Accepting Ourselves Bit by Bit

We might have someone direct criticism at us. It can happen. In how we react we can gain deeper awareness of ourselves. Then, however we react we can make that ok. We can see what habits of thought are operating in this moment and then shift as we have new insight.

Feeling Good About Self

We love to receive praise from our loved ones, our bosses, our professional societies and more. That recognition feels good! As we experience the Source Love always inside us, we find happiness and satisfaction on our own. We feel less needy for appreciation from others.

Blessings from Unwanted Body Blip

We want to notice the flowing Good around us. Yes, it is more challenging when some part of our body feels uncomfortable. We can focus more carefully, putting attention on what we can enjoy and learn right now. We can experience so many blessings as we choose to shift our attention to appreciation.

Grow Our Power

We have been deeply trained to monitor ourselves for our transgressions; watch for our breaking rules, etc.
At a certain incident, we may notice ourselves flooded with uncomfortable feelings of fear, loathing, anger and more.

Belated Thank You Appreciated

We value one another more than it may seem on the surface. Below an illustration of how one woman received an opportunity to express gratitude for several kind acts done for her 10 years ago. All benefited.

Reboot Self Blame

We can choose to think as positively as we can. Yes, the process will involve noticing some upsets, negative thinking and all that. Best way to proceed is to notice ( it can feel overwhelming) and to keep going anyway.

Mind on Good

We can live our lives noticing what is going well. This practice includes observing the wonders of “everyday” phenomenon: the beauty of the trees without leaves, the raindrops on branches, the crisp chill of the air. The wonders of how our body moves and heals. So much.
And letting go of annoyances, grievances, stumbling blocks and stubbing our toe.
