Practice

As the weeks of the shutdown amass and the days blend together, I’m reminded this morning of the importance of sacred practices to connect to love, God, and peace. They are beacons of light. Your sacred practices do not have to be the same ones you preferred last year. They do not have to be the same ones your friends do. They can be the ones that best fit you and your heart.

How will you know if it’s a sacred practice? It will remind you of the love that you come from and the love that you are. It will have a quality of ineffability, and it will bring you some amount of peace.

It’s easy to put a practice on the back burner when life is topsy turvy. Take some time to explore a sacred practice that brings you peace today. Some places to start:

• meditating
• writing/journaling
• praying
• reading uplifting books that resonate with you
• gardening
• walking
• cooking
• making coffee (I added that one in, but I feel it really can be sacred sometimes! #tiredmom)

Of course, all of these and more can be sacred practices. Which ones do you prefer? Just a few minutes a day can change your heart and your path. And now, more than ever, it can remind you of your true nature and take you beyond the din of the world.

All my love.
