Find your Middle Ground

Find your Middle Ground is about stepping away from stressful days and anxious minds, and taking time to pause.

When we are mindful of the present moment and simply allow it to be, we open a door to our natural state of being – accepting, loving, peaceful, kind and content. Most of us are so distracted and moving so fast that we get caught up in the world of “doing” or worrying about what we should be doing next.
Too much doing and thinking disconnects us from our sense of “being”and who we really are.

I write about finding this place of connection, contentment and peace in the highs and lows of life. I call it our Middle Ground.

Namaste

    I have discovered that being in the ‘now’ means much less worry and anxiety. It’s refreshing and invigorating.

      Agreed Colleen. 💕 When we slow down and shut off the analysis and comparative thinking, the world becomes refreshing and invigorating.

    It took a long time to understand the true meaning of just Being – it is simple yet too deep, wonderful and amazing once it becomes possible.

    Thanks, Val ❤ I am sitting on my little porch, looking out on the water as birds frolic, fish jump, and I even had a little surprise visit from the otter who shows up infrequently. It is so quiet except for the sounds of nature and I needed this moment…and I needed your words. I hope you are well. I send so much light! ❤

      Thank you Lorrie for sharing your special connection with nature today. It’s a quiet day for me as well, save for the sounds of nature. Sending light and love your way … and a little breeze to keep you awake 😉
