    May your mind be as pure as your heart.

    And when it is not…


    May the pureness of your heart nourish your mind’s troubles.


    In many modern day spiritual teachings we are told to pay no attention to our thoughts.  That they are not who we really are.  That they are deceitful and that we should turn away from them in favour of aligning with love.  


    I would like to offer a different perspective.  The perspective that our mind is a part of our human experience.  And to the reject the mind is to reject a part of ourselves.


    Whenever we reject a part of ourselves, and the reason is always as some form of protection, we only create more separation within our human experience.  Us vs them, me vs you, my mind vs my Soul.


    This is just one of those funny things we do as humans.  For some reason, a part of the deal about being here is to experience this separation.  Only Source truly knows the purpose of this and what it is leading us towards.


    In the meantime, consider this - that rejecting the mind in favour of love is causing us to miss out on some really beautiful moments for healing.


    Those repetitive thoughts, the worrisome, shameful, critical, uncomfortable and even disturbing thoughts, are nothing more than the part of you that is calling out for love.  To be seen, heard and understood.  


    I would like to offer you this as an alternative - instead of turning AWAY from your thoughts in favour of love, what if you turned TOWARDS those same thoughts, and loved them up?


    This is wholeness.  To have love for ALL that is.


    It is no easy task!  It usually takes several human lifetime’s and many trips around the sun to grow in to this.  So please, be patient with yourself.  This is not a destination as much as it is a practice.


    To be in the practice of turning towards ourselves, with love, every day.


    What thoughts have you either been playing on repeat or pushing away out of fear they make you a bad person?  Can you offer this part of yourself the gift of grace today?  Take a pause and reeeeallly, listen. What nourishing words of love does this part of you need to hear right now?  Can you offer yourself this nourishment, with love, every day?


    May the pureness of your heart nourish your mind’s troubles.


    With Love,
    Kristen
