Enhance Your Energy

When we focus on flaws, the problem gets bigger, and the energy for dealing with it gets smaller. When we focus on the existence of basic goodness, the energy for positive change is enhanced.
Yogacharya Ellen Grace O'Brian 

In this time of turmoil in the world, most of what we hear in the news is all the negative. Although we want and need to know what is happening in the world, it can cause a lot of anxiety and stress. That stress leads to physical, emotional and mental dis-ease and depletes our energy. When we allow ourselves to only focus on that, that is all that we experience. It takes some work, but taking some time each day to see the positive gifts all around us keeps us physically healthier, mentally stronger and spiritually enriched. All we need to do is spend some time in nature, slow down and really take in the beauty of what we see—even just a walk around the block looking at the neighbor's gardens. When our outlook is positive, we can radiate that out to others and affect the world view. Our meditation practice slows us down and offers an opportunity to create positive changes in our bodies and minds and allows us to get in touch with Reality, which is only good. Our positive energy levels increase. Focus on basic goodness and create positive energy.
