Beloved Presence

View Original

I am.

This is the most profound statement of Universal Presence. It is the Declaration of Intent to Exist

To BE.  

Stand in front of a mirror and look yourself in the eye and repeat "I am".

Then feel the feelings. 

Stand in front of a mirror and look yourself in the eye and say "I love you" - and mean it.

Then feel the feelings. 

These two exercises have been the most profoundly life-changing experiences for me in my life. It shifted the power of self-love and existence from an external locus to an internal one. It shifted the presence of caregiving and permission from external to internal. It shifted the source of my well-being to within myself. 

Work with a mirror in this way, when you can. 

Truth be told it took me a couple weeks to not burst into tears every time I tried to give myself unconditional love. 

Try it. Maybe have some tissue handy.
