Sometimes we don’t see the damage to our roots or the foundational core of our being until we’ve fallen or become visibly “cut down.”

It’s up to each of us to decide to lay where we’ve fallen to rot and decay away from whom we know we are Divinely, or to get up and walk into the space we know is ours to hold in the world... for ourselves and for one another. 

Don't be another ”Dead Man Walking” as sung by: Jeremy Camp. 

When we are born, we have all the freedoms and possibilities of God’s amazing imagination and planning for our lives. 

How many times do we need to get to a point of feeling like we’ve been dragged down, weighed down, pushed, pulled, twisted, or entwined with the “weight of the world” or others within our inner circles, before we realize we’ve done it for so long we no longer remember where we knew our lives were meant to go; and we’ve lost the essential BEauty God planted within us? 

Let’s have the courage to cut the vines and branches weighing down, burdening, and preventing our inner Light to shine from the depths of our souls, as God intended. 

Let's all begin singing ”The Breakup Song,” by:  Francesca Battistelli! 

At first glance, some things may not seem so detrimental.  Take the first picture, which merely looks as if the smaller tree is providing some minor support for the larger tree. 

Upon closer inspection of the second picture from a different angle, we see the larger tree’s need was so much greater than the other tree had resources to provide, in keeping it aloft. 

Just as we humans tend to want to “rescue” fellow humans, despite knowing we lack the strength or capabilities at times by giving from wells not refilled enough or vast enough to draw from for the other’s needs... we can permit the uprooting of our inner peace and souls. 

It’s okay to say “No.”  It’s okay to make self-care a priority.  No, it is ESSENTIAL to make and take time for self-care. 

It’s better for everyone when we stop avoiding that “Little Voice Inside,” as Jaci Velasquez, sings so eloquently. 

On our morning constitutionals, we love to just be present with nature and listen to her telling her life stories, listening to her songs… learning of the wisdom of her life stories. We see how some trees struggle to remain upright, leaning on one another, sometimes to the detriment of the durability or endurance of that supportive tree to maintain its full strength… or full-uprightness. Conversely, we see when the tree releases its clinging to its old way of life… it often creates a flourishing biome for a plethora of new life, of varying species or phylum.  

Imagine the BEauty and bounty we might create within our own lives, if we release our own need to hang onto the old, the dead, the dying portions of our lives. We cannot create or welcome the new Blessings created for us with each new season of our lives, if we cannot, or refuse to let go of things no longer meant to accompany or support us in welcoming the changing seasons of our lives. Within ourselves, we can release the old in order to more fully welcome the next generation of BEautiful sprouts, blossoms, and bloom into the greatest portions of our amazing life journeys.  

If you, too, want or need encouragement or support in releasing your old, in preparation of greeting and more fully entering your own “spring awakening,” we invite you to visit the music section of our website to purchase our River of Release meditation which contains lovely supportive sound healing implements graciously narrated and provided by a sound healing expert and energy worker, Linda Alario, in our effort to help release the stuck energy in our lives, and work towards collectively raising the vibrational energy within the greater world. Thank you for Blessing our lives, with your time and consideration of our messages, whether through reading our blogs, or purchasing and appreciating our music.

Often in life, we fear that which we do not understand. Sometimes, we don’t even know everything that we do not understand; because we don’t know… what we don’t know!  

We can ask for help; but often, only if we feel we know what help to ask to receive. When we don’t even know where to begin; because we feel we’ve asked for everything we know to ask about with regards to help… sometimes… it leads to death. Too often, relationship death, mental death, soul death, spiritual death, and if not addressed soon enough… perhaps physical death.  

It’s up to us to monitor the levels of our health in all of these arenas… and to make the adjustments needed for optimal health for us and each of our relationships. 

We need to not fear letting go of things or people that are meant to be seasonal in our lives. Whether it is our jobs, our spiritual homes or practices, our physical fitness routines, our nutritional health practices, our creative outlets, or our relationships with others. If we are to learn and grow, as we are here to do, we need to not be stuck in the mindset of controlling or hanging onto things that we need to release… in order to make room to welcome the next gifts we are to receive for the next portion of our Divine journey. Sometimes, in order to not die… we must let go, to let... growth!
