Power of Mindful Prayers
I simply marvel at the power of our thoughts-and how they produce results. With that being said, are you monitoring your thoughts in a positive direction? I study deeper parts of my mind. I like to carve out time to reflect, to ponder, and to simply be. When we are in a re-active place, things can get crazy. As I strip away the layers of my mind, I can only then get more “mindful”. You may ask what is that? Well the best answer for me, is that “mindfulness”, is that place inside me where I am not reacting, and not judging. It is a calm place of observation. Like exercising a muscle, this place inside us, gets stronger as you give it your attention. As we let go of opinions, egos, and what we think we believe. Then I can allow myself my prayer time. What is prayer? What are affirmations? For me, they are statements of what I believe to be true.
A prayer of petition, cannot produce the results of a prayer affirmed in one’s truth. Meaning when we come from a state of wanting, we are coming from lacking. As opposed to coming from a thankful place of inner knowing that whatever is presenting itself can turn around, and sometimes with the least effort when we are rooted in faith. Prayer for me is simply getting stronger with my faith and my self-talk. When we have contrast in those areas, it just produces more conflict. Our thoughts and beliefs should match our intentions. All it takes sometimes is a gentle shift in awareness. Take moments for loving, peaceful, powerful thoughts. Allow them to replace the negative feelings or self-talk. See what this produces. See how you feel.
The eyes and the thighs…these areas have always been a concern of mine. I have been obsessed with eye cream since my early 20s. Perhaps it has been a blessing. People ask me all the time…why do I need an eye cream? The delicate tissue that surrounds the eye area does not have any oil glands, therefor it is more delicate, and requires a different composition of ingredients, as opposed to the rest of the face. In protecting and adding key ingredients, you can actually strengthen the area and diminish fine lines and wrinkles. I prefer a rotation wheel of eye cream. Each time I finish one of my creams, I then rotate and bring in different ingredients in order to increase my absorption. My new Favorite for increasing the firmness of the skin on my body has been the Kayo Body Line. Medical grade body care! I have been able to re-texturize the skin on my arms, chest, and legs… technology at its best! Peace and blessings.
