Discover Peace in any Moment



Blessings everyone,

In recent workshops and at our Fall retreat a strong message came through from higher guidance. I wanted to share this message with anyone who feels challenged right now. My hope is that you will discover that you have the power within you and all around you to find peace in any moment, no matter what you are faced with.

Pause for a moment and take a deep breath.

Now, reflect on a situation in your life that's upsetting you the most. It may be physical, emotional or financial or it could be related to a relationship or your job. Take a moment and notice what you are feeling in your body as you think about this.

Now, ask yourself, how much time and energy have I spent on this issue?

Are you ready to discover and create a feeling of peace? Then take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Am I OK in this moment, right here and right now?” Notice what you feel in your body when you answer this question.

The truth is, you can never not be OK. Even when you take your last breath, you will still be OK.

I watched Oprah the first week in January when she started the “Best Life” series. There was a woman on her show who invested everything into a new business and she felt hopeless thinking they were going to lose everything they worked for and dreamed of. Oprah stopped her as she continued to focus on everything that was wrong in her life and she asked her, “Are you still breathing?” The woman replied, “Yes” and then Oprah said, “Be grateful than and realize you’re still OK.

When you are not experiencing peace than most likely your thoughts are dwelling on something that happened in your past or you are focused on your future thoughts which might be saying "what if?"

You have the power within you to create peace in any moment no matter what the circumstances are. Just ask yourself the simple question, “Am I OK in this moment, right here and right now?”

If you feel lost and you cannot answer yes to this question, than call out and ask the angels for help. Ask them to surround you in a circle of light love and protection. Then pray (or plead if you need to) and ask them to help you feel peace.

You are never alone if you believe in spiritual family; angels, guides and loved ones in Spirit. Remember to ask for the courage, strength and the help you need to move forward in any challenge. Believe that everything is happening for a reason and seek to learn the lesson or find the blessing. Use your breath as a guide, it’s your Spirit and it can always guide you back into the present moment where the gift of peace is found. So remember to breathe.
