Allowing Our
Light to Shine - Removing Obstructions
When we
remove obstructions in our path our light can more easily come forth.
There are
times when we may not feel at our best & brightest. At those times we can
take a look at what we might do to let our inner light shine to the fullest.
Because we are physical, mental & spiritual beings, we need to determine
where our spiritual light is being filtered or blocked. We can work from the
outside inward, knowing that we are the only ones with the power to dim our
lights & as we clear away the layers we can get out of our own way to feel
the warmth of our own light shining again.
As vehicles
for our mind & soul, our bodies require proper maintenance. Caring for
ourselves is like polishing--helping to clear away the accumulation of physical
debris that keeps us from operating at our fullest capacity. A simple shift in
our thoughts can positively affect our mental state, moving from complaints to
gratitude & applying the powerful light of love to any shadowy thoughts. A
change of scenery can allow us to see the world in new ways too.
Once we are
free of our restrictions, we can become still & connect to the power at the
center of our being. It is always there for us, but when we forget to connect,
or siphon our power in too many directions, we cannot make the most of our
energy. Starting from the inside out may direct us to take the right steps for
our journeys back to the light, but sometimes it can be difficult to find the
stillness if our bodies & minds are in the way. As we practice steps to
keep our energy flowing freely & without obstruction, we shine our light
brightly, illuminating our own paths & making the world around us glow as
well.
