Not all days are easy. Not all days are cheerful. Not all days are in flow. Some days are filled with pain. Some days are really fearful. Some days are more difficult than others. But what if it’s not all that? What if there is both and more? A beautiful song in the middle of pain. A warm hug that lessens fears grip. Something flowing really smoothly while other things just don’t work. There is no either or. Both and more.
My book is sure having a revival in my life and it will here too. Translation to Swedish is almost finished - read more about it in my latest blog post at www.bestofyou.se. I’ve decided to not change anything to the original text because it actually holds. I’ve developed and learned a lot in the past year but the lessons and tools of the book really feels everlasting. I’m so excited to share more about it! (The English version is of course still available at www.helenaonneby.com)
Whatever path you’re on, meditation can be your companion. Someone asked me the other day; what’s your most important tool for healing? Meditation was my answer. It’s not about what happens as I sit, it’s what spills out into the rest of my life. 🌿 Meditation helps me remember to not believe in all my thoughts 🌿 Meditation increases the space between what happens to me and how I CHOOSE to react 🌿 Daily meditation activates the parasympathetic nervous system and the body’s self-healing abilities 🌿 Meditation increases my gratitude muscle 🌿 Meditation makes me connect to my inner guidance system 🌿 Meditation takes me back to now, where I have all the power, and much, much more... Do you meditate on the regular? Do you want me to talk more about it here?
One of the best tricks in the book is a rampage of appreciation, it always fills my heart with so much warmth and joy. Take out a piece of paper or notes on your phone and get to it. Minimum one page, preferably three. All the things. Check out my current story for some examples of all the things I appreciate right now. If it’s tricky at first, I promise you, it’ll soon get easier. What you focus on grows. You can train your mind. What do you appreciate right now?
