InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration
February 6, 2024
The focus for today is:
For grounding and anchoring, I spend extended time outdoors,
in places with strong, supportive, nourishing energy.
Today's inspiration was written by Nancy Windheart:
When I feel myself losing my center, my "hawk's eye vision," my grounding and anchoring, I know I need to spend some extended time outdoors, in places with strong, supportive, nourishing energy.
One Sunday, as I sat perched on a rock high above the river, I watched first a few ducks, then a flock of geese, feeding in an eddy, floating peacefully downstream, calling to their friends. I could feel that, while they are aware of the human world, and affected by it in certain ways, it was such a small part of their reality and awareness. Their daily lives are peaceful, connected, joyful, and satisfying.
What a wonderful teaching and reminder this was for me... to keep my focus on joy, connection, the matters of daily life; allowing the outer world events to take their rightful place in my awareness—not ignoring them completely, or denying them, but also not allowing them to take a bigger place in my life and awareness than is necessary or helpful.
