10 Tips to Achieve Inner Balance

70DB2F2F-92F3-42E8-8AB0-D1C2FAD0D805.jpg

These are serious times…

Pandemics, lynchings…It’s all too much.

How have you been handling it all?

Are your moods shifting? Are you nervous and unsettled? Saddened by recent events?

The energy in the atmosphere is HEAVY. Parasites are feeding off of the highly charged emotion in the air. Maintaining inner balance is of the utmost importance at this time. I consistently make my mental, emotional, and physical well being a priority. There is nothing more important than my peace. Nothing. If you are struggling and in need of an emotional reset I’ve added some tips below. I hope it helps!

  1. Protect Your Energy At All Costs. Disconnect from any discussion, video, news report that elicits heavy emotion.

  2. Take time each day to center your energy. Stop, be still, and breathe. You can do this for 5 minutes per day, 10 minutes per day, however long you choose.

  3. Journal. Writing is a great way to release pent up emotion and shift energy.

  4. Pray. Call on your God and guides to support you during this time.

  5. Get outside. Get out of the house, take a walk, sit on a bench and admire nature. Don’t forget to practice social distancing.

  6. Be Creative. Sing, dance, write poetry, draw. Tap into the playfulness of the inner child.

  7. Find something to laugh at. Laughter can instantly lift your spirits.

  8. If you feel called to take action ask your ancestors and spirit guides for guidance on how to be of service. We all walk different paths. Work on determining which one is yours.

  9. Take a nap.

  10. Make Love, if you can do so safely.

Indulging in unhealthy behaviors? They are reminding you of the importance of moderation. Strive for balance in your life. Be open to love. Give love.

Take time to envision your desired outcomes. Abundance is yours for the taking. Proceed slowly. Enjoy the journey.

#3 Your ancestors are reminding you that you are strong enough to face the obstacles ahead. You are not alone. Call on them for assistance.

#1 In this moment you need to know that you have a wealth of information stored inside of your being. Spirit is saying you know the answer to the questions you pose. Tap into your high knowledge for the truth. In addition to having the answers you will also find that your blessings are connected to your knowing.

Spirit says you are loved. Never forget it. 

#2 There is or has been a great deal of fight and discord in your environment. You are tired of this negativity and are ready for a new start. I sense a weariness in you. Don't fret. Healing has arrived. In this moment you need to know that this is a time of rebirth. All you've lost will be restored. Do the work. Drop your defenses. Healing is coming to a broken relationship if you'll allow it. Ase. Spirit says you are loved. Never forget it. 

#3 In this moment you need to know to get ready for a new start. Newness is all around you. New opportunities, experiences, and relationships are coming towards you at a rapid pace. Can you feel it?

#1 Stop and breathe. This is the time to let go of what’s been stifling your progress. Aren’t you tired of not having what you desire? You’ve been a support to so many around you but don’t have much to show for it. It’s time for a change. Your consciousness is saying put yourself first. Walk away from what’s dragging you down. Go towards joy. Whatever that looks like for you. Ase.

#2 It’s time to lay your burdens down and embrace the completion of something in your environment. You’ve toiled and fought for so long. You’ve been the one holding things together. It’s time to rest, gestate and allow the birth of a new reality. Your consciousness is encouraging you to be open to the newness that is unfolding. Be vulnerable and know that you are loved and protected by a host of spirit guides. Ase.

#3 Be mindful of where you direct your energy at this time. Make choices that align with your highest vision of yourself and your life. Are you choosing low vibrational activities? Are you enmeshed in harmful relationships? Your consciousness is saying use this time wisely and make choices that support your evolution. Ase.

Relax and Rejoice...

Relax and Rejoice

What a time we find ourselves in… I am still in disbelief at this sudden turn of events. At least once a day I stop what I’m doing, shake my head and say “This sh*t is nuts”.

There is no better time to depend upon one’s faith than in times of uncertainty. This is the time to pray. This is the time to call on one’s ancestors. This is the time for ritual. This is the time for meditation. This is the time to be still and listen for guidance. In my faith, the Ifa/Orisha tradition, followers are expected to practice hopefulness at all times. No matter what the situation looks like, no matter how much fear and confusion it elicits it is the practitioners’ job to be hopeful about the future. I pray you are well in this moment. That you are encouraged and strengthened by your faith. I pray that you are choosing to be optimistic and hopeful about what’s to come. Ase!

P.S. I am happy to announce that I’m offering new services. You may contact me for Tarot and Ifa readings as well as Hand of Ifa and Orisha Icons! Interested? Contact me here >>> https://www.daydreamalston.com/stayintouch
