I do what lights me up

Mental Health Mantra 24/365

Today I went to the storage unit where our home contents have been stored since August 2019. Long story but it was only meant to be for 4 weeks and the circumstances, grief and drama, that followed could not be made up by any Coronation Street scriptwriter.   I had to give the key to the Manager and we went to have a look inside and whilst there, I picked up a big basket bag of mine and a curver box with a lid. Both items that held things from my studio, which I haven't seen in 18 months.

Unpacking them and saying hello to things that were in my studio felt like I was unearthing a time machine. I sat fondly looking through sketch books, affirmation books, diaries, I found my tibetan singing bowl, my inking pen, a framed Muse Mantra, plus a new stash of watercolour paper. 

I felt lit up. 
I felt abundant.
​

 I sat quietly looking through my small brown affirmation book and found this  <<<

I do what lights me up.

and then a bit further on:

Make a list of the things that light you up.
Make a list of the things you do every day.
Compare the lists.
Adjust accordingly.

This is something I am going to do later.  Let me know if you do it too?

Because when I unpacked just these 2 containers, I could see what lights me up.... right there, in front of my eyes.

Can we spend at least 10% of our day doing something that lights us up?

If we can, we may begin to feel a little calmer. 

Whatever that means for you.... maybe singing a song all the way through, learning to bake something or stretching out. Start with 10%.

I have been doing my upmost to shift this and vibrate on a frequency that is higher than the one we are seeing.  Lighting up ourselves, individually has a huge knock on effect.  Don't let anyone tell you that your light energy contribution doesn't matter as it won't change anything. 

It does and it will.

Keep shining that light sunbeams.
