Take a rest.

I am reminded this morning that it is okay to slow down, take a rest, and reconnect with the Divine.

Many spiritual practices encourage people to be conscious in all that they do: washing dishes, vacuuming, reading, walking, visiting with others, and other activities.

Being conscious means, I release all other thoughts and focus only on the current moment.

There is no past or future only the present and generous moment.

When I do find myself mentally wondering off, I stop, breathe, reset, and appreciate the present moment and activity.

I have felt more peaceful more often and I have found greater enjoyment in the most basic activities.

May each of you allow yourself the gift of taking a rest.

You are Love and Loved.
