The Sanctuary Within

Although accessing your inner self may feel like stumbling upon, rather than purposefully entering, the beautiful cave of your sanctuary, it is available to you at all times.

The walk on a wooded path—in physicality or in your mind’s eye—or the gentle allowance of yourself to float to another dimension through imagination, are doorways into this space. Like a daydreaming child in a classroom, this is the portal to your inner peace.

Allowing yourself to wander freely in this realm gives you the freedom to go and feel however you may desire. If you find yourself in a situation that is not what you want, go within. If you wish to expand on the experience you are having, go within.

It is the answer whenever you are wanting to move toward a different life experience. Notice we didn’t say away from a life experience. You cannot back away from anything while your focused attention remains on the unwanted—that is what will grow or remain. Instead, turn your focus—your gaze, your mind, even the very next thought—toward what is wanted, without judgment, in order to move into the flow of your desires.

One breath, one thought at a time. This is enough to begin shifting momentum. The engine of change will take over as you allow. Turn to the sun, turn to the flower, notice the beautiful things in your day, your life, your experience. By doing so, you open yourself to more of the same.
