cynical.
7. Don't give feedback unless asked. Unsolicited feedback is
often more about pointing out flaws, needing to be needed or showing up as brilliant, rather than offering constructive alternatives. Feedback is a trigger to unhealed shame‑based
feelings. Feedback will get you in trouble. Trust me. When someone asks me if I'm open to feedback, I cringe.
8. Practice Allowing. Let go. Surrender. Quit thinking about
the problem.
Easy Does It
Struggle, pain and drama, too,
Keep the mind in quite a stew.
Stress and worry don't do well;
They make your life a living hell.
Easy does it is the way
To feel good throughout the day.
Ease will make your burdens light,
Heal your wounds and bring delight.
Have a
great day and remember the eight word miracle mantra. "Everything can
be easy or at least easier"
Happy
Vernal Equinox Day
Today
our nights and days are equal. It is a day of natural balance and
nature calls us into that balance. Can you hear her call? It's in our
intuition, that draw we have to do or un-do something a little out of
the ordinary.
If
you tend to play and never get important tasks completed, then get out
that "to do" list and balance your resting and productivity quotients.
The typical western mind set tends to run on productivity. We spend
hours doing useless activity rather than resting in a state we call
being unproductive. We think we
have to earn our right to exist. When we allow our minds to go deep
into that which lies beyond doing and undoing, we find that our ability
to discern what needs to be left off and what needs to be accomplished
is fortified by an intuitive wisdom.
Hardaholics
make life hard and suffer about it. The difficulties are accomplished
through mental magic, and it's black magic. Balance brings harmony and
takes us off the wheel of endless doing. So take a break, doodle, buy
some flowers, sniff some essential oils, yet also pay homage to the
things that need to be done - things that make your lives easier.
Balance is a call to sanity. Today everything in life supports balance.
Tune in, now and don't forget the eight word miracle mantra, "Everything
can be easy or even easier."Join the EZosophist Movement.
