Love Over Fear

I sit here in 2020 on Halloween, full moon, time change and the eve of an election. It is easy to slip into fear and allow the fear to take over our thoughts and our lives. But what if we stayed fast and true to the idea of choosing love over fear. Take a moment and think about the word YES. Close your eyes and feel it in your whole body. What do you feel? Now do the same with the word NO. Sit with it. What do you feel? When we resonate with the word yes, we are more open and receptive. We raise our vibrational energy. When we sit with the word no, it feels hard and restrictive. Smaller in some way. So take time today to sit and be open. Feel the word YES no matter what you are thinking or what situation you are in.

Now tie this to Quantam theories that say what we think about and ruminate on we create. If we are sitting at home afraid of the outcome of the election, afraid of getting sick, afraid of xyz; what if we are actually creating that reality? What if instead we collectively imagined a world where we wake up and a leader has been elected that restores our hope and faith in people, humanity, equal rights for our black brothers and sisters and LGBTQ+ family members? How does that feel? Sit with that feeling and keep that image in your heart. Sit with that feeling that we can trust our Democracy to create a balance of power in Washington, D.C.

The last piece of this is that we often cannot move on until we have learned what we need to know. Can you thank these last few years for helping us see what we’ve been blind to? For helping us not take our Democracy for granted? Sit with that feeling of YES, we have learned so very much these last four years and now we are free to let it go. We can thank President Trump for his time, for this awakening us to civil and equal rights for all, for awakening us to systemic racism, voter suppression, not taking science for granted. We need to say thank you and move forward.

Let go of the energy of no / fear and step into the energy of yes / love. It is time to raise the bar physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually for ourselves and all those we love.
