Quips & Tips for a Beautiful Soul
“Your soul is your essence. Who you really ae. Recognize, cherish and share it.”
– Mara
The lotus, pure and lovely in its unfoldment, grows out of muddy waters. It reminds us that though we aspire to the highest level of expression, we exist on the material plane. We are connected to the earth and all that is mundane, even as we are drawn to the sun.
Question Yourself
Who am I? Why am I here? What do I want? Promote self-inquiry. Keep a journal.
“When you change the way you feel, it changes the way you think. When you change the way you think, you change the way you deal with everything in life.“
– Sheila Burke
Create Connections
Develop friendships and activities with and around those who share your beliefs.
“The soul is placed in the body like a rough diamond, and must be polished, or the luster of it will never appear.”
– Daniel Defoe
Seek Solitude
Spend time in nature. Carve out “alone time” for yourself. Take a break from Social Media.
“There are always flowers for those who want to see them.”
– Henri Matisse
Be Compassionate
Forgive, trust and believe in yourself. Love yourself first, so that you may love others.
“Be loving; begin to perceive your inner voice and follow it.”
– Satya Sai Baba
Allow Surrender
You cannot control life. It’s good to have plans and goals. Do your best, and let it be.
“Surrender is the simple but profound wisdom of yielding to rather than opposing the flow of life.”
– Eckhart Tolle
