It’s Like Plugging In
Imagine you were running on life force energy called Love and all you had to do to keep yourself going is plug-in to the source of that Love.
Wouldn’t that be beautiful?
When I imagine what it would look like, I see this Love in the form of the sun shining and a huge rainbow over green lush fields, full of flowers and bunnies and butterflies ;-)
Super kitsch, I know, but I guess it comes from watching Disney movies teaching us what Happy looks like…
When I put myself in that imagined picture, I see myself feeling happy and vibrant. Laughing, giggling and full of energy, running in this beautiful sunny field, full of flowers.
Even if in reality, I’m actually feeling tired or worried about money or my kids or the state of the world or anything like that…
In that field - I feel refreshed.
I feel ready.
I feel like there’s no judgment. Not even self-judgment ;-)
It’s my Love Bubble.
And when I do the things that I LOVE doing, it feels like I’m literally plugging into that Love and everything else can wait.
Usually that good feeling lasts for a while, but you know what? Sometimes it doesn’t and I get straight back into everything that’s annoying to me, AND IT WAS STILL WORTH IT. Because at least, I got A moment, where everything felt shining and bright.
When I get on my yoga mat I let myself forget about anything that's going on outside of it, and focus on what I'm doing at that moment. It helps me to plug into my Love Bubble. I always feel so. much. better afterwards.
When I sit for meditation, I do the same and give myself a moment to walk past the restlessness and resistance, so I can arrive at that feeling of ‘plugging in’ to the Love source. The more I do it the easier it becomes to let go and surrender into my bubble.
When I dance, I feel - in the zone - and tuned in to the flow of life. It makes me feel happy and I can feel myself giving and receiving love as I move.
When I do these things that connect me with feeling good regardless of what’s happening outside of me, everything is always working out so much better.
That’s why it’s a priority to do SOMETHING that gets you into this Love Bubble, regularly, even if only for a moment. Because when you’re plugged in and that Love is shining through you, it affects everyone around you for the better, and together we make this world shine brighter and brighter for everyone.
What makes YOU feel ‘connected’ or ‘plugged in’? I’d love to know xoMiri
