A very big aloha.
My name is Reverend Cindy Paulus and it's kind of windy out here today.
Of course I live in a windy place and I've been pondering a lot about this process of life and learning which seems to go for me on and on and on every day.
I seem to have new revelations and new understandings and new ways of seeing things in my life.
It's quite an amazing journey actually and of course I love to go inside in meditation and just be still and be in that presence and at that point I don't ponder,
I just try to be still and to look within and to allow that energy that is there within to be present.
It's been a lifelong process for me and even that process continues to amaze me.
I just love the idea of being able to be quiet,
To take your deep deep breaths,
Breathing in,
Breathing out and just allowing that inner self to come and be with you,
Just to be present with you.
We get so very busy in life that we're not aware of that amazing gift that is going on when we are still and can connect with our inner self,
Our true self and our higher self.
When we allow that to happen,
A certain understanding and peace comes.
It's a great gift and it's so powerful.
Even when I sometimes don't know what is going to be there,
What's going to come or how it's going to feel,
I always sense this presence that is there just waiting,
Just waiting for a moment to be quiet and to be still and to be aware of it.
It's truly,
To me,
One of the greatest gifts in life is to be able to just go inside and to be still and to find that peace that speaks to you within.
When you do that and when you make a practice of doing that on a regular basis,
You find that there's this inner teacher,
There's this journey that you take that continues to allow you to understand what's going on,
What's going on within.
That's why I always encourage everyone to take a few moments.
Now,
I understand a lot of people are very busy,
So I always get up at 4 in the morning.
At that time,
I don't have that many people sending me texts.
I have friends on the East Coast that will start in the morning,
But it's pretty much a quiet time.
In that time,
It's just like,
Okay,
This is my sacred quiet time to go within.
Now,
I hope you can find a time that you can make it a regular process and basis to allow yourself that great gift.
Now,
It's good to,
I think,
Also take a few moments on halfway through the day around noon and just kind of do a moment or two of breathing and reflection on what's been happening.
It's always nice at the end of your day before you go to sleep that you reflect back on what you may have learned during that day or perceptions you may have had.
It's a beautiful journey.
It really is in life.
It's not that complicated,
But it's pretty amazing how we can make things pretty complicated.
I encourage you,
I really,
From my heart,
Encourage you with love to find that peace and that love within.
And I thank you so very much,
So very much for having that amazing gift to be able to explore and find what you need within.
I'm going to play a piece that I did for you.
Softly breathe the mists of the mystic river that calm the fires of the mind.
The time has come to restore all the waves of energy and release what's happened in the barrage of time and the illusions that you can't quite define.
Breathe in the sweetness of relief that comes from the shores of the sacred waters that flow.
Quiet the soul and breathe in the peace now and let everything else just go.
Reach the silence,
Still the waters,
Hear the sacred sounds of healing begin as all the elements come into balance of being renewed and restored again.
In a moment of perfect peace,
You can be with the guardian angels here and let the path and all that's led you here just go and believe in the blessings of being in that perfect healing place of love.
